Dashes Through The Safety Gates
Into The Train.
(B the Associated Press.)

Chicago. Ills, Aug. 17.-By the collision
oof a trolley car on the Forty seventh

senger train on the Pennsylvania road

age.
IDA B. OsLER, 80 years old, of Gin
cinnati, Ohio.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN, % years old
The accident occurred at Forty seventh
street and Stewart Avenue, where a large
number of railroad tracks run north
and south at the street level and across
these the street car lines run at right
angles. 1t is the custom of the conduc-
tors to run ahead of their cars and stand
ing upon the tracks to signal the motor
men to advance or remain stationary, ac-
cording to the absence or presence OF APP
preaching trains. The ear, which was
filed with passengers, came up to the
tracks tonight from the West.
The gates across the street car line
were down as passenger train was
moving rapidly south.
Whether the motorman was unable to
control his car or whether he became
confused and turned on the current. is 4
matter of doubt. The car paused mo-
ment as it approached the tracks, but
before Conductor V. j. Fulton could
alight to run ahead of the car. according
to the usual custom, there came violent
lurch, the car shot forward, passed rapid
ly across two intervening tracks and
crashed heavily into the passenger train

CALLING INvENTs A PLOW.
He Says One Man Can Break Thirty Acre
Field in Day.

DR.. r. J. Calling, who invented the
famous rapid fire gun bearing his name,
has turned his attention toward farm
machinery and proposes to revolutioniZe
existing agricultural methods. DR.. Cat
ling is the inventor of a motor pillow,
which he asserts will accomplish from a
comparative standpoint on the farm
what his gun did on the field of battle.
The claim is made by the great inventor
that his pillow, under the guidance of one
man, will break the surface of a thirty
acre field in one day. 1t is the inten-
ton of DR.. Calling and number of st.
Louis promoters to place this invention
on the market. 1t is proposed to organ
ize stock company with not less than
81 DOC, 900 capital. Besides the motor pillow
there are other farm implements that are
being considered by the promoters. 1t
is the intention to erect a large factory
in st. Louis.
DR.. Calling has visited in Raleigh, and
has friends and relatives here who hope
that his inventions for peace will be as
great success as have been those he
made for war.

ON The GULF COAST
(By Associated Press.)

Mobile, Ala, August 1.-THE Gulf

muncation having been re-established
from one point which is central. The
general report is that aside from dam
age TO wharves and bath houses, sail
boats and smacks, trees, outhouses and
fences, the instances of serious loss are
few. There has been no life lost as far
as is known here.
A tug was sent down the bay from
Noble today to investigate the condi-
tions on Mississippi island. where there
are many small islands and about which
some apprehension was felt. The rep
resentative of the press on board was
| instructed to report from the first point
with which he could communicate, but
| up to midnight nothing had been heard
from him.
The steamer Evelyn is ashore near
Pensacola; the schooner Asa G. Stowell
lis stranded in Mobile Bay, the schooner
| Rice is dismasted in the Gulf and has
been towed into Mobile Bay; three
masted schooner, name unknown, has
been sighted in distress fifty miles out
side of Mobile harbor, and the American
bark Julia is ashore and capsized on the
south beach of Horn island. These are
| the marine disasters SO far as known
tonight. The warnings of the approach
| ing storm were so thorough that near
| ly every place in this region was pre-
pared
The coast resorts suffered less damage
than first reports indicated, according
to advices received here. Point Clear,
Mobile Bay, the favorite resort for
this part of the State, lost row of
bath houses and a part of the steam
boat wharf Battles, another resort,
lost part of the steamboat wharf. Por-
tersville, on the south coast, suffered
the loss of number of pleasure craft
and smacks. The Bayou LIE Batre Can.

to the wind, was miraculously protect
ed by the waves washing up mass Of
oyster shells, that served as break
water as we'll as a windbreak.
Pascagoula, Miss, had the full force
of the storm. Bester's cottage on the
beach was washed away. Captain
Volner Browns summer house went
also. The damage In bath houses and
wharves alone there is put at 100000.
Several scows went adrift, one having
aboard lumber owned by the LantZlel
Lumber Company.
Moss Point, Miss, the saw mill town.
sustained heavy damage by logs being
carried away.
At Biloxi, Miss, the beautiful new
club house was demolished, together
with several cottages. One fisherman
is reported drowned.
The most serious damage to Mobile is
the partial destruction of the famous
bay shore shell road. This drive extends
seven miles down the western shore of
| the bay. 1t has been washed out for a
mile or more, the whole foundation be-
| ing carried off, and in its place is a
vast quantity of three trunks, drift
wood, and saw logs. 1t will take sew
