and the swift kick that the desperate
got in the stomach Immediately after
ward was so sudden that both of his
guns, that had been resting on his lap
while he Tun1inated further devi1try,
were Jared onto the floor Of the car.
The tenderfOOt, now fully as drunk as
Bradshaw from his big forced drink,
kept yanking and pulling on the rope
until the rufian was livid-
g Come on and give me a hand, you
fellows the tenderfoOt yelled to the
others in the car. I've got him roped
tight. He can't get at his guns. Pick
'em up, one of you, and we'll tie him
up
"They all hesitated for half a minute,
but when they saw how thoroughly the
lad with the glasses had the bad man
cinched they rushed aft and threw
themselves on Bradshaw, and in a jiffy
they had him triced up, with his arms
firmly bound. and the loose ends of the
rope neatly tied in many knots to the
seat. Then the tenderfOOt turned the
next seat over, deposited himself there
comfortably, right in front of the livid
ruffian, gave a preliminary 'aheml'
and then began making an address to
wrath as well as with the rope. You'd
never have thought a tenderfoot could
possess such a vocabulary as that
young man with the eyeglasses let out
on the bad man. He just went ahead,
easy like. and called Bradshaw all the
things that mean sudden death and
burial down in the country through
which the train was passing, and all
hands IN the car cheered him to the
echo and encouraged him to keep on
He took a glass Of water to relieve his
hoarseness, and then he began all over
again on Bradshaw. The bad man
foamed at the mouth, but he had to
stand for it. The tenderfOot was still
cussing Bradshaw out and back to the
forty seventh generation when the
train reached Santa Fe- Then the ten
derfoot lifted the ice cooler up in his
arms, removed the cover, and deliber-
ately poured the contents, ice and all,
on TOP of Bradshaw head, just to keep
the bad man from feeling excited when
somebody turned him loose, the tender
foot said. All hands in the smoker, in
Guiding the youth with the glasses,
were wise enough to leave the car at
Santa Re. Three brakemen and the
conductor turned Bradshaw loose after
carefully concealing his guns, and the
instant he was released he began to
make war medicine. swearing vengeance
upon every man who had been IN the
car when he was triced up But the
word was out that Jack was minus his
guns. and he was cOrralled and placed
in the Santa F'e calabOOse by the police.
He killed three Mexicans in a row over
a woman in Chihuahua q couple Of
years later, and was found dead in the
jail with stab wounds a-plenty on the
morning after he was locked up by a
troop of Mexican cavalry. That was

Want Pardon FIR Daniels

Judge Frank I. Osborne and Mr.. T. c..
Guthrie, of Charlotte, have been here the
former yesterday and the latter the day
before, to see Governor Aycock and urge
pardon for Walter Daniels, convicted of
gambling under the Ben Aycock law, and
sentenced to six months on the roads.
A reporter of the News and Observer
asked the Governor yesterday evening if
be had decided whether or not he would
pardon the man. He said he had not: that
he had not yet heard sufficiently the facts
on both sides of the case.
1t was last April that Daniels was ar
rested, with several others, in q gambling
den run by man named Horah, during
the raids conducted by Mayor Brown and
Recorder Shannonhouse, of Charlotte. The
mayor had been pledged the people of
Charlotte, that, if elected, he would sup
press gambling, and he was elected upon
that opcn platform. Every Monday, under
the Aycock law, he would swear the DO.
hcemen and ask them if they had any
knowledge of gambling going on any
where. Suspicion was aroused about GER
tain house, and the Recorder, under i'm
struction from the mayor and under the
law, had certain men brought before him
80 testify as to whether gambling was go
Ing on or rot. Their evidence implicated
Walter Daniels and W. Fl. Horah. and
they were convicted in court in about six
cases. Daniels got six months on the
roads and Horah one year.
Daniels appealed and the case is pend
ing IN the Supreme Court 1t seems that
those who turned State evidence we're let
off free but Daniels would not testify
against anyone else.
Daniels was a young painter in Char.
lotte who joined one of tho North Carolina
regiments and went TO the Spanish Ameri.
can war. When be returned he seemed TO
have acquired bad habits, and became
more aud more reckless in his ways of life.
until this climax was reached Since no
was convicted he has married and obtained
position with railroad contracting
force in Georgia. a letter to the Governor
from his employees says he is doing excel
lent work. His wife has written the Gov
ernor very pathetic appeal. One OF the.
grounds upon which executive clemency is
asked is that ths penalty was too severe;
that others caught gambling at the same
time were only fined $50 or SIS.

Peoria, Ills, Nov. 19.-Thirty-one men
were killed and at least fifteen injured
in a head-end collision between a freight
train and a work train on the Big Foar
this afternoon. Bodies of twenty-six of
the victims have been taken from the
wreck, which is piled thirty feet high
on the tracks. Five bodies yet remain
buried under the huge pile of broken
timber, twisted and distorted iron and
steel.
On bank at the side OF the track lie
the bodies of the victims, cut bruised
and mangled in horrible manner So
far twelve only have been identified, the
remaining being unrecognizable, even by
those who knew them and are aware OF
the fact that they are among the dead.
The victims are residents of neighboring
towns.
All the dead and most of the injured
we're members of the work train, the
crews on both engines jumping in time
to save their lives The collision occurred
in a deep cut at the beginning OF q
sharp curve, neither train being visit }c
to the crew of the other until they were
within fifty feet of each other. The en-
gineels set the brakes. sounded the wh.s-
ties and then Ieaped from their cabs,
the two trains striking with such iorce
! that the sound was heard for miles. A
second after the oI.ision the boiler of the
work train engine exploded, throwing
heavy iron bars and splInters OF wood
| 200 feet.
! Conductor John W. Judge, OF Indian
apois, who had charge of the
train received orders at Urbana to wait
at Mackin&w for the work train which
was due there at 2:40 p. m. Instead OF
doing this he failed to stop. The englr-
ee1 of the work train, George Be
had also received orders to pass the
freight at Mackinaw and was Oh tnc W..
to that station. The work train was per
haps five minutes late and was running
at full speed.
One of the last bodies recovered was
that of William Bailey. of MaclSinaw, who
had been lifted thirty feet into the air and
held in place by two steel ralls which
had been pushed up between the engine
and the tender OF the work train.
The dead will lie on the bank all night,
or until the arrival Of the coroner of Taz-
we'll county in the morning. Ott OF thir-
ty-fve men who Constituted the crew
of the work train, only four are !iv
ing and two of these are seriously IL
| jured.
