LIVE WIRE PROVES FATAL
Charles Bloomqnist, Electrio Light Line
nan, ii Initantly Killed.
WORKING AT SUBSTATION AT THE TIME
Dodges Flash Caased by Short Clrcalt
and Falls Aaalast Wires tarry
Ins; Over Tot Theasana
Volts.
Charles Bloomqulst, a lineman In the em
ploy of the Clttsens' Gas and Electric com
pany, was electrocuted yesterday after
noon while working at the company's sub
station In the alley south of Broadway, be
tween Sixth and Pearl streets. His death
was evidently Instantaneous, although his
fellow workmen thought they noticed a
spark of life in him, and with the assist
ance of Drs. Beybert and Hombach worked
over him for nearly half an hour In a vain
effort to resuscitate him.
Bloomqulst, .with three other linemen,
was working n the wires entering the
substation at which the current Is re
ceived from Omaha and thence distributed
through the city. In front of the building
Is a framework supported by four poles,
across which the many wires are carried
to and from the building. Bloomqulst was
standing on a ladder to which he had
hitched his safety belt. In cutting a wire
to make a new connection a short circuit
In some manner was formed and this
caused a flash. Bloomqulst evidently
leaned back to avoid the flash and In so
dolrur came In contact with the heavy
voltage wires. He slipped from the ladder
and hung suspended by his belt. The three
men working with him at once went to his
assistance and lowered him to the ground.
They thought they noticed a slight respira
tion and proceeded to work over him and
In this were assisted by Drs. Hombach and
Beybert, who were quickly on the scene.
After working for nearly half an hour the
doctors pronounced the man dead and the
body waa taken to Cutler's undertaking
room. v
Bloomquist'a first finger on the left hand
was burned to the bone. Indicating that In
leaning back to avoid the flash caused by
the short circuit ha had caught' hold of an
other wire and a burn on the right arm be
tween the elbow anrt shoulder showed
where his body had come In contact with
another wire, thus forming a circuit for
the current of 2,300 volts.
Bloomqulst was a native of Sweden and
had been In the employ of 'the company
since August 26 last. He was, however, an
old-time lineman. He waa S4 years of age
and single.
Bloomqulst roomed and boarded at No.
18 North Eighth street. He Is'sald to have
a brother somewhere In the northwest and
friends In Omaha. Coroner Treyor will
hold an Inquest this morning at 10 o'clock
at Cutler's undertaking rooms.

Amends Ditch Injunction.
Logan Crawford yesterday filed an
amendment to the petition in his suit to
restrain the authorities of the two counties
from proceeding with' the construction of
the Harrison-Pottawattamie county drain
age ditches. In the amendment he alleges
that (the letting of the contract for the
construction or the ditches was fraudulent
and that there was connivance between the
contractors and the county auditors In
that the taxpayers will be called upon to
pa Iti.OPO more for the work than was ac
tually bid. He asks that the firm of R.
A. Brown ft Co. of Washington. Ind., which
secured the contract for the Allen and
Willow creek ditcheebe made party defend
ant to the suit.
The amendment also alleges that no bond

property owners payment of the damages
awarded them. This, he claims. Is contrary
to the provisions of the statutes allowing
the taking of property by eminent domain.
Land so sought to be taken. It Is contended,
cannot be seised or entered upon until the
damages have been paid.
The case Is set for hearing before Judge

for parts unknown.
LET CONTRACT FOR SIDEWALKS

Scarcity of Home Made
Brick.
Owing to the uncertainty of the brick
supply In Council Bluffs the city council
last night, In approving the contract with
John M. Harden for the laying of about
ten miles of brick sidewalk, decided tc
omit the clause providing for a penalty In
case the work was not completed In a
specified time. Nearly all of the brick made
In this city Is belrg used for street paving

provide for concrete base and this will
tend to leave a more plentiful supply of
homemade brick on the market.

NOW A MATTER ,0F MEMORY
Mayor Low days that He Certainly
Mlsnnderstood Intentions of
Comptroller Groat.
NEW YORK. Oct, 6. It la denied again
today that Comptroller Grout and President
Fornes of the Board of Education will
voluntarily withdraw from the fusion ticket.
The complication that has arisen over the
acceptance by them of the democratic
endorsement remains the major features of
the political situation In greater New York,
and the fight for and against them Is being
actively waged.
From democratic sources came the sug
gestion that the position of Grout and
Fornes could be strengthened by withdraw
ing entirely from the fuslonist movement
and from the democratic party,- and Leader
Murphy of Tammany, who managed the
coup under which they were endorsed, was
urged to see Grout and arrange the matter.
The plan Involved the acceptance of a
full fledtted nomination from the dAmnnrsts
and a positive line up against the fuslonist I
movement aunng tne campaign. 11 was
said that Leader Murphy favored the move
ment, but today Luke D. Btapleton, legal
adviser for Grout, again averted to the
Intention of his client to resist the erasure
of his name from the fuslonist ticket.
It IS down to a question of memory and
veracity between Mayor Low and Comp
troller Grout as to the former's knowledge
of the latter's plan to accept the demo
cratic endorsement. The mayor In reloiner
to the last letter of the comptroller rays
he has no recollection of the second of the
democratic endorsement of Grout
Here Is what the mayor SHld:
I have read the comptroller's statement
and 1 have no recollection, whatever, of
any such conversation such as he speaks
of. When everything has been said that
can be said, the facts remain that until mv
conference with Mr. Grout and Mr. Fornes,
on last Sunday morning, I had no apprecia
tion of any change in their attitude of
