They Are Charged With the Murder OF
George Ramsey.
G. w. Jones and M. G. Walker. of Mis-
soula, have been taken to Deer Lodge by
Sheriff Quigley. The men were en-
ployed OIL the Northern Pacific as brake
men. 1t is claimed that a week ago last
Thursday George Ramsey. who was steal

Elliston was thrown from the train by q
brakeman while the cars were in motion.
and received injuries from which he died
the following Wednesday. The injured
man was brought to Deer Lodge and taken
to the hospital, were he remained in a semi
conscious condition until he died.
During Ramsey's rational moments DR..
Owings, his physician, obtained the follow
ing from him: He was stealing a ride from
Elliston to Helena. Ramsey was accosted
by one of the brakemen, the
head brakeman he thought. who
asked him to give up money for his
fare. Ramsey told the man he had no
money, when he was seized and forced to
the door of the car and pushed head first
down the rocky ~embankment, causing a
compound fracture of the skull. Some two
hours after he was picked up in an unoon-
soious condition by some section men. be-
tween Avon and Elliston. and brought
back to Elliston and placed under the care
of DIR. Eastman until removed to Deer
Lodge.
The prisoners, G.. W.. Jones and NJ. Z.
Walker. both claimed that the man was
stealing a ride on the rods underneath the
cars. and it is said that a workman by the
name of Akers saw the deceased man go
under the car at the depot in El.,,-ton. Both
men have been released on $1,000 bail. The
preliminary examination will be held to-
day before Judge Hartwsll. Ramsey's
parents, who live in Piketown. Ohio, have
been notified, and nothing will be done
with the remains until his people are heard
from. He was about 30 years of age, and

the scene.

A peculiar accident happened on the
Montana Central railroad near Mitchell's
station yesterday afternoon between five
and six O'Clock, in which the engineer and
fireman of a gravel train had a miraculous
escape from death. The train was on it's
way TO Helena and had reached a point in
the canyon about I'VE miles this side of
Mitohell's when the Drown sheet of the
boiler of the locomotive was blown ont,
hurting the engineer and fireman out of the
cab. For a few moments a the train 49,

of them owing to the cloud OF steam and
smoke which hung around the engine and
tender. When it subsidized David Bell, the
engineer, was discovered OF the tender in
his seat which had been blown from the
cab. The seat was driven clean out of the
frame work OF the cab with that portion of
it against which the engineer rests his back.
Robert Kutzlet, the fireman, had an
equally as remarkable experience, and it is
best told in his own words. "Ihe engineer
told mt we had enough coal in. she'll be
popping around here pr city soon If you put
in any more he said. l got up on my seat
and lit my pipe and was looking out for

Neither Of the men were seriously hurt.
their injuries consisting of small cuts and
scratches on their faces and limbs. The
force of the explosion WAS toward the rear
of the engine. The frsman's shovel was
found on the third car back of the

also found in the brush on one side of the
track. Everything WAS blown away except
n few fragments of the cab which hung to
the engine. A special was sent out from
Helena with DR.. Treacy aboard and tho
cuts of the engineer and fireman dressed.
The special returned at 9:15 last night.
Bell was taken to his home near the depot
and Kutzlet went to his room at the Nc
Donald house where he was surrounded by

his thrilling experience. When asked fpr
