being conducted without suspicion by
having letters delivered at letter

FLYER"
Ditched byFreight
Engine.
FourDe Deaths Result From
a Wreck.
Member Of Freight Crew Made
Fatal Error.

Chicago, Dec. 30.-Four persons were
killed and 90 injured, several Of them
possibly fatally, in n collision on the
Chicago & Northwestern railroad Sun
day, at Malta, ILL.,, 60 miles west of
Chicago.
The train in collision were "the Oma-
la Flyer" an eastbound passenger
train, and an eastbound freight train.
The wreck caught fire and two pas
senger coaches, one sleeping car and
eight freight cars were burned, and
another sleeping car was partially con-
sumed.
The dead:
George W. Rudio, western agent
Kirk Soap Co., residence Omaha.
Mrs. George w. Itudio, Omaha.
ID. D. Nichols, Council Bluffs, la.
IL. b. Duncan, sleeping car porter,
Chicngo.
With the exception of three en-
ployes of the road, Curran, Larrabee
and ONeill, who were seriously hurt,
the injured are suffering from bruises
and cuts from falling glass.
Duncan, the sleeping car porter, was
the only person killed outright. Mr..
and Mrs. Rudio and Mr.. Nichols died
from their injuries while being
brought TO Chicago.
The injured passengers were attend
ed Immediately by surgeons from
Rochelle and DeKalb, and later were
removed to ST Lukes hospital in
Chicago, by special train.
The freight train had taken siding
at Malta, but the train was longer
than the siding and the freight loco
motive protrudcd upon the main track
beyond the side track. The incoming
train from the west was not stopped
until the two locomotives "cornered"
at the switch, the passenger engine be-
ing thrown into the ditch and several
coaches piling upon the wreck The
cars caught fire from the locomotive.
A statement given out by officials of
the railroad company explains that
the switch at the east end of the sid
ing was opened through mistake, and
that the responsibility probably lies
with some members of the crew of the
freight train. The statement places
the company $ property loss ut about
$30,0OO.

The purpose of ex-senator Pettigrew's
trip out here from South Dakota was
brought to light yesterday, previous to
his departure on an eastbound train. He
did not go to Tonopah, as was given out
the other day, but instead went out to
examine the Iron Mines group of claims
in Lander county, Nevada, and upon his
return Friday a deal was closed in which
he and A. II. Hyde and Jesse w. Fox, jr.'
Of this city became the possessors of that
big gold property.
The price at which it sold was $4,000,
and the first payment of $4,000 was
made through Mccormick Il Co.'s bank
Friday afternoon, the vendors being
James Johnston, w. NJ. Bradley and V.
IL. Pease. The balance of the purchase
price Is to be made in four equal install.
ments, sixty days apart, and that the
mine itself will furnish the money is
practically assured, as a force OF fifteen
men is now employed, and four of them
working on ore have taken out over 400
tons of $40 free milling rock silce the 7th
Of the present month.
1t is the intention of the purchasers to
equip the property with a mill as soon as
possible and begin converting the ore
into bullion, and as it is located only
