Boy Says Brakeman Threw Him from
the Car-Matter to Be Investi-

ST. CLOUD, MIMI, PAPER

The death of Edward Branham,
son of the late Louis Branham, who
lived sonth Of Richmond, was noted
the first of the week, but the particu-
lars were meager at that time and
could not be given. The Daily Jour
nal-Press of st. Cloud, Mimi, dated
July 25, was received by Superin-
tendent Gormon. It gives full partic-
ulars Of the accident and subsequent
DEATH The following is the account: {:
edward Branham, a colored lad
aged about seventeen years, had his
leg crushed under a freight train Sat-
urday night at Becker on the North
ern Pacific railway, and received other
severe injuries. He was brought to
st. Raphael's hospital in this city at
midnight Saturday, and his leg was
amputated Sunday morning, but he
died from his injuries Sunday after
noon. He was buried today in Cal
| vary cemetery.
"With a partner, also colored, Bran
ham was stealing a ride on the rods
under a freight car, and it is alleged
that after the train was under motion
leaving Becker, a brakeman seized
! the boy and pulled him off the rods
onto the track, where he fell beneath
the wheels. Such is the story told
nv, 4bo la1'C nor+por who &c IN fbo
city today, and also by local parties
who were on the train and being eye
| witnesses at the depot. If the affair
| occurred as reported it was a piece
of atrocious brutality on the part of
the brakeman, and as it is being look
ed up by the authorities a charge of
manslaughter may follow if the facts
warrant. The boys own statement is
said to correspond with that of his
partner and eye-witnesses, to the
effect that he was pulled off the rods
while the train was in motion and fell
onto the track under the car, power
less to prevent himself from being
caught by the wheels.
"The lad home is near Richmond
Ind, where he has a mother in hum
! BILE circumstances,
"The matter will be thoroughly in
vestigated by the authorities, and such
action taken as the facts appear tc
warrant when officially ascertained. y
The case is most pitiable one and
it is hoped the killing Of the poor col
ored boy will be thoroughly investi-
gated. Young Branham had little te
encourage him and he was induced to
leave home and tramp through the
country. His father was Louis Bran
ham( now deacesed and his mother
still lives on the old place trying to
exc out an existence.

CAUSED DAMAGE
Fierce Storm Tore Up the Crops
Near Dayton.

Dayton, July 29-One of the worst
wind and rain storms that this part
of the country has experienced for
many years was felt last night. The
wind was very strong and the damage
that it did will amount up into a con-
siderable sum. The crops, especially
corn, were bent over, broken and
twisted around, and in places it look
ed as though scythe had passed over
the spot SO fiat had the fierce blasts
passed over the fields. Several limbs
of trees were blown down, but no one
was seriously injured. The rain also
was very bad and did great deal Of
damage. The worst part of the storm
was felt near Centerville, west of
here. r-. -
