ALMOST KILLED BY AN ENGINE.
Teamster Struck on Water Front and
His Wagon Demolished.


George Carey, a teamster in the employ
of Harrison q Turner, coal and wood deal
ers. at the foot of Wall, was run into by
S, L. 5. Il t. train, at $50 o'clock last
evening, on switch near the works, and
received injuries from which he will prob
ably die. Ills wagon was mashed into
kindling wood.
Carey was loading coal onto his wagon
at the switch, when looking up he saw a
Lake Shore train coming down the track
at high rate of speed. and jumping to
save his team, reached the lines. but did
not get the wagon off the track in time
and was struck by the engine. The wagon
was hurled into the air and Carey thrown
about twenty feet. receiving injuries to
his back and internally. from which there
is very little hope of his recovery. Carey
claims that no whistle or bell was
sounded on the approach of the train, and
says he did not know it was coming until
right on him.
The patrol wagon was called and Carey
taken TO his home at 400 Cedar street, and
medical aid summoned.

Hoke Smith Approves Valuation of Port
Angeles Townsite Lots.

Secretary Hoke Smith has sustained the
appraisement of the Port Angeles town
site lots as made by the government board
Of appraisers. One hundred and fifty of
the settlers protested against the appraise-
ment, alleging that it was too high. Yes
terday a decision was received from Secre-
tary Hoke Smith. notifying the local
officers that he considered the appraise-
ment just and that he had approved the
report of Special Agent Carmichael, who
was sent to make an investigation of the
matter.
The decision Is based upon the fact that
the agent reported that many of the set
tiers on the townsite bought lots at the
appraised value without grumbling and
many OF the lots were purchased for more
than the appraised price. The settlers who
protested are given ninety days in which
10 pay for their lots or. failing 10 10 this.
they must then give them up.

the Northern Pacific would run trains

Since the Cascade division Of the North

road has its own line 10 Portland, and
there can be no reason for sending its

CYCLONE WRECKS A TRAIN.
Two Persons Killed and a Number In
iured Near Charleston. Mo.

Charleston, Mo-, Sept ia west
bound express on the Cairo branch of
the Iron Mountain road was struck by
a hurricane late yesterday, and the re-
suit was one of the most serious wrecks
ever known on the system. The train
in charge of Conductor Jack Lower and
Engineer Andy Hill had just reached the
limits of the city when the passengers
and crew noticed the approach of fun
nel-shaped cloud that was dealing de-
struction to everything in its path, up
roofing large trees and hurting missiles
before it. The train and the cyclone met
and the wind lifted the entire line of
coaches and landed them at a distance
of twenty feet from the track, almost
turning them completely over. Following
are the names of the killed:
PARMELIA DEMPSEY. Bertrand. Mo.
FREDDIE MCCLELLAN. Eldorado, Ill.
Among the score of injured only the
following names could be secured:

Mrs. Cadwallader Remains Near Her
Husband During His Incarceration.


Madison. Wis. Sept. 12.-Several prov
cribs are Illustrated III the fate of Albert
A. Cadwallader. eX-presdent OF the SUI
perior National bank, now languishing
in the Dane county jail awaiting the
action of the federal court. The most
apparent of these proverbs are those
which carry warning against undue
haste in the scramble for wealth. AL
most equally applicable are caustic criti-
cisms which have been frequently made
of the slow processes of the criminal
courts. Cadwailader is as yet convicted
of no crime, yet he has spent year and
a half in jail. 1t is true that he might
have escaped this had he been able to
secure bondSmen. and that he put this
chance out of his reach by jumping his
bail of $4,000 and fleeing to Brazil short
ly after his first arrest two years ago.
His bondsmen got the payment or the
forfeiture on the technlcality that the
bond was approved at special term or
court but they did not feel like putting
their cash in jeopardy second time.
A little more than two years ago things
were coming very easy for Mr.. Cadwalla-
der Coming to Superior young man
of 26 years. with few dollars bat plenty
of nerve, he soon became president OF an
apparently fourishng bank. president OF

made him think the world was his. His
offense consisted in taking the funds OF

Whether in doing this he violated the
criminal law is the question to be de-

YOUNG LAKE SHOT OWENS.
Milwaukeean Admits that He Killed tho
Railway Detective.

Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. 14-From informa-

Chicago avenue police station it appears
that William Lake, the young Milwaukee
casket-trimmer. killed Detective Owens
in the hold-up on the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul road. Griswold, on the day he
was captured. confessed that he was
guilty Of that crime. This confession,
the police say, was only a bit of bragga-
docio on his part, and that Lake, who
was told on the train by the brakeman
that Owens was a detective, did the
shooting and has at last admitted it.

Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. 13.-The $50 men
at work on the new Marquette building
at Dearborn and Adams streets went
on strike today, and riot was narrowly
averted. Eighteen non-union Edison COM

of the strike were attacked and forced
to flee to avoid bloodshed. The Building

refusal the strike followed. The meE
were in an. ugly mood, but the flight of
the non-union men and the appearance
of the police Quoted the disturbance.
