DEATH WAS NEAR.
Elmer Gritman Whirled Around q
Shafting-Severe Injuries.

Elmer Gritman, IL years old, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel s. Gritman, of
% Richmond avenue, had a mervellous
escape from death yesterday morning
while at his work at the Empire silk
mill at Simpson. AS it is, he lies at
his home with a broken leg, ruised
from head to foot, and perhaps in
ternally injured.
Elmer is employed to look after the
machinery in the MILL which is all un-
der the main flooring, to provide
against just such accidents to the
help as he met with yesterday. In the
course of his duties he has to clean
the shaftng. About 10 o'clock yes
terday morning, while engaged in pol
ishing the shafting, he felt a sudden
tug at the corner of his tightly-but-
toned blouse, and before he realized
his predicament, he was drawn up by
the betting and set rapidly revolving.
He is n lad that weighs about 175
pounds in spite of his years, and the
space between the top of the shafting
and the floor beams is but fourteen
inches. The machinery was whirling
away at the rate of 40 revolutions a
minute, and it was fully half a minute
before the machinery could be stop
ped, so he must have been dragged
into that narrow hole and out again
about sixty times. His clothes dill
not give way under the terrific strain,
hut when he was released they were
found to be cut into ribbons all the
way through to the skin.
| AS soon as he had been released,
| Superintendent Frieder telephoned for
a sleigh TO take him to his home and
also telephoned for Dr.. Lowry to go
| to Gritman'S house to be in readiness
to attend him at once. DR.. Lowry
found that his leg was broken and
that he was bruised as described. The
| leg was so greatly swollen that IL
could not be determined whether boti,
bones were broken. His head was
also badly marked at the brow by
coming in contact with the beams
above the shafting, his eyes We're both
discolored his chest had the skin
torn from it, and he frequently eN-
perforated blood. AS he went around
the top of the shaft, his head would
strike, then his leg. and 1t Is won
der that his skull is not fractured. His
underclothes, new yesterday, were
torn to tatters.
When seen by a Tribune man yes
terday afternoon young Mr.. Grtman
| was lying on 4 cot in the parlor OF
his home. He was able to tell of his
terrible experience with full detail
and seemed not to have suffered much
as far as his reasoning faculties were
| concerned,
