HORRIBLE ACCIDENT
{, J. Dick Loses a Hand BY a Gun
shot,

A very serious accident occurred
Saturday afternoon which caused Mr..
D, j. Dick, son of Rev. Willis v. Dick,
of the First NJ, e. church, the loss OF
his right hand
Mr.. Dick was riding a wheel along
the river road near the Argand refin-
cry and carrying Shot gun. Some
thing happened which is very hard to
explain, but which caused the charge
of the gun to explode, the entire load
passing through the right hand
and mangling 1t so horribly that am
putaItion was necessary.
The injured man was brought to
Grace Hospital where Doctors Eddy
and McKim amputated the hand just
above the wrist joint.
AT the last report last evening the
young man was resting quietly and il
is not thought there is any further
complication to be anticipated.

EXPLANATION OF A sRUsH."
1900 Cars of Cattle Awaiting Ship
ment on the Panhandle Line
of the Santa Fe.

The Wellington Mail gives the following
explanation of what stock rush
amounts to on the Panhandle division Of
the Santa Fe:
Very few people realize what a stock
rush means, especially on the Panhandle
division of the Santa Fe. The present sit
uation on this line is a fair sample OF
what the genuine stock rush Is.
To-day there are 1,500 cars of cattle
along the line of the PecOS Valley rail-
road awaiting shipment over the Santa
cars in motion, westward bound, between
Wellington and Amarillo. These cars will
be loaded tonight and tomorrow. They
will reach Kansas City markets early in
the week.
Last Tuesday these cars were coming
east. On that day the Santa Fe handled
333 miles They made up thirteen trains
which means tWenty-siX engine and train
crews, thirteen into Woodward from the
west and thirteen out to the east. Count
to handle these trains while in motion.
ITO handle this business the Santa Fe
and twenty-five train crews. The extra
number of engines is utilized by making
some traniS double headers.
The shortage of stock cars has been
of cars. The shortage now is in engines
and train crews. For instance, yeSter-
day morning there was not stock car in
the Wellington yards inside Oh three
hours there were 212 stock cars on the
tracks here. But all of them well as
nearly many more that arrived later
1T requires not only a large force of
men. but executive ability of the highest
order to handle this business expeditions
" and economically. No higher cOmpli-
ment could be paid the Santa, Fe officials
at this point than the report constantly
made by the officials that the company 5
more satisfactorily than that of any
division in the system.

The regiment will be furnished meals
at the Harvey eating houses along the

and the time will have to be so appOr-
toned as to prevent the second train
arriving at a meal station before the
first train has pulled out, and the fol-

will require at least three trains to
bring the regiment home, and possibly
four.
Each train will be delayed for some
time at every meal station, as the ca
pacity of the eating houses along the
line vary from 100 to 125 people. This
will require several sittings, and it is
estimated that an hour Will have to be

COMING DRAMATIC EVENTS

The Herrmanns are well known for
their mastery of magic. The name was
first made prominent by Carl Herr
mann in the early forties. He visited
every civilized city in the world, ana
amassed a large fortune. Since ms
demise the name has been perpetuated
by Alexander, his younger brother
and Leon, q nephew. Both Alexander
and Leon made their debut as assist
ants to Carl. Leon, the present Herr
mann, is a most remarkable man OF
mystery. His marvellous slight OF
hand and sensational illusions are a
revelation to modern theater gOers. The
most difficult and impossible feats are
nightly performed with grace and
finish that astOunds admirers OF IeSer-
demain. The press everywhere has been
lavish in praise of this Prince of Dark
ness Hermann will appear at the
Crawford theater Wednesday night
"A Lady of Quality" the dramatiza-
ton of Mrs. Burnett's book of the
same name, made successful in the
east by Julia. Arthur, will be seen at
the Crawford theater on Friday night
and Saturday afternoon. In speaking
of this play from his pulpit, Rev. Chas-
H. Eaton of New York said: THE book
and play, A Lady of Quality naturally
divides itself into dramatic scenes. At
Clorinda Wildairs becomes the com
paniOn of her father. a riOtOus, drink
ing man; at Il she falls under the in
fiuence of Sir John OxOn, and the great
out alone, without the aid of material
and virtuOus training. Her moral life
awakens through her own courage, she
becomes victorious over evil Influences,
and the continuance of the story shows
a steady growth in strength and no
bility of character. While this romance
has all the inherent traits of historical
fiction, it nevertheless appeals to Ger
tain lives which are now being lived
There are those in our wOrk-a-day

EQUIPMENT IN DEMAND.
Orders For Cars and Locomotives Con-
tinue to Be Placed.

During September orders for 1O,369
cars of all kinds have been noted. OF
these cars 4,S3O were box, stock, furni-
ture and refrigerator cars; 2575 were
coal and gOndOla cars; 200 were steel
cars; 700 were fiat cars, so We're tank
cars and ia were for passenger and
street railroad service. OF the 10,369
cars noted. about 1900 are to be built
by railroads in their own shops. Or
ders for 237 locomotives were also no.
ted, of which "a were for export, and
the approximate division of types was
48 passenger locomotives, 157 freight 10
comotiVes and 80 switching locomotives.
The number of locomotives noted was
exactly the same as for August
1t will be noted, says the Railroad
Gazette, that the car orders fell off by
about 1000 from the August record,
which was a very large one for the sea-
son, but the September orders are still
almost double those noted in July. 1t
is known that orders are being with
held on account of the high prices, at
least one large order being deferred and
some others reduced in size, on this ac-
count.

MANY RAILROADS.
Over $500 Miles of Track Laid In
Nine Months.

AS many miles of new road were com
pleted in the United States during the
three months ending September 80 as
were built in the first six months of the
year, making in round numbers a total
of 2,700 miles of track laid from Jan
uary to September 80, says the Rail
way Age A survey of the field shows
that work has progressed steadily since
July 1, but that not as much has been
accomplished in the way of completed
road as had been anticipated. This
does not indicate that there has been
any perceptible abandonment of the
work undertaken during the fore part of
the year, but it means that the prosper
ity of the country is so general and
that the demand for labor and material
is so great that railway builders have
found it impossible to secure sufficient
men and supplies to carry on the work
with the speed desired.
From many sections of the country
comes the almost continual cry of a
lack of wOrkmen. Many hundreds of
miles of road are under construction at
the present time, which can not be COM
pleted this year, owing, first, to the
scarcity of labor, and second, to the in
ability to secure rails and track sup
plies The demand for steel rails is so
great that mills are unable to fill or
ders for early delivery, and it is like
wise practically impossible to secure
relaying rails at any price. For these
reasons much work which had been
planned for completion this year will
have to be postponed until 1900 so far
as putting down the rails is concerned,
although grading is being continued
with such forces as can be obtained.
The 2. ZOO miles of track laid thus far
during 1899 exceed the total mileage for
any year since 1892, with the exception
of 1898, when $3.50 miles were COM
pleted.
Although Arkansas leads at the pres
ent writing with 234 miles of track,
she Will soon be passed by Iowa, which
now has 203 miles completed, and which

Albuquerque Rumors.

Albuquerque, Oct. 1O.-A rumor is
afloat to the effect that the extensive
and substantial improvements are con-
templated by the Santa Fe Railroad
company, and in all probability a very
decided change will be made here in
the near future. It is said that the
company has decided to erect a. hotel
building, which will not be equalled by
any hotel along the Santa F'e system.
1t is now understood, when a, hotel is
erected at Albuquerque, it will occupy
another site from the present eating
house, and that the switch yards are
to be removed farther from the busi-
ness portion of the city. A gentleman
of considerable prominence, who arriv-
ed here from the east a few days ago
was in conversation with the manager
of one of Harvey'S eating houses. and
from him it was also learned of the
above mentioned contemplated i'm
proVementS.
