trains collided in a dense fog on the Hackensack meadowa.

Passengers on the rear car of the

ed against iron uprights and some

were cut by flying glass.

Several of the eteen cars were so

smashed that it was nece?3iry to

send a wrecking train to the ectne

cult. as the wreck occurred at a

spot whero the track cro33 a swamp

known as tne meaaow. The more seriously hurt were placed on a. relief train and rushed o Jersey City where ambulances were waiting at the station to convey them to hospitals.
