by Falling Ladder-Lives Lost In q
Blizzard.

Guthrie, Ok, Feb. 19.-The Texas ex-
press and through cattle train on the
Santa Fe collided in Dead Mans Cut,
five miles south of here, at midnight
Saturday. The passenger engineer
jumped and saved his life, as did the
freight fireman. Freight Engineer
Charles Upleby jumped, but his head
struck the rocky side of the cut and he
was killed. Passenger-Fireman Patrick
Coldron was caught in the cab and
scalded so badly he died later. Both
engines, baggage and mail cars, and
half a dozen freight cars were demol-
ished. Seventy head of stock were
killed. The passenger coaches did not
leave the track and no passengers were
badly injured. The wreck was caused
by misinterpretation of orders by the
freight engineer, who thought he was
to pass the passenger at Guthrie in
stead of at Seward, two miles south of
the wreck. ....

INSANE MAN ON A TRAIN.
DR.. Barney of Boston Makes a Fight on


Chatham, N. Y, Feb. 19-The con-
ductor, engineer, and fireman on the
Boston express bound west on The Bos-
ton & Albany railroad had a , -sperate
encounter here last night with a pas
senger who had become insane, and
boarding the locomotive announced his
Intention Of running the train to suit
himself. The man was DR.. G. L. Bar
ney of Boston, who is connected with
the Harvard Medical school. He was
through passenger from Boston and
was bound for Haviland, Kan. After
the train had left Springfield he
asked the conductor if he could
follow him through. The conductor
granted the request. Barney followed
the conductor as far as the baggage
car and then complained that the train
was going too slow. When the train
into Chatham the doctor darted for
ward toward the engine and grasped
the fireman and hurled him away above
his head and threw him back on the
tender. He then shouted that he would
run the train to suit himself. The con-
ductor and engineer wrestled with the
crazy man, but he evaded their grasp,
and, grasping the coal shovel began
hurting shovelfuls of coal at the half
open door of the fireboX. With the as
sistance of all the train hands he was
finally OVerDOwered

Figgat Probably Took S15O,OOo.

Richmond, Va, Feb. LIT is now
quite certain that c. M. Figgat, the de-
faulting cashier of the Bank of Lex
ington, stole about S150,000 from that
institution. He got away with 1000
capital stock and nearly $4,000 belong
ing to depositors. The developments
show that Figgat's stealings cover a
period of twenty-five years and depos-
itors are angry with the directors for
having failed to detect what was go
ing on. The bank is left with only
$4,000 in cash. Business in the COM
munity is almost paralyized on ac-
count of the wreck of this financial
institution. Figgat is supposed to have
gone to Chicago.
