A train of five cars drawn by a steam engine came out of the yards near Alabama avenue Before it had proceeded hait a block {t wag brovght to a full stop because the Steam coupling of the rear car was out of order and great volumes of steam were pouring from it. Although at a time in the morning when crowded passenger trains closely follow one another on the road, and the steam train was practically obscured from view by the thick white steam that was escaping from the defective conpling, no signal was set to warn the motorman of the train behind to slow up, no conductor or brakeman ran back on the track to stop the oncoming train. The simple applicetion of a rule in force on every steam surface railroad in the world would have nrevented what followed, ‘ TRAIN DISCOVERED TOO LATE, A mbtor train of five cars, each one loaded to the very platforme with passengers, came along the Pitkin avenue structure at a high rate of speed. ‘Too late the motorman, Edward Wanser, discerned through the cloud of white steam the trafy ahead of him. He turned off his power and appiled his emergency brakes, but the train rushed on and crashed into the rear of the empty train, killing instantly the three men at work on the coupling. | The motor car telescoped the empty car into which it ran and the wreck- age caught firé. For a time it looked as though there would be a feartul result, for passengers, men and women, were tangled in the cars, the flames were flying dangetously near to them, and the excitement that prevailed prevented any rational, orderly means being taken to get them out.
