TRAIN HITS HACK ON WASHINGTON ST (Continued from First Page.) geon, whs the first physician on the scene and gave first aid treatment to Claughsey and his niece. He accom- panied the former to the hospital on the ambulance’s second trip. Miss Claughsey was rushed to that insti- tution in Parker & O’Connors auto de- livery truck. Claughsey’s. condition nounced hopeless amination of his injuries on the operating table. Before his transfer to the hospital it was feared that he would die and a call was sent to St. Mary’s parish for a priest. He ar- rived after the injured had been taken to the hospital and followed them there. was pro- following an ex- Mrs. Claughsey Prostrated. Drs. Walsh and John L. Kelly were in charge of Claughsey's case and operated at once in a desperate at- tempt to save his life. They found him to be suffering from a fractured skull, compound fracture of the left leg, internal injuries, multiple abrais- ions and lacerations as well as shock. He was unconscious to the end. His wife was at his bedside as he died. She was prostrated by the tragedy. Pieces of the wrecked hack were scattered along the tracks and upon the embankment for a wide area. Blood from the injured and mangled horse made the scene appear like a slaughter house. Pieces of wood and iron from the hack were picked up nearly to the Main street crossing and taken from the locomotive at the railroad station. The locomotive pilot was splintered and battered on one side and the iron step between the cab and tender torn off. Engineer Harry Drinkwater of Win- sted and Conductor Benjamin Clark of Waterbury were in charge of the train. Drinkwater and Fireman Ray- mond A. Becker of Tast Hartford said that all precautions had been taken in approaching the crossing and were unaware that it was not protected properly until they saw the hack appear almost directly'in front of the locomotive. Drinkwater, ac- cording to New Haven road officials, was engineer of the train that fig- ured in a wreck at Bristol about a year ago. Three Investigations Under Way. Three investigations were imme- diately begun follawing the removal of the injured to the hospital. Medical Examiner Harry A. Elcock was one of the first physicians on the scene. Immediately upon being informed of Claughsey’s death he began a formal investigation. Chief Rawlings began the police investigation by interview- ing trainmen and witnesses. In this he was assisted by Detective Sergeant Samuel A. Bamforth. According to the police, Gatetender Jones said the gates were not lowered because he had no warning of the approach of the express and his view was obscured by a train of freight cars which had just been hauled past that point by a switching engine. The railroad officials, including de- tectives covering this territory, also questioned witnesses. In great agony, unable to rise and bleeding profusely from one side, which had been partially torn away by the locomotive pilot, one of the horses attached to the hack presented a pitiful sight. Chief Rawlings gave it a hurried examination and ordered it shot. Policemar Charles McCarthy used three bullets to end its suffer- ings. o Brakeman Thomas Buckley of the switching crew is credited with hav- ing been largely responsible for saving the third hack from a somewhat sim- jlar fate as the one before it. Tts oc- cupants were horrified spectators of the acciqent and almost overcome at the narrown of their escape. : says No Whistle Was Blown, Among those questioned by Chief Rawlings, as eyewitnesses were 3eorge F. Hennig of 398 South Main street, vard superintendent of the Russell & Erwin Manufacturing com- pany, Edmund Coogan of 568 Hast Main street and Frank Cook of 141 Chestnut street. The three agreed that no warning was given of the train’s approach and that the gates were not lowered until after the hack was on the tracks. Hennig was posi- tive that Engineer Drinkwater did not whistle for the crossing until im- | mediately before the impact. He said that the whistle and crash of the col- lision came so near together that it was almost impossible to separate them. That the four occupants of the hack were not killed outright is a cause of wonderment to those who witnessed the accident and were on the scene soon afterwards. They never had a chance to escape and it is considered doubtful if they knew what struck them. The curtains of the hack windows were drawn and no NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, DECERBER 9, 1916. T | cries of warning apparently reached them until the monster locomotive was upon them, ripping the metal and woodwork apart, as if by a gigan- tic knife and throwing their uncon- scious and bleeding nodies on the em- i bankment under the wreckage. Brakeman R. R. Scott and E. Bd- wards and Baggagemaster J. S. Cro- nan of the express were among the first to give first aid to the and then to go among the passengers to ascertain if any had been injured in the quick stopping of the train. Detective A, J. Richardson and Policeman Charles McCarthy, Theo- dore Johnson, John J. King, Freder- ick Wagner, Thomas Woods and Den- nis O’Keefe were among those as- sistant Chief Rawlings and Detective Sergeant Bamforth. Several heard the creash from their traffic posts while other were hurried to the scene by House Officer A, C. Malone. Prosecuting Attorney George W. Klett was on the scene early but took no action. Whether there will he of- ficial action taken by him depends upon results of investigation by po- lice and Medical Examiner Elcock. According to the police, it is the worst grade-crossing accident since the family of John B, Dyson was practically wiped out about thir- ty-two years ago at the Black Rock crossing. Ambulance Service Poor, Criticism of the lack of ambulance service was freely heard at the scene of the accident and, later about the streets. The combination police patrol-ambulance carrfed only one stretcher and it is aimost impossible to Yake more than one patient at a time, unless ohe is piaced on the floor of the machine and subjected to the combination of rough roadway and springs that are not easy. A regula- tion ambulance would have enabled, those criticising say, the police to transfer all, or three, of the injured at one trip. As it was, there was de- lay while the ambulance was making two trips and an automobile and auto truck had to be pressed into service. A stretcher was borrowed from the Russell & Erwin ractory. Gloom settled on the fire houses of the city as news of the accident spread. It was intensified when news came of “Mike” Claughsey’s death. The many inquiries relative to his condition came from all walks of life. In his more than forty-two years as a fireman, he had made many friends and was one of the most popular members of the department. For a number of years he has been driver of Engine Co., No. 3. He was about 60 yvears old. Chairman E. G. Babcock: of the safety board, Chief Robert M, Dame and Assistant Chief William J. Noble eulogize Claughsey as a fireman of ex- ceptional record and efficiency. But it is among the rank and file where there is, if it can be, even deeper sor- row. The deceased was particularly well liked by his associates. Funeral arrangements have not been com- pleted. Claughsey was presented with a gold medal about-three years ago by the Y. M. T. A. & B, society in revog- nition of his long and honorable career as a member of the society.

It has become apparent that the ukulele has invaded the American market with some promise of a per- manent place in the public regard. Those who have not attempted har- mony upon it may have speculated upon its source. A. P. Taylor, a correspondent of the Federal Depart- ment of Comrherce, has given some information on that point, The ukulele was first produced by a Portuguese at Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands. It was a popular vehicle of music in the islands long before it invaded the American market. Mr. Taylor tells us that September 1, 1915, the ukulele factories of the islands were turning out 500 or 600 instruments a month. A year later the production had increased to 1,600 a month, and the orders from n:usio dealers were far from being all filled. Last month a company was organized in Honolulu to manufacture 2,000 Announcement has been made * 011 ykuleles a month.
