BANKRUPTCY NOTICE
Find Engineer
Dead at Throttle
of Fast Train
Prompt Action of Fireman Averts a
Collision on the Milwaukee
Road in Missouri.
Kansas City Passenger train No.
3 of the Milwaukee railroad thun
dered southward toward Excelsior
Springs late on Saturday with a dead
engineer at the throttle and only the
quick action of the locomotive's fire
man in stopping the train averted a
rear end collission with a freight
train. The incident became known
Sunday when the family of the dead
engineer, George F. Robinson, sixty
eight, expressed the wish to give the
fireman, E. E. Milburn, credit for
saving Mr. Robinson's perfect forty
nine year record with the railroad
from being marred.
The train, from Ottumwa, la., was
due at Excelsior Springs at 4:51
o'clock. A freight train running
ahead of the passenger, was sched
uled to take the siding to clear the
main line for the faster train. Eight
miles east of Excelsior Springs, Mil
burn was surprised to see the train
rounding a curve ahead and not yet
completely on a side track.
When the passenger train did not
slacken, Milburn shouted across the
pab, and then was startled to see
Robinson slumped in his seat. Mil
burn leaped across the cab, closed the
throttle and applied the air brakes.
The train slowed down sufficiently to
allow the freight to get into clear on
the siding.
Milburn then ran the train into
the Excelsion Springs yards where
another engineer entered the cab,
and the run to Kansas City contin
ued. The passengers left the train
at the Union station here without
knowing what had occurred.
Mr. Robinson died of heart dis
ease. Dr. TV. L. Wysong. Clay count'
coroner, decided State Journal.

Lincoln, March 24. A stockhold
er's attempt to regain illegal taxes
paid the Lincoln school district by
a corporation met defeat in district
court here Monday.
If the decision is sustained, the
school district will be allowed to
retain more than $25,000 collected
under the unconstitutional intang
ible tax law of 1925.
Judge Shepherd basde his deci
sion on the contention that stock
holders in corporations cannot take
what is profitable from such a re
lationship and reject the unprofitable.
When the corporation paid the
taxes without knowledge of the
stockholders, it failed to protest or
demand return of the taxes within
30 days as required by law. Verna
Crider. one of the stockholders, filed
the suit.
