120 IS DEATH TOLL
IN TRAIN WRECK;
98 BODIES FOUND
District Attorney Declares the
Crash Due to Recklessness
• of "Green" Motorman
| New York, Nov. 2.—Ninety-eight
i bodies had been removed early to
j day from what is known as the
Malbone Street "tunnel" on the
! Brighton Beach line of the Brooklyn
i Rapid Transit Company where a five
( car train running at high speed jump
|ed the track on a curve and struck
' the side wall with such terrific force
] that the first car was demolished and
the others "buckled" until they were
j Jammed against the roof qf the tun
-1 nel. The train, which carried nearly
900 passengers, was in charge of a
i "green" motorman.
Rescue workers declared they be
| iieved more bodies were buried under
• the wreckage and that the death list
!of men, women and children might
| reach 120. Probably twice that many
j were injured, many of them seriously,
j District Attorney Lewis, of Kings
) county, declared the accident was
I dud to recklessness on the part of
! the motorman employed as a train
j dispatcher and who had been pressed
I into service because of the strike
I which went into effect after the com
| pany had refused to reinstate 29 dis
j charged union employes.
"The motorman is gone," Mr.
Lewis said. "The claim adjusting
department appears to have kidnap
| ped him."
. Police Commissioner Enrlght echo
ed the assertion of Mr. Lewis. "The
I accident appears to have been the
result of a green motorman running
I his train at an excessive rate of
j speed. The police now are search
| ing for this man."
j Mr. Lewis said warrants would be
I issued for the arrest of all officials
of the corporation who could be held
.! responsible for the disaster. An in-
I vestigation of the wreck is in pro
-1 gress at the offices of the Public
j Service Commission. J"he Brooklyn
| Rapid Transit Company had made no
j statement concerning the wreck and
i four hours after it occurred ignorance
) was professed of exactly what had
happened.
| The wrecked train was packed to
1 ihe gates with home-going nlen, wo
men and children. Service on the
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
| company's lines was materially re
' duced because of the strike and every
j train which left the Brooklyn bridge
was literally jammed by t.re thou
| sands of delayed residents of Brook
| lyn who almost fought to get abroad.
| Hours after the accident it was
j difficult to determine exactly how it
I! happened. The crash came in a dark
tunnel and the hysterical survivors
I were unable to give a coherent ac
l count of their experiences. Many of
. I them insisted that a second train haa
ploughed into the rear of the one
which had carried them and this was
I the theory of District Attorney Lewis
! until he had carefully sifted the evl
| dence at his command. He finally
determined, however, that only one
• train was involved.
, | Mr. Lewis and the police asserted
, j the train was running fully forty
, ! miles an hour when it took the curve
| and plunged into the concrete side
. ! wall of the tunnel. It was difficult
j for them to believe at first, they said,
[ 1 that there could have been such
heavy loss of life unless two trains
, had been involved. The tunnel was
' completed only recently and it was
. declared that only a motorman thor
oughly familiar with the line could
have negotiated the curve safely even
at moderate spped.
When the first car jumped the track
: it sideswiped the west wall and ran
along the ties for nearly one hundred
feet. The cars behind crashed through
it, then buckled against the roof and
: fell.
| The gloomy tunnel was 'quickly
• | converted into a shamble. The
i | wreckage burst into flames, increas
! ing the indescribable panic among
i I the passengers. Almost every pas
i senger in the first car was killed or
j desperately injured. Many of those
unable to drag themselves free of
! the wreckage are believed to have
; j been burned to death. Dozens of the
bodies removed were gharred beyond
I recognition and only a few of them
have been identified.
1 William Lewis, the train dispatch
-1 I er, pressed into service as a niotor,-
;! man, and Samuel Kussof, a guard on
! the train, were arraigned in a police
I court to-day on a charge of homicide
I and were held for examination on
' j Thursday. The magistrate refused to
1 j grant a request made by an attorney
I J for the transit company that the de
! fendants be admitted to bail.
i j Lewis told Mayor Hylan and the
: I District Attorney to-day he went to
II work at 5 o'clock yesterday morning
JI as a train dispatcher and that at 4.30
, { in the afternoon he was assigned as
j | a motorman on the Brighton Beach
line, being willing, after nearly
twelve hours of work, to take this
' new job because he wanted to earn
extra money for his family.
When his train was moving down
grade toward the funnel, just prior to
the accident, it was going thirty
miles an hour, Lewis Is alleged to
have explained to the authorities,
and he was unable to decrease its
! speed because the breaks did not
I seem to work properly. Lewis de
| clared he rescued several women be
| fore he became panic-stricken and
. fled from the tunnel. He is 25 years
old.
It was reported that a citizens'
committee was being organized to
ask the government to assume fed
eral control of the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit.
