LYNCH GIVEN BADGE.
Members of Police Force Make Him
a Christmas Present.

The members Of the city police force
yesterday afternoon presented Chief
Lynch with a solid gold police badge. The
presentation speech was made by Desk
Sergeant Charles Livingston. He thanked
the chief for the kindness which has been
so manifest toward ali the force and for
his good work in perfecting and organ
izing the department. Officers being but
human, Mr.. Livingston added they were
often apt TO make mistakes, and in their
desire to do all their duty sometimes to
Overstep the limits which are set for
them. During the last year ii has been
their desire to follow in the footsteps of
their leader and do only his commands.
After the presentation speech Mr.. Lynch
responded and thanked the men for their
kindness. He replied that il was but a
pleasure to hold public office when one
had men under him whom he could trust
and rely upon, and what had beed done
during the year was due no more to his
personal efforts than il was to their
ardent cooperation. During the coming
year he hoped that some of the i'm
provements which ne contemplated could
be brought about. Up to the present time
he felt that all had been done which
could be reasonably expected II any
body of men under the circumstances.

LOSS ABOUT $4,000.
Runaway Locomotive Crashes Into
Handling Crane.

JohnstoWn, Pa, Dec. ze--As result
of the wild trip of a locomotive Of the
Cambria Steel company and its coli
lision with an ore handling crane to-
day. both engine and the crane are al
most total wrecks and the property loss
Of about $4,000 caused. No one was
injured.
The locomotive was shifting cars in
The yards. Believing the engine was
about to collide with some cars the
crew jumped. but neglected to close the
throttle NJ the engine. The locomotive
missed the cars, and under a full head
of steam, dashed down the tracks to-
ward the ore dumps. When it reached
the trestle il jumped the rails and
plowed into the supporter of the huge
crane, which was brought to the
ground, the entire upper part of the
structure falling onto the locomotive.

short and undressing. The exchange
closed Friday night until Tuesday. Bus

done. Here and there the few dealings
showed a firm tone and complete conf
dence. Foreign bonds gave way slight

the list, however, showed a more cheer
full tone than during any of the Christ

Aloft Over an Hour.
From the time the airship arose from
the baseball grounds until il was safely
anchored at Pico and Stanford streets.

minutes. and in that time sailed a dis
tance of probably twenty miles. When
flying with the wind the Arrow trav-
eled at a speed Of twenty miles an

face of the strong southeastern gale
was able to make a rate of speed reck-
oned at between six and eight miles an
hour in either direction. sailing direct

SOLDIERS MAY
DIE OF WOUNDS
hackett and Riley in Serious
Condition at Post.
SELF-DEFENSE IS PLEADED
SMITH, THEIR ASSAILANT, IS IN
THE GUARD HOUSE.

The condition of Private Henry Hack
EFT of company G and Corporal Riley of
company II of the Twenty-ninth infan-
try, the victims of SiIas Smith, a team
ster, in shooting scrape which took
place on a street car early yesterday
morning at Fort Douglas is regarded
as serious. but there is a chance of both
recovering. An operation was per-
formed on Private Hackett and the bull
let was removed from his abdomen. He
was also shot in the back and the bullet
lodged under his left shoulder blade
His intestines were punctured and he is
in more serious condition than Cor
poral Riley. Riley's wound is i'm the
right side and the bullet came out near
the lower ribs.
Struggle in the Car.
The shooting scrape was the result
of drunken brawl between Hackett
and Smith, which started downtown
early in the evening. The men had met
several times during the evening. but
their companions refused to let them
fight. About twelve soldiers took the
last car on the Second South street
line. Hackett and Smith being among
the number. At the end of the line,
when the conductor pulled the trolley
of the Wire and the car was in dark
ness Hackett jumped at Smith and
throttled him. They were the only two
in the car at the time. Hackett threw
Smith TO the flco1 and commenced
beating him in the face with his fists.
The latter pulled his gun from his hip
pocket and shot Hackett through the
abdomen. Corporal Riley. who had
just left the car and was talking to
Conductor Robert Swendson, heard
the shot. He rushed into the car
as the conductor put the troll
ley on the wire. When Cor
poral Riley saw Smith with the gun
he grabbed hold of it. Smith jerked
the gun out Of his hand and pulled the
trigger. The bullet went through his
right side. All three men lay in a heap
on the floor.
Smith fired another shot. which
lodged under Hackett's shoulder. Be
fore he could fire again he was grabbed
by half dozen soldiers and taken out
of the car The street car was held by
the sentinel until Captain II. r. Perry
was summoned. DR.. A. VI. Smith was
called and the men taken to the hos
pital and attended.

pending the hearing still 1t has been
raised on this application and In order
tc avoid the appearance OF having
failed to render full justice to the re-
spondent 1t should have great weight
In inclining the court towards granting
a rehearing.
The second ground was the addition
al evidence offered by the contract for

inadvertance and inability 1t was not
produced tat the hearing. The contract
IL alleged to have been prepared byNone
of the counsel associated with the re-

The New Contract.
After quoting the contract Jutsice
Galbraith says: This contract, pos
8 ply, would not have established re-
lspondent's innocence Of the charge
against him II It had been produced
and given in evidence at the hearing.
But 1t does tend to disprove one Of
the charges found against him, namely,
that he did impede, hinder and delay

This contract certainly tends to
demonstrate one further fact, namely,
that the court has not done full and
