BABY HURLED THROUGH AIR.
Passengers Tell Of Experiences In Fatal
Wreck.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ABERDEEN, Md, January Ia
Scenes within the coaches of a double
wreck on the Pennsylvania Railroad
here last evening were described today
by passengers, one Of whom said she
saw a baby thrown through the air as
the first shock Of the collision was felt.
Mrs. H. Davis and Mrs. J. G. Jackson
were returning together on the north
bound train to their homes in Northeast.
Md. and Perryville, respectively, after
shopping in Baltimore.
We were talking" said Mrs. Davis,
when we heard a sudden crack. At
first we didn't know what had hap
pened. Then there was an awful crash.
1t threw me forward and out of my seat.
Across the aisle some people had
been playing cards and / saw baby go
flying through the air. - krlor
whether 1t was hurt =" rct.
several passengCl5 made fc" the
windows on the left side of the coach.
but several trainmen ran into the car
and warned us to leave only on the
right side. They helped us off. We
were in the second car of the train"
1t was explained the train crew warm
ed passengers not to leave by the left
side of the coaches, because of danger
of being struck by the southbound flyer
ON the tracks there.
lothian Coleman, colored porter on
the flyer, said he was making up berth
when the wreck occurred The concus-
sion. he said, pitched him into the aisle,
where he landed on his head and was
dazed rlomentarily.
with the realization that there had
been a wreck, he opened window and
helped a few passengers out Of the
coach.
Man Sees Both Crashes.
Alfred Tobin, an employe of Ralph
Mitchell. got a complete view of both
collisions. Standing on the lawn before
the Mitchell home, he watched the
north bound train come into view.
Then he saw the freight coming slowly
ahead OF the passenger train.
THE passenger train crashed Into
the rear of the freight" he said,
Everything seemed to spread out and
fall over the tracks
With added horror, Tobin said, he
heard the whistle Of the southbound
flyer as it approached the South Lane
crossing, too close to the scene Of the
wreck. he realized, to stop short of
the debris that Uttered the rails. The
flyer reared out of the mist and plowed
into the wood and iron that lay over
the rails.
Tobin sprinted to the tracks and
looked through the window of one of
the overturned Pullmars of the flyer.
Two persors-an aged man and his
fe-pleaded for aid.
Tobin half dragged and half lifted
them out on the roadbed.
