HUMPHREY IN BAD WAY.
Weak Hopes in the Case of Victim
of o. & w. Accident.

Jacob Humphrey. of cadOSa. y. "
the brakeman whose leg was so terribly
crushed III the accident near the on
taliO and Western depot in this city n
few weeks ago. is in Il bad way. He is
making no progress towards recovery
and there are the weakest hopes of his
surviving.
Aside from the bad injury to his limb
his physical condition is the poorest
and SO far he has shown almost no
powers of recuperition. His vitality
was low when he was received at the
hospital and he was greatly run down.
The limb from the hi, is bruised so
badly that ii seems necessary to ampu-
tate it. His condition does not indicate
he would survive the shock and for
this reason there is little hope that he
will rally. The umputation of the limb
al The hip seems his only salvation. but
to undertake it at this stage would
only hasten his death.
