Serious Accident Near the Union
Pacific Depot.
LIZZIE BOOTH THE VICTIM.
NARROW ESCAPE FROM BEING
CRUSHED TO DEATH.
Caught BY n Switchman just in
Time to Save Her-The Lady Was
Walking Along the Track with
NeighbOr-The Accident Wit
messed by Number Of People.

Mrs. Lizzie Booth, wife of Chrlsto-
pher Booth, a bookkeeper at the H.
c. M. L.. and residing at 647 west
Third North, was struck by a union
Pacific switch engine yesterday, sus-
tanning very severe injuries.
About o'clock in the afternoon Mrs.
Booth in company with Mrs. Woolley'
a neighbor. started up town to do some
shopping. To avoid the muddy streets
in the vicinity they walked along the
Union Pacific tracks and were going
southwark when at a point between
First and Second West streets switch
engine passed by on the track run
ming parallel with that on which they
were walking.
When the engine had passed they
stepped over onto the other track,
not noticing that the switch had been
changed and the engine was coming up
behind. Just as the ladies We're about TO
step across the switch where the two
tracks came together the tender struck
Mrs. Booth, who happened to be near
est to the locomotive, while Mrs. Wool
ley escaped with bad scare. MI
Crowton, an employee, was riding on
the front end of the engine and seeing
the ladies paying no attention to the
bell nor the shouts of the fireman,
jumped off and ran forward grabbing
the unfortunate woman just as she was
struck, and his action probably saved
her from being instantly crushed
The kind employees picked up the
unfortunate woman and took her to
her home and DR.. Daily summoned.
After an examination it was found
that she had sustained a fracture of
both bones in the right leg
just above the ankle, a small
lacerating wound on the forehead,
abrasions and contusions of both
hands, left arm, left thigh and hip.
She was in considerable pain. but after
laying her suffering DR.. Daily left her
resting quietly. awaiting the arrival of
the family physician, DR.. Root.
Mr.. Jeffs, the engineer, says he was
going at the rate of about three miles
an hour when the lady was struck.
He had no idea they would walk right
in front of the locomotive. as the bell
was sounded all the time and the fire
man was yelling at the top of his
voice for the ladies to look out.
The story of the engineer is cor
roborated by several who witnessed
the accident, andd who say the men
in charge were not to blame.
The place where the accident oc
CURED is dangerous to all wayfarers
during the day and early evening.
Switch engines and trains are al
most continually passing and con-
sidering the number of people who re-
sort to the tracks in order to escape
the muddy streets it is a wonder that
more accidents do not take place.
Switchmen report that they are COM
PEELED to stop many times a day to
avoid running over people who have
grown so accustomed to Walking along
the tracks that they are absolutely in
different to impending danger.
Later news last evening brings the
encouraging report that Mrs. Booth is
doing well.

The board of pardons met yesterday
at the state supreme court room and
considered several applications for ex-
ecutive cIAmency The members pres
emf We're Governor Wells, Attorney
General Bishop, Justices Zane, Miner
and Bartch.
Probably the most interesting case
before the board was that of Fred C.
Allen, who was convicted in Weber
county some years ago of being impli-
Gated in the Wertz hold-up. Allen was
sentenced to servitude in the state
prison for a period of seven years, and
deducting the time allowed for good
behavior. his sentence will expire next
September.
The petitions presented in Aliens be-
half were very strong, though the APP
peaIs We're purely a matter of Glenn
ency. Among the petitioners asking
for his pardon were many of the most
prominent people both here and in Og-
den, although from the Junction CITY
there were some protests. A peculiar
feature of the case was the fact that
the name of Governor Wells appeared
on a petition asking for a release,
while the names of Justice Zane and
Attorney General Bishop appeared on
the list protesting against executive
clemency. Allen was tried before
Judge Miner. Thus Judge Bartch was
tie only member of the board who had
not committed himself. OF course, all
these petitions were signed prior to the
late election, when probably few OF
the present members of the board had
any intimation that they would be
called upon to render Just decision in
"a case on which they had previously
expressed an opinion.
The consideration of Mr.. Aliens ap-
plication occupied the greater portion
of the session. Urgent appeals for
Clemency We're made by Attorney Ear
lev. L. Williams, Mr.. A. Young, Mrs.
Ferguson and Mrs. Lovelace. The
board. however, after converting in
executive session, refused to grant the
pardon, and hence Allen will have to
serve out the time for which he was
sent UP.
Josephine Streggel. convicted and
sent up for one year for stealing a
horse and buggy in this city about a
year ago. was granted a pardon on her
own application. setting forth that she

She had almost served her term out.
Executive clemency was extended
Ralph jenkins, whose term expires to-
morrow. Jenkins has served term of
several years for rape, but in view OF
his previous good life and the afffda-
Wits of a number of neighbors to the
effect that the girl whom he was con-
victed of assaulJing had repeatedly
boasted that she made considerable
money from his parents by threatening
to have Jenkins prosecuted for the
assault which she says he was not
guilty of. the board thought it proper
to grant a pardon in order that Mr.
Jenkins might be restored to citizen
ship.
The application of George Davis, sent
UP from the Second district for term
of eight months for assault with a
deadly weapon. was taken under ad-
visement.

About 10 o'clock the officer was walk

man in night robe came running out
of the Foster building and declared
that his room mate was attempting to
murder him. The officer followed up
stairs, but found the door leading to
the room was locked. 1t was forced
open and the pair were confronted by
Marks, who began a TRADE of abuse.
Officer Roberts stood calmly holding
his club when quick as flash Marks

him across the nose. Another blow
