Name Street City State Coroner's Jury On Fatal Accident Case Returns Verdict That the death of Stephen C. Schilling, the Hollidaysburg man who was killed at New Portage Junction one mile west of Hollidaysburg, on the evening of October 9, was unavoidable, wus the verdict, rendered by the coroner's Jury at the Inquest held on Saturday night at the undertaking rooms of Fred J. AVolf at Hollidaysburg. The Inquest was conducted by Coroner Chester C.

Rothrock of Altoona, who impaneled the following citizens as jurors: W. R. Gaiuufe, foreman; Frank X. Meintel, II. A.

Elliott, John E. Kltzinger, Mahlon Crawford and Charles A. Marks. The fatal accident occurred at the point known as Lock's Crossing, a short distance east of the New Portage Junction station, the car in which Mr. Schilling and his wife were riding, was struck by the engine hauling passenger train No.

62U9, going toward Altoona. Schilling was killed and his wife severely Injured. Several eye witnesses to the accident Including Ellis Dodson, Frank Irwin, Mrs. Hetrick, Earl Wilson, stated that they saw the headlight of the locomotive and 'heard the train whistle for the station and shortly after a warning signal of short blasts was given. None saw the automobile on the crossing, they testified.

Miss Alice Lock testified that she was sitting at her home nearby when she heard the warning whls ties and saw the flames from the burning automobile and ran imme dlately to the scene and saw the headlight of the engine casting a light a long distance in front. Charles Fornawalt, the fireman on the engine, stated that after the engine rounded the turn about 800 feet from the station, he saw car on the crossing and that it seemed to stop and go backward a short dis tance. He -told of the whistle for the station being given, also the warning whistles, when the automobile was seen. The crossing cannot be seen until the curve is rounded. D.

P. Shaffer, the engineer, stated that he first applied the service brake when he whistled for the station and then seeing the automobile after rounding the bend Immediately applied the emergency brakes, doing all in his power to bring the train to a quick stop. He said the electric head light had failed earlier in the evening and the oil lamp was being used which he said is much stronger with the reflector than was the old style lamp. When Mr. Shaffer was asked In what space an engine could be stopped, he replied, it is impossible to tell as conditions are not always the same, weather conditions figuring largely In this matter.

He said the light was sufficiently strong to see the car on the tracks and that It was moonugnc at me time ana tne car couId have been seen without a headllght. A statement given to Coroner Rothrock last week by Mrs. Schilling, who is still confined to the hos pital, was read by Foreman Gamble; i Mrs. Schilling stated that the car was proceeding over the crossing in low gear, and that the night seemed very dark and she did not see any headlight or hear the whistle of the locomotive. She said one of the windows of the car was open and that the car was moving over the crossing when struck.

The only light she saw was the sparks from the wheels of the engine when it was close to them. She and her husband had crossed this place many times, she said, in all kinds of weather. The verdict of the jury reads: "We find the death Stephen C- Schilling senger train No. 6209 leaving Holli- daysburg station at 7:09 in the evening of October 9, 1924, that is commonly known as the McCahan or Lock crossing, near New 'Portage Junction. After hearing the evidence, we conclude that the killing of Mr.

Schilling was unavoidable." FINAL DECISION ON CHACO PLANT TODAY (From Fags 1) Renting more than half of the stock in the corporation.

Kep-pelman, of Reading, legal representative of a number of stockholders, and the law firm of Reed, Shaw, Smith and McClay, Pittsburg.

Patterson, Hollidaysburg, ancillary receiver for the corporation.
