to the city hall, from where he was
later taken to the Deaconess hospital
and waited upon by DR. Duggan who
made him as comfortable as possible.
How the man ever escaped instant
death is a conundrum, as he had fallen
fully 45 feet from the N. P. railroad
bridge, and had hit upon some rocks
and a saw log or two. 1t is thought,
however, that he will recover, as his
only serious injuries SO far as discov-
cred are several broken ribs and a
slight fracture of the shoulder blade.
B He was still unconscious at mid
night last night but was breathing
easier and seemed gaining rapidly.
Before the accident he was crossing the
N. .EP. bridge while in an intoxicated
condition. A switch engine came
along and he stepped to one side to let
it pass. He did not fall at once, but
IT is supposed that in attempting to get
back to the middle Of the track he lost
his balance and fell to the ground be-
low. sS

listers to Tien Tsin. The edict says it
is found necessary to protect the min
isters during the disturbances. AS
Pekin is not yet restored to order, pre-
cautionary measures may not secure
absolute security. The ministers, be-
ing consulted, proposed a plan dealing
with troops to escort them to Tien
Tsin for temporary shelter. The
edict commands Jung Lu to provide
sufficient escort to protect the minis
ters whenever they agree upon leav-
ing Pekin. If the foreign ministers,
before leaving, desire to communicate
with their governm ents and if the tele-
graphic messages should be in plain
language, the tsung Ii yamen shall inn
mediately attend to them.
