BODY NOT RECOVERED
Additional Details of the Drowning
OF Engineer Pryor.


FL Reno, o. T.. May 1s.-The body Of J.
c. Pryor. who was drowned in the
washita river near Chickasha Thursday.
has not been recovered Additional de-
tails of the drowning were secured as
follows:
The deplorable accident was witnessed
by half hundred men. but assistance
could not reach the drowning man. The
young man had been at work with his
corps on the line east of the river. Early
yesterday morning he crossed the Wash
tia and 1t the time of the accident was
coming back TO the west side in company
with his tape-man.
The river is very high from the recent
rains and is flowing at very rapid rate.
Ropes have been stretched across the
river to assist the workmen in making
the crossing. Hundreds of men went
back and forth yesterday without acct
dent Mr.. Pryor and his companion prob
ably did not know how TO manage the
boat in the swift current. or became ex-
cited Those who witnessed the accident
say that when the boat was about half
way across the river it was seen to tip
from the weight OF the take-man who
was swinging the boat across. The bow
OF the boat went under and Mr. Pryor,
who was IN the other end Of the boat
and away from the rope. was thrown
into the water. He was carrying a
heavy surveying instrument and it IS
probable that the care he exhibited in
protecting that aided in costing him his
life
The current swept him away quickly
and not until the workmen heard his
cries for help did anyone realize that he
was drowning. other workmen had
crossed the river safely by swimming.
At any rate, the current was so swift
that no one could have reached him, as
the only boat was carried down the river.
Searching parties were sent out but at
dark last evening the body had not been
found.
Mr.. Pryor was a young man about 80
years of age. Every man working on
the road spoke in the highest terms of
him and deeply regret his sudden death.
He was from Pinckard, Ky and a tele-
gram was at once sent 10 his people.
The tape-man who was in the front
part Of the boat, got ashore without as
sistance.

afternoon Mr. Cullom presented the con

but that they would not agree TO the
amendment providing 5000 a year for
the minister's house rent or for that

The senate conferees had therefore
yielded as to those two amendments.
The report was agreed to.
