DIES OF HIS INJURIES
John Wymer, Hurt in Railroad
Yards, Expires at St. An.
thongs Hospital.
LIMBS HAD BEEN AMPUTATED
Had Been No Hope of Saving
His Life-Victim of Hyp-
notism.

John Wymer, the 15-year-old Dav-
EXPORT boy injured in the Rock Is
land railroad yards early yesterday
morning, died at noon today at St.
Authony's hospital.
Two hours before his death an
operation was performed upon him
by Drs. S. B. Hall. OF this city, and
j. B. Crawford, of Davenport, for the
amputation of his legs, one at the
knee and the other above. both of
which were terribly mutilated by the
car wheels. There was little hope of
saving the boys life, as he was so
weakened by the shock of the accident
that it was feared he would succumb
before his wounds could be dressed.
Mind Upset by HypnotIsm.
The story comes from Davenport
that John was victim of hypnotic
influences. Daring the past two years
he had served as a subject for the
Flints on their visits to the city, his
mind becoming shattered by the
strain to which he was put. 1t was
necessary to take him out of school,
as he could not concentrate his
thoughts on his studies His partici-
patton in these performances had the
effect of creating desire to wander.
He started Tuesday night. and the
accident that caused his death was
the result.

and to the c., M. & St. P railway, and
that we invite him TO visit our city

date as possible, and in any case be-
fore the matter is fnallyedetermined;
and the local representatives of the
Chicago, Milwaukee 81 st. Paul road
are hereby requested to take the
proper measures to bring this resolu-
ton to Mr.. Earnings attention, and
obtain reply thereto.
The secretary of the committee was
instructed to send a copy of the reso-
luton to the Moline Business Men s
association and Retail Merchants as
ISOLATION and ask their concurrence.
On motion of MIR. Medill the resolu-
ton recently passed by the Retail
Merchants association asking the
Burlington to restore the passenger
accommodations to the people of the
upper end of the county was Endorsed.
Other Railroad Questions.
The committee will first give it's
attention to the Milwaukee, taking up
matters with the other roads as they
present themselves. The prospect of
retaining to the city some of those
families affected by the removal of
freight terminals to the Hawthorn
yards at Moline appeared encouraging,
and as one means of assisting the men,
it was suggested that the Tri-City Rail-
way company be asked to consider the
extension of its Fourth avenue line to
the new yards in Moline, resolution
to this effect, offered by w. G. Mauck-
er. being adopted. F. G Denkmann,
one of the officers of the Tri-City Kali
way company, who is mem Der of
the club committee, stated the COM
pany had planned for the expenditure
of about all the money it could spare
the coming summer. but if it was
shown that the proposed extension
would be profitable it would probably
be built. Further relief for western
freight crews having homes here was
discussed among other ideas eX-
pressed being the installation of a
call board for the men in the local
roundhouse after the transfer of the
terminals.
The committee adjourned subject
to the call of the chairman.
