ADMINISTRATOR SUES
RAILWAY COMPANY
Ten Thousand Dollars Asked
for Mans Death
SANTA FE is DEFENDANT
Max Teter Was Killed Beneath
Freight Cars.
SANTA FE is DEFENDANT

A ]. Crow as administrator to the es-
tate of Max Teter, filed suit in the dis
trict court yesterday against the Santa
Fe Railway company for $4,000 damages.
The case arises from the death of Max
Teter. who was run over by Santa Fe
freight train in this city on August 20.
1906.
The petition states that during the
month of August. 1905, Max Teter was
emploved by the J. c. Miltner Elevator
company. situated on the Santa Fe tracks
between First and Second streets The
plaintiff states that it was the habit OF
the employees of the elevator company TO
assist the railway employees in stopping
the cars that were backed in FOR the
purpose of being filled with grain at the
elevator: that the same was done with
the knowledge and consent of the rail-
way company and was done as matter
of convenience in having the cars stop
ped in the right place and avoiding the
delay in waiting for the switch engine to
return when cars were pushed up
On the day in question. the petition
states. Max Teter climbed to the top of
q moving box car seventy-five feet north
of the elevator for the purpose OF set
ting the brakes According to the petit
ton, Teter was in the act Of setting the
brakes when a switch engine showed two
heavily loaded cars onto the track from
the north and as they were running at
q high rate of speed the force of the col
nsion threw Teter from the top Of the
car, and the three cars passed over his
body.
1t also states that the young man was
20 years old, of good habits and was
earning at the time OIL his death a salary
of $40 per month. and that his mother.
Hannah Teter. died just five days after
the accident occurred.
The petition alleges carelessness on
the part of the railway company in that
they allowed the employees of the mill
to set the brakes on freight cars, and
negligence in their falling to give warning
when the cars were pushed back onto the
track. For this alleged careiessness and
negligence the heirs demand Judgment
for $4,000 and the costs of the action
Adams & Adams are the attorneys for
the plaintiff.
