NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, MAY 9, 1917. 22 HURT AS SUBWAY CAR JUMPS SWITCH IN WEST END TUNNEL Crashes Into Pillar of Iron and Concrete in 38th St. Cut Near 7th Avenue, SIDE OF STEEL CAR CRUSHED IN.

Five Men Taken to Kings Connty Hospital Seriously Injured--Night Workers Victims. Twenty-two persons were injuredsome of them severely--when a onecar train of the West End Line was derailed by a switch turned between its two trucks, in the Thirty-eighth street cut, near Seventh avenue, shortly after 3 o'clock this morning. The derailed car collided with such force against 8 supporting pillar of iron and concrete that its steel side was caved in and those who were not squeezed in the interior arrangement of the car were thrown violently about. The motorman of the car, William S. Earl of 453 Prospect avenue, was shot right through the glass door of the little box and landed on the tracks.

He miraculously escaped injury, The conductor, Frederick S. Peat, 45, of 4606 Sixth avenue, was crushed between the state of the car and one of the stanchions, and was severely 1 injured. He was rushed to the hospital. The car was well filled with about thirty men and one woman, most of whom were printers and others who work on the morning newspapers. The woman was not injured, and in the confusion that followed the crash she was the coolest of them all.

She calmly disentangled herself from twisted stanchions and seat uprights, climbed into the relief car and rode away. She declined to give her name, saying she was uninjured. The work of the rescue was particularly difficult, for all the lights in the car went out when it crashed into the pillar, just about twenty yards from where east-bound trains emerge from the tunnel that ends at Seventh avenue. The towerman at Ninth avenue, who heard the crash and made a hurried investigation, notified Lieutenant Joseph Betz at the Fourth avenue police station, who sent Sergeant Matthews and Patrolmen uynes and Stafford to the scene. He ordered all available doctors from Kings County Hospital to the scene, and Drs.

Reynolds, Martin, Johnson and Smith ar- rived a few minutes after the police. Doctors Sent Into Tunnel on Relief Train. The relief expedition went to the Ninth avenue station, where a train waiting to rush the police and doctors to the scene of the accident. A squad of railroad employees was quickly organized to help in the rescue work. With lighted lanterns, police, railroad men and doctors picked the injured persons from the wreckage of the car and placed mem aboard the relief train, which was rushed back to the Ninth avenue station with its cargo of wounded men and the lucky ones, who were anxious to get away from the scene.

One man had his spine severely injured, but he refused to go to the hospital and said he would go at once to his own physician, although the doctors advised him that he should be immediately treated. Five men, including the conductor, were taken to the Kings County Hospital. Two had broken legs and had fractured ribs and internal injuries. Several injured persons went home without treatment and refused their names. R.

T. officials were routed out of bed and at once began an investigation of the accident. It was said today at the railroad offices that for some reason the motorman, Earl, blew his whistle just as the train was emerging from the tunnel and the towerman who was operating the switches leading into the Thirty-sixth street layup yard, sudaenly threw his switch. He explained that he thought the car was bound into the yard. The first truck had already passed over the switch when it was turned and the tear truck slid around the curve of the track.

The side of the car struck the pillar of the wall that separates the east-bound local track and the express track. The impact was 80 great that the pillar came right through the side of the car, after caving it in. The men who sat on that side of the car were the most severely injured. The accident caused a complete tieup of the West End extension for more than an hour. Single track operation was resumed at daylight this morning and the early morning rush was considerably inconvenienced.

Later the damaged car was removed and the tracks were repaired and full service resumed. Among the injured were: Thomas Hodge, 53, 1135 Forty-fifth street, printer, spine injured; went home. In Kings County Hospital, Frederick S. Peat, 45, 4404 Sixth avenue, the conductor, cuts on face and body. Morris Ruderman, 28, 8699 Twentysecond avenue, operator, fractured rib, internally hurt.

Edward T. Johnston, 53, 1440 Fortyseventh street, printer, fractured rib. Anselino Garrilli, 43, 1232 Fiftyfourth street, fractured left leg. Schalak Fried, 40, 4401 Twelfth avenue, builder, fractured left leg, lacerations of head. Attended and Went Home.

(Special to The Eagle.) Albany, May 9-The Court of Appeals has handed down a decision, holding that the State can collect 8. transfer tax on one of the securities, valued at $33,000, held by the Brooklyn Trust Company for the joint benefit of the late Dr.

St. Clair McKelway and his widow, Virginia B. McKelway. The decision overrules the decisions of Surrogate Ketcham and the Appellate Division, both of which held that the property passed to Mrs. McKelway by operation of law, and not under Dr.

McKelway's will, and so was not subject to a transfer tax. The Court of Appeals, however, overruled this contention and remitted the matter to the Surrogate's Court for disposition in accordance with the opinion written in the case by Judge Pound. This opinion directs the Surrogate to tax one-half of the securities only, the agreement specified that one-half only belonged to Dr. McKelway and the other half to his widow. A law passed in 1915 makes joint holdings subject to taxation.

FILIBUSTER FAILS TO PREVENT PASSAGE OF APPORTIONMENT Cullen Calls Kings County Bill "a Shameful Gerrymander." Makes Hot Fight.

UPROAR IN STATE SENATE. Brooklyn Congressional Districts Bill Is Passed by Vote of 28 to 11. Albany, May 9-The most persistent and protracted filibuster that has been attempted in the Legislature in a decade failed to the passage in the Senate prevent, of the bill reapportioning the Congressional districts of New York and Bronx counties. The vote on final passage was 30 to 12, strictly on partisan lines. The bill was brought up under a special rule and for six hours the Democratic minority used every means known to parliamentary law to hinder its progress.

The fight lasted from 12:20 a.m. to 6:20 a.m., and immediately after final disposition a similar measure arranging the Congressional lines in Brooklyn was introduced under rules committee report and a second filibuster was begun. It was the announced intention of Majority Leader Elon R. Brown to hold the Senate in continuous session until the bills reapportioning the Brooklyn Congressional districts, all of the Senatorial districts in the State and the Aldermanic districts of New York had been passed. But for the fact that a cloture rule had been adopted shortly before the first reapportionment bill had been introduced the minority might have been able to delay passage indefinitely.

As it was, during the six hours that the New York Congressional districts were under consideration there were six separate roll calls, with virtually every member of the minority making a speech on each roll call. When the question of final passage was put to a vote the Senate was in an uproar and the remarks of many of the speakers were drowned in the racket caused by thirty pairs of feet kicking against thirty brass cuspidors. Wagner Calls Bill "a Shameful Gerrymander." Minority Leader Robert F. Wagner, who directed the filibuster, declared that the bill was a. "shameful gerrymander." He and others and the minority, including Senators Daily, Cotillo, Downing, Walker, Boylan, Cullen and Foley, asserted that the rearrangement of the district lines was designed to gratify the aspirations of Senator Ogden Mills for a seat in Congress.

It was explained that the reapportionment would reduce the two counties' representation in Congress by at least two members, with corresponding Republican gain. This, it was charged by the minority speakers, would be an unpatriotic act, in that it would deprive President Wilson of the support of those upon whom he was depending in a national crisis. Senators Brown and Mills argued briefly for the bill, but occupied but little of the Senate's time, the majority leader preferring to allow the Democrats to do most of the talking. The Brooklyn reapportionment, it was said, was designed to give the Republicans two additional Congressmen at the expense of the Democrats. The bill to reapportion the Senate districts was the same as the one passed last year, but rendered invalid by a decision of the Court of Appeals on account of an error in the arrangement of boundary lines in Manhattan.

Under this bill New York City and Westchester County each would gain one Senator at the expense of the upState districts. The rearrangement upState would throw Senators Whitney and Yelverton in the same district, and a similar condition would confront Senators Knight and Newton. Brooklyn Reapportionment Measure Passed by 28 to 11. Deposition of the Brooklyn Congressional reapportionment bill occupied only an hour and a half. Although the minority employed the same general parliamentary tactics to block advancement, the founts of oratory were nearly dry, and the members refrained from delivering speeches when responding to the various roll calls.

The bill was passed by a party vote of 28 to 11. Shortly after 8 a.m. consideration of the apportionment bills was abandoned temporarily while the Senate began clearing the calendar of noncontroversial matters.

The Manhattan Congressional apportionment bill changes the lines of the Fifteenth, Sixteenth, Seventeenth, Eighteenth, Twenty-first, Twenty-second and Twenty-third Congress Districts in such a way as to create three districts, where Republican candidates will stand a better chance of election. Incidentally it gerrymanders the lines of the Fifteenth--the district from which Thomas F. Smith, secretary of Tammany Hall, was elected to Congress in such a way as to throw him into the district from which Representative Peter Dooling is now serving.

This will mean the elimination of Smith after the next Congressional election because Dooling, being the senior, will probably have first chance at the nomination of the re-formed district. The Brooklyn Congressional reapportionment, characterized by Senator Cullen, of Brooklyn, as an "outrageous and disgraceful seeks to redraw the Congressional lines of Brooklyn SO that the Congress districts will be coterminous with the Senatorial lines. Incidentally, it so juggles the lines of the Congress districts that President Wilson will lose two of his Democratic supporters from Brooklyn in the next CongressHarry Howard Dale and James P. Maher -whose districts will be gerrymandered into Republican bailiwicks. At present there are five Democratic and three Republican Congressmen PERSONAL.
