The train carrying the newspapers
pulled into the station at 8 :35 A. NJ
The engine was unlocked and went
further down the tracks, so that the
newspaper wagons could back upon the

train. The work of transferring the
bundles of newspapers was going on
when the engine, without any whistle
of warning, 1t is said. bore down on
the wagons. crushing them to bits and
killing the three men.
Harry Barnett, another newsdealer,
said he had just leaned down to pick
bundle Of papers off the track when
he happened to look up and saw the
headlight of the engine through the
fog. He yelled a warning and jumped
for his life. but the others had no time
to escape.
The charge against the engineer and
fireman Is that they failed to blow the
whistle when they approached the Bangs

Diues 200 Feet From Airplane
to Bottom of Sea and LiUes

Special Dispatch TO THE New YoRK HEn.tD.
AsBuRY PARK. July 4.--Charles N.
Fitzgerald. an aerial stunt performer,
dlved into the Atlantic Ocean to-day
from an airplane at an altitude OF 200
feet. The plane was piloted by Jack
Casey of Red Bank and the plan was
to drop a rope to Fitzgerald after
he had come to the surface OF
the water. so he might climb back
into the plane. AS II turned out the
diver was unconscious when he came
up and had to be taken ashore in a
rowboat and to the beach hospital for
treatment.
For nearly an hour before Fltz-
gerald made the dive the flying ma
chine In which he was riding circled

The New York herald., 1922-07-05

Fitzgerald was climbing from the up
per to the lower plane and doing other
stunts, such as hanging by his legs
head down. Persons who had wit
messed the stunt said the airplane did
not seem to be more than 100 feet off
the ground when Fitzgerald made the
dive, but the pilot said his meter
registered more than 200 feet.
Fitzgerald landed on his left shoul-
der. and, he said afterward, he touched
bottom, which was thirty-five feet be-
low the surface. A rowboat was
near by when he came up and he was
dragged into II. The diver was re-
vived at the beach hotel by DR.. r w
Marren and was taken to his hotel,
apparently none the worse for the
dive.
