News-A Small Fire Yesterday.

Lemuel Bowen, roustabeut on the
steamer H. X. Bedford, was the victim Of
fatal accident at West Wheeling, last
night about nine o'clock.
The boat stopped at the landing to take
on some paper from the paper mill. Bowen
was crossing the c., L. & w. track, with a
bundle of paper on his shoulder. when a
north bound freight train struck him, and
knocked him a distance of ten feet.
After running short distance, the
train was stopped, and the crew went back
and picked up the unfortunate man, and
carried him to the boat. His right side
was badly bruised, and two ugly holes cut
in his head, and he was probably injured
internally. When the boat arrived at
Wheeling he was taken to the hospital.
He was not missed from the crew of the
boat. and would probably have lain at the
scene of the accident all night, If the train
had not stopped.
The wounded man was between 30 and
40 wears of age. His home is at Millers
Run, O., where he has wife and three
children,
