The victims were en route to their homes in this city, after completing their night's work at the New Departure compary in Bristol.

The dead man is Alexander Nusinski, whose address was not learned. Both Legs Broken. Katachurian sustained compound fractures of hoth legs below the hips, and his condition is regarded as crit- ical. Nusinski suffered a fracture of the skall, and it was deemed neces sary to operate on him almost im- mediately after his admission to the hospital. Dr. G. W. Dunn removed three pieces of bones from his head, but he died soon afters The other victims all are resting, comfortably, having suffered only from lacerati about the body, Car is Demolished. The machine was a Dodge touring cary owned by Alex, and was recently transformed from a - delivery truck into a public service car. ,It is pre- sumed that Alex, was at the wheel at the time. As there were no eve wit- nesses to the affa there is no ac- curate information as to the cause of the accident. It is said, however, that rving to pass another ma- chine lost control of the car, with the resnlt that it struck a telegraph pole. The impact was terrific and several of the wires were knocked down. The top of the car was ripped off com- pletely, and lay close to the pole. The chassis of thc machine, facing in the direction from whence it came, was wrecked beyond repair. Police Hurry to Scene. The local police were apprised of the accident at 7:20 o’clock, and Ser- geant George J. Kelly' despatched Officer William O’Mara ‘and Patrol Driver Michael Brophy to the scene in the police patrol.

The others were lying in other parts of the road. Dr. J. C. Tanner, of Plainville,qarrived at the place a short time after the accident, and he administered treatment to the in- jured men. Injured Rushed to Hospital. Owing to the serious condition of Katachurian he wi rushed to the hospital in the ambulance. Fireman George Sparmer, who drove the am- bulance after word had been received for the second time at the police sta- tion of the seriousness of the acci- dent, conveyed Nusinski in that vehi- cle to the hospital. Chief Dame took one of the injured men and a passing autoist volunteered assistance in con- veying the other two injured men. On the way to the hospital Kata- churian yelled and screamed with pain, and on arrival at the hospital, the officers in charge belleved him dead. Nusinski complained on the way to the hospital of terrific pains in his chest. (Willlam J.

CHAMPIONS Confident Slim Sallee Will Twirl Team to Final Vic- tory Over White Sox This Afternoon. CICOTTE MAY TRY FINAL COME-BACK Cincinnati, Oot. 8.—Fighting with their backs to the wall but hopeful despite their four defeats, the White Sox will meet the Reds today in the seventh game of the world’s series. The Reds and the 32,000 fans who witnessed yesterday's ten inning bat- tle felt confldent that the contest would be the decisive one and that before night the men of Moran will | be proclaimed baseball champions of the world, Either Cicotte or Jam Before the game started it was be- lieved that Manager Gleason of the Sox would send Eddje Cicotte, rated as the master pitcher of the American league, to the mound to face the Reds. Cicotte tried twice to stop them and failed, but Gleason has every confi- dence that he can master the Reds if his arm is in condition. It is possible, however, that “B Bill James may be Gleason’s eleventh hour choice. Supporters of the Reds believe that Slim Sallee would be Moran's pitch- ing selection. Sallee scored the Reds’ second victory of the series and is de- clared to be ready to take his turn on the pitching mound again. Reds Expect Vietory. All Cincinnati is getting ready to celebrate the expected victory of the and there was a wild rush today to get tickets for this afternoon’s con- test. The sale opened last night and hundreds stood in line for hours wait- ing to purchase choice box and grand- stand s If the Sox are victorious in today’s contest, the teams will have to return to Chicago for the eigh game Thursday. But admirers of the Reds are confident this trip will be unnecessary. That sixth game yesterday, going to ten innings and seeing the Reds beat- en, was full of thrills and erratic base- ball. The Reds passed up several op- portunities, something they have not been doing in the series. The Reds \made 11 hits, the Sox made three er- rors, two men walked and one was hit and out of the chances they collected only four runs. Sox Playing Fast Ball. Despite the three errors, the Sox defense froze up whenever the Reds were getting dangerous. The Sox seemed to realize that a humiliating defeat faced them unless a brace was taken and the team played champion- { ship ball in spots. | After the game Manager Gleason { declared that the Sox had at last hit their championship stride and al- though beaten in four of the six games | were far from out aof the race.
