Robbed the Grave

Troy: Last Monday in attempting to
cross the Northern Pacific tracks near
the depot, Mrs. Carrie Morrow was
struck on the shoulder by car. but
luckily no injuries resulted. The local,
which was doing some switching, had
left a couple of cars standing on the
crossing and while Mrs. Morrow was
making her way around the car the
engine showed in several cars on the
same track which struck the ones
standing on the crossing with consid-
cradle force. She had paid no atten-
ton to the approaching cars. and had
she been a second later in crossing the
track she would no doubt have received
injuries Of serious nature.

oNF OF THE MOST SEVERE IN
 YEARS.
Great Damage Done in the Suburbs and the Northern Parts of the City Proper-Hammond,
 Ind, Suffers.

Chicago. March 24-One of the most se- were storms this city has known in many years passed over Chicago tonight. Great damage was done in the suburbs to the south of the city, and considerable loss was sustained north of the city proper.
 The storm did not strike the business portion of the city in its greatest force, The town of Indiana Harbor. twenty miles southeast of Chicago on the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad was the heaviest sufferer. One man. L. Barker. the proprietor of dry goods store, was killed and fifteen persons who were In his store when the storm struck. were in- jured. some of them seriously, although none are expected to die. Barker's store was entirely demolished Eighteen resi- dences were blown down and several per sons were hurt in the ruins of their homes. It is almost impossible to obtain full detail tonight because of the condition of the telegraph and telephone wires. The number sof people injured at Indiana Harbor will probably approxl- mate twenty-five.
 The storm created havoc in the town of Hammond. Ind. A number of residences were badly damaged and two persons were injured. but not fatally. One end of the large plant of the Republic Iron and Steel Company was blown down. causing a loss of $25. 900. A number of business houses were unroofed and the city to- night is in total darkness. At Grand Cros- sing. eight miles south of the center of the city, q number of buildings were wrecked. freight cars blown about the yards and the tracks of the railroads cov- cred with debris to such an extent that the majority of incoming trains were com pelled to call upon their passengers to assist in removing the wreckaRe from the tracks. so that the trains could pro- ceed.
 The telegraph and telephone companies suffered greatly south of the city. Up to midnight not a wire was working east of Indiana HarbOr on any of the three rail- roads running through the place.
 To the north of the city the storm was also severe, much damage having been done in the suburbs of Evanston, Rogers Park and Thornton. It was re- ported late at night mat there had been loss Of life in Thornton, but 1t was i'm pissible to verify the report because of lack of communication.

H. Kingsbury.
 He expected to get A:mless for s1.So0 but gave up the idea when 5000 was asked. It was just a day or two after this that he had read of Farley's being ruled of the track for ringing Aimiess at Detroit. This, he said, he looked upon as c joke in view of the fact that he had seen Aimless at Newport the day that Sarah Black won her race at Detroit

JUDGE LEsLIE's DECISION
Prisoner Carried to the Henry
 County BaStile.
Believed That He Will Take No Further Steps to Gain Freedom Until Grand Jury Has
 Acted on Case.

Dothan. March 2.-(special.)--At 6 trial charged with having committed . criminal assault upon Miss Snyder, his sister-in-law, was denied bail by Judge Leslie and was taken to Abbeville. Henry County. where he was placed in jail.
 The crime for which Milliken was ar raigned is alleged to have been commit ted some two weeks ago. He was out driving with Miss Snyder and when she returned, accusation was made against the defendant. who is postmaster at Do- than and prominent in the ranks of the Republican party of this section. having recently been elected district delegate to the Chicago Convention.
 Milliken was placed under guard. but made his escape in some manner. He feeling aroused in Dothan over the al- legged assault, was taken to the Henry County jail for safe-keeping.
 Notable Array of Counsel.
 He was brought here Tuesday for a preliminary hearing, and the trial con- sumed two days. He employed notable legal talent to defend him, and the State also had a strong array of counsel. Yes- terday Milllken took the stand in his own having engaged in a struggle with the chief prosecuting witness
 After listening to the argument of the attorneys, 1t was the decision Of Judge Leslie that Milliken should remain in jail without bail until the next session of the grand jury. The trial was con- ducted behind closed doors. and the Do- than military company was on duty, as some fear was expressed that s mob might attempt to take the law in ika own hands.
 It is believed here that Milllken Will make no further attempt to gain his free dom until the grand jury has had e chance to consider tie case.
