Mrs. Lyons, OF Cheyenne, wife of
the postal clerk who was killed by u
collision between the east and west.
bound Passenger trains near Nc.
Cannon, on the Oregon Short Line,
which collision was owing to a mis-
placed switch, positively refuses to sue
the railway company for damages.
A few days after the fatality she
was called upon by tellow-clerk Of
the deceased who, speaking in behalf
OF the association, asked for permits
sion to bring suit in her name. She
then objected on the ground that it
seemed as if she would be asking for
blood money, and added that all she
wanted was for the company to pay
the funeral expenses. She, however,
gave the clerk power of attorney to
do as his associates saw fit.
When suit was commenced Mrs.
Lyons was offered $500 to settle.
She rejected the offer-for reasons
given above. The offer was increased
to $4,000, which she likewise refused.
In the meantime preparations are
making to push the suit, and unless
she revokes her pswer of attorney it
will be pressed to final adjudication.
