CITY INSPECTOR
AFTER ENGINEERS

j. p. Berkman, city boiler inspec-
tor, yesterday swore to warrants
charging j. B. Scholl, J. b. Agner
and A. J. Fraser, stationary en-
gineers, with operating an engine and
heating apparatus without a license.
The three were arrested last evening
and allowed to go on their own recog-
nizance.
Agner is the engineer of the Ia
coma -theater building and Scholl has
similar position with the Pacific
Brewing & Mailing company. Other
engineers of the city who have COM
piled with the ordinance and appear
ed before the examining board regu-
larly to secure their licenses raised
big howl when they learned that
the rule was not being generally en-
forced, and the arrests followed.
The defendants appeared before
Municipal Judge Griffin this after
noon to plead to the charge against
them.

ATTEMPTED To
END HIS LIFE

A. Albertson, an aged laborer who
lives at Old Town, made an ineffectu-
al but persistent attempt to end his
own existence last night. The fact
that Albertson failed in his plan was
due to the interference of spectators
in view of whom the old man made
his desperate attempt.
The weapon usesd by Albertson
was an old jackknife. He plunged the
knife into his nick twice, but failed
to sever the jugular vein Not dis
couraged, however, he gave himself
one stab in the region of the heart,
but before he could do further dam
age he was restrained by onlookers.
The old man was attended by DR..
Sargentich, who say that the wounds
will not prove fatal unless blood
poisoning sets in. Albertson was
brought to the city jail, where he
will be cared for.
Albertson says he has been i'll for
years, and had given up all hope
of ever recovering his health when he
decided to end his life.

WHO OWNED THE WIRES

well attempted to reach the city mar
ket with a cargo Of salt 1t was found
that the vessels masts were too tall
to pass under the wires. Complaint
was made to the officials.
Captain Mountfort, harbormaster,
says: THE wires will certainly have
to be moved. If they cannot be put
high enough to clear the masts of big
vessels they will have to be under
water. Another vessel with masts
as tall as those of the Maxwell may
never want to get through there, but
it might happen again"
Captain Mountfort stated that
when the wires were put up It was
supposed that they were high enough
to clear any vessel that might be
brought up the stream. The Maka-
well incident, however, alters the sit
uation.

Half Tone Pictures of The
Disaster.

Indianapolis, October Charles
W. Zimmerman, who was a passenger
on the Purdue special that was wreck
ed here a year ago has sued the Big
Four for $4,000. charging that the
scenes he witnessed on the memorable
day have rendered him a nervous
wreck.
He charged that before the wreck
he was an ablebodied young man,
taking part in the athletics at school
and having a lively interest i'll his
education. His home is in Cumber-
land. Nd. and he says that he hoped
to return TO his home a competent
engineer. for he says his home is sur
rounded by rich mining territory
and for that reason he would have
prospered greatly at his calling.
But since the wreck. he charges. he
has had no nerve nor daring and
is weak and timid. He is afraid at
night Of imaginary impending dan
gers and can not dismiss from his
mind the terrible scene in which his

PANHANDLE TRAIN NO. 6, HAS
A NARROW ESCAPE.

Has Just Come to Light
Here.
NEWS BEING SUPPRESSED

There has just come to light das-
tardly attempt to wreck Panhandle
passenger train on the Richmond di-
vision, at Millgrove, in Blackford
county, few miles southeast of Hart
ford City on Saturday night. Logans-
port detectives of the Panhandle and
all other officers along the line are
investigating the case and strong
effort will be made to locate and cap
ture the perpetrators of the depreda-
ton.
The Story is that sometime Satur-
day night, some person, Or persons at
Millgrove rolled from the platform
of the station of that place directly
into the middle of the Panhandle
track, a barrel Of oil and a large bun
die of barbed wire.
The daily Sunday morning passen-
ger train No. 6, which arrives at
Richmond at 4:05 a. m. came steam
ing past, and struck the instructions
head on, knocking the bundle of wire
off the track and smashing the oil
barrel and scattering the fluid over
the surrounding territory as we'll as
plastering the front Of the engine.
Luckily. the engine kept the track and
the train passes without any damage.
There are various theories as to
tho i,,4asS,sx<k - .,r ..fiss<s I,o
obstructions on the track some believ-
ing that it was thoughtless boys who
did it, and others being of the opin-
ion that tramps who had been put off
a freight train, placed the stuff on
the track for revenge. Whatever the
motive, it was equally dangerous and
the perpetrators will be given the
limit of the law, if found.

train dispatcher, who is declared in
competent.
William Shumaker and Edward J.
Smith, who were in charge of the en-
gine of the special train, are made
defendants and it is charged that
they violated a city ordinance and
violated a rule of the company in
running the train as fast as they are
said to have run it. The complaint
says the train was running at the rate
of thirty miles an hour.
Harvey, Pickens. Cox & Kahn. at
torneys for Zimmerman, have pre-
sented a novelty in the complaint by
illustrating it. In it are half-tone
pictures of scenes at the wreck, show
ing how completely the front part of
the train was demolished and showing
the dead lying here and there on the
ground in the debris.
