Tliiriy-Two Are Injured in Terrible Accident at Bridge anil Macy Streets and Two More May Die as Besnlt of Wounds In a street car wreck at Macy and Bridge streets at 7 o'clock yesterday morning, caused by a defective brake, W. A. Barrett, 45 years old and an electrician em ployed by the Pacific Electric Railway company, was instantly killed. Henry M. Freitag, a line man employed by the same com pany, was so badly injured that he died ft* the Sisters' hospital at 10:30 o'clock last night. Two others are so seriously injured that death is expected at any mo ment. In all, 33 persons were vic tims of the wreck. ' In an attempt to ' place the blame for the Brooklyn hill street car wreck of yesterday morning In which one man was killed and thirty-two Injured, the public board of Investigation j recently appointed by business men of Los An geles to Investigate the Redondo and other street railway' catastrophes, will probably begin Its examination Mon day morning, when Coroner Trout will hold Inquest over the body of W. A. Barrett, one victim of the wreck.. : . . Barrett's body was sent to Pierce Brothers' undertaking rooms following the accident yesterday morning and subpoenas have already been served on the car crew, commanding their presence at* the Investigation. , When asked about. the cause of the accident yesterday the railway offi cials of the Los Angeles .Interurban company, shrugged their' shoulders with that, one-of-those-unforeseen-oo currences manner and stated that they knew little about the wreck and that the motorman could probably give a better account of the cause than they. Say Motorman li to Blame It has been . the same • old story In every one of the frightful .. street car catastrophes of the pait year in which many ■ lives . have been lost and hun dreds of people Injured. The officials of the street car. companies have al ways , refused to make any 1 Intelligible statement of an ■ accident ' and ' have regularly tfugsested that the motorman or the conductor was wholly to blame. In the case of the wreck at the North PRICE: SINGLE COPY 5 CENTS Buena Vista street hill the officials suggested the motorman until it was learned that the . couplings of the brakes were in an unfit condition. In the catastrophe at the - crossing of Sierra: Madre, several weeks ago, the company blamed the conductor and a warrant was Issued for him, but no explanation was made why incom petent men were put to work 1 on so dangerous, a run as the Sierra Madre division. ■ . In the Redondo wreck the men were again ; blamed, one Is now under ar rest and a warrant Is out for another, but. the company hands out the stereo typed answer to all questions: "It was one of those unforeseen ac cidents which happen to all great rail ways." > Lineman Badly Mangled According to the statements of busi ness men who will demand a complete Investigation and may take the case before the present grand Jury, the un foreseen occurrences hava been hap pening rather regularly of late so they can at least be expected If not actually foreseen. ' . Yesterday afternoon at the Sisters' hospital In a vain effort to save the life of Henry H. Preltag, a lineman In the I employ i of the I Pacific • Electric company, who was frightfully Injured during the accident, an operation was performed upon him and both legs am putated. He died at 10:80 o'clock last night. John Mulder,' another of the seriously Injured, Is In a critical con dition and his recovery is doubtful. - Miss May Murray, a third seriously Injured victim. Is also In a critical con dition, and her recovery Is doubtful. ■'. As for the ■ others, and there. 1 are about forty of them who 'have injuries ranging all the way from cracked heads and fractured bones down to scratches and cuts from flying glass and shock they are keeping quiet and preparing damage suits as balm for their In juries.
