and bore tho brakeman into tho train despatched ofilco and laid him on tho floor An ambulance surgeon from the Chatber Street Hospital pronounced him skull was fractured How the accident happened can only ho con- jectured ¬ The employees of the road said that BO far as they know Lanlgan could have had no business on tho roar platform TOo chains that close the passage from ono car to another when not In use wero up It is thought that the bell rope that Is fastened on tho rear rail may have becomo loosened and that Lanlgan was fastening it when tile train started and that he had been thrown over tho railing on tho track He may have retained consciousness enough to clutch tho Iron railing I Another theory is that ho was leaning over the chains shutting oil the valve on tho rubber steam pipe with one hand while he clung to tho Iron rail with tho other hand He may havo lost his balance and toppling over struck his head violently against tho platform of tho car It is more likely that In loaning from the platform he struck his head against a post supporting the roof at Chatham square station the police of the City Hull station nOlllel tho I police of the proclnol In which man lived
