s~traighten out Mutual Oil
MuddIe.

J. I. Lamprecht, president of the National
OIL company of Cleveland. o., came to
Omaha Thursday evening and yesterday he
interviewed the grocers of the city
who at one time expressed willingness to
cooperate with his company in the forma-
ton of the Mutual Tank Line company,
which was to be operated in this city for
the sale Of coal oil and gasoline. So far as
can be learned Mr.. Lamprecht did not meet
with the cordial reception which was ac-
corded the secretary of the company when
he first visited Omaha in the interest Of
the cooperative company.
The request Of the grocers to have their
names stricken from the subscription blank
Of the proposed company has been sent to
Cleveland. On the subscription blank there
were twenty-seven signatures and on the
request to have the names stricken from
the list appeared the names of about twenty
individuals and firms who had signed.
While the nature OF the visit of Mr.. Lam
precht is confidential, it is understood that
he has a modified proposition to offer and
that il this proposition is accepted the total
amount Of money to be raised by local sub
scribers will be considerably reduced, II not
entirely wiped out.
AT the same time II is said by interested
grocers that the National Oil company will
endeavor to enforce its lights under the
first subscription paper II the modified plan
is not accepted and that every person who
signed the original subscription blank will
be held for the full amount for which he
subscribed.

FREIGHT WRECK KILLS BOY
John Murphy Of Chicago Loses Life While
Stealing Ride,
his COMPANION IS SERIOUSLY INJURED
Eight Cars Of Special Freight Leave
Rails wOodbine and
Logan, Iowa, and Five
- Are Smashed.

The ditchlng Of a special Chicago & North
western freight train west bound between
woodbine and Logan, Ia, yesterday morn
ing resulted in the death Of one boy who
was stealing a ride, the injuring Of another
and the blocking OF the line for seven hours.
The two boys, the dead and the wounded,
we're together in a box car. They we're
from Chicago. John Murphy, who was
killed, was is years Of age, and lived at S15
West Twenty-hrst street, while his COM
panion, Fred Schultze, lives at % Lincoln
avenue. Schultze is 16 years Of age. Muir
phys father is a carpenter. Schultze was
considerably hurt but was able to give these
particulars, and will live. II is thought
that the boys had run away from home to-
gether.
Eight cars were derailed and FIVE of them
badly smashed. The accident occurred at
4:45, about thirty-fve miles east of Omaha,
on the main line Of the Northwestern. Con-
ductor Herman was in charge of the train,
which comprised eighteen box cars. The
cause Of the accident has not been learned.
The train was not making any great speed
at the time.
Three passenger trains were delayed be-
cause Of the wrecks. No. IL and 1 from
the east, which arrive in Omaha at s
O'Clock and 800 in the morning. respec-
lively, we're behind the freight. They were
taken of the main line at Denison, run
north to Boyer. thence down southwest
again to Mondamin and into Missouri VAL
ley on the main line again via the Sioux
City branch. Thus the blockaded track
age was circled and the extra distance was
only enough to make the trains about an
hour and a half behind time. No 4 also,
the eastbound passenger train which leaves
here at 7:1O a. m, was compelled to take
the same roundabout route from this end.
AT noon, however, the track was cleared
of debris and open for travel.
