ONE OF THE ENGINEERS KILLED ABOUT A DOZEN PEOPLE INJURED, BUT NONE FATALLY. ONE FIREMAN'S NARROW ESCAPE. Mall Agent McSurdey Among the List of Injured Fireman Brosius Says He Warned Engineer Beaver to Stop Both Engines Wero Badly Wrecked. Hpeclnl to Bvunisci Ill:l:,u.n. Mahanoy City, Sept. 17, 3 p. m. Ono man killed and about a dozen injured is tho tory of tho terrible wreck which occurred here at tho P. & It. crossing of tiio Lehigh Valley railroad, a short distance abovo the Lehigh Valley station, at l:2tt this afternoon. The unfortunate man killed is James Reaver, of Fiuckville. Ho was an extra en gineer on P. & R. engine No. 112, which was running "empty." Georgo Urosius, of Fr.ickville. fireman of tho samo engine, had tho left sido of Ids face and head badly cut, and his f.uo was i.calded Ills body was also injured. James Shall'er, engineer of the Lehigh Valley engine, was injured about tho face, his left liaud was badly cut and both ids logs wero injured. A number of tho passengers on tho Lehigh Valley train wero slightly injured. Many were thrown from siuo to sulo iu tiio car and somo over the backs of scats. S. O. McCurdy, of Sunbury, mail agent on the Lehigh Valley train, was injured about the legs and sustained a severe gash over ono of his eyes. Ono woman whoso name could not bo learned was hurled bodily over a seat and in falling her head struck the car heater. She sustained a number of cuts on the forehead and both sides of tho face. Her name could not bo learned. It has since been ascertained that she resides at Delano. She was removed to tho homo of friends in Shoemakers. Tho accident happened iu this way : Lo high Valley passenger tmin No. 1, drawn by cngino No. 07 In charge of Lugliiccr James Shaffer and Fireman Harry Folweiler, duo 1:11 p. m., was behind time on account of a delay at Park Place caused by a wait on tmin going cast. Tho train vas running at a very rapid rate to make up time. When near Spocklo's boiler shops and several yards from tho crossing tho Lehigh engineer noticed tho & 11. engine coming out from behind tho boiler shops towards tho crossing with no cars attached. Ho blew his whlstlo and put down brakes, but could not avoid the collision, Conductor Georgo Keating was awaiting tho arrival of the P. &. 11. engine ou the otlic sido of tho crossing. Urosius, tho P. & R, fireman, saw tho approach of tho Lehigl train. Reaver, tho cngiueor, could not see it, on account of tho boiler shops cutting oil' hi view Rrusius called to his partner, Shaffer, Hero comes tho Lehigh train. You had better stop." At this time tho P. .4 R. engine was about 35 feet from tho crossing. Instead of apply ing tho steam to his brakes Jieaver must havo put on more speed to try and get over the crossing ahead of the Lehigh train. Tho fireman jumped up on tho tank of hii cngino and this accounts for escapo from death. When the two engines struck each other ono was thrown ono way and the othc in another direction. Heaver fell under his engine and was pinned under it about an hour beforo ho could be extricated. John Grant, of Shenandoah, was ono of the Lehigh passengers, but escaped injury. Tho train referred to abovo was duo here at 1:40 p.m. It arrived hero at 3:83 drawn by an extra cngino scut down from Delano, tho wreckago being cleared from tho tracks at Mahauoy City in tho meantime.
