Just How the Accident Occurred
Is Not Known.
Sad Affair Happened at Kasota
Yesterday Morning.
Young Man Has Brother Living
in This City.
From Tuesdays Daily.


Bright and happy, Max Saenger, nine
teen years old, went to his work on the
Milwaukee tracks yesterday morning
from the home of his mother, Mrs.
Mary Saenger, at KasOta. At 1920
O'Clock Mrs. Saenger was called up over
the telephone by the Milwaukee sta
tion agent and told that her son had
been killed by train. Not long after
wards, the mangled remains were
brought to the family home in the
charge of Undertaken Volk of st. Peter.
No one knows just how the terrible
accident happened. Mr.. Saenger had
been employed as section hand on the
road, new position which he had lately
accepted. At l2:l5 o'clock, he and his
foreman happened to the walking south
ward on the spur track of the Milwau-
kee running near the freight depot.
Suddenly the foreman remarked, "Look
out there, Max, there comes freight
Let her come," said Max. The fore
man walked Il few steps farther and
then stepped off the track and looked
around to see if Max did the same. See
ing man under the tender, the foreman
exclaimed, For Gods sake, Max; there
is brake under that train" a mo-
ment later the foreman saw that the
victim was Max himself. The foreman
was so horrorstruck that his energies
were paralyzed and he was powerless to
give the signal Tor the engine to stop.
The tender, engine and four cars pass
ed over the PROSTATE body.
Death must have occurred instantly.
The head showed evidence of being
struck some violent blows. A watch
in the vest pocket near the heart was
smashed in, indicating that violent
blow must have been struck near the
heart. This alone would be sufficient to
cause death. The left foot was cut off
and the body otherwise torn and mu-
tilated
The young man certainly knew of the
approach of the freight train. He was
in full possession of his sight and hear
ing. His mind was clear and alert He
had ample time to step from the track
when the foreman first warned him that
the train was coming. He was perfectly
sober and was by no means drinking
man. Some think he may have slipped
on the new ties, made wet by the rain.
Some have the idea that he tried to
board the tender.
The father of the unfortunate man
died three years ago. Besides his moth
er, living at Kasota, he leaves three
brothers and two sisters: f. w. Saen-
ger of Mankato, agent of the Mutual
Life Insurance company; Joseph Saen-
ger, mail carrier at Kasota; William
Saenger, druggist at Window; Mrs.
August johnson of Amboy; and a
younger sister, Miss Sadie Saenger, liv-
ing at the parental home in Kasota.
Funeral arrangements have not yet
been definitely settled, but it is ex-
pected at present that the service will
be held from the st. Peter and Paul's
church tomorrow morning at 1890
o'clock. The interment will take place
at Calvary cemetery.
Peter Saenger, the Mankato livery
man is first cousin to the young man
who was killed at Kasota, the fathers
of the two having been brothers.

The Chinese, both merchants and
coolies, are leaving Port Arthur with
the permission Of the Russian authori-
ties. Fifty junks with Chinese passen-
gers have arrived at Chefu.
The reports of the latest arrivals
vary in minor details. but agree In a
general statement that battle had
been raging for four days within ten
miles Of Port Arthur. All the Russian
soldiers have, it Is said, left Port Ar
thur for the front, and only three large
ships and some small ones remain In
the harbor

Democrats Of Intermountain

NEED ONLY ANTI-ROOSEVELT PLANK
Question of PoIygamy Thrown Out
by Party headers, Fearing
s.ampus-NO Platform

Presented.
SALT LAKE CITY, June 10.--The
six delegates from Utah to the Demo
cratic national convention will go I'M
instructed. Four of the six, it is I'M
derstood, are against William r..
Hearst, with leaning toward Judge
Parker as first choice. Two delegates
probably will support Hearst.
For some time before the Democratic
state convention opened it seemed al
most certain that bitter factional fight
would be waged over the question of
instructions to the national delegates
with regard to the polygamy question.
One faction, led by Brigham H. Rob-
erts, were outspoken in their demands
that the delegates be instructed to
fight any antipolygamy plank in the
national platform. Another faction
strongly favored the adoption of a
plank in the state platform similar to
that adopted by the Idaho Democratic
convention, demanding that the federal
government take into its own hands
the suppression of polygamy.
1t was finally decided by the party

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-06-10

Japanese movements are interpreted
there as caused by anxiety to hamper
as much as possible whatever move
ment General Kuropatkin may be
fnaking to help Port Arthur. Not only
have the Japanese bombarded the west
coast of Liautong peninsula, where the
railway runs close to the shore max
ing feints of debarkation, but General
Kuroki has assumed the offensive east
ward. He has sent an overpoweringly
strong column that drove out the Rus
slams from fortified position at Sal
matte, twenty miles northwest of
Fengwangcheng, inficting loss of
100 men
Military critics profess to be not al
together certain whether General Ku-
rokfs movement means a real advance
or is simply feint to distract Rus
] sian attention from Port Arthur, but
they incline to the latter view.
General Kuropatkin has telegraphed
/, to the emperor as follows:
"a Japanese brigade has attacked
the Russian detachment occupying Sal
matte. The Russians retired slowly
because of the enemy's great superiori-
ty toward Fenchulin pass. Our losses
were two officers wounded and 100 sol
, diers killed or wounded"
1t is announced at ST. Petersburg that
! NO negotiations are taking place be-
tween Russia and Turkey concerning
the passage of the Black sea fleet
through the Dardanelles. The Turkish
government has affirmed positively it's
intention to maintain neutrality and to
observe strictly the obligations of the
Berlin treaty.
While diplomatic circles disbelieve In
the existence of danger in the Balkans,
yet it is not thought that Russia would
consider a reduction of the Black sea
feet at this time.
A Tientsin report says that 10000
Russian infantry, with several bat
teries of artillery, are intrenched in a
strong position at Pochichia, twelve
miles south of Kaichau and thirty five
miles from NeWchwang.
The Russians, apparently taking the
offensive, have reached Suihanng and
are advancing along the railway. They
are being heavily REINFORCED.
A Shanghai telegram AYERS that the
Japanese Third army, under General
Nogi, will assault Port Arthur, while
! the Second army, unSsr General Oku,
will cooperate with General Kuroki.
