Oregon Man Is
Killed BY Train
G. B. Whittemore Struck by a
Northern Pacific Freight and
Fatally Injured.

Seattle, Dec. 10.-C. B. Whittmore
guest of the Grand Central hotel,
died yesterday morning at 3 o'clock at
the county hospital at Georgetown, the
result Of injuries sustained by being
struck by a Northern Pacific freight
train near Van Aselt at A o'clock Mon
day afternoon. His body was brought
to the Bonney-Watson morgue, and dur
ing the afternoon telegram was
sent to his mother, Mrs. l.. F. Purkin-
son, Of Irving, Or.
Whittmore was 26 years of age, and
little is known of him here other than
he has been guest of the Grand Gen.
trail hotel on and off ever since August.
He had been working at odd jobs
about the city, but at the time Of his
death was unemployed.
Some time Monday morning he start
ed out TOT the purpose OF walking to
Tacoma. He remained a. short time at
Georgetown, ,and during the afternoon
started out again, following along the
Northern Pacific tracks. At bend
in the road the engineer noticed a
man on the track and blew the whistle.
The distance was too short to stop, and
apparently the man did not hear the
whistle. The engine struck him and
hurled him considerable distance
from the track. When he was picked
up by the crew he was conscious, but
soon lost his reason.
Assistance was summoned and Whit
temore was taken to the countyhospital
for treatment. 1t was found that his
skull was fractured and the scalp laid
bare for about six inches on the right
side. His right leg was broken below
the knee and two ribs were fractured.
