i„, the railroad men In rescuing the
, Jdlej of tho dead.
The whole of Atlantic City was In an
I awful panic all night. Almost every
citizen was racked with fear that some
relative was among the dead.
WRECKED TRAIN FILLED
WITH PLEASURE SEEKERS.
The wrecked train was tilled with
pleasure seekers,- bound for an even-
l„tr of enjoyment at Atlantic Clt.v. Most
of them were from Philadelphia and
Camden. The train left Camden at'1
p. m. The road ts owned by the" Penn-
sylvanla railroad, and only a month
a io was converted from' a steam to an
electric line. ” •. •
The train ran at the rate of 6? miles
in hour. It was In charge of Motor-
man Walter Scott, of Camden, whose
body Is now at the bottom of the
it ream pinned In hls car.
The three cars contained more than
jno passengers. The train reached tho
drawbridge over the Thoroughfare at
t !5 t>. m. This trestle Is about a.mile
long and the drawbridge Is In the cen
ter. As the train struck the trestle the
passengers were beginning to get ready
to disembari. at Atlantic City. Some
tvere getting out' of their seats, others
were reaching for the packages In
the racks near the doors. Men were
helping their wives put on their Jackets.
Nearly all were laughing or merry
making.
CARS PLUNGE OVER BRIDGE
INTO THE WATER BELOW.
Then came a Jar that threw almost
every person out of their seat.- As the
cars crashed over the bridge every per
son turned pale In-terror and there was
silence, a stupor of : fear before minds
were able to grasp the situation.
The cars plunged over the bridge
fifteen feet below and a cry of terror
went up. Then «the terrible lighting
struggle 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
persona to get out. while a yell of fear
and agony came from those In the ca'i
CLOSED DOORS OF CAR8
MAKE TRAP OF DEATH.
The cars were of the same pattern
as the subway cars In New York, huge
steel affairs, with n vestibule and dou
ble doors at ehch end.
The doors wers closed and held by a
patent arrangement that mads aach
car a death trap.
The (list coach had ahot clean ovef
tbe bridge and struck the water with
Its wheels pinning. The second car
was almost perpendicular for a few
seconds, than the rear end slipped from
the bridge, the car sinking flat In the
mud. like the flrsL The coupling of
the third car was broken and It turned
almost at right angles to the bridge be
fore It feH. It was the decreasing
weight, as tlte passengers fought their
way through the rear door that Anally
ssnt 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 to the rear of the laat 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 Anally fell. He aaflsted sev-
eral persona to escape through the
door, and ns he wonted he kept call
ing for every one to remain cool, as the
least excitement or panic might re
sult In the greatest loss of life.
Wood was rescued when being car
ried away by the tide. He was uncon
scious when picked up, but was resus
citated by a physician.

Atlantic City, N. j.. o c t. 2».—Half an
hour after the wreck, the story of the
Picture of whnt. was beneath 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
wag procured. There was no air pump,
so an old beer pump was brought Into
service from n neighboring brewery.
'T could only stay under water for a
few minutes," said Cooney, "for my Im
provised pump would not work. I
found the first two csrs had been
wrenched .apart from the other and
were sunk In water and mud at an an
gle of about 45 degrees. The forward-
ends-had been driven fast In to the
mud and the two car* were sort

MOTHER OF MORI OR MAN
HAD PREMONITION Of WRECK
Atlantic City, N. J, Oct. 29.—Walter
Scott, the motorman of the wrecked
train, had a quarrel with hls mother
and father In Camden before he started
on the fatal trip, because they had a
premonition that something was going' ous without the weight of a locortiottv*
to happen and tried to persuade him
not to go. Mr*. Scott put her arm*
around her son's neck, and, clinging .to
him, begge<f him not to go out on the
tfaln, 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 replaced
the West Jersey steam trains. The
lightness Sf hls train did not terrify
him In I the. least. -Passing around
curves, the three steel cars leaped and
swayed at a'speed sometimes reaching
61) miles an hour.-- It was, according to
railroad operatlvea.’ this lightness
which made.'lbe- electric train danger-
to hold them steady on the'rails.
Scott's father, Avho In an old-locomo
tive fireman," insisted that the trains
run over the.electric railway were not
safe,, and'.that they were sure ;.to come
to grief. Other rallrbad men acquaint
ed with the conditions on the .Pennsyl
vania's new electric line were not
grently surprised by the wreck. Some
had predicted'that a big-wreck would
occur.
PERSONS FIGHTING FOR LIFE
DROWNED BY RISING TIDE
Atlantic City, N. J.; Oct. 29.—The
1 most 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 had escaped the car
dropped, and. falling In a mud bank,,
was not covered by the water. .
Several persons were caught in the
coach and were drowned. Their, cries
were heart breaking. A rescuer Jumped
on the roof, caught a woman's wrist
through a ventilator and held It until
the rising tide claimed her life.
A stout man was stuck In.one of tht
windows. He was Ailed with hope
when he found that hls head was above
water. Presently, hdWever, he discov
ered that the tide waa rising and he
made desperate struggles to gain lib
arty and life.
- Two men on the roof pulled hls arms
In vain and alt efforts to save him
were useless. He waa crazed
despair, and, fighting the rising water
with his arms, prayed and cursed at
ternately until the tide swept over him.
Hla body war cut out an hour later.
Hls struggles were so terrible that the
flesh on hls sides was torn away by
contact vylth the window frame,
OTHER, DISASTERS OCCURRED
NEAR SCENE OF THEyjYREUK
Catarrh of the Stomach
A Pleasant, Simple, But 8afe and Ef
fectual Curs for It,
C08TS NOTHING TO TRY.
''atarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to Incurable.
The usual symptom* are a full or
bloating sensation after eating, accom
panied sometimes with sour or watery
risings, a formation of gases, causlm
pressure on the heart and lungs an-
difficult breathing, headaches, fickle
appetite, nervousness and a general
played oul, languid, feeling.
There Is often a foul taste In the
mouth, coated tongue and If the In
terlor of the stomach could be seen It
would show a slimy. Inflamed condi
tion.
The cure for this common and obsti
nate trouble Is found In a treatment
which causes the food to be teadlly,
thoroughly digested before It has time
to ferment and Irritate the delicate
mucous surfaces of the, stomach. To
**cure a prompt and healthy digestion
la the one necessary thing to do, and
"hen normal digestion Is secured the
catarrhal condition will have dlsap-
l>ear<»d.
According to Dr. Harlanson, the
retest and best treatment I* to use aft.
«r each meal a tablet, composed of Dl-
*«tase. Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux,
Ooliien Seal and fruit ndds. These
tahlets can now be found at all drug
•tores under the name of Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets, andnot being a patent
medicine, ran be used with perfect
•afety and assurance that healthy ap
petite and thorough digestion will fol
low their regular uae after meals.
Air. R. s. Workman. Chicago. III*.,
"rites: -Catarrh Is a local condition
resulting from a neglected cold In the
read, whereby the lining membrane of
the nose becomes Inflamed and the
poisonous discharge therefrom passing
backward into, the throat reaches the
stomach, thus producing catarrh of the
•lomach. Medical authorities pre
scribed for mb for three years for ca
tarrh of stomach without cure, but to-
,la V I am the h8pplest of men after
using only ono box of Htuart's Dys

New York, Oct. 29.—The disaster of forty-three,
yesterday wa* close to the place where"
on July 30, 1890, a Philadelphia and
Reading "Flyer" •crashed .Into a West
Jersey and Seashore accommodation
train killing nearly fifty persons. The
two roads cross each other on the
meadow* 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
kilted outright, and serious injury to
fir,
Another disaster, though pot of the
same character,'was the dynamiting of
the Eastern Express on the Pennsyl
vania at Harrisburg on May 21, of last
year. A shunting engine on the ease
track caused a freight train on the east
track, to which a car of dynamite was
attached, to come to a sudden stop,
and the car to lean out over the west
hound track. The Eastern express
“sldeswlped" the dynamite car. Twen
ty dead and a hundred Injured was the
result of this accident.
MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP
DID N07 ENTER AS ISSUE
IN MARIETTA ELECTION
Special to The Georgian.
Marietta, Qa, 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 872 registered votes only 270
votes were polled, 250 votes being cast
In favor of waterworks and 270 1 for
sewerage. While sewerage bonds re
ceived 20 more votes than the water
works. they still lacked 178 vote* of
receiving the two-thirds necessary to
carry. The failure of the sewerage
bond* to carry In the face of the fact
that they were strongly supported by
tlte 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 Issue In tbs 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.

Juries in the Atlantic City railroad

their live* to the' heroism and cool

"The door flew open and half of the
fortunate people who are now alive

through this door," said he. "I wa*
standing.on the rear platform and saw-
just what happened at that door."
Regarding the speed of the train. Mr.
Joseph said: ,
"It was running at a good clip at It

notice any apparent slackening In A he
speed as the front end of the train
dashed over the trestle work. There
did not seem to be any confusion In
the rear car until It pitched from the
