WINCHELL TALKS
OF FRISCO SYSTEM
VICE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL
MANAGER SAYS ROAD is AFTER
MORE RUsINEss-1oo NEW EN-
oINES FOR EQUIPMENT.

3. L. Winchell, first vice president and
general manager of the Frisco System,
and acting president during President
Yokum's absence in Europe. arrived in
Birmingham from st. Louis yesterday
morning, accompanied by his wife and
son. Ben Winchell Jr., and also by C.
H. Begg, second vice president and as
sistant general manager, and Fl. M. Flick
niger superintendent. The party is stop
ping at the Hillman.
Mr.. Winchell had not been to this city
to spend as much as a day for some time
past. Asked If there was any special sig
nifcance in his visit he replied:
II am here merely to inspect our prop
critics and to see Birmingham. find the
line In good condition and everything
working smoothly. The Frisco Is well
equipped, but there is always room for
improvement Our policy is to keep fully
abreast of the times, and to that end
we are adding all the while Goth to our
passenger and freight service the most
approved appliances.
THE Birmingham district gives the
Frisco system a large volume Of traffic
OF course, but like every progressive line
1t Is reaching for more. Last fall all the
roads in the country were overtaxed and
were greatly hampered on account of a
scarcity of locomotives and cars. The
congested situation has been relieved by
the addition Of new equipment. The
Frisco has added very largely to Its
rolling stock. From Oct ober l until July
1 the number Of new engines that the
system will have received will reach
nearly 100."
In reply to a question In regard to the
extension of the Frisco's tracks here
abouts Mr.. Winchell said he could only
answer in a general way. I'VE are
eager" he remarked, mot only to do
every thing to meet the existing demands
of shippers. but as I have already init
mated to acquire new business"
Mr.. Winchell was deeply impressed with
the rapid and solid growth of Birming-
ham and predicted a great future for the
city. He and his party will return to St.
Louis this morning

years old, was run over and badly bruised
last night by a trap driven by a white

and two other white men. The party in
the trap failed to stop and even inquire
what damage they had done, although
witnesses state they could not have failed
to have known they had run over the
boy.
The accident happened near the corner
of Avenue B and Twelfth street about 10
o'clock. The little boy was playing with
several other children on the street. 1t
is not known whether he saw the trap,
and 1t Is supposed II he did see 1t 1t was
too late to get out of dangers way. Wit
nesses state the horses were not pulled
up either before or after the boy was
run over. and the police are very anxious
to catch the parties who were in the
trap.
The wheels of the trap passed over the
boys legs and he is badly bruised about
the face and body. No bones were broken.
Policemen Jones and McCallum were
about one block away and state the party
of five went to a saloon just after the
accident and then drove rapidly away.
