The work of the investigation of
the Newburg wreck, held in the Of
fee of Superintendent @. w. Hun
tington, has been completed and re-
suited in no one being cepsured or
made responsible for the accident.
This will be good news to the many
railroad men residing along the line
of the road, all of whom were deeply
interested in the outcome of the in
vestigation. The three engine crews,
Engineers Miles Kelleher, Tom Pa
vey and Tom Cooney, and Firemen
Parks, Trip and Connors, and the
train crew of Conductor George Daw-
son, were all ordered to report for
duty at once, all having been laid off
since the wreck, pending the investi-
cation, excepting Engineer Cooney
and Fireman Connors, who were on
the second engine of the double head

WOMEN AT THE POLLS.
Take a Remarkable Interest In Pri-
mary Elections in
Kansas.

Kansas City, Mo-, Feb. 13.-The pri-
mary election in Kansas City, Kan,
Tuesday was remarkable because of
the activity of the women voters.
Never before since the women of
Kansas were given suffrage, which
made them eligible TO vote at munich
pal and school elections, has there
been such interest manifested among
the sex as in the present mayorality
contest. Eighteen hundred women
registered this year to vote at the
primaries, and many others voted to-
day who had registered last year and
were not required to re-register.
Many women clerks were in evidence
at the election booths.

The Deserted Baby.

The deserted baby left on Rock
leland train Friday was given home
in Washington. About one month
ago a woman arrived in Muscatine in
serious con dition. She as well
dressed, but refused to tell anything
about herself. She was taken to the
poor house, where her child was
born.
The woman remained at the poor
house until Friday afternoon, when
she boarded the "Firefiy" for the
southwest. The brakeman noticed
that she was very attentive to her
child, and when Columbus Junction
was reached he saw her get off the
train and go across the street to a
hotel. He thought nothing about the
child until it was learned half an hour
later that it had been abandoned.
Several trains pass through Columbus
Junction shortly after the "Firefiy,"
and the woman may have boarded
one either for Burlington or the
north. None OF the train crew could
identify her If che we're found, and
it is likely she will not be seen again.
