BINGHAMTON, N. Y, September T.
"A grand jury inquiry to place possible
criminal responsibility for train wreck
that took II lives and injured scores
was announced today after District At
torney Frank Wooster clashed with
counsel for the Erie Railroad.
Wooster, who announced the inquiry,
intimated he was not satisfied with .
statement by an Erie omcial holding
Engineer M. H. King Of Elmira solely
responsible for the wreck. .
King was accused of running past
signals. He was at the throttle Of q
milk tain which rammed the rear Of
the Atlantic Flyer, Chicago-New YORK

senger car sandwiched between steel
cars of the express, was smashed 70

tives of the Interstate Commerce Com

Commission sitting In, today began IN

closed, guarded doors with only road
.ofhcials, the Federal and State repre-
sentatives and witnesses present.
Clash Before Recess.
The local inquiry recessed last night
when Wooster and Frederick J.
Meagher, Erie counsel, clashed over ex-
animation at police headquarters o1

to lay all the blame on Engineer Kings
shoulders.
what were cars of that freight train
doing out there in the yards clutterine

switching crew must have known the
flyer was due?" he asked.
H. J. Bordwell, general manager OF

said:
Engineer M. H. King was to blame
and alone to blame. He absolutely dis
regarded signals, rules. regulations and
about everything else"
