THIRD RAILROAD
ACCIDENT IS FATAL
Carl Moline Is Run Down and
Killed byMiIwaukee Train
Near Chestnut Street.

Escaping with his life. after suffer-
: ing serious injuries from railroad trains
twice before, Carl Moline, young man
OF twenty-five years, was run down
and fatally injured by a passenger
train on the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST.
Paul road. near the foot of Chestnut
street, yesterday morning about 8
o'clock.
His head was crushed, his right foot
completely severed from his leg and
several ribs broken. He was removed
as quickly as possible to the city hos
pital, where his leg was amputated
and trepanning attempted on his skull.
All efforts TO save his life proved I'M
awaiting, however, and he died about
$3.50 yesterday afternoon. without re-
covering consciousness after the acct
dent.
Moline, who had been in st. Paul for
only a short time, was employed by his
brother, John Moline, contractor, and
lived at the home of the latter, at SIT
Sherburne avenue.
According to the statement of bar
tender in a nearby saloon, Moline came
in shortly before the accident and ask
ed him the way to South st. Paul and
left at once after receiving an answer
to his question. From the saloon he
went to the crossing of the Milwaukee
tracks at the foot of the street, step
ping on one of the tracks on which the
passenger train was approaching.
Remained on the Track. "''
Another train was coming from the
east at the same time. The Waterman
called to him ito warn him of the dam
ger, but he apparently did not hear
him or paid no attention. for he made
no attempt to get out of the way.aeg =.
. The train nwas running at reduced
speed, but no5attempt was made to stop
until it was seen that Milne was not
going to get out of the way, as it was
supposed he would. The attempt to
stop the train was too late and Moline
was run down
One theory to explain his standing
on the track when he saw the train
approaching is that his prior expert
ences under similar circumstances par
alyzed him With terror when he saw
the engine bearing down upon him,
confused as he might have been by the
noise of the train coming from the 9TH
er direction at the same time.
Deputy Coroner Whitcomb said last
night that he had been Informed of the
accident late in sthe afternoon. The
facts of the case, SO far as he had been
told, he said, did not, in his opinion,
demand an inquest, as 1t was evidently
case of accident. He will not hold
an inquest unless something new de-
yelops in the matter.

the body -t-"S e 80

cows CAUSE A ROW
Nelghbors Appeal to Court to
~'Ls1I Vttot iD-.,.-
Settle It,

A neighborhood row of broad dimen-
sions, two suits for damages and
threats Ola several more, are some of
the results of cows spelling the garden
of F. Neurouter, out in the Arlington
hills district.
Justice Hoff's court Is the scene Of
action. and it is here that half dozen
families of Arlington hills will gather
to settle their differences.
Neurouter is truck gardener in the
neighborhood, and a number of his
neighbors are the owners of cows, some
of which are said to have made a
practice Of going into the garden and
helping themselves to the vegetables
which Neurouter had figured on selling
in the city at fancy prices The first
time the cows made a crusade on the
garden the owners of the bovines were
notified and requested to care for the
animals. Shortly afterwards the cows
were In the garden again, and Neurou-
ter, tired of his neighbors' cows fatten-
ing on his garden truck, went to law.
He brought suit in Justice Hoff's court
against John Holly, o. Spedalski and
others for $50 damages. alleging that
their COWS had damaged his garden to
this extent.
But, while the men were going into
the courts to settle their troubles,
some of their wives, it is alleged,
sought other means of getting even,"
and a fight between two of the women
was the result, if the complaint filed in
Justice Hoffs court is to be relied
upon.
The discussion, which IS said to have
gone beyond the point of warm words.
was between Mrs. Neurouter and Mrs.
Spedalski, and the gardeners wife
complains that Mrs. Spedalski hit,
punched, scratched and beat her with
a scantling, and now Mrs. Neurouter
has brought suit for 800 damages.

AUDITOR FIXES
RATE OF TAX LEVY
Iverson Issues Notice That 1t
viii Be One and One.haIf
Mills.

State Auditor S. G. Iverson has is
sued his customary notice to county
auditors of the state certifying to the
rate of tax levy which it will be neces-
sary to apply to the assessment of 1903
for the purpose of meeting state ex-
penses for the ensuing year.
The rate of the state tax, as fixed in
this letter, which was sent out yester-
day, is " mills. This includes besides
the regular 1-mill levy provided for
under chapter 2S7 of 1903. for state rev.
enue fund; lilo of a mill for the SOL
dlers relief fund, under chapter 148
OF the General Laws of 1897; 2-1O of a
mill for the funding tax fund, under
chapter 128 of the General Laws of
1893, and 2-10 of a mill for the agri-
cultural college fund. under chapter 266
of the General Laws of 1903.
Taxes VIII Reach $775, 200.
Chapter 2S7 of the General Laws of
last winter, providing for the regular
state revenue fund, contemplated a di-
rect leyF of l mill on a total valuation
OF real and personal property through
out the state of SITS, 000, 900, which
would have yielded .$775,00O. The total
assessed valuation for this year, as re-
V1sed by the state board of equaliza-
ton, is approximately $781, 900, 900,
which Will produce taxes of 1871, 900,
but, with the usual proportion of de-
linquencies the collection will not far
exceed the sum as fixed originally.
The funding tax fund, as it is desig-
mated, is for the payment of the old
railroad bonds of 1858; and the agri-
cultural college fund Is a new addition
to the state tax, under a law of last
winter. which provides that $250,000
shall be raised for the state agricul-
tural college in two years. The rev.
enue from this levy of 2-10 of a mill
will be from $4,000 to $145,0OO, which
will leave less than half of the full
amount to be included in the tax of
next year.
In his letter Mr. Iverson also calls
attention to the law in which 1t is di-
rected that a tax of 1 23-100 mills, to
be known as the state school tax"
shall be levied annually upon the tax
able property of the state. This is in
addition to the local 1-mill and spe-
cial taxes for school purposes.

RAILWAY FATALITIES.

Railroad accidents in this country
have been bad enough for years past.
hut during the past few months there
seems to have been something like an
epidemic of awful catastrophes. involv.
ing a fearful loss OF human life. II Is
probably the result Of the wonderful
pros Derity which the United States Is
now enjoying. resulting In the conges-
ton of traffic on the railroads This,
however. should be no excuse for such
a wholesale massacre.
Onicial statistics OF railroad acct
dents during three months of last
year read something like the report
Of bloody battle. A statement pre-
pared by the interstate commerce
commission shows that during the
three months ended September 80.
1902. there were 263 persons killed
and 1913 injured in train accidents
Other kinds of accidents. including
those sustained by employees while at
work and by passengers in getting on
and off cars. bring the total number
OF casualties up to 12.007, the killed
numbering Sf5 and the injured 11.162.
The total number of collisions and
derallments was 2,44S, of which 1.i44
were collisions and l,0li derailments
Of which so collisions and 90 derail
mentr affected passenger trains. The
damage to cars. engines and roadways
by these accidents amounted to ST..
