crimes that have been committed
there in Iowa's history.
The locality where the battle took
place is a wooded region along the
river bank and skirting the Skunk
river. 1t is inhabited by wood chop

trial. The evidence of the state
showed numerous loans from the

measure had entirely omitted to pro-
vide punishment for the offense.
County Attorney Hannah was forced
to admit that such was the case and

The indictments against Arnold

rowed about $4,000 from the bank

ably fall through for the same cause,

Rowling upon the track, where they

crowding upon the track, where they
were not wanted
At a late hour this afternoon the
Omaha track at the Rock street crossing
seemed on the eve of being completed
and ready for service. The Northwest
ern track was used last night and today
for both the Omaha and the Northwest
ern trains. Omaha trains running be-
tween Mankato and st. Paul yesterday
used the Milwaukee track up to the
time of the relaying of the Northwest
ern track at the crossing.
This afternoon the work of the big
wrecking car was entirely done. The
huge crane, capable of lifting $4,000
pounds, had set the big engine back on
the track, in readiness to be taken to
the railroad shops for repairs.
A large amount of wear could be seen
on the outer rail at the curve where the
engine went off, by comparing the end
of the old rail with the new one laid
next to it to replace one that was
broken. AS the ends of the old and
the new rails met, one could not help
observing the great amount of wear and
tear on the old rail.
One incident was overlooked in the
excitement at the time of the catastro-
phe. A young negro who had been sleep
ing in an empty car of the train and
had gotten a severe Jolt when the train
was brought to a sudden halt, jumped
out of the car, and said to section
hand near by, "Say boss, yo don't ketch
me ridin' on box cas- no mo-"
As the wrecked engine tore up The
Northwestern track, one of the ties
was thrust violently into the brick wall
of the Mayer foundry, displacing and
breaking number of bricks.
Yesterday afternoon Engineer Cor
man of the wrecking car climbed up to
the top of the crane to lift up the cleo
trio light wires and let the crane pass
under. The train moved too far for him
to retain his position on the crane and
for time he hung suspended in mid
air from the wires, which were fortu-
nately well insulated. Then he swung
himself upon the roof of the cab. The
crowd applauded loudly.
The remains of Engineer Morgan were
shipped to st. Paul today on the train
leaving the union depot at one O'Clock.
