GEORGE SCHREIHART FATAL MISHAP AT DOCKS OF THE REISS COMPANY George Schreihart, 41, Dies of Suffocation When Buried Under Vast Piles Buried under tons of sliding coal which caught him when he sought to investigate the operation of a clam which was digging into the frozen piles on the docks, George Schreihart, 41, met death by suffocation today. Schreihart was caught in the slide at 10:45 and when his body was taken out at 12:30 after heroic efforts to effect a rescue in time to save him, he was dead. The body was taken to the Pfeffer morgue after four physicians had failed in attempts to resuscitate him and funeral arrangements await word from relatives out of the city. Mr. Schreihart had been employed at the Reiss docks for a number of years. Every Effort to Save Man. Albert Jagodinsky, an oiler at the docks, is the only man who saw the accident that caused the death of Mr. Schreihart and he gave the alarm at once. All operations at the docks were halted while every man was ordered to assist in the efforts to reach the buried man and if possible, rescue him. The big clam which was at work and which had loosed the coal in which the unfortunate man was engulfed was moved to assist in the work while city firemen and police department employees gave their assistance. For nearly two hours, the work was carried on systematically and with all speed but when the body of Mr. Schreihart was finally uncovered, it was apparent that he was dead, and this was established by physicians who utilized every known means to restore life. Warned of Danger. Employees of the docks have been constantly warned of the dangers of going on the docks when the clam is working, especially as it was today on frozen piles of coal, but it is believed that Mr. Schreihart’s curiosity to see the work, led him to the fatal step. According to Mr. Jagodinsky who saw Schreihart just as he turned to flee when the clam loosed some of the coal and the side from the huge pile started. Schreihart made an effort to escape by running but he was engulfed by the huge avalanche and unable to reach safety. When workers uncovered the body, Schreihart was found face downward, his arm covering his face, indicating that he had sought to protect himself. Mgr. Murphy of the Reiss Company who directed the efforts to rescue the imprisoned man, expressed deep regret over the tragedy and said that he was unable to explain why Schreihart familiar with company orders, should have gone onto the dock while the clam was at work. “We have always advised employees to keep off the dock and from the piles because of the danger and Mr. Schreihart was an old employee and I cannot imagine what led him to do it today,” said Mr. Murphy. Leaves Young Daughter. Mr. Schreihart was born in this city, February 21, 1887 and was a son of John P. Schreihart, retired rural mail carrier of the city. He attended the local schools and had been employed at Reiss docks for a number of years. He was married sixteen years ago to Hildegarde Kletzien of Sheboygan, who died two years later, leaving a little daughter, June, the only survivor of the family. Besides his daughter and parents, with whom he made his home, Mr. Schreihart is survived by four sisters, Mrs. L. E.
