FIREMAN GETS DIG DAMAGES.
Former D. 4 r. 6. Empioye 10 Award.
ed $49,65o for Injuries.

One OF the largest verdicts for dam.
ages ever awarded In Colorado was
given to J. A. Scott, formerly fireman
on the Denver & Rio Grande railroad,
In the district court at Colorado
Springs. The jury brought In verdict
of $49,S5O for injuries sustained by
him In jumping from runaway train
on the Cumbrie pass In Decembef,
1900.
Scott stuck to his post till he be-
lieved there was no hope Of saving the
train when he jumped. The impact of
his fall literally broke every bone in
his body. Since that time he has been
unable to work and was reduced to a
sad state of restitution. The railroad
company offered quit claim signed
by Scott for $3.50 in full for all dam
ages received to Offset the suit. The
jury refused to consider this more
than to deduct that amount from the
amount sued for by the crippled fire.

cent WAGE lucreaseo.


At meeting OF executive onicials or
central freight lines. the trunk lines
and southern roads held at the Trunk
Line associations headquarters in
New York. rates In the territory con-
trolled by the association have been
generally advanced. says the Journal
OF Commerce. The meeting was called
primarily to discuss export rates. par
ticularly those rates on southern lines
from st. Louis territory, but resolved
itself into conference to advance
rates. The increase Is In line with
action usually taken at the close Of
navigation. :
1t Is learned on high authority that
an increase OF 2h cents per 100
pounds, Chicago-New York basis. ON
grain and grain products was decided
upon. A corresponding advance in
rate on glucose, glucose syrup, corn
oil, corn syrup, ETC.. was made. The
rate on dressed beef was increaned Z
cents per 100 pounds. both domestic
and export. and cents a hundred also
on provisions. The present rates ON
grain products from Chicago to New
York are: Grain, export, 1915 cents:
grain, domestic. I'm cents; grain pro-
ducts, export. Is cents; domestic .17K
cents. The present rates on dressed
beef and provisions. both export and
domestic, are 40 cents and 20 cents.
respectively. The new rates will
take effect on December s.
As to the export rate situation ON
southern lines, II was alleged that
some of the roads had been shading
their rates from st. Louis territory In
favor of southern as against northern
ports, bringing them below the differ
entail. satisfactory understandinw
was reached in this matter, as IL indi-
Gated by the agreement among the rem
resentative lines to advance rates. One
OF those present at the meeting In
quoted as having said
In former seasons. when there was
considerable rate cutting and the rate
situation generally was demoralixed.
increases decided upon brought the
rates up to perhaps not more than the
normal tariff. The advance now agreed

Some time during the stay of Bishop
Smith in the city the Methodist clergy
will give a dinner at Bannons Lodge,
to which all the visiting ministers will
be invited.
With the dedication of Epworth
Church the membership will press for
ward to greater achievements in it's
field of labor. The growth of this
church will be watched with pleasure
by it's many friends throughout the
state. Already the pastor has started
mission work in a section contiguous
to his church, where it is very much
needed. The trustees of Trinity
Church, to whom Epworth is very
much indebted for material and spir-
itual assistance, win be invited to at
tend the dedication.
The trustees of Wesley Monumental
Church, through the sale of a piece of
property which was used at one time
for mission work, very materially aid
ed the membership of Epworth in it's
efforts to wipe out the Indebtedness on
it's property. A few outside friends
have also contributed to this laudable
undertaking.
