Terrible OolHuion Between a Motor and

An accident took place yesterday after
noon OH South Main street , Council Bluffs.
In which ono mnn lost his Hfo and four others
wcro more or less seriously Injured :
11 I' . UUtiMKH , bookkeeper for Aultman ,
Miller tt I'n. , was Instantly killed.
Miss MAUD BUI-ANT , stenographer Kock
Island freight ofllco , dangerously bruised.
I. K. Bixnv and J. W. HOYMAN , employes
of Sterling Manufacturing company , seri
ously bruised.
Gnomic BUKKC , motor conductor , bruised
about head and face. ,
It was about 2 o'clock when Main street
motor No , 5 , in charge of Conductor George
Burke and Motorman Hcrinin Parr , approached
preached the corner of Eleventh avcnuo ,
where the Burlington tracks cross those of
the motor company. In addition to the em
ployes of the I'omnatiy nbavo mentioned
there * wcro on board Miss Maud Bryant ,
stenographer for J. A. Halt In the Hock
Island freight depot , J. K Bl.xby nnd J. W.
Hoyman , two men In the employ of the Ster
ling Manufacturing company , and E. F.
Ilolmos , bookkeeper for 'tho firm of Ault
man , Miller & Co. All wcro Insldo the car.
As the motor approached the crossing a
Burlington fieight train , consisting ot an
ciiglno and twcnty-nluo box cars , drew up
from the south. The testimony of bystanders
Isa to the effect that the motor was going at
a high rate of speed up to within twenty
feet of the crossing , while the freight train
moved at the rate of about four miles an
hour. The view off to the southeast , in the
direction of the train , was entirely unob
structed , nnd the motor man standing on the
front platform must have seen It ut least a
hundred feet from the crossing , If ho had
been attending to his business.
Stopped nnd Stiirtcd.
C. Koc , a teamster , who stood less than 203
feet away and witnessed the whole affair ,
gave the following account of It :
"Tho motorman , as ne.ir as I could make
out , seemed to catch sight of the freight
train all of a sudden and tried to shut off the
current. Ho almost stopped the car , but
suddenly turned the current on again and
the car shot on as If the motorman was
determined to got across ahead of the
freight. At that tlmo the two trains were
not over fifteen or twenty feet apart. " - _ _ 3
The front platform of the motor had
scarcely passed the crossing when there
was a crash that was heard for blocks. The
two trains had collided , and the scene pre
sented an Ilistant later was 0110 of wreck
and confusion. The motor car lay Just
south of the track , smashed to fragments ,
while thrco of the freight cars , hurled from
the track , landed on top of the wreck of the
motor. Three of the passengers , Miss
Bryant , Blxby and Hoyman , wcro recovered
from the wreck in a few minutes , each
almost senseless , and were taken to the
ofllco of D.xvid Bradley & Co. near by ,
where their wounds were b.ithed nnd they
wcro put in readiness to bo removed to their
homes.
HoVus Iintantly Killed.
Ono passenger was missing , and a slight
investigation resulted in the discovery that
Holmes had met an instant death. The top
of his head protruded from beneath ono of
the freight cars that lay on its side. The
body was allowed to remain until the cor
oner had been called to view it , when it was
removed to the undertaking rooms of W. C.
Estop , where an inquest is to be held at 2
o'clock this afternoon. It was mangled al
most beyond recognition.
Burke , the conductor on the motor line ,
was also considerably bruised about the
head and face.
Until recently it has been a rule of the
company that conductors passing the Bur
lington or Northwestern tracks on South
Main street and Broadway must get out and
run ahead of their trains , to signal their
motormen whether to go or stop. Oflatoit
has been noticed that this rule lu > s had
very slack recognition. If Burke had been
abend ot his train , ho would not have been
in the collision. Ho claimed , however , to
have signaled Parr , the motorman , three
times to stop , but for some reason or other
Parr failed to do it. In accounting for that
fact a few moments after the accident Parr
stated that the tracks wcro so wet that the
wheels slipped and he could not stop.
The fact that there v/as no flagman sta
tioned at the crossing by the Burlington
company caused some adVeiso criticism , but
W. J. Davenport , the local agent of the company -
pany , states that the motormen never rcc-
ognuo any signals , cither from the Burling
ton flagmen or from the Northwestern , but
are compelled by the rules of their company
to do their owu signaling ;
I.CKgon of the Accident.
Wherever the blame lies , the accident
emphasizes the need of Kates nt this cross
ing and aUo at the Northwestern on Broad
way. At both places trains are constantly
passing , and It Is only a matter of sheer luck
that fata ! accMcnts have not occurred
boforo. The grossest negligence has been
manifested by all the parties concerned , nnd
criminal carelessness Is the mildest term
thr.t can bo used , Tlio traglo occurrence of
yesterday ought to be enough to arouse the
city council to a sense of its responsibility in
the matter , especially in view of the fact
that live of the eight members of the council
were pledged at the last election to sea that
the eltUens were given proper safeguards at
crossings of railways with tlio motor com
pany.
An Interesting foatur-of the accident Is
that ItR reference to the payment of the
premium on a { , r > ,000 Insurance policy which
Holmes had In the Hartford Annuity com
pany. It seems that Just before starting out
on the trip \\hlch was to nrovo his last ho
went into the Council Bluffs Savings
bank nnd bought n draft for the
amount of the premium , which comes '
duo today. He put the draft In his
pocket , intcndlnc to mall it when he reached
the ofllco , ( > . M. Bally , n friend of Holmes
and an employe of the postal department ,
got possession of the draft and sent it , off
yesterday afternoon immediately after the
accident and T , J , Evans , who stood by ami
saw Holmes buy the draft , will bo called
upon to testify , if necessary , that the send
ing of the draft was not a patched up affair
to beat the Insurance company.
Condition of tlio Injured.
Dr. Green , the motor company's physi
cian , was summoned to look after all the in
Jurcd ones immediately after the accident.
Ha stated last evening that all of the
patients were apparently doing well , but it I
was impossible to toll what ml ht develop
ns there U always a great deal of uncer
talnty about railway accident cases.
Miss Bryant was feeling somewhat
better last evening , and further improvement
mont is looked for today.
BUby seems to have been injured in
tcrnally , and is spitting blood.
Parr , the motorman , who was at first sup
posed to bo uninjured , is suffering In the
same way.
Burke is considerably bruised , and so i
Hoyman. Ktrango to say , there is not t _
broken bono in the whole outfit. All that is
feared is that the patients may have suffem
Internal injuries which may develop later on
Into something uioro serious than cow ap-
poars.
The accident is likely to result in a grea
k.deal of cx | > oiislvo litigation for the motor
company , aud competent authorities say tha
If thu company got * off with less than f 15 ,
POO as the result of yesterday'e tragedy It
may consider Itself rcry fortunate.

Prof. William Goetzcs band of 33
> ieccs heard hero yesterday with Cook
t Whitby's English circus , was , without
exception , the lincst wo have over lis
tened to. Their rendering of the classi
cal overtures of "William Tell" nnd
Somirnmide" delighted thousands at
the afternoon performance and in the
evening tlio magnificent strains of Wng-
nor's tremendous ' 'Tnnnhnusor" filled
the immense cnnvns , packed to the ring
bank , with enraptured auditors. Prof.
Muller , our Albany maestro , states that
there is but one other band in America
capable of playing this music at all , and
tnat is Giltnoro's. To musicians wo
Imvo only to say that this matchless or
ganization is composed of 5 clarionets , 2

nSnuntlon ut Ilia .Mother' * I'tincrnl.
In the pretty little city some few miles
cast of the watery dividing line between
Iowa and Nebraska and connected with this
city by an elcctrlo line there was laid to
rest at Falrview cemetery yesterday the
earthly remains of ono of the Crtfllcst pioneers
neers of this section of the country.
This was Mrs. HJarla Mynstcr , well known
to every resident of our sister city. She
came to Council HltitTs , when it was Kancs-
villo , away back in IW'J. Her pallbearers
were Attorney George F. Wright , John
Bern and others prominent in finan
cial circles of Council Bluffs ,
The chief mourners wcro the
deceased's ' only sou , W. A , Mrnstcr ,
some tlmo since of the car firm of luynstor
and Limit of Council Bluffs , and Cristo-
phorson , Mynstcr and I-huH In Omaha , his
children and grandchild run.
Everybody in both cities considered Mr.
Mynstcr a widower , but facts revealed
yesterday proved differently. The mother's
death occurred Friday and many \\ondcrod
wny the funeral nad been delayed. A lady
upon the arm of the son during the funeral
services furnished the solution.
Some two years ago Attorney Myn-
ster undertook n business and
pleasure 1 trip out west ostensibly to shoot
1i.
game and look after mining investments in
Idaho. Here , ns it Is now learned , Cjpld
touched him and made W , A. Mynstcr nnd
Mrs. Moore , a largo ranch owner and
wealthy widow of Idaho , man and wife. But
the t union was kept a secret locked up in the
breasts of the contracting parties.
t
The accomplished lauy is not n stranger to
thcso parts , having formerly resided
hero. ] Mr. Moore , her llrst hus
band 1 , at ono tlmo owned a con
siderable portion of what is now the busi
ness 1 part of Omaha , where the present Mrs.
Mynstcr , through inheritance , still lays
claim to some property. Why the marriage
was not made known sooner has not been
made public ns .vet.
The many friends of both parties In Omaha
and Council Bluffs , while s.vmuathizing with
Mr. Mynstcr in the sad bereavement of a
mother will congratulate him that ho has
chosen and gained n lady of much refinement
and character for his future life's companion.

At the last meeting of the Live Stock oxot
clmngo n committee was appointed to confer
with Manager Uabcock ot the Stock Yards
company , and , if inmlblc , to secure lower
rents In the exchange building. A member
of that committee was seen by a Hr.n re
porter jcstcrday , who said : "Wo have
had ono talk with Mr. Uabcock in regard to
lowering the rents , but ncro not given
any definite satisfaction. Ho said ho
would talk the matter over with
the directors of his company
at their next meeting , consequently wo can
not make our report until after that time.
\Vo have been corresponding with the com
mission men in Chicago and learn that wo
are payiijg Just iftiout double , everything
considered , what the men pay there and wo
do not propose to stand It nny longer. You
may state In the paper if you will that the
committee is open fora proposition from nny
person who Is willing to put up n building on
the opposite side of the track with olllcc
rooms suitable for our business. A bank
could occupy n place in the building nnd tt
hotel could also bo conducted in thu same
structure. Cheaper rent Is what the com
mission men want. "
Manager Uabcock was watted on and
stated that when the committee culled to
sco him they could not give any ilgurcs as
regarding rents paid by the Chicago com
mission men but that ho would give their
request duo consideration ; that ho Intends
to 1 curn the exact rents paid In Chicago and
present the matter to the directors of the
stock yards company nt the Juno meeting.
The commission men hero are positive In
their demand for cheaper rents and say if
they do not got what they want they will
make arrangements to move into other
quarters.
Mndo the Chief U'l.rni.
Special Officer John Morrissey was ar
rested yesterday on n warrant from Judge
Fowler's court charging1 him with commit
ting an assault upon Fred Jones. Morrlssoy
is employed as watchman or special police
man at Swift's. Jones went over to the
packing house , he claims , to look for work.
Momsscv ordered him out and knocked him
down before he could get away. Morrissey
testified that Jones threatened him and
dared him to come outsldo before he slapped
him. Judge McCulloch of Omaha appeared
for Morrissey and City Attorney Van Duscn
prosecuted the caso. After all the evidence
was In Judge Fowler stated that It was clear
to htm irom the evidence that an unpro
voked assault had been committed by the
ofllcer and proceeded tojlno him $5 and costs.
After the suit and while Morrissey was
paying his line there came near being an
other scrap that was not on the program.
Chief UecUett attempted to give Morrissey
bomo advice when the latter told him to at
tend to his own affairs and ho would do well.
This made the chief warm under the collar ,
and had it not been for the interference ol
Judge Fowler there wo-dd have been onleial
gore scattered all over the police court
room. It is not improbable that Beckett
and Morrissey will yet have a go if a favor
able opportunity presents itself , as thcro is
bad blood between them.
