man at the rrosnlng gave them a signal
to go ahead fast. The car was put on
full speed and had reached the middle
of the tracks when tha engine went dead.
A freight was a short distance off and
coming at a dangerous rate of speed. The
three occupants of tha car did not have
time to get out of the car before the
engine waa upon them. The front of the
engine struck the hood of the machine

fifteen feet to one side. The car was
overturned and Wagner waa pinned un
