EIGHTEEN PEOPLE KILLED
Ten Others Will Die as the Result of aCollision Between a Train and a
Trolley Car
Cohoes N Y Sept 6 An appal-ling
¬
disaster occurred in this cityShortly before 8 oclock a trolley carof the Troy City Bailroad Co wasstruck by the night boat special of theDelaware Hudson railroad at acrossing at the west end of the Hudsonriver bridge which connects this citywith Lansingburg and its load of hu¬
man freight was hurled into the airEighteen of the 35 passengers are deadand at least ten of the remainder willdie
The cars entering the city fromLansingburg were crowded with pas-sengers
¬
returning from a Labor daypicnic at ILensslaer park a pleasureresort near Trov Car No 192 of thethe Troy City railroad was the victimof the disaster It came over thebridge about 735 oclock laden with amerry party of people fresh from theenjoyment of the day
Four tracks of the Delaware andHudson road which runs north andsouth at this point cross the twotracks of the trolley road
The tracks of the street line run ata grade from the bridge to the pointwhere the disaster took place
In consequence of this fact and ofthe frequent passage of trains it hasbeen the rule for each motor car conductor to stop his car and go forwardto observe the railroad tracks and sigaal his car to proceed if no trainswere in sight It can not be ascer-tained
¬
whether that rule was compliedwith- - on this occasion for all eventsprior to the crash are forgotten bythose who were involved
The motor car was struck directly inthe center by the engine of the trainwhich was going at a high rate ofspeed The accident came withoutthe slightest warning The car wasupon the tracks before the trainloomed in sight aud no power onearth could have saved it The motorman evidently saw the train ap ¬
proaching as he reached thetrack and opened his controllerbut in vain With a crash thatwas heard for blocks the enginestruck into the lighter vehicle Theeffect was horrible The motor carparted in two both sections beinghurled into the air in splinters Themass of human itj-- for the car wascrowded to overflowing was torn andmangled Those in the front of thecar met with the worst fate Theforce of the collision was there exper-ienced
¬
to the greatest degree and everyhuman being in that section of the carwas killed
The scene was horrible Bodies hadbeen hurled into the air and theirheadless and limbless trunks werefound in some cases 50 feet from thecrossing v
v
The pilot of the engine was smashedand amid its wreckage were tho maim-ed
¬
corpses of two womenThe passengers of the train Suffered
no injury in addition to a violentshock
The majoritj of the passengexs otthe trolley car were young peopleThey included many women
Within ten minutes after the col-
lision¬
fully one half of the populationof the city were surging about thevicinity in an endeavor to ascertain ifrelatives were among the unfortu-nates
¬
The injured weve taken to the cityhospital and to the Continental knit¬
ting oiill the former not having suffi¬
cient ambulance service to caft forthem all
The corpses were placed in boxesand taken to a neighboring mill shedMany of them were unrecognizableThe crash was frightful in its resultsHeadless women with gay summerdresses bathed in their own and thebloed of others limbs without trunksor any means of identifying to whomthey belonged womens and mensheads with crushed and distorted fea¬
tures bodies crushed and flattenedthese sights constituted a spectaclemost horrible t behold
The train of the Delaware and Hud ¬
son road immediateh1- - after the acci-
dent¬
proceeded to Troy The en-
gineer¬
stated that he did not see thecar until he was upon it He tried toprevent his train from striking thecar but his efforts were fruitless Histrain was going at a very high rate ofspeed at the time
He was some minutes late and wastrying to make up lost time In con-
sequence¬
of the caution taken by thetrolley road to ascertain if the trackswere clear at this crossing the engi-neers
¬
of trains have always felt safein running by at a high rate of speedThe engineer says that the first heknew that the car was comingwas when it hove in sight atthe corner of the street at which thecrossing is situated He was but ashort distance from the car at thetime It was utterly impossible forhim to brine his train to a standstill
