(TWELVE PERSONS KILLED ON
NEW YORK ELEVATED ROAD.
Moat Berlouo Accident Ever Happen-
Ing on Manhattan's Overhead Rail
, way Bodies of Many of the Vlc
tlmt Horribly Mangled.
I Now York, Soit. 12. Tho (loath list
of tho accident on tho Ninth iivcnuo
elevated railroad, when a cur crowded
with early morning workers, on their
way down town, pitched headlong In
to tho street, standB at twelve. Three
men are in hospitals with fractured
,skullB. One of these is unconscious
and not expected to live. More than
two score of persons wore injured,
many of them seriously.
Tho cause of the accident nnd tho
Immediate responsibility remain to bo
fecen. The tnotorman of tho wrecked
train Is a fugitive, while a switchman,
conductor and four guards aro under
arrest.
The Rwitchmnn Is charged with man
slaughter and the trainmen arc held
as witness.
Whatever may have caused tho ac
cident, tho worst In tho history of tho
overhead railroads in New York, it
came when a southbound train on tho
Ninth avenue line wns switched off
to tho Sixth avenuo lino at the Fifty
third street Junction. Tho motorman,
expecting a clear track, or disregard
ing tho wnrning signal that tho switch
ivas open, rushed hia train along at a
high rato of speed. Tho first car
swung around tho right angle curve,
holding to tho rails because of the
weight of tho train behind. Then tho
iBtrain became too great. Tho coup
lings broko, tho second car was
(Whirled about almost end for end,
and to tho horror of those who looked
on from below, pitched into the street,
jj Tho first indication people on tho
vldewnlk had of tho accident was a
loud rumbling along tho overhead
Wucturo. Looking up they saw n
ehower of sparks, then followed splint
'crs and tho sound of Bplitting timbers.
tHnddenly tho outer guard rail of tho
'railroad structure gave way, a scoro
of bodies wero hurled through space
and with a deafening crash the car
fell to the street. For an Instant It
stood fairly on end. Then tho sides
gavo way as if they wero made of
pasteboard, belching out n mass of
humanity.
Thoso passengers who hnd not
Jumped from plavforms and windows
before tho plungo came wore thrown
Into a mass in tho forward end of tho
car. As tho Injured men and women
wero struggling to free themselves,
tho heavy front trucks of the third
car on the train fell almost In their
midst ns tho car Itself Jumped partly
off tho elevated structure and was
-wedged against a building at tho
southeast comer of Ninth avenuo and
Fifty-third street.
Hugo crowds wero soon on tho
scene nnd tho first work of tho hastily
summoned pollco reserves wns direct-1
en in clearing a way for tlio efrectlvo
rescuo of tho passengers pinned down
ly tho wreckngo. Almost every am
bulance In Manhattan wns summoned
and tho injured and dead wore hur
ried away with nil speod.
Threo alarms of lire brought many
engines to the scene. A slight fire
caused by burning Insulation was
quickly extinguished and tho firemen
set to work chopping out tho dead and i
injured. Tho task was not nn easy!
one, for tho henvy car In falling had j
almost completely buried pedestrians '
in its wreckngo. At least one was !
hillod outright In this way, while Po
liceman Henry Aitkens, who wns '
standing directly under tho elovnted
structure, is among those most seri
ously injured.
