The Puit a rosuIt the acci- dent at niey street crossing in Kendallville last January 4 in which Lucile Miller and Irene Diehl, both of Auburn, were killed and Miss Squires was injured.

Mr. Satovsky, who is an Auburn merchant, was driving his five passenger touring car at the time, with the three girls mentioned and three others. Lavornia Squires and Ethel-wyn Platter of Auburn, and Cyril Griffith of South Bend, as his passengers. The girls had accompanied him when he went to Kendallville after a basket ball game in Auburn to take Mrs. Violet Thompson to her home in that city.

They had started back to Auburn when the ailtomo- bile was struck by a freight train. Miss Squires was sitting in the rear seat of the car with her sister, Miss Miller and Miss Diehl. She declares that Satovsky approached 'the Riley street crossing from the north "at a high and negligent rate of speed and in a careless and negligent manner." Just as the car reached the tracks a locomotive and train of cars without lights came from the east at a speed of sixty miles an hour. The complaint, prepared by the plaintiff's attorney, W. W.

Sharpless, says the steam was shut off and the train approached from behind buildings near the right-of-way which obstructed the view from the crossing to the east; that the tiainiui'ii "negligently failed to sound the whistle or ring the bell on the locomotive or to give any signal whatever of the approach of the train." It is stated that because of the steam being "shut off the train could not lie heard for any distance and the plaintiff had no way of knowing that she was on or near a railroad track.
