Death instantaneous.

1t was then RAPIDLY growing dark
and nothing more was seen of the
unfortunate man till Motorman
Cook was Mortified at the sight of
his pr ostrate form just as the fender
IF the car passed over him. The
doomed man made no move nor ut
tered a sound so far as is known and
there does not~appear to have been
a death struggle.
The fact that only the head and
shoulders were inside the rail and
that the right leg was broken with
out the marks that would appear if
it we're done by the wheel, leads to
the conclusion that Archer had fall
en- into the cattle guard near which
he was lying. breaking the member.
His cap was found in the guard and
he had vomited there. He had strug-
yled on a few feet and probably
tainted from pain. He was UNI
1oubtedly unconscious and il is eN-
tremely unlikely he could have fallen
asleep with a broken leg. The rea-
son he was not seen in time to use
the fender and push him off the rails
was partly due to a board fence
which reaches the track at the
guard and threw shadow from the
headlight partly over his PROSTATE
form.

Had Been Drinking.

Archer was single and - years of
age. During the summer he worked
as toamster at Rock Island arsenal,
but recently he had been engaged in
cutting wood near Black Hawk
Watch Tower, living in an old house
there with William Ladue and James
Conlin. Yesterday he came to Rock
Island and when he left the city he
boarded the car that afterward
crushed out his life at Fourth ave-
nue. and Seventeenth street at in
the afternoon. IL is claimed he was
intoxicated then and on the way out
he told Conductor Cook that he had
been in a fight, thus accounting for
number of scratches and bruises
tina; his face bore. At Sears he got
off the car and went to Emil Luch-
mann's saloon to inquire for one of
the men who was working with him
and not finding the object of his
search he started up the hill. Mr..
Luchmann testified at the inquest
] that Archer did no; drink at his
place and that he (Luchmann) adj
Sised him to go home by way of the
wagon road to avoid danger of being
caught on the track.

The Seattle Gas 4 Electric co. has
scored a point in It's light against

ford of tho federal court decided that

no right to prevent u from doing

After lengthy summing up OF
points, the judge said.
1T Ia my conclusion that ordinance
No. G,430 r. void. because the com
plalnant has perpetual franchise
by ordinances No. 20 and No. 2at
which cannot be annulied by the
city government, because such ac-
ton IL forbidden by the clause OF
the national constitution to which
I have referred"
The Judge declared that the attor-
nays for the gas company, meaning
Judge Burke and his associates, ala
nothing improper in securing the
passage Of the ordinance No. $40.
upon which the gas company found
ed itp case against the city.
Further. Judge Hanford remarked;
1T II not 10 be presumed that either
party would fare better or worse In

etc.
The case was made known TO the
public this morning through the col.

discussion.
After reading IL, Corporation C0un-
