The injured man was picked up in an
unconscious condition and taken to the
city hospital in the Rondo street pa
troll wagon. At the hospital it was
said last evening that Thauwald was
not dangerously hurt.
Thauwald was driving north on st.
Adams street when the accident oc-
CURED. Sitting back in the covered
vehicle, he failed to see the approach
ing car. AS he drove onto the tracks
the motoneer doubtless thought Thau-
valid would get across in time to avoid
a collision, and did not stop his car.
When the car struck the wagon the
horses were torn from the vehicle and
ran away down University avenue.
They were stopped within a block.
The wagon was practically smashed
to bits. The body was knocked from
the wheels and both parts reduced to
lxindling wood The front trucks of
the car were thrown from the track.
Thauwald's escape was undoubtedly
due to the fact that he was hurled
away from the car, thus being saved
from going under the, wheels.

REINSPECTIoNS AND APPEALS

Out of a total of 1927 cars of snrinp
wheat inspected ION arrival and "out of
store" 9,475 cars were he'd out for reinspec-
ton with the following result: In 49S8 cases
the original grade and dockage were con
frmed; grades were raised in $3.50 cases
lowered in 1875 and in 512 cases the dockage
was changed.
Appeals to the railroad and warehouse COM
mission were made in twelve cases, in four
of which the decisions made by the chief
deputies were changed and in eight cases
confirmed. The whole number of changes
made from original inspection as above in
Dictated was but 4,491, or one car in forty-
seven, as against one car in forty-one during
the previous year.
DEPARTMENT FORCE.
The number of persons employed during
the season ranged from ISL to 164, a number
of them being employed only temporarily
during the busy portion of the year. The
average number was one hundred and fifty
six, as against one hundred and forty-eight
the previous year. The department force is
made up as follows: One chief inspector.
four chief deputy inspectors, two first as
subdeputies, two fiaxseed inspectors, five as
sistant iaXseed inspectors and twenty help
ers and sealers in the inspection department
In the weighing department are four state
and two scale experts. In the registration
department one warehouse registrar and two
assistant registrars. The clerical force in
all departments comprises eleven clerks and
three stenographers. There is also one SUI
pervisor of country elevators.
bad ORDER CARS, SHORTAGES.
Reports from the several inspection dis
tricts show that but small percentage Of
cars containing grain arrive in bad condition
or unseaed. Out of 214,9S4 cars of all kinds
of grain received from outside points 1922 are
reported as follows: 692 cars not sealed, 399
cars seals broken, 1879 cars end door open, ia
with side door open, 100 with leaking grain
doors. II leaking at side of car 81 leaking
at end of car, leaking at center pin.
Considering the vast number of cars
handled, the distance most of them are
hauled, and the necessarily rough usage to
which they are often subjected, the wonder
is that much greater number are not found
leaking or in otherwise bad condition on
arrival. l have long been convinced that
shortages in weights at terminal points can
not be attributed to loss in transit between
interior and terminal points except to very
slight extent. The real cause for most
shortages is without doubt pilfering on track
at terminal points after the cars have ar
rived and been inspected, and while wait
ing sale and delivery. While these depreda-
tons have been reduced in the past few

DOGS VIOLATE GRAVES.
Shocking State of Things I'm the
Russian Cemetery.

The cemetery of the Russian Brother
hood, on Prosperity avenue, was visited
yesterday afternoon by Inspector
Sinks, of the health department. The
health office has had much trouble with
the officials having in charge this bury
ing ground, owing to the failure Of the
grave diggers to make the graves of a
sufficient depth to conform to the law.
Last Thursday a farmer passing the
graveyard noticed several dogs about
one of the graves and reported the fact
to the health Office. An inspector was
sent to the scene and found that sew
eral of the graves had been dug into
by the dogs President Giss, of the
brotherhood, was notified and directed
to have all the graves in the cemetery
properly protected before Tuesday
night Mr.. Giss promised the matter
would be attended to, and Inspector
Sinks visited the cemetery yesterday
to see If the orders of the health de-
partment had been carried out. \
force of men were at work, and the gen
tleman who has been designated as
undertaken for the association said
that in the future there would be no
cause for complaint, as all interments
in the cemetery would be made after a
burial certificate had been secured from
the health department, and the graves
would in depth comply with the ordl-
nance recently passed.

BAKERS NARROW ESCAPE.
Louis ThauwaId Struck by an Inter
urban Car.

Louis A Thauwald, a baker at 327
West Seventh street, had narrow es-
cape from death under the wheels of
an interurban street car yesterday
morning. The delivery wagon which
he was driving was struck by the car
at University avenue and ST. Adams
street. The force of the collision can
be judged from the fact that the wagon
was literally cut in two. Thauwald
was thrown heavily to the street, strik-
ing upon his head. He received num-

day with her cargo of cotton ON fire.
Capt. GOode made for this port with all

ported last night when the ship tied up
at the Gosport docks and the mayor OF
Portsmouth at once notified Chief of the
Fire Department Wiesdorf, who made
an examination and found that the cot
ton was burning in the forward hatch
way. Steam was poured in on the fire
but with not much success, and Chief
WiesdOrf ordered the removal of the yes
