Lost A Leg.

E. Dunn, living near Green
creek, had his right leg amputated
last Friday. He was hauling grain
recently when he was thrown from
his wagon and the heavy load
passed over his right leg below the
knee horribly crushing both bones.
Every effort was made to save the
injured limb but without effect and
Friday the physicians decided to
remove it. DR.. Campbell, assisted
by DR.. Stockton, performed the
operation and the patient is now
doing nicely.

\. G. L.-SELMA CASE.
Matter OF Train From Rocky Mount
Argued Yesterday.

The case of the Corporation VS.. the
A. G. l.. Railroad, known as the Sell
ma connection case, was specially set
for argument in the Supreme Court
yesterday consuming the entire four
hour session of the court.
The attorneys engaged in the argu-
ment We're Attorney General Gilmer,
Hon. F. A. Woodland, Messrs. c. M.
Busbee and r. NJ. Argo, for the Cor
poratiOn Commission, and Messrs. jun
Jus Davis and J. III. Pou for the rail-
road
The questions involved in the case
are whether the act creating the COM
mission invested it with the power to
make an order requiring the defend
ant to put on a train for the accOmmo-
dation of passengers wishing to travel
via another road at a Connection point.
1t will be recalled that the Com
mission. which ordered the defendant
to run a train from Rocky Mount to
Selma, was enjoined by the railroad
which won the case in the lower court.
The attorneys for the road, while
denying in toto the authority of the
commission to order the train, lay
stress upon the fact that it could not
be run except at the loss.
The commission, in reply to this po-
sition sets up the great prosperity of
the road, which has recently declared
a dividend of rs per cent. and claims
that it has the power to order it to
provide reasonable conveniences.
The position of the road is, however,
that the law will not permit the COM
mission to require it to run an addi-
tonal train at a loss, however small
it may be, and however great may be
the profits of the road in other bust
ness

Durham. n. c., Dec. There was
a head-on collision on the Southern
road in East Durham at $3.50 O'Clock
tonight. Tom Trollinger, colored
fireman, was probably fatally injured,
and Jack Price, yard conductor, Is
suffering from scalded feet. Irollln-
ger has a badly broken knee, his right
leg is cut, he is scalded about the race
and probably hurt internally. II Is
thought that he will die.
The men have been moved to the
hospitals.
The collision was between through
freight No. 1873, west bound, and the
Oxford and GAINESVILLE passenger tram
which was being taken to the 10
turn around. 1t is said that the mead
light on the freight was not burning
and that the crew of the other tram
did not see the approaching freight
until too late to stop. The crew on
the other train saw Wthe light OF the
passenger and was slowing down at
the time.
The freight engine was large and
heavy and was not used up very bad
ly. The other engine was literally
torn TO pieces, and the wonder is that
any one lived through the wreck.

man. None of these was hurt, al
though it was said that not one
jumped.
To the passenger coaches were two
engines The front engine was run
ming with it's tender in front, and in
this was Tom Trollinger, the colored
fireman and Jack Price, yard conduc-
tor. The rear engine was in charge
of Engineer Green.
The force of the collision caused the
tender on the passenger engine to tele-
scope the cab and this pinned the two
men between the tender and the en-
CINE. The coIored man was mashed
and cut, while Price was in the escap-
ing steam They were quickly rescued
by the crew and others who ran up.
The freight train was badly dam
aged, although the engine was not
badly broken. The cars following the
tender were telescoped, the second
and third car being piled high in the
first car, which was a coal car. All
the way down the train there were
broken cars, the force of the collision
being such as to force the trucks from
some cars and under others.
A wrecking crew is now on the way
to Durham, and it thought that the
track can be cleared by some time
early tomorrow morning. 1t may be
o'clock before trains can pass through.
