WITH A BAT.
The Volgers and Shuberts Have
War.

Shultz Volger, a carpenter living at the
corner of Twenty-6tth and Snyder streets,
came nto the office Of The LEADER yes
terday afternoon and requested that a re-
porter be sent to his house at once, as
two persons had been nearly killed there.
Upon arriving at the place designated
THElLEADER representative fddnd Mrs.
Volgor and her 10 year old son suffering
from severe wounds, inflicted by Edward
Shubert. Her statement was substan-
TALLY as follows: MY little boy was pass
ing through Shnbers's yard on his way to
play bail. when Mr.. Shubert ran at him
and told him to get out of his yard, at the
same time striking him several times with
a large stick. | heard the screams and
hurried to the rescue of my child, when
Mr.. Shubert snatched the bat which
Charley had and dealt me a heavy blow
over the head. l begged of him not to
strike me again as | was almost dead,
but he paid no attention to my entreaties
and continued to deal me blow after blow.

ger back to the house. followed by my
child"
Mr.. Skuburt was seen and he positively
denied the story told by Mrs. Volger.
He said: II told the boy to leave my yard
which he did, but Mrs. Volger came run
ming out and ordered him to come back
again at the same striking at me with a
bat which she held in her hands. Her
statement that her boy had the bat is not
true. l took the bat from her and threw
it away. whereupon she rushed at me and
scratched like II wild cat. | then struck
he with the same stick that l struck her
son."
The Volgers and Shuberts have been
at daggers ends for a long time and this is
not the first time blows have been ex-
changed.

Mrs. Guertin Dead.

A private telegram received last night
from George A. Guertin the
death of Mrs. Guertin at their new home
in Pueblo. Mr.. Guertin left this city last
winter to accept a position as train dis
patcher on the Rio Grande at Pueblo.
Mrs. Guertin aud her little daughter join,
ed him there last May. She had been
dangerously i'll for the past few weeks,
but was considered out Of danger and in a
fair way to recover a few days ago.
Mrs. Guertin lived here about six
years. Her unexpected death in the
bloom Of life will prove a shock to many
friends and acquaintance here where
those who knew her best appreciated
most the many elements of sterling wo-
manhood which went to make up her
character.
The funeral will take place at Pueblo
to-day.

woman suffrage there" 1t was what we
expected. a big advertisement for Wyo-
ming. But it was also q bad one, which
we did not expect.
Recollections Of life in Wyoming are
pleasant ones to me and l take much in
terest in the territory's prosperity. If l
were still a citizen l would vote for a new
name for the new state, throwing off the
old one as a badge of slavery, forced on
us without asking us about it. Another
matter which it would be wise for the old
state to do is to form a historical society
and preserve all the early history incidents.
etc, as Wisconsin has SO ably done.
There is money in It. More visitors will
go to a country that has historical incl
oents connected with its fine landscapes
than if they have no history. 1t adds a
human interest to the natural beauty.
| am proud to have been identified with
the beginnings of one Of the great com
monwealths. My father in his day was
similarly identified with others; as first
adiutant general of Iowa and a member
of the first legislature of Wisconsin.
Another ancestor was second governor of
Indiana territory and a still earlier one
was a member of the first house of Bur
gesses of Maryland. and one of the
house of Burgesses of Virginia. To me
no patent of nobility is as distinguished
as to have been a worthy helper in found
ing these American commonwealths. and
cementing them into one grand political
edifce, surprising as it does, all prede-
cessors. GEoRI E WILSON.

CAUSE OF THE WRECK.

At least one railway man on the scene
was certain that the accident was due to
negligence, that the track had been loos-
ened preparatory to replacing it with new
steel and sound ties. OF the fact that
the track spread there can be no doubt.
Many of the ties removed yesterday were
rotted.

Maj. j. A. WIlkens, a market gardner
and fruit grower near Fort Collins and a
Larimer county politician, seriously con-

near this city early next spring. He came
TO Cheyenne for treatment by DIR. Birney,
the successful catarrh specialist. and for
the first time somewhat familiarized him

He is certain that market gardening here
on a large scale will be profitable. 1t is

violently to the other, while cushions and
other loose furnishings followed. The
effec. can only be compared to a FIRE panic
in a crowded theator.
Of rescuers. there were none. but
luckily only a few needed help. The
passengers Scrambled from the fallen
cars much as rats leave a burning ship.
They leaped through windows ike aero
bats over banners. After the first fright
had somewhat subsidized the women and
children were carefully removed from the
wreck. Trucks left three cars, but none
were as badly damaged as n would
think. The conclusion IN contact with
the soft earth was not great.
TIE INJURED.
Conductor Fred Rlncker was standing
on the platform of a coach when the rails
spread and went into the ditch with it.
He landed with a leg under the car and
was half buried in the bank. The mem
Der was severity bruised. 1t was ban
daged after he had been assisted to the
baggage car.
-Four women were more scared than in
jured. though one may be treated a long
time for conclusion of the spine. An
other has a crushed limb, athird a sprain-
ed arm and the fourth, a benevolent look
ing old party. nurses a scalp wound.
A porter has a cash over the left eye
and a weakened leg.
A second passenger closely followed the
first and reached the scene Of the acci.
dent early. The crew and travellers did
all they could for those of the ditched
train.
The engine of the i'll fated train was
cut off and run to Archer, from
which place news of the accident was
telegraphed to Cheyenne.
A rumor few about Cheyenne, which
grew as it travelled. until according to
the story piles of ~lifeless BODIES were
piled upon the brown prairie.
There was much activity about the
depot here in outfitting a special train
for the accident. DIR. Stevens was sum-
moned, a telegraph line repairer, opera
tor, extra crew and Roadmaster Delaney
called. The run OF about twelve miles
was made very quickly.
A LEADER representative found the
condition of affairs as stated above. The
injured passengers were resting comfort
ably and but few were grumbling over
the necessary delay. A big steel gang
was laying track around the PROSTATE
cars and the company had given dinner
in the hotel car Des Moines to the pas
sengers of the ditched train.
ANON THE PASSENGERS.
An Omaha clothing man who recog.
nized THE LEADER commissioner said
that some colored people on the trim had
turned permanently pale. The mulattoes
were found just recovering from fright.
The tilted emigrant coach had been
loaded with Portland passengers. There
were thirty four young children in the
party and their escape is really remarka-
BILE.
Prof. N. f. Stark and Hon. w. s..
Weaver were aboard the second train.
The professor is still IN crutches, but
MIR. Weaver did enough good work for
the Cheyenne pair. Both missed the
ditched train by a few minutes, Mr..
Weaver at Chicago and Prof. Stark at
Omaha.

il to its source. They had so much evidence
against Mrs. Brown that even the resurrection
of the ghost Of this villainous ''pard' could not
break it.
MRS BROWN BREAKS DOWN AND MAKES FULL
CONFESSION.
On October Is Mrs. Brown was again a
prisoner in court Her haughtiness had dis
appeared. She was penitent woman. She
sobbed bitterly when she heard the commits
Then she called the inspectors to her side and
sin if she made full confession. They pro-
duced her affidavit duly signed and sealed. and
demonstrated that the wheels of the law must
continue TO revolve until she was more closely
bound with red tape. But they showed her
that the court was influenced by confessions
and suggested the ACCESSIBILITY Of relieving her
conscience of its load of perjury. Then she
made a full confession. She said that all her
previous statements had been untrue; that she
had felt piqued because Mrs. Putnam had
dunned her; that she had concocted the story
about the money order without thinking of the
result, and that her pride had restrained her
from confessing the falsehood. After she had
signed that confession she furnished the re-
quired bonds and went home sad, but wiser.
She also returned the money to Mrs. Putnam.
The case was presented TO the grand jury.
who brought in an indictment. The case has
not yet come TO trial. but when il does the cir
cumstances will probably induce a nolle pros
to be entered. The government officials think
that Mrs. Brown has suffered sufficiently. and
is repentant of her attempt to get the best of
the postal authorities.

POLICE MATTERS.
Specials for the lnauguration-PoIice
Matrons-The Poor Fund, Etc.

There have already been several hundred
applications made to the police authorities for
positions as specials" during the Inauguration.
The applicants. in former years. comprise
all sorts of people, many OF whom look like
they should be on the other side of the bars.
Others are cripples and persons who are wholly
incapacitated for police duty. Four years ago
many of the specials went on the force simply
to have good time and they succeeded. This
year more care and Judgment will be taken in
selecting the men for that duty.
THE POLICE NATIONS
will be sworn in and assigned to duty in a day
or two. In the first and sixth precincts a
dodgers room has been taken for their accom-
mediation. The old wooden hunks formerly
used by the dodgers have been removed and
the rooms have been thoroughly overhauled
and fitted with handsome sets of furniture

appeared from this city about 1862.
THE POOR.
The call recently made by the police for con-
tributions for the poor has been answered by
a few persons, while the applicants for relief
are numerous. The following contributions
have be received: Cash, $50; Saks & Co.. $40;
Mrs. Berry, "a. Food and fuel. as well as cast
off clothing, are also badly needed. and will be
thankfully received by the police, who will dis
tribute them only to those persons who
are really in need, and not TO a class of per-
sons who call simply because they have a
chance of getting a portion of the fund and
save for themselves a few dimes.
NOTES.
Major Moore has been officially notified of
the recent action of the Commissioners in
granting pension TO the widow of the late
Lieut.. Redway. The widow receives SOS per
month and the child gets 80.
