MAN RUN over
HERE BY TRAIN
SUNDAY NIGHT
Body Of Jose Pena Pick
ed Up After Train is
Unloaded; No Eye
Witnesses to Tragedy

Jose G. Pena, 30, was killed last
night when he was run over by the
10:15 passenger train into Brownsville.
the accident happening in the yard of
the Gulf Coast Lines here, between the
station and the International Bridge.
The body was found shortly otter
10:30 when the yard man took the en-
CINE out toward the bridge after the
train had been unloaded, as no one
saw the man when he was run over.
The left arm was severed and the body
badly crushed.
Jose Pena was born in Brownsville
and spent his entire life here. He was
bricklayer and lived with his sister
and her husband in the .Ramirena Bend
west of Brownsville.
Pena made habit of crossing the
track on his way back home from Santa
Cruz, where he went at times, his sis
ter, Mrs. Juana Pena Gonzales, said.
He was probably on his way home at
the time of the accident, and due to
the wet condition of the track. prob
ably slipped, she said.
When the body was found it was
taken to the international Undertaking
establishment where the coroneds' in
quest was held by Justice Of the Peace
George B. Brown, the verdict being ac-
death.
Few details of the tragedy are avail
able, as there were no eye witnesses.
The conductor and engineer Of the
train, one of whom was at either end
of the train, saw no one, and knew
nothing of the fatal accident until later.
The man was evidently killed as the
train backed into the station from the
international bridge.
Pena is survived by a brother. Ramon
Pena, and one sister, MRS Juana Pena
Gonzales. His parents, Francisco Pena
and Maria Jesus Pena, dfed some time
ago.
Funeral services will be held at 5

culate Conception church here, inter
ment being made in the old city Gene

combined life accident policies for
special premiums rendered the insur-
ance companies liable TO taxation
against the increased premium.

(By the Associated PresS)
NEW LONDON, Conn, Sept.
28.-Advices to the submarine
base here at noon were that con-
ditions of sea and weather at the
locality of the S-51 wreck were
so bad that rescue operations
had to be suspended for the time
being.
The Century, 100 ton crane
vessel, was ordered to move to
Block harbor and the Monarch,
the larger crane vessel was or
dered to a harbor at Block Is
land and was starting there UNI
der tow.
NEW LONDON, Sept. 2s.-Belief
that the submarine S-51. sunk ID miles
east of Block Island Friday night when
rammed by the steamship City of Rome
might be raised today was expressed
by officers at the submarine base here.
Favorable ocean conditions were neces-
sary, however, the officers said.
Although every effort was being di-
rected toward rescue work only slight
hope was held out that any Of the 33
men who went down with the craft
would be found alive. Naval officials
say that the number who went down
with the submarine is 33, as one man
at first listed as aboard has been
found at home in New York visiting
sick relative.
One message was received at the
submarine base during the night from
the ring of naval vessels on guard and
at work during the hours of darkness
at the spot where the S-51 went down.
That message, received shortly after
ten o'clock by wireless. informed the
anxious persons ashore of the futile
effort to hoist the S51 by means Of
100 ton crane, the Century. 1t also
dampened the hopes of the naval men
that some of their comrades Of the
sea were still alive in the battered
she'll Of the undersea vessel.
No Response From Entombed.
The message. sent by Rear Admiral
H. H. Christy, commander of the con-
troll force, stated that divers at work
outside the sunken submarine had been
unable to obtain a response to their
efforts to communicate with the men
inside.
Six navy divers were at work at the
scene Of the wreck yesterday and last
night working in relays. They sue
ceeded in getting line under the
stern of the submarine and a 100 ton
lift was brought to bear on the under
sea vessel by the Century
The crane was drawn down to the
waters edge when the cable frightened
and the Century almost capsized under
the pressure. The crane, however, made
no impression on the S-51, believed to
be embedded in a bank of sand at the
bottom of the ocean,
After the failure of the Century to
raise the submarine little could be done
until the arrival Of the Monarch,
giant crane capable Of a 2OO-ton life
which, towed by two tugs, was on its
way from New York this morning.

ANNEXATION SPOKEN
RIGHT OUT LOUD

Considerable alteration has been
observed within the last week over
the consolidation movement of Edge
water Park Post Office with that of
Beverly but with no real argument
as yet launched by the several pa
irons to offset the plans under con-
sideration.
We feel that the patrons of the
Edgewater Park office have either
misconstrued the movement or else
have been misinformed by unstabled
reports which are usually evident on
any matters concerning projects
which win ameliorate conditions of
long standing.
The government in the past has
spent considerable funds in their var
ious departments with no return
value, but since the Coolidge admin
istration was installed the budget
system to promote economy and eff
cheney has resulted in combining
small affairs in compliance with the
retrenchment policy and in this en-
deavor can not very well adhere to
a few disgruntled critics at the ex-
pense of the government.
The Beverly Banner heartily endor-
SEES any plan promulgated by the
government which will improve SER
vice and likewise curtail expense and
to this end are millions of thinking
people who are of like mind, as the
taxpayer pays the cost of extrava-
gance, so for these reasons any one
who does not weigh the subject other
than from selfish standpoint is not
In accordance with the saving of
government funds.
Our attention has been called to the
fact that during the fight for Post
master that it was stated that about
500 of the Park people utilized the
Beverly office and for that reason
should not have their candidate de-
barred from appointment, if that be
true at that time, it is hardly fair
then to have the same people to fight
movement which will benefit their
own needs.
There are goodly number of the
Edgewater Park people who are in
favor of the consolidation for they
would get carrier service twice day
at their door while now they are
obliged to run to the office despite
the inclemency of the weather, SO it
is from all indications town divid-
ed by itself.
