Said the report: When the de- ceased was firts seen he and second boy were either lying on the ties beside the rails or climbing up be- tween the ends of the two tets of ties across the trestle. Immediately upon sighting them, the engineer applied emergency brakes but did rot come to stop until the entire train had passed several hundred feet beyond the Boyden street tres tie, The engineer also blew warn ings with the train whistle on sight ing the boys on the track. Accord ing to testimony of the engineer and the fireman who were riding in the cab of the engine, deceased made an attempt to jump from the track but the train came upon him before he was able to get out of the way. The second boy, not identified, escaped.
 The track curves to the left before entering the straight stretch men, toned above, depriving the engineer of clear vision until the locomotive has entirely rounded the turn. It is fully apparent from the testimony however, that immediately the en- gineer was aware of the danger, he gave warning and applied the brakes to their full capacity.
