Special to the Globe.


MooRHEAD, Mimi, July 5.-August
Anderson, a Swede, about So years of age,
single, was run over and killed last night
about 11:30, on the Northern Pacific rail-
road, about two miles east of Moorhead.
The coroner's inquest. held this forenoon.
developed the following particulars: As
the through freight train from the East.
due at 11:40, was within about two miles
of Moorhead, the engineer, fireman and
brakeman saw man lying in the middle of
the track. When they first saw him
he was forty feet in front of the engine.
The train was stopped as soon as possible.
but the whole train passed over the mans
body before it came to a standstill. They
went back. took up the mangled remains.
wrapped them in blanket and delivered
them to the Office at MOOrhead. RoadmaS-
ter Hannipin recognized the dead man as a
section hand who had been at work on the
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba road,
somewhere between GAINESVILLE and Breck-
enridge. Anderson was mangled in a most
horrible manner. One arm was cut
off at the shoulder and the body cut nearly
in two above the hips. AS far as can be
ascertained the man has no relatives in this
vicinity and will be buried at the expense
of Clay county. 1t appeared at the inquest
that Anderson was not in Moorhead during
the day of the Fourth, but seemed to be on
his way from GlyndOn TO MoOThead. A
SWede named johnson. who recognized
Anderson, testified he was drinking man
and the theory is credited that he laid him
self down on the track in drunken stupOT.
1t is possible, however. he committed

Getting Pointers.

NJ. II. Day, the national Democratic
committeeman from Dakota. was in Fargo
last week and held brief seance with lead
ing Democrats, and left for Grand Forks to
interview Capt. Mccormack, the United
States marshal. He expressed regret at
finding Democrats in the North scrambling
so hard for Office and stirring up So much
feeling. He is gathering information as to
the situation and no doubt will be able TO
advise the appointing powers when he re-
turns 10 Washington. He will return to
Fargo shortly and visit other points in the
North to confer with Democrats. The i'm
preston that he is a recognized authority
at Washington makes him a center OF in

confident that the name of the next gov
er1or will be Ziebach, and that his appoint
ment will not be long delayed. The land
officers at DEVILS Lake. he thinks, will
walk the plank very soon for cause.

The crops in this vicinity are in a very
promising condition. Small grain looks
very rank and promises a large crop, but
corn needs weather that is dry as well as
warm TO bring it up TO the standard of
other grain. The News-MeSSenger says

PhaIIas Reats NTaxex Cobb.

CLEVELAND, July 4.-Phallas won the
$4,000 race with MaXey Cobb to-day in
three straight heats. Cobb never showed
his nose i'll front during the entire race.
The time was as follows: 2:14. 2:15%,
2:20H. Fourteen thousand people were in
attendance, and the track and weather
could not have been better. John Murphy
drove Maxey Cobb and Ed Bither sat be-
hind Phallas. Pools started on an even
basis, but before the first heat Phallas
brought 500 to Cobb's S45 and $50.
-Four attempts we've made to start At the
beginning MaXey Cobb had the pole, but
when the word was given he was three
fourths of length to the rear. After the
quarter post was passed Phallas was two
lengths ahead and Murphy tried the whip,
but it did no good. The quarter were as
follows: 35, 1:0S4, 1:41, 2:14.
The second heat was more evenly con-
tested, but not very interesting. The
quarters were 33 1:O6, 1:4015, 2:15%.
The time of the third heat was 3511,
1:11%, 1:464, 2:2O4.
Two weeks ago Nathan Strauss, owner
of Majolica, challenged the winner of this
race for trial of metal at Fleetwood park,

inclined to give up the forfeit. Phallas
will stay here, but Maxey Cobb will be re-
turned to New York next week.

Austin.

The poStOffice fight in Austin is still in
progress. The open candidates, says the
Transcript, are Christian johnson, John
Walsh. Eugene Wood and J. b. Yates,
with ID. b Smith as the dark-horSe candi-
date. Yates was first i'm the field, and OBJ
tanned good Endorsement from local Dem
ocrats; but with the leading Ottice-brokerS
outside he was not successful. From an
misunderstanding point of view Christian
johnson seems to be in the lead. He has 4
good petition of leading business men and
Democrats. and has the advantage of being
strongly backed by Biermann and DOran
Eugene Wood has larger support of Re
publicans than any of the candidates, be-
sides good Democratic backing, including
the Endorsement of Hon. Henry w. Wells
of Preston; he is also said TO have some
very strong support among leading Demo-
Gratis in New York. his former home. John
Walsh is probably the Understanding
candidate in the lot, and his prospects are
by no means light. He has the support of
the county central committee, and It's said
that the grand sachem, Kelly, favors Walsh.
All in all, the situation has very compll

Serious Accident.

One week ago last Saturday, says the
Granite Falls journal, Emell Martinson.
aged about Il, who lives in Chippewa
county, met with what is evidently going
to prove very serious accident. He was
riding a colt near a barbed-wire fence when
the animal became unmanageable and ran
up against and along the fence. all the time
pressing Emell's left foot and ankle against
the wire. tearing the flesh away from the
bones every instant. and could not be gotten
away from the fence until the boys leg was
cut nearly half of at the ankle, the barbS
actually cutting into the bone and severing
the cords. He was brought 10 town for
treatment, and for the convenience in at
tending to his case was left at the residence
OF Mr.. S. OlandeT, where he now lies in a
somewhat critical condition. We under
stand that the doctor has decided his foot
will have to be amputated in order to save
his life. Emell is bright boy for his age
and for the advantages he has had, and we
are extremely sorry to have TO record the
sad and painful accident which has be-
fallen him.
