DEATH ON THE RAIL.
Westbound Limited Wrecked Near
Wells Sunday Night.

The grade just east Of Wells was
the scene Of a terrible accident which
happened Sunday night about 10
o'clock to the westbound flyer known
as passenger train No. l.. The Wells
helper engine, with James Mcbride
engineer and Dan Highmam fireman
was coupled on ahead of the engine of
the passenger train, Engineer Warner
and Fireman Charlie Loder.
The train was coming down the hill
at terrific speed when a wheel broke
on the truck of the head engine, and
the engines and cars piled up in a heap
with only the diner and one sleeper
remaining on the track.
The engines turned over and both
were demolished. The two mail cars
and all the mail were burned. Though
three Of the Pullman sleepers left the
track they but slightly damaged
and none of the passengers we're hurt.
Engineer Mcbride was badly scald-
ed on the face and arm, but while the
injuries are painful they are not dan
gerous, and he is able to sit up. Eng
ineer Warner was also scalded but re-
ceived no serious injury. The escape
of the engineers was little short of
miraculous as both fireman were in
stantly killed.
The body Of Fireman Highman has
not been found and If 1t is will likely be
but a mass of broken bones and CHAIR
ed flesh.
The body of Fireman Loder was
taken to Elko yesterday afternoon and
prepared for shipment to Reno where
it arrived this morning. While all the
railroad men who were in the wreck
are known here the best known was
Charlie Loder. He was a Reno boy
and began work on this division at this
point several years ago. He leaves a
mother and father at Reno, and a sis
ter, Miss Echo Loder. teacher in the
public schools.
The young man was a universal
favorite and all Wadsworth sympathizes
with the father. mother. and sister, in
their affliction.

BURGLARS ABROAD.
Three Business Houses Entered
Sunday Night.

There were burglars abroad in the
the city Sunday evening and they
made a number of visits, but without
securing any great amount of "swag."
The thieves entered the Porter
Lumber Company office by breaking
in a north window. They tore loose
the money drawer and may have Sc
cured a few coppers. They also Sc
cured about three dollars worth of
postage stamps.
The Frank Glaze grocery on West
High Avenue, about a block distant
from the scene of the Porter robbery,
was entered by a window in the rear
of the building. The thieves there
opened the cash till and secured a
few pennies. They went through the
safe, which is left unlocked at all
times for the convenience of thieves.
The burglars found nothing here,
however. There might have been
some tobacco and other small prop
erty taken, but not to any great
amount.
The S. P. Ewing grocery on High
Avenue, was the next place visited.
1t was not a very good night for
burglars and the fellows got only a
few pennies and come merchandise
at that place. The, entered the
place by means of a rear window.
They forced the money drawer but
found nothing to modest.
1t is thought that the work of these
artists was done after midnight. The
police have small chance of locating
the guilty parties, as they left no
clews and no business cards.

"a few moments before Czolgosz APP
preached man came along with three
fingers of his right hand tied up in a band
age and he had shaken hands with his left.
When Czolgosz came up noticed he was
boyish-looking fellow with an innocent
face, perfectly calm, and I also noticed
that his right hand was wrapped in what
appeared to be bandage. / watched him
closely, but was interrupted by the man in
front of him, who held on to the pres
dents hand an unusually long time. This
man appeared to be an Italian and wore
short. heavy black mustache. He was
persistent and 1t was necessary for me to
push him along so that the others could
reach the president. Just as he released
the presidents hand and as the president
was reaching for the hand of the assassin
there were two quick shots. Startled for
moment, l looked and saw the president
draw his right hand up under his coat,
straighten up and, pressing his lips togeth-
err give Czolgosz the most scornful and
contemptuous look possible to imagine.
"At the same time reached for the
young man and caught his left arm. The
big negro standing just back of him and
who would have been next to take the
presidents hand. struck the young man
III the neck with one hand and with the
other reached for the revolver. which had
been discharged through the handkerchief
and the shots from which had set fire to the
linen.
Immediately a dozen men fell upon the
assassin and bore him TO the floor. While
on the floor CZolgosz again tried to dis
charge the revolver, but before he could
point it at the president. it was knocked
from his hand by the negro. 1t flew across
the floor and one of the artillerymen picked
1t up ard put it in his pocket.
ION the way down to the station Cool
sosz would hot say a word, but seemed
greatly agitated.''

CZOLGOsZ IDENTIFIED.
New York Cigarmaker Tells What He
Knows Of the Fellow.

Buffalo, N. Y, Sept. o.-walter
Nowak. a New York cigarmaker,
formerly of Cleveland, was taken into
the room where Czolgosz was being
examined. After glancing at the
prisoner he said he knew him in
Cleveland two years ago. At that
time Nowak was a reporter on for
cign newspaper and in common with
him and q number of his countrymen
formed n social organization that
later developed into socialistic club
and he (Nowak) withdrew from it..
He states that he remembers some
of the radical resolutions adopted by
the club and brought to him for use
in his paper. He mad always found
it necessary to alter them materially
to make them proper material for
publication. He said that Czolgosz
was without sufficient intelligence to
originate such IL crime as the prisoner
had been guilty of.
Was Disciple of Emma Goldman.
81 knew Czolgosz in Cleveland"
said Nowak. "He belonged to sew
eral secret societies and one of them
was anarchistic. l think the idea of
assassination had been turning in
Czolgosz' mind for some time, as that
sort of business is what is taught
in the society to which he belongs.
He is we'll known in Cleveland, Chi
cago and other western cities, where
he has talked his doctrine. He was a
disciple of Emma Goldman"

ESOrt Being Made to Keep Prcsl-
dent Quiet-Visitors Excluded.
Buffalo, N. Y, Sept. 1.-Two physi-
Clans and two trained nurses are
with the president constantly. All
others were excluded from the sick
room Saturday morning, as it was
found that the distinguished patient
could not be restrained from speak
ing to those who entered the room.
Quiet and absolute freedom from the
least excitement are considered es-
sential. Even Mrs. Mckinley had not
seen him Saturday morning. She was
in the sickroom Friday night after
the president had recovered from the
effects of the operation. She dis
played wonderful pluck and nerve
and is bearing up bravely. 1t is prob
able that she will see the president
later in the day.
Fear Septic POisOning.
The fear of the presidents physi-
clan is that septic poisoning will set
in, and it is for the first symptoms
of this that they are now watch
ing. The bullet lodged in the muscles
Of the back, and the physicians have
decided for the present it is of sec
ondary importance. The bullet took
a downward course, but neither the
intestines nor the kidneys were in
jured. OF this the physicians are con-

he had no confederate, that he Was entire

The prisoner Czolgosz was taken
down to the Office of Superintendent of

Saturday morning the prisoner
Czolgosz was photographed and copies
of the pictures are being made as rap
idly as possible and distributed broad
cast.
The revolver with which President
Mckinley was shot was turned over to
Superintendent of Police Bull Satur-
day by Capt. Wiser, to whom it had
been handed by the soldier who recoy-
