Late Hot Spell Has Cut Down the Yield
in Iowa Materially.
Dies MONIES, Sept. l3.-The hot
weather, breaking all records for Sep
TENDER, has practically ruined the corn
crop. Director Sage of the weather and
crop service thinks the crop will be
only SO per cent. and it may be but 10.
He thinks the hot weather Of the past
week has injured corn, potatoes and
other late crops fully $1,000, 600, and he
is sure this estimate is conservative.
Some we'll known grain men who
have made an examination Of the situa-
ton in different parts Of the state say
the late corn is Of n value and that
many farmers, are cutting down the
stalks fortstocks.: Early corn is likely
to be light in weight.

A frightful accident occurred at the
Salt Lake City Railroad company's
power house on Second East street yes
terday afternoon. 1t appears that
three boys were playing around in the
power house among the cars, unknown
to the employees of the place. Stand
ing ON a track at the south side of the
building was a car known as the
wrecker The boys got aboard this
and finding a swith key lying ON the
switch box decided to have a ride
The key was put in position. the
trolley placed on the wire and all was
ready for the start. On the rear end
of the car, which was 10 the west.
stood one of the BOYS while one of
them handled the switch on the other
end. When the switch vas turned the
car started suddenly backwards as
the boy in mis- inexperience had turned
the key in the wrong direction and
reversed the motor.
The car was standing near the end
of the track at the west end of the
building and when it Started it had
only a few feet to go before it jumped
from the rails ard went crashing
through the end of the building. The
boy, who gave his name as VIII Riley,
was on the platform at the west end
of the car, and when it jumped from
the rails and went bouncing over the
rough ground he was thrown off and
the front wheel passed over him.
a Mr.. Scott and his son Joe were
passing ON the street at the time
and heard the crash as the car went
ploughing into the end Of the building.
They looked with surprise when they
saw the end of the house break out
ward, and hearing a scream inside
they opened the door and rushed in.
The sight that met their eyes was
horrible. The caT stood with its end
bubting up against the building and
there under the wheels was fastened
the prostrate form of young boy.
The youth was in agony. He was
lying on his back. his face pale as
death. The front wheel ON the north
side of the car had rolled upon his
leg and remained there pinioning him
to the ground
AT the same time that Mr.. Scott and
his son entered the building two or
three of the employees of the road
procured some Jacks and lifted the

Republican Women.

The Republican women had another
meeting at Tbeosophieal hail yester-
day afternoon. There was a regular
programme and it was carried out
without d skip. Several were present.
The first number was a talk by Mrs.
Jones on the beauty of dwelling to-
gether in unity, which received merited
applause. She recommended unity IN
the interest of the party. After she
had finished, Miss Blanche Aldrich
entertained the ladies with a vocal
solo. which was very pleasing. Miss
Aldrich is a good singer.

1t as he went along. 1t was a pathe-
tic affair. Those who heard this talk
last year said 1T was fine, but the re-
vised edition is something far better
He has rounded the corners and pad
ded portions so it wears easier.
Many ladies we're moved to tears.
All agreed that for an argument in
favor Of standing by al the principles
of the Republican party except those
which the convention did not endorse
was good.
The committee pledged $3.50 to the
campaign fund and then went home to
dun their respective husbands for

To the Editor of The Herald:
In your issue of Thursday, Oct o.,
1897, I see an article "Wheelmen in Pol
tiles" They ask the candidates ques-
tons and say there are $500 whcelmen
in this city voters. and it would appear
BY their statement that they want to
run the city election to their own inter
est This so-called league assume the
authority TO dictate terms on which a
candidate shall be elected, irrespective
of the taxpayers, the people that make
and build up the city and bear all the
public burdens l would like to ask
this league q few questions:
First.-Is il not true that out of this
$500 wheelmen there is not one out Of
ten that pays poll tax, much more a
property tax?
Seconds it not true that the people
of this city are already overwhelmed
with taxation?
Third Would it be doing justice to
the already overburdened taxpayer to
continue this extravaganza expenditure
of the peoples money. when hundreds

Jake,s All Right.

When Jake Greenewald comes back
to this city he may bear with him a
promise of appointment as postmaster.
They may decry his candidacy all they
want to. but Jake Went down east in
response to u summons. Senators
Quay and Penrose both told him to
come on and mold a consultation with
them and it was for that purpose he
went t0 Philadelphia and Washington
Republicans here have beiittled Jake's
chances TOO much. He is as important
man as any Of them and has done
as much for the cause Of Mckinley
ism as any man in the state. OF course
he had TO cut loose from nearly all his
old friends in doing the work, but he
cut loose and has been quietly cursed
ever since. If he doesn't get the post
of,1e the gCldite party is the most
ungrateful aggregation on the face of
the earth. Jake isn't much of a
speaker but he was on hand every
time man was wanted to do any
work and did it to the queens taste
While tine balance of the crowd we're
busting around. Jake and a select few
we're doing the actual work Of the cam

THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT.

side of the car so as to extricate the
boy. The wounded boy in answer to
a question said his name was Willie
Riley and that he lived at 522 South
State street.
Did you start the carr" was asked
him.
NO" he answered between groans,
'fthe other boy did it,
What was the other boys name?"
was asked
He rnurmured something but it
could not be understood and at the
same time he gave a gasp, his hands
stopped their tWftching and his head
fell back. He was dead. An eXami
nation was then made to ascertain the
nature of the wound and it was found
that the wheel had passed over the
right leg in an oblque direction
nearly seYering it from the body. The
cut was very close 20 the trunk and
the hange cut into his body. The left
leg was not cut.
The accident occurred at $50 and
the boy died Is minutes later Dr.
Richards was summoned but young
Riley was dead before the doctor
could get there. Justice Sommer WIS
on the scene and had the body removed
to Evans Undertaking establishment
where an inquest will be held Monday
afternoon. The coroner wishes to hCid
the inquest i'll order to find out the
facts in the case and a search viii be
made for the boys that were with Will
Riley at the time.
The car was not broken. but the
west end of the building was badly
damaged. The wooden part Of it was
broken and pushed out for several
feet and the masonry en- which rested
the frame work was demolished The
victim in this case was a boy of about
IL years of ase and lived with his
mother. Mrs Margaret Riley. at 522
South State street,
It could net be learned just how
long the boys had been in the power
house as their presence was not
known. The doors are kept closed and
no one is allowed in the building. The
boys had evidently watched their op-
portunfty and when no one was look
ing went inside and amused them
selves in the car shed where the acct
dent happened.
Of course no blame whatever can be
attached to any one connected with
the company. The accident was due
wholly to the carelessnegs of the boys.

from : to o'clock Tickets to the par
quette, dress circle and stage can be
obtained from the ladies' committee at
headquarters today and tomorrow.
Members of the precinct committees
have them also.
Every body is invited TO attend, and
the only reason tickets have been is
sued was because it was desired to pro-
tect the ladies from the rush which is
sure 10 occur, Some criticism has been
bestowed on this plan, but it comes
from those who would not so if they
could, and whose sole object is carping

State Committee Try to Defeat His

McGrew is not being left alone these
days. The Republicans who ally t,lem-
selves with Glen Miller and the balance
Of the crowd are making an effort to
tie up the confirmation. During the
last week letters were sent out to all
the members OF the executive com

come to this city and hold a meeting
on Friday evening, for the purpose of
taking some steps looking toward the
defeat of N1cGrew, when it comes to

Miller had better not take too promis-
cuous q part in attempting to
defeat others. His own nomina-
