Police of the Kast Gist Street Sta- tion were called to guard several thousand dollars when the collection train on the Second Avenue L was wrecked in a collision with a shuttle train at 67th Street at 1.05 A. M. to- day. For two hours Sergeant Tim- othy McKeogh and two patrolmen stood guard until the money could be transferred from the wreck to a new collection train. The only delay to passengers was the short time required to get another shuttle train to take @ number of them to Corona, The regular services on the Second Avenue elevated had ended for the night, with the excep- tion of the Corona shuttle, which was at the 67th Street Station taking om the last passengers. The collection train of two cars in charge of Mc ormam Dutcher and Paywaater William Bushnell had made the trip from 129th Street to South Ferry and was returning. The day's receipts had been collected from all station ugents along the line. Arriving at 67th Street, the collee- tion train struck the Corona shuttle with such force that the front plat- form of one car and the back plat- form of the other were demolished. Passengera were thrown down, put none was hurt.
