Almost every I citizen "as racked with fear that some 1 Olathe was among the dead. WRECKED TRAIN FILLED WITH PLEASURE SEEKERS. The wrecked train was filled with measure- seekers, bound for an even ing „f enjoyment at Atlantic City. Most 0 f them were from. Philadelphia and Camden. The train .left Camden at 1 . ,n The road ts owned by the Penn- ,,lvanla railroad, and only a month , u0 was converted from a steam to.an electric line. The train ran at the rate of 60 miles hour. It Was In charge of Mator- m an Walter Scott,- of Camden, whose body Is now at the-bottom of - the atream plntfed' In his car. The three cars contained more than ,0,1 p issengera. The train reached the araivbrldge over the Thoroughfare at •■"5 p. m. This trestle Is about a mile long and the dj-awbrldge Is In the cen ter As the train struck the trestle the passengers were beginning to get ready {o dlsembarn at Atlantic City. Some w ere getting out* of'their seats, others we re reaching for the packages In the rocks near the doors. Men were helping their wives put on their jftekets. yearly all were lhughlng or merry making. CARS PLUNGE OVER BRIDGE INTO THE WATER BELOW. Then came a Jar that threw almost every person out of their teat. As the cars crashed over the bridge every per- ion turned pale In terror and there was alienee, n stupor of fear before minds tvere able to grasp the situation. The cars plunged over the bridge fifteen feet below and a cry of terror sent up. Then the terrible fighting atruggle against death began. The couplings of the cars held and the third car was dragged over the edge. It hung suspended for an Inter val. long enough to permit a score of persons to get out, while a yell of fear and ngony came from those In the cat CLOSED DOORS OF CARS MAKE TRAP OF DEATH. The cars were of the same pattern ns the subway cars In New York, huge steel .-iff.'IIrs, with a vestibule and dou ble doors at each end. The doors were closed and hold by a patent arrangement that made each ear a death trap. The first coach had shot clean ove! the bridge and struck the water with Its wheels pinning. The second cor was almost perpendicular for a few necomls, then the rear end slipped from the bridge, the car sinking flat In the mud. like the first. Tile coupling of the third car was broken nnd It turned almost at right nngles to the bridge be fore It fell. H was the deeresslng weight, as the passengers fought their way through the rear door that finally aent the coach in the water. HEROISM OF A BRAKEMAN SAVES NUMBER OF LIVES. A great beam pierced the floor and held the coach on Its point. That all In the third coach did not die was due to the heroism and foresight of Wil liam Wood, a brakeman. After the train Jumped the tracks, and while It was running along the trestle floor, he rushed the rear of the last car and opened the door. He believed that the train would go Into the water, and he opened the only avenue of escape. Wood stood guard at the door until the coach finally fell. He assisted sev eral persona to rescape through the door, and as ho worued he kept call ing for every onto to remain cool, as the least excitement or psnlc might re sult In the greateat, loss of life. Wood was rescued when being car ried away by the tide, 1 He was uncon- adous when picked up, but Was resus citated by a physician. PASSENGER WHO E8CAPED PRAISE8 BRAVE BRAKEMAN. New York. Oct. 29.—H. K. Joseph, diver sees horrible sight WHEN HE LOOKS INTO CAR Atlantic City,, ff. J., Oct. 29.—Half an hour after the wreak, the story of the picture of what was rbeneath the wa ter was brought up by John A. Cooney, an Atlantic city contractor. Cooney, an old-time diver, volunteered to go down and fasten derrick chains under one of the cars. An old diving suit was procured. There was no air pump, so an old beer pump was brought Into service from u neighboring brewery. "I could only stay under water for a few minutes." said Cooney, "for my Im provised pump would not work. I found the first two cars had been wrenched apart from the other nnd vvere sunk In water and mud at an an gle of about 45 degrees. The forward ends had be'en <1 riven fast ‘In to.-the mud and ,the two cary -vepc sprt of rolled on. their side! and were about 7 feet apart. , "I raised myself and-peered through « window of the forward cor. The face of a dead child, perhaps 4 years old. was pressed against the window. It had a horrible gash clear across the forehead. I- sain;.. the body . of a man wedged - tightly In one of the packagd racks. .Bodies were,piled up In a great heap In the forward end of the car. At the top of the cal-1 paw the form of a woman, A pair of diamond earrings glistened In her ears. 1 never saw aucli a horrible spectacle In my life. "The car seemed pretty much lptaot. and the people must have "all been plunged Into a heap at the forward end by the shock." MOTHER OF MORTORMAN HAD PREMONITION OF WRECK Atlantic City, N. J., Oct. 21.—Walter .him In the least.- Passing , around Scott, the motonnan of the wrecked I curves, the three steel cars leaped and train, had a quarrel with' his mother and father In Camden before he started on the fatal trip, because they had a premonition that something was going to happen and tried to persuade him not to go. Mrs. Scott put her arms around her ion's neck, and, clinging .to him, begged him not'to go out on the train, but the young man brushed her aside. Scott was an experienced motorman and had been working on the new third rail electric line ever since It feplared the West Jersey steam trains. The lightness of his train did not terrify swayed at a speed sometimes reaching 60 miles an how. It was.‘according to railroad ‘-operatives, . this tightness which made ,thb electric train danger ous w ithout the weight, of-a Jocomottve to hold them steady on the rails. 8cott'a‘father,! Who l« an pld, locomo tive. fireman, Insisted that the trains run over the, electric railway'were not safe, and thaf they were sdre to .pome to grief. Other railroad men acquaint ed with the, conditions on the Pennsyl vania’s new-: electrif- line were • not greatly surprised by the wreck. Some had predicted that a big-wreck would occur. PERSONS FIGHTING FOR LIFE DROWNED B Y RISING'TIDE Catarrh of the Stomach A Pleasant, Simple, But 8afe and Ef fectual Cura for It, COSTS NOTHING TO TRY. ‘‘aian h of the stomach haa long been eontldered the next thing to Incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or floating sensation after eating, accom panied sometimes with sour or watery pressure „n the heart and lungs an difficult breathing, headaches, fickle appetite, nervousness, nnd a general Played out, languid feeling. There is often n' Tool taste In the »outli, coated tongue and If the In terior of the stomach could be seen It *oul,I show a slimy. Inflamed condi tion.

To "rare a prompt nnd healthy digestion the one normal dlgei.JMHBM^^I catarrhal condition will have disap peared. According to Dr. Harlanson, the •afest and beat treatment Is to nse aft er each meal a tablet, composed of Dt- **tasr. Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux. polden Seal and fruit acids. These “Nets can now be found at all drug (tares under the name of Stuart’s Dys pepsia Tablets, and not being a patent Jtedl, ine. can be used with perfect “ifty and assurance that healthy ap petite and thorough digestion will fol- their regular use after meals.

J„ Oct. 29.—The moat horrible sight of the appalling disaster was that of the third coach, which was held suspended for 30 sec onds on the projecting beam. The coach was tipped on end and after 30 passengers hajl escaped the car dropped, and, falling In a mud bank, was not covered by the water. ' "Several persona were caught in the eoach and were drowned. Their cries were heart breaking. A rescuer Jumped on the roof, caught a woman's wrlat through a ventilator and held It until the rising tide claimed her life. A stout man was stuck In one of the windows. Ho was Ailed with hope when he found that his head was above water. Presently, however, he discov ered Jhat the tide was rising and he made desperate struggles to gain lib erty and life. Two men on the roof pulled hts arms In vain and all efforts to save him were useless. He' was erased with despair, and, lighting the rising water with his arms, prayed and cursed al ternately. until the tide uvept over him. His body was cut out an hour later. His struggles were so terrible that the flesh on his sides was tom itway by contact with the window frame. OTHER DISASTERS OCCURRED ' NEAR SCENE OF THE WRECK New York, Oct. 29.—The disaster 6f t fofnMhree. yesterday was close to the place where * on July 30, 1896, a Philadelphia and Heading “Flyer" crashed Into a West Jersey and Seashore- accommodation train killing nearly fifty persons. The two roads cross each other on the meadows a few hundred yards » from the scene of yesterday's disaster. That wreck resulted In the death of forty- four persons, all but two of whom were killed outright, und serious Injury to Anpthqr dipaster, though not of the dame character, was Jhe dynamiting of the Eastern Express on the Pennsyl vania at Harrisburg on May 21. of last year. A shunting* engine on the east track caused a freight train on the east track, to w*htch a car of dynamite was attached,, to come to a sudden stop, and the car to lean out over the west bound track. The Eastern express “sldeswlped" the dynamite car. Twen ty dead and a hundred injured was the result of this accident.

MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP DID NO7 ENTER AS ISSUE INMARIE77A ELEC770N Special to The Georxlan. Marietta. Ga., Oct. 29.—The election here Saturday resulted In the over whelming defeat of the bonds for both waterworks and sewerage. Out of a total of 672 registered votes only 270 votes were polled, 250 votes being cast In "favor of waterworks and 270 for sewerage. While sewerage bonds re ceived 29 more votes than the water works, they still lacked 17S votes of receiving the two-thirds necessary to carry. The failure of the seweragu bonds to earry In the face of the fact that they were strongly’supported by the friends of The Georgia Manufac turing and Public Service Company, who opposed the waterworks bonds, would seem to Indicate that the ques tion of municipal ownership played but little part as an Iseuc fn th,e contest, otherwise the sewerage bonds, about which there was no question of city ownership, would have received a much larger vote than the waterworks bonds. They both received about the same vote and neither received anything like enough to carry. who la In the city suffering from In juries In the Atlantic City railroad wreck, said all those who escaped owed their lives to the heroism and cool- headed work of the brakeman. "The door flew open and half of the fortunate people who are now alive to tell the story made their escape through thts door," said he.
