EIGHT KILLED AND
THIRTY INJURED
Work Train Wrecked On the New
Haven Road.
WRECKAGE TAKES
THE FIRE.
Fast Passenger Train Crashes Into a
Car Containing Between Forty and
Fifty Workmen and Nearly All Are
Killed or Hurt—Cause of Accident
Not Determined
Hartford, Ct. (Special). — Eight
workmen were killed and over 30 in-
jured when a passenger train on the
Highland Division of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford Railroad
crashed into the rear of a work train
that was backing into the city from
New Britain at the Sigourney Street
crossing. Of the injured two proba-
bly will die.
Some of the victims within
reach were dead, but were left while
the rescuers tried to extricate the
living. In one instance it took an
hour and a half to rescue one work-
man who was pinned between the
trucks. His head was hanging down
backwards and he suffered gaverely,
but the rescuers encouraged him,
while doctors reached between the
frame work which held him a pris-
oner and treated the wounds on the
face and head. :
There are three unofficial versions
of the cause of the wreck. One
that the passenger train for New Bri-
tain went out on a wrong track
The second is that the work train
ad the right of way until 7 o'clock,
