CAUGHT BY A "DINKY" TRUCK
which Was Being Pulled BY Street Car
Legs, Arms and Body Terribly
Lacerated--At Aultman

Albert UftrinS, lad probably IA yeaYz
Of age, living at 1890 Linden avenue,
was seriously and almost fatally in
jured on the electric railway line, at
the intersection of Hazlette avenue and
West Tuscarawas street, Friday night
at 6 o'clock.
One Of the large interurban cars was
proceeding towards the western part of
the city, pulling along q "dinky," a low
truck upon which narrow gauge cars
are hauled to the repair barns. Just
how young Uftring became entangled in
the truck, IL not known. Several small
boys who witnessed the accident, said
the boy was waiting to cross the street
when the car came along. He waited
for 1t to pass, when he quickly stepped
forward, not seeing the truck, and
was thrown and dragged along the
track. Employees Of the railway COM
pany say that Uftring

and rode along, and when he tried to
jump Off at Hazlette avenue to 60
home, was thrown under the truck.
However, just as Charles Uftring, q
brother Of Albert, was passing along
Tuscarawas street at Hazlette avenue,
he heard his younger brothers cries,
and ran forward into the street, where
the lad was lying. BY this time the
car had returned. The boy was lifted
into the car and quickly hauled to
Cleveland avenue and removed to the
office of DR.. e. d. Brant, where his
injuries, were attended to with the as
slstanfe Of DIR. A. c. Brant.
The boys left leg was terribly lac
Grated. Through the dragging process,
the skin was torn loose at a. point be-
low the left knee and 1t was rolled
downwards exposing the flesh for about
eight inches. The same kind of an in
jury was also found in the left foot.
The muscles in the left thigh were also
badly torn, and the sand and dirt from
the street was

resulting in intense inflammation. The
large bone in the lower part of the left
leg was also cracked. The knee Joint
also was badly torn.
The boy was placed under the in
fiuence of anaesthetics and the wounds
dressed, after which he was taken to
the Aultman hospital for further sur
gical attendance.

There was some further discussion OF
the political situation, after which the
meeting adjourned.
President Sterling announces that the
National Democratic committee had set
apart october % as a Democratic rally
day all over the country, and that there
would be a meeting held in Canton that
day, due announcement of which would
be made.
A LOCAL TRUST.
One of the speakers said that Roose-
welt and the other Republican candi-
dates at the tabernacle had talked q
great deal about the ice trust of New
York, "but, my fellow citizens" said
the speaker, you do not need to go out
of Canton to find a most infamous ice
trust-a trust that charges the poor
man at the rate of s1e a ton for ice and
furnishes it to the big rich consumers
at "a per ton. CA voice-"Yes and we
have all been paying tribute to that
trust.")
The speaker further said that he
wanted to warn the Democrats against
the frauds that the Republicans were
getting ready to perpetrate by register
ing persons who were not entitled to
vote. He said he had overheard a con-
versation that led him to believe that
the plan was to run in an average Of
five voters in each precinct in Stark
county, which would mean a gain Of
400 or 500 fraudulent votes for the Re-
publicans. A few years ago. so many
were run over into Stark from Carroll
county that the Republicans down there
lost three county candidates, and came
very near losing the county for the head
of the ticket.

THREE YEARS
In THE COURTS.
ng-Drawn.Out Case Finally
Comes to Trial Again.
THERE'S ONLY $500 AT STAKE
But the suit Has Been Tried Twice In
Common Pleas, and Bas Ben
Clear Up to supreme
Court.

A note Of Dominick Tyler Is the cause
of lawsuit commenced before Judge
Taylor and jury at 4 o'clock Thursday
afternoon. b. Dannemiller & Sons sued
Henry Leonard & Sons for $723.95 on
account for groceries bought. The
Leonards admit that they bought the
goods, but claim that they are entitled
to a credit of $550.41 on the account.
They set up that they transferred to B.
Dannemiller & Sons a promissory note
given by Dominick Tyler. and that
they agreed to and did accept such note,
but finding that Tyler was insolvent
tried to come back on the Leonards
and collect the whole debt.
Dannemillers claim that Leonards
agreed to endorse the note and stand
for its payment, and that when they
came to examine the note they found
1t was signed Henry Leonard, without
recourse" Then they sent the note
back and demanded payment in full.
This case has had quitesa history in
the courts. 1t was tried twice in the
common pleas court, once in the circuit
court, then taken to the supreme court,
where the findings Of the lower courts
were set aside and the case remanded to
the common pleas for new trial.
The case has been in litigation for
over three years and the costs and at
torney fees have reached an amount
many times in excess Of what is involv-
ed in the action.
Leonard & Son won the case in former
trials.
Sterling & Braucher represented the
Dannemillers and Webber & Turner the
Leonards.

good attendance and plenty of enthu-
siasm.
Upon the call of reports of commit
tees, Squire J. II. Reigner, for the COM
mittee on resolutions, offered the fol-
lowing:
Whereas, attempts are being made
by cetain corporations to intimidate
workingmen by the threat of orders re-
ceived conditioned on the election Of the
Republican national ticket; and,
Whereas, the right to vote as man
pleases is as sacred and inviolable as
the right to worship God according to
the dictates of his own conscience;
therefore, be 1t
Resolved, that the Bryan and Steven
son club Of Canton, Ohio, denounces any
and all attempts of corporations to
coerce their workingmen into voting
contrary to their wishes.
In the free exercise Of the right of suf-
frage lies the
SAFETY OF THE REPUBLIC,
and the man, employe or corporation
who seeks to destroy this right is as
much of an enemy to the Republic as
the man who seeks to carry elections by
fraud and repeating, and therefore, be

Resolved that all such attempts Of
corporations or employers to interfere
with the free exercise of the ballot shall
be reported by the officers of this club
to the Democratic press of the state
and nation so that the public may know
who these destroyers Of political liberty
are.

WHITAKER TALKS.
Declares He Is Not the Man Who
Shot GOebel.


LOUISVILLE, KY, Jan. 31.-Harland
Whitaker, who was suspected of having
shot Senator Goebel, and who was
brought here last night from Frankfort,
was. somewhat nervous today, as re-
stt of the excitement, but he still per-
sists In asserting his innocence, and said
he had no fear of the outcome OF his
trial.

'.and never thought of doing so. was
there simply as friend of Taylor. to
see with the others that he. had justice
done him was sitting In the state
house when we heard the shots fired.
Two. other men were there, and they
were talking about insurance. One or
them had brown beard, and If they will
they can come forward and clear me.
But / am not afraid, for / know ] am
innocent, and that when the case comes
I'M I will be cleared. They cannot con-
yict an innocent man. They cannot show
where I shot at Mr.. Goebel, and all there
is against me is that 1 had the pistols,
but If they arrested everybody In Frank
fort who was armed, half the population
would be In Jail before the day was
over"
So many people called at the jail to
see Whitaker that Jailer Penalez OF
dered him confined In an upstairs room.
No one is to be allowed to call on him
during the remainder of his .connnenent
simply because they are curious to know
how the suspect looks He WILL be al
lowed to see the constables and news

out.
