Fvhree douths are attributable to the fact that the company has no gates at this crossing. It has no flagman there, but runs trains at a high speed. Miller was crossing the track in his milk wagon, when the fast Patchogue Express. drawn by engine No. 15, struck William Miller, the wagon killed the horse and threw Miller forty feet. When,picked up he was dead. Henry Prior, a New York attorney living in Winfleld, and Andrew Paltzig, @ wealthy and retired hotel-keeper of Winfield, were crosying the tracks at ‘the same place when they were struck by an express train four days ago. Pait- ig was killed instantly and Prior died in St. John’s Hospital, Long Isiand City. Prior's horse, valued at $1,000, was also killed. Residents of the neighborhood of these accidents say that repeated petitions ave been sent, asking the company to put in gates at the crossing and to em- ploy a flagman. No reply has even been’ made to the petitioners, Repeated ac- eidents have occurred in the last sev- eral years, At this point there is a long gtretch of even track and express trains ‘usually go at a rate of speed ap- proaching fifty miles an hour. ‘The Coroner has not yet acted on the eaths ‘of Prior and Paitalg, and it is Ukely that he will now make the in- voatigation more thorough. Agents for the railroad have already been en- deavoring to sritie with (he rejniives et the three men who have been killed The cases are made more serious by the fact that the train which killed (Prior and Paitzig went on through without stopping afier striking them: Witnesses say that members of the train ch looked back and saw the two bodies ng where they had been thrown He the train, and then sped on.

The two men got off the car and Mr. Stone walked around the rear end to run for the hotel and get out of the rain. Picked Up Unconncious. The Ision occurred Just as Mr. Stone stepped from behind the car. Young Ten Broeck, hurrying to the post- office in the face of the storm, did not see Mr. Stone until too late, The ban- die-bars struck Mr. Stone and threw him to the ground. His head struck the car tracks and he was picked up un- conscious and carried into the hotel. Young Ten Broeck was thrown as well as Mr. Btone, but no one realized the seriousness of the accident, and after | seeing that Mr. Stone was taken into the hotel, young Ten Broeck rode on up- town. Several physicians were called, but Mr, Stone died at U1 o'clock last night. He was thirty-three years olf and had a wife and one child, A week ago they came to Asbury Park for two weeks.

GONE SINCE MONDAY. Wandered Away from Home While Ill and Supposed to Be Lost in New Jersey Swamp. (Special to The Evening World.) NEWARK, N. J., Aug. 7—An effort will be made to secure trained blood- hounds for the purpose of tracing young Wilberforce Ogden, the son of Million aire Willam Ogden, who disappeared from his summer home at Chatham on last Monday night. The anxiety of the young man's rela- tives and friends in Newark, where he makes his home, Is nerve racking. The Passaic River and near-by ponds have been dragged, every road is being watched and the searching parties are fighting thelr way through the wilder- ness of the great swamp near the Og- den home. Dr, Lesile Ward, vice-president of the Prudential Life Insurance Company, who also has a summer home at Chatham, has engaged a special staff of men to participate in the search, Eugene Unger, a wealthy Newark jow- eller, has ordered all the men employed on his estate at Chatham to assist in the work, Several months ago the young man returned from the Vermont Theological Seminary much broken in health. Mel- ancholia had developed ag a result of his brooding over his failure to-finish the required course of study. Immediately upon his return home his father had an attendant go with him.
