ENGINEER AND FIREMEN CAUGHT IN WRECK
Trala Wa Late mm4 Dead Engineer
Waa Msklsg Effort to Hrgala Lost
Time Mall (lerka Are Koae
of Tkesa Iajared.
Burlington fast mall train No. ft, east
bound, crashed Into a string of Wabash
freight cars at the Wabash crossing last
evening, with the result that the engineer
and fireman of the fast mall were fatally
scalded, the locomotive turned over Into the
ditch and a number of the freight car
wrecked.
The dead:
N. If. WOODS, engineer of the fast mall.
Creston, Ia.
ED HOOSIER, fireman of the fast mall.
Creston. I.
The fast mall was one hour and fifty
five minutes late, and It Is aald In order
to make up time did not make the usual
stop at a point near the Milwaukee round
house, about a quarter of a mile from the
Wabash crossing. The string of freight
cars, which was being switched from the
transfer to the Wabash yards,' was goltwr
east and was about half way over the
crossing when the mall train dashed Into
It. The mall train struck between a car
loaded with grain and one loaded with
telephone poles, throwing the grain car to
the right of the track and the one laden
with telephone poles to the left. At a point
about thirty feet south of the crossing
the engine left the track and turned over
down the slight embankment, on Its side.
Engineer Woods was under the cab, and
It was some time before he could be re
leased, as a number of poles from a
wrecked freight car blocked the way. Ed
Hoosler. the fireman, managed to crawl
out from under the cab unassisted. Both
men were horribly scalded from the es
caping steam, and It was thought that
Woods would not survive until he reached
the hospital. The men were taken to
Mercy hospital, where Hoosler, who was
supposed to be the least Injured of the
two, died about t o'clock and Woods one
hour later. The accident occurred a few
minutes before ( o'clock.
Mall Clerks I ntsjnred.
None of the mall clerks received any In
Jury. With the exception of the first mall
car, which wa running dead and from
which the front trucks were torn off, the
car remained on the track. There waa no
body In the econd car except the conduc
tor, the mall clerks being In the third and
last car. One of the clerk happened to be
looking out of the door and when he saw
that the collision wa Inevitable he warned
the other to brace themselves which they
did.
The Wabash switch ehglne waa In charge
of Tardmaster P. H. Moran and he stated
that the fast mall failed to make the usual
stop near the Milwaukee roundhouse and
whistle. There were fifteen car In hi
train and the fast mall struck It about Ave
car from the engine.
It was stated that engineer Woods failed
to see the freight trlln on account of a
field of corn around which the track curves.
Whew the engineer noticed the string of
car on th crossing he closed the throttle
and reversed hi engine but too late to
avoid the crash. It wa found that he had
turned on the air and that the air brake
war all set except on the last mail car.
On hi way to the hospital In the ambu
lance Engineer Woods, who was In a seml
unconsdoua condition, kept muttering,
"Stick to the throttle."
A far a could be learned laat night the
locomotive of the faat 'mall waa not badly
damaged but four of the Wabash freight
car were badly wrecked. One car loaded
with grain burst In halve and fell In pieces
like th stave of a barrel from which the
hoop had been taken off. The grain from
two of the wrecked car covered the tracks.
For about forty feet each aide of th crow
ing the track were torn up and twisted.
The Wabash crossing Is near Twenty-
third avenue, south of the Rock Island and
Milwaukee yards, and It was fully an hour
after the accident before the ambulance
could reach the scene of the accident to
convey Woods and Hoosler to th hospital.
The mall car were pulled back to Omaha
and went east via Plattsmouth. th track
being blocked by wreckage.
cure the thief, Charles Bee be, as h I In
the penltentlsry at Lincoln, having been
committed there a few days ago from
Wahoo, where he pleaded guilty to soother
case of horse stealing. He wa sentenced

WARM TI4IE I TUB CITY COISCIL
Aldermaa Weaver Aaka for Investi
gation of t hararea.
The meeting of the city council last night
ws full of pyrotechnics snd Mayor Macrae
had repeatedly to wield his gavel to call
the aldermen to order. The flrM round of
fireworks was discharged when the ordi
nance Imposing a penalty of not to exceed
$20 for defacing or dnmaglng the Iron waste
psper boxes or for placing refuse In them
waa brought up. City Solicitor Snyder, In
an Impassioned protest urged that the
ordinance be laid on the table. The placing
Of the boxes on the sidewalks, he claimed,
was not a legitimate use of the public
streets and should not be protected. The
boxes, he ssld. If placed on the walks at all
should be there at the owner's liability.
Despite the protest of the city attorney the
ordinance waa passed, AJderman Olson
alone voting against It.
Aldermen Weaver and Ollbert, comprising
the committee In charge of the Indian
Creek dredge, demanded an investigstlon of
the charge that they had attached their
"O. K." to blank checks which had been
turned over to Foreman Brown to All out
with the time of the men working on the
dredge. Alderman Weaver accused Alder
msn Maloney of being responsible for the
charge, and some heated words passed be
tween the two until Mayor Macrae Insisted
on order being maintained. A committee
consisting of the mayor and Aldermen Tin
ley, Olson and Maloney was appointed to
Investigate. When the committee wa an
nounced Alderman Weaver announced with
considerable emphasis that he did not want
any whitewash.
An ordinance providing for the change
of grade on Broadway In the vicinity of
the Northwestern crossing and a resolution
permitting the raising ofthe tracks were
passed. These measures were necessary to
permit of the raising of the railroad'
bridge over Indian creek.

ONE OF SEVERAL CASES BEFORE GOVERNOR
Chief ExeratlT May Decide to Refer
Entire Matter af Capital Vanish
ment ta the La-ilatae for
Settlement.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Ia., Sept, 11. (Special.)
Anotner murderer has appealed to th
mercy of Governor Cummins, and still th
contention of the two parties of the sta;s
favoring capital punishment and opposing
It have not bad their answer.
The case of Joseph C. Smith was before)
the chief executive thl morning, and at
the end of a short hearing the chief ex
ecutive took the matter under advisement,
pending a thorough Investigation of th
affair.
The real Question at Issue In tl)l case.
aa In th BusBe case a week ago, Is capital
punishment in the state, and Governor
Cummin stated at the end of th Interview
this morning that he had been considering
the possibility of holding both the decision
In reserve until the legislature had a chance
to Investigate the condition and decide
th future of the criminal In the state.
Smith was convicted of on of the moat
cold-blooded murder In the history of the
tate. He waa thrown In )ail, unjustly on
Information sworn out by Mrs. Ida Canady,
and, rankling under the Injustice of th
Imprisonment, he walked the sixteen mile
between Hocking and Buxton, laid In wait
In the alley In the rear of the Canady home
until the appearance of Mr. Canady, shot
her, and then walked back to Hocking and
resumed work as If nothing had happened.
When arrested he exhibited little Interest
In the proceedings, plead guilty to all th
detail of th crime, and It waa with diffi
culty that he wa persuaded to allow his
case to be appealed to the chief execu
tive. Ta Chang. Cahoot Maaageat.al.
Th committee of the legislature ap
pointed to consider th advisability of es
tablishing a single board of control fpr the
educational Institutions of the state met at
the eapltol building thla morning and com
menced an Indeterminate session. In which
they will attempt to settle upon a report
to the legislature. s -
There has been a growing dissatisfaction
on the part of the legislators concerning
th opposltjon to the Interest of each other
exhibited by the schools of the state and
the desire on the part of certain of the
schools to demand whatever of equipment
or building la given another. In spite of th
fact that the schools and the field they
occupy are entirely separate.
The three schools of the slate are lo
cated at Iowa City, Ames and Cedar Falls,
and at this time all of. the schools are re
peating courses; that Is, th Ftsje uplv
sity and State Agricultural college hara
courses In engineering ami the Slate in
verslty has duplicated the normal course
of the State Normal college. The three
schools come Into competition when the
funds of the state are divided, all but the
Normal making demands for thousands
more than they expect. In order that they
may not be surpassed by the other.
It Is the hope of the legislature that some
method will be reported which will check
the growing difference of the schools.

OMAHA. Sept. U.-To the Editor of The
Bee: In an exchange of compliment with
the Courier-Journal the ponderous World
Herald, which never ssw a drop of demo
cratic red blood In Its own veins, shouted
bsck at th Courier-Journal that the demo
cratic party under Bryan "had fought the
good fight and kept the faith." The Jim
Jeffrie of that great newspaper, whose
other name ia Henry Watterson, left the
presumptive young man of the World-IIi-r-ald
to "take the count" with a single
"punoh," as follow:
Truly, on might ask. what "good fight"
have you fought and what "faith" have yon

much off the face of the earth. Vou have
reduced th party fortunes so low that,
under your plan and scheme, nothing short
of some dire national calamity and con
vulsion can give It a smell of victory. You
trlsd "free silver" snd abandoned It. You
tried "anti-expansion" and abandoned tt.
You abandoned "a tariff for revenue only
and made a fusion with the mine-owning
protectionist republicans, which cost you
the loss of all th stut.s of the north, the
east and the west. What fresh folly are
you contemplating that you warn off rea
sonable and Intelligent democrats from so
muoh a the discussion of the condition and
welfare of the party T
