Trouble. !
Schenectady, N. Y.. June
Eleven persons were killed ariU 21
crzi today when a train oi ex
press cars crashed into the rear end
of a passenger train which h.id
stopped about two miles from Sche
nectady because of engine trouble. ,
All but one. of those killed were
asleep in two Pullmans at! the rear
of the passenger train. The body of
Maru Doyle of Albany, engineer of
the express, waj found in the wreck
age with one hand fast to the throt
tle. ;
Only two of the dead have so far
been identified. They are Martin
Doyle of Albany, engineer on the
express train, and a -2-year-old
baby, aupposeif.to-be the ehild of
Kellis ,C.Crouse ,of Ulica. Mr.
Crouse' was removed tVa hospital
here unconscious and the child was
identified by the Pullman conductor.
Many1 Are Unidentified.
Among the dead also was a man
believed to be W. J. Heuill of Syra
cuse. The others were two uniden
tified men, a boy and an elderly
woman.
The train on which virtually all
the killed and injured were passen
gers was No. 28, a New York Cen
tral passenger train from Buffalo to
New York, with two Pullmans, two
day coaches and baggage and mail
cars. .The train which crashed into
it wai a Michigan Central special of
ten cars carrying express.
The rear car of the passenger
train, a Pullman in which 12 pas
sengers were asleep was split to
pieces. Twenty-two people were
asleep in the other Pullman. The
train had stopped in an open field
between Glenville tod Scotia, be
cause of a defective water pipe in
the -engine.
Flagman Tells Story. -.
C Robinson, flagman on the train,
gave tbe following version of the
accident:
"I went back 30 car lengths and
saw No. 34 coming toward me and
I stayed in the middle of the track
as long as I dared. She kept com
ing and did not blow her whistle. I
waved my red lantern and tbrf m, the
red fuse into the cab as it whizzed
by, but I did not see the engineer do
anything."
Just before the1 crash 'came the
fireman on No. 34 leaped from his
cab and escaped serious injury, but
Doyle, the engieeer, was pinned
under the wreckage and killed,. -
Rescuers said his hand had to be
pried from his throttle.
Engineer Ignores Signal
New York Central officials here
said that Martin Doyle, "engineer of
the express, had run by three sig
nals in meeting death at his post on
his 50th birthday.
He disregarded a. distant signal,
one and three-quarter miles from
the standing train,; they said; then
passed a home signal, three-quarters
of a mile from the passenger
train, and tinally ignored the flag
man of the passenger train, who had
gone back with a red lantern.
Railroad officials announced that
the block si.aaials had been inspected
after the wreclt and found to be i
working order and set against
train No. 34.
