to meet next Tuesday, by which time
it is thought that the time for hold

has it that Chairman Knickerbocker
refused to call the meeting, but nine
members signified their willingness
to the assembling Of the committee,
and rather than have it said that he
was forced to call it, Mr.. Knicker-

together as said above The Frink

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
Arm Crushed and Internal Injuries
Sustained That Nav Be
Fatal

The Eaton Register: A frightful
accident occurred to Mr. s. IL:
Bucher, living at New Hope, last
Friday morning, which cost him the
loss of his left arm and may be the
cause of his death. Bncher was
operating a corn shredder belonging
to Harry Curry and had just started
up the machine, when he happened
to think he had left the safety gate
down over the rollers Not wishing
to stop the machine. he climbed up
and reached in to raise the gate
when his fingers caught in the roll
ers, drawing his arm in to
the elbow. His presence of mind
saved his ! body from being taken
into the rollers, but the force of the
fall fractured two ribs and almost
severed his left ear from his head. As
soon as possible Bucher was extrica
ted from his perilous position and
taken home.
| DIR. Conley was Immediately tele-
phoned for and when he arrived ht
| found the bones of the arm groune
into pieces, not one of which was tive
inches in length and proceeded Il

The patient is still living, but in
very critical condition. owing to in

Up the Accounts for the Company
And Assume the Contract.

The c. Z. Loss matter is over.
The history of it is as follows in
brief:
On the 4th day of October sensa-
tional suit was filed in the United
States court at Indianapolis by G. E..
Loss for G. E. Loss & company, who
are contractors for the, grading of
the Cincinnati, Richmond Il Muncie
railroad from Cottage Grove to Nun
Gle, about sixty miles.
Subsequent to the fling of the
suit in Indianapolis, the credit
ors of Loss & Company on
the line of road filed attachment
suits and had a temporary r, ceiver
appointed for Loss & Co. in Indiana
on the line of the Cincinnati, Rich
mond & Muncie railroad, not affect
ing them in any other place. 1t
seems that Mr.. Henry Herman, vice
president of the firm of c. f. Loss
s. Co., and Mr.. A. E. Smith, treas
urer, of Milwaukee, are large stock
holders in Loss & Co. These gen
tlemt n are entirely responsible
and disclaim any desire for litiga-
tion, and have dismissed the
suit brought by Loss 81 Co. il
Indianapolis. They have come for
ward and have taken hold of the
work, and are now completing the
contract under its original terms
The affairs of Loss & Co. along the
line of the road are being rapidly
Strengthened out, the receivershil
has been dismissed and the work
seems to be progressing satisfactorily
to both Messrs. Herman and Smith
and tee railroad company.
