Serious Injuries.

The injuries of Joseph Carney. who
was injured in a runaway at Walker
willie one day last week, have turned out
so serious that it became necessary to
amputate one of his limbs yesterday.
Carney sustained a compound fracture
of the bones of .the left leg, between the
knee and ankle. The surgeons at st.
James hospital. where he was taken
for treatment, were skeptical from the
first as to the possibility of saving the
injured portion of the limb, and as the
bones refused to knit, a~mputation be-
came necessary. The operation was
successfully performed yesterday after
noon.

There is a likelihood that the difficult
ties Contractor Fred White
sides and the Bricklayers' union Will
soon be adjusted and that work on the
proposed new school building will be
started in a short time. The bricklay-
ers. IL will be remembered, objected to
the letting of the contract to White
side on the ground that he was not a
practical mason. and soon after he was
awarded the contract he was served
with notice hat union men would not
be permitted to work on the building.
Contractor Whiteside took the matter
up with the executive committee of the
International Bricklayers' union, and in
response to a request from that body
submitted affidavits setting forth the
facts of the situation. Last evening he
received a telegram from the committee
stating the secretary of the local Brick
layers union had been notified that
union men must be permitted to work
on the building. As refusal to recog-
nize the decree of the internationa
union would forfeit the union its char

cable settlement will be reached by Mr.
Whiteside and the bricklayers and that
work on the school building will go
ahead in a short time.
