AY EVENING, FEBRUARY. 8, 1904, VIEW OF THE WRECK ON THE BROOKLYN “1”? ROAD IN WHICH FIVE PERSONS WERE BADLY INJURED. | Brother: W WOMEN FAINT IN "LOAD CRASH Forty Trampled Upon by Crowd in Panic Following Rear-End _ Collision in Brooklyn, Due to Defective Brake. In a.renr-end collision on the Fitth avenue elevated brangh of the Brook- lyn Rapid. Transit Company to-day, die apparently to a defective brake, five persons’ ‘were’ .sériously Injured and over forty women fainted and were trampled upon by men in their frantic efforts to reach a place of safety. The accident occurred ‘between the Fulton and Atlantle avenue stations on the strip of the road which runs along Flatbush avenue. It was similar in many ways to the two recent accidents on the same branch of the road, only In this case there was no fog or steam to shut off the motorman’s view. ‘The testimony of passengers who sat. weli up in the motor car of the-rear train is that G, go. Conklin,.the motorman, did all in Ils power to stop his train as soon as he saw the train ahead, but that the brakes refused to work. ‘There 1s a slight grade on the road between these two stations. Just before reaching the Fulton street station here is a curve running under the Fulton street elevated railroad. There 1s a sig. nal at this curve, and when a Bath Beach train reached the head ofthe curve at 9 o'clock this signal was set at danger, and the Bath Beach train came to a: complete stop before it had run twenty feet on the curve. As this train stopped Conklin’s train, which came from Bay Ridge, left the Flatbush avenue station.: Conklin saw the train ahead, but as it was nearly an eighth of a gnile away he kept on at his regular speed until he was about fifty yards from the stalled train. Then he shut off the power arid applied the air brake, i The brake refused to work, Conklin turned it off and then on again, but a hissing of air was all the result he got. ‘There was no perceptible diminution of speed. Conklin then reversed his pow- er, but It was too late. The motor car crashed into the rear car of the stalled train, burrowed its way under and lifted .the end of the car fully five feet from the rails, ‘There were at least 600 passengers on the two trains. They were thrown from thelr seats and piled up in heaps at the ends of the ‘cars, ‘Those in the motor car of the colliding train and those im the.rear car of the Bath Beach train got the worst of the shock. Breaking glass cut dozens and in the excitement fully two-score women fainted, \ Women Thrust Aside. As soon as passengers were sable to get to their feet there was a rush for the doors. 4Vomeh were thrown aside by men, the gates were forced open and men poured out onto the footpaths hand sewed welts, Also direct attention t ‘Stern Brothers To-morrow Spécial Sale of Women’s Vici Kid Shoes | in button and lace, with low or military heels, 92025 o Early Spring Styles * « Black and Tan Russia Calf Pumps, Third Floor Unusual Values Brilliant Glass Exceptionally Rich Cuttings f Ficy Bon Bon Trays, $1.
