Assuming you have logged in your Gmail account on your galaxy 4. Your contacts & calendar are already backed up to Gmail server. You can easily get access to them by logging into your Gmail account through your PC and click on Gmail icon at top left of your screen -> select Contact. For calendar click on square tiles at top right of screen and select calendar.
You can get the contacts and Calendar details on your Iphone also by logging the same gmail account to your IPhone which you had used in your broken S4.
Do you have a Windows or Mac box to connect it to? Samsung has http://www.samsung.com/us/kies/ which will let you grab the info off via a USB cable - screen only required if it has a lock on it.
