The train was running very fast—faster than usual at that point. The driving wheels were not moving at all, and did not move at all while the train remained in his sight. “Did you notice any brakemen on the pl of the cars?” asked the coroner. “No, str, I did not,” said the witness. “When I heard'the train coming I thought there was some- thing wrong, and 1 at the engine to see What was tho matter. I did not see any brake- men.” ‘The witness said he saw the engineer and fire- man. ‘The engineer Was at his post, DOING HIS DUTY LIKE A MAN. Leonard A. Norton, who lives at No. 40 Colfax street, @ Baltimore and Ohio Railroad watchman, testified that when the train passed his crossing at Lstreet the engineer seemed to be doing allin his power to stop the train. The wheels were sliding, and he was blowing for brakes. He thinks the engine blowed for brakes four or five times before reaching his crossiug. ‘THE ENOINEER “DOING HIS BEST” TO STOP THE TRAIN. Wm. W. Baden, of No. 65 H street northeast, gateman at thecrossing, corner of I and st streets, Was next called. He suld he was in such an ex- cited state - that he hardly remembered any- thing. He remembered three distinct blows of the whistle, one before the train reached the boundary. This first whistle was a long blow, the others short, He was under the impression’ at first that there was something on the track. ‘The locomotive went on to the Y, and passed nearly half way around. Witness under- stood that the engineer was doing his best to sto] the train, He was blowing for “down brakes,’ and tried to open his steam-box. He understood that the train was golag at the rate of 50 or 60 miles an hour. The train was coming directly to- ward witness, and he did not think 1t was running so fast. He did not notice the brakemen, DASHING TO DEATH AT SIXTY MILES AN. HOUR, John F. Buete, of No, 931 1st street northeast, testified that he heard the distress whistle blow- ing, before the engine entered the city. He then heard the engine blowing for the Y. When the train passed ‘witness it Was going at the rate of 50 or 60 miles an hour. When 1 train struck the Y, the cars were thrown off, The twy cars in the center seemed to witness to be the ones that: struck the building. One of them struck the edge; the other went underneath the tower. There were men on the train, at least six or seven, trying to stop it. He saw them at the brakes on the plat per ed train hands, even down to the porters of the cars. ‘The witness sad he had re- ported five tratus last week for coming in there at the rate of 40 or 50 miles an hour. He did not think that an effort was, made vo stop the train until after it crossed K street, He thought from the movement of the train that the engine was not reversed untilit reached that point, From the time he first heard the danger whistle the train had 234 miles in which to slacken its speed. He heard the whistle seven times. -He said he calculated the great speed from the fact that he could not distinguish the number on the engine or the names on the cars as they him, One of the passengers told witness that the train was running Just as fast when It entered the gy and when it struck the tower as it did at kville, Albert Marshall, colored, testified to seeing the train fying into the city blowing the Gentstle: give ing evidence similar to other witnesses. ‘TEN MINUTES LATE—CONDUCTOR WHEBLER’S STORY. George Wheeler, the conductor of the ill-fated train, was the next witness, The train, he sald) left Washington Junction, 42 miles away, ten minutes late, At Tuscarora and Boyd's, where trains slack, and at Gaithersburg, Rockville, and Silver Sprit the train was all right and under control. At Brook’s Station, where the down grade begins, witness went out and looked at the air. brakes and found them all right. At the water station this side of Brook’s the train shot out. He ‘saw then that the air had given out. The engineer blew for brakes at the bend at the Ger- mania Schuetzen Park. Witness was then between the smoking car and the ladies’ car, doing what he could to put on the brakes. Witness knew the air was gone by the sudden shooting forward ofthe train. He could not-tell the cause of it. He had two brakemen, oneof whom acted as! master. Up to the time the air gave out the tr: Was under perfect control. He remembered a man to him from a sleeper at Terra Cotta to get & $5 Dull changed, He walked trom one car to another, and the train was all right. With air brakes trains come down that grade at the rate of 35 or 40 miles an hour, and make a good stop. =The ‘train could be stopped inside of 500 yards. ‘THE BRAKES ALL DOWN AND “SET SOLID.” It was such ashort time, said the witness, for hand-brakes to act, that the train could not be stopped by them. The brakes were all put down and were set “solid” against the wheels, and the were in that condition after the accident ovcut Everything was done that mortal man could ao. ‘All witness thought about was to try to stop the train, ‘The last swing threw him from the plat- form into the smoking car. ‘The witness said, in anwer toa Juror, a train going 60 miles an hour would be more likely to fly the track than one ing slow. ‘The engineer had a steam-brake on the e1 Be; from the air-brake on the train. ‘Phe steam-brake was for eimergencies, ‘A representative of the Baltimore and Ohio road present ex] that it was apparent that the engineer bad applied the steam-brake, as the wheels were . He thought this fact might Pxplain why sho hoary train behind thee cngine sett ty BRAKESMAN M'KEE. Jno. McKee, a brakesman on the train, testified ‘that he heard the engineer blowing for brakes first at the water station, a quarter of a mile above the Doundary. He was on the rear car, and he put the brakes on both sleepers. He did not go through the cars, but set the brakes on the forward plat form of one and the rear platform of the other, ‘When the train stopped he was on the plattoria of the next to the last car. Witness had been on duty all night, from 10 o'clock until the time the Sccldent occurred, eight hours and @ halt. Ie had one hour yet, to dd duty before the traln reached Baltimore. Witness noticed the train going faster than usual after the car passed Brooks’ Station, and just then he heard the signal for brakes. ‘WHAT THREW THE CARS OFF THR TRACK. Benj. F, Brostus, a brother of the deceased and an engineer On the road, was called to the stand. He said there Was nothing that would render an engine unmanageable unless something broke about the engine, some bolt gave way, ur some- thing of that kind occurred.” The tact’ that the engine wheels were sliding showed that the en- gine was ot, unmanageable. When asked as to theory as towhy the traie left the in view of the testimony given, the witness said uo in going around a curve the weight of the train, the engine bel ‘would tend to throw some cars off the experience had taught him that it was safer in around a curve to have the engine pull the “train instead of having ene wrein Pes against the ¢) The cars yushing the engine would be more likely to leave fhe track. ‘The fact that the wheels were locked in this case indicated that the engine was re- versed.

FIREMAN 8MITH’S STORY. Fireman James W. Smith, who lies at Providence Hospital in a badly injured condition, has made the following statement regarding the accident: “The train reached Queenstown, one mile and a half from Washington, all right, ‘The air-brakes were and worked without any apparent trouble. We left Queenstown about ten minutes late, and I think that my engineer tried to make up the lost time. As soon as we got under head. way I noticed the train taking a sudden jump and then began to make fast time. The engineer called to me that the air-brakes would not worl and I could tell by his face that he was troubl about it. He ‘told me that he could not sto} the train nor even slow up, and I told him I wot ‘try and work the hand-brakes, I succecded in getting one break to work, and started to try an- wut the rate of of the train me from walking over the car. The force of the train made a regular hurricane ‘on the top of the cars, I could not hold my feet. I was compelled to almost hug the brake to keep my position on the train. Icould not even jump off, so fast the train went. ‘The engineer stood at lls post, doing his Dest to slacken the train. Isaw the engine leave the track before I was thrown to the ground, It seemed that the train was going nearly 60 mies fan hour, It was completely unmanageable It Wasa runaway train, Inever went so fast in my fe HE SAW NO BRAREMEN. Mr. Arthur Brice, of thiscity, was onthe train, on his way home from Deer Park. He sat near the front end of the forward sleeper, reading, and noticed the unusual speed of the train. He said he did not hear the whistling and did not see any brakeman attempt to stop the train. THE BOOTBLACK’S ESCAPE.
