BRIDES MIRACULOUS ESCAPE
Walked Of Platform of Car Going
Thirty Niles an Hour

Kansas City, Kan, May Mayor
Craddock, who has returned from a trip
to McCracken, over the Missouri Pacific
system. tells of thrilling experience
which happened a newly married cou-
pie on the same train en- route for
Bushong, in which the young bride
nearly lost her life by falling from the
train. The accident happened several
miles this side of Bushong. where the
groOm's parents reside. The young Wo-
man, whose name the mayor cannot re-
member. walked off the platform while
into a chair car, while the train was
making 80 miles an hour.
Mayor Craddock said he had Just I'm
ished his dinner. and returned to the
smoker, when he heard the frantic cries
Of man, who declared that his wife
had been killed. As soon as the acct
dent became known, General Manager
Russell Harding, who was in the snok-
er at the time. ordered the train stop
ped. But the brakes did not work well,
and the train ran five miles before It
could be checked.
The train was backed to the point
where the woman fell, and crew,
which Mr.. Harding and the mayor join
ed, set out to find her. The sleet and
hail by this time was falling in thick
sheets, and the party, expecting to find
only the mangled body Of the woman
CROPPED its way cautiously, until a
scream was heard. The woman, who 1t
seems just at that moment regained
consciousness, rose to her feet crying
from pain. She was taken into Sleep
er and physician secured. A disloca-
ted shoulder, which the doctor soon re-
placed, and few slight bruises were
all the injuries she sustained When
the young husband and wife reached
their destination, she was able to walk
inside the station without assistance.

of reply to arguments presented by
railway attorneys al hearings before the

ment, comprising 100 pages of printed

comparisons Of rates in Wisconsin, Iowa

to be much higher on the same classes

Santa Fe Is to Build Another
Cut OF.
Building Of Long Talked of Line
Is Assured.
HAVANA TO CANEY.
TO Connect Chanute and Bart
leVille Branches.
New Line Will Affect Freight
Traffic From Texas.

A small part of the enormous amount
OF construction work which the Santa
Re viii have under way during the COM
ing summer is a cutoff between Havana
and Caney. Kansas. The rumor Of the
building of this line has been current
for some time but up until yesterday
nothing definite was given out by the
officials. H. U. Nudge. general manager
Of the Santa Fe, said yesterday that the
line would be built.
AT one time several reports concerning
Santa Fe construction in that vicinity
were circulated. each conflicting with
the other. One rumor was to the effect
that the Santa Fe would build an ex-
tension from OwassO to Fairfax. Owasso
Is the terminal OF the BarTleSVllle
branch which runs south into the IN
dian Territory from Caney, and an ex~
tension from this point TO Fairfax
would mean that the line from Texas to
Kansas City would be about eighty
miles shorter than the one now in use
around through Winfield. Another re-
port favored the line from Havana to
Caney and ii now seems that this one
was nearer right than any of the others.
The Santa Fe has always before been
compelled to use the Missouri Pacific
tracks in order to connect with the
Bartlesville branch at c. icy, running
over the main line a. rnlt road from
and it was probably this fact that
caused the officials to finally decide
upon the cutoff from Havana to Caney.
When asked about the proposed cut
off and the effect it would have upon
shipments from Texas Mr. Nudge said:
1T is true that we are to build a cut
off from Havana to Caney. Heretofore
we have been using the Missouri Pa
ciflc tracks between these two points
but we are to give up our lease of these
tracks as soon as the new cutoff is
completed 1t viii shorten the line only
e bout six miles but it win give us a
through line to the Indian Territory
which viii be a great advantage. Just
what effect the cutoff viii have upon
the handling Of freight from Texas 1
am not prepared to say. Nothing is
now being contemplated but eventually
the Bartlesville branch viii be extended
farther south. When this is done a
great deal of freight shipped from
Texas to Kansas City win probably be
handled over that branch Of the road
Our Galveston line now gets most of
the Texas business and it is brought
north by way of Winfield and IS taken
into Kansas City over the Emporia
cutoff The work on the new cutoff
will begin just as soon as the right of
way can be secured This viii probably
be in a bout thirty days.
