FOR HUSBANDS LIFE.
Mrs. Mary A. Quinn Brings $50.
900 Damage Suit Against
the Rock island.
RESULT OF COLLISION ON ROAD.

Wreck Occurs Near oxford, Iowa, on the
Night OF Sept. IL. Killing Engineer
Quinn and Others Alleged tn
Have Been Due to Negligence on Part
OF Company's Employees.
Mrs. Mary 4. Quinn, of this city,
whose husband, Engineer Thomas f.
Quinn. was one of the six victims of
the recent wreck on the Rock Island
road near Oxford, Iowa, has brought
suit in the district court at Davenport
for $50, 900 damages against the G.. g,
X. |. IL Z. Railway company. Mrs.
Quinn has retained G. W. Neal rs her
attorney. The petition states that
Engineer Quinn, who was 40 years of
aye, was killed on the night of Sept.
l.; that he was strong and healthy,
capable of earning $175 per month
and with a long expectancy of life,
and hence the damage TO his estate is
claimed TO have been $50, 600.
The petition is drawn in four sepa-
rate counts. All allege that Quinn
was engineer in charge of heavy
freight running from Valley Junction
to Davenport, Iowa, and beyond. and
that on the night of his death his en-
CINE collided with the engine OF the
west bound train, Thomas Dunn, en-
gineer.
Allegations Made.
1t is alleged that Quinn was acting
under telegraphic orders, that the
other train had no right upon the
track, that Quinn did not know it was
there, but believed, and had right
to believe, that the track was clear.
The first count charges the accident
to the negligence of Dunn in
not having sidetracked his train for
Quinn's train to pass; the second
count charges it to a miximg up of
orders, the third places it upon the
railroad company for not providing
operators at small stations, so that
the train might have been reached if
the mistake in the orders ut the dis
patcher's office had been discovered.
The fourth count summarizes and in
cludcs all these reasons.
