DEFEATED IN WYOMING.
Billings Boys Went to Sheridan With
Badly Crippled Team.

rom Mondays Daily.
The Billings baesball team returned
at o'clock this morning from Sheri-
dan, where they were defeated yester-
day by the wyoming champions.
The result of the game was no sur
prise to the boys who played, for Bill
ings, or anyone else conversant with
the circumstances under which the
team was trying to play yesterday.
Sickler, the first baseman, was unable
to go on account of an injured ankle
received in the Fort Harrison games;
Quigley, center fielder, was out of
town and did not go on the trip; Cap
tain Watkins was unable to get away
and Babcock could not go. AS re-
suit only four of the men in the game
were playing their regular positions,
and in this badly crippled condition it
| is not surprising that the fast Sheri-
dan aggregation won out by the wide
margin of eight runs, the score being
10 to two.
There is no gainsaying the fact that
Sheridan has a most excellent team,
and the Billings boys say they have
no apologies to offer for yesterdays S
defeat, as they were simply outclass-
ed, particularly at the bat Egan's
work at short was gilt-edged, as usual,
and he batted 1000 per cent getting
three walks and two-hagger out of
four times up. Mcqueen at third
made a sensational one'handed spear
of high-liner, which was one OF the
features of the game. King pitched
good ball considering the bunch OF
The Billings gazette. [volume] (Billings, Mont.) 1896-1919, 1905-09-12

heavy sluggers who faced him, and
though some good hits were made off
him, costly errors in the field were re-
sponsible for many of the runs which
Sheridan scored. Carroll in center
field was considerably bruised up by
colliding with the fence while running
for long fly in the early part of tie
game, and later on made two splen-
did running catches. Mullins, who
pitched for Sheridan, was very wild
at times and walked eight men to
first, but Billings was unable to con
meet with his benders when hits were
needed. A tremendous crowd wit
messed the game and the Sheridan
band turned out for the occasion.
The boys were rendered an inform
al reception at the club rooms of the
Sheridan Elks last night and were
treated royalty during their stay in
town. 1t is possible that a return
game will be played here September

FILLED WITH PASSENGERS
Ten People Killed and Several of the
Wounded Are Not Expected
to Live.
[Scripps News Service.l

New York, Sept. 11.-For the first
time since the system has been in op-
Grafton in the city an accident occurr-
ed this morning which has been Of
ten predicted. A car of an elevated
train plunged into the street below.
The accident occurred at Ninth ave-
nue. and Fifty-third street
The car was packed with workers,
en- route downtown. The two first
cars rounded the curve The third,
owing to an improperly set witch,
broke from the train and left the
track and trestle. In it's descent it
wrecked a drug store. The fourth
and fifth cars did not leave the rails.
Ten persons were killed, four of
whom died in hospitals shortly after
the accident. Other deaths are ex-
pected, as some of the injured will
probably not survive.
The floor OF the wrecked car was
torn out and the heavy trucks tobog-
gained down over the passengers, who
has been hurled out and strewn along
the inclined plane made by parts of
the car and from the structure to the
street, killing some and injuring
nearly all in their path
G. A. Jackson, a sWitcbman, has
been arrested. He is accused of hay
Ing turned The switch after the first
car had passed. It is alleged that he
mistook the Ninth avenue train for
another and turned the switch to turn
it into another street. After the first
car had passed, it is charged, he real
lied his mistake and saw the train
was going in the wrong direction and
then threw the switch back, causing
the derailment.

BALL PLAYER DIES.
Fort Harrison Pitcher Falls On the
Fied-Died Immediately.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
Jesse Franklin, one OF the pitchers
for the Fort Harrison ball club, that
visited this city week ago, fell in a
faint while in the box yesterday, at
Central park, Helena, and was carried
from the field. He died Is minutes
later.
At the time the despatch was re-
ceived from Helena announcing the
death of the young soldier the exact
cause was unknown, but it is suppos-
ed that death was caused by overexer
tion. Prior to the inning in which the
tragic event took place Franklin had
been hit by a pitched ball, but it is
not believed that he was seriously in
jured. The bases we're full at the
time and not seeing the conditions he
ran the full circuit before he was in
| formed. The following inning he went
! into the box and had struck one man
out. He then walked about Is feet
| from the box and apparently threw
himself on his face. His companions
did not think he had tainted and it
was a minute or two before anyone
went to him. He was carried from
the baseball field to his quarters in
the post, where he died within Is
minutes.

sary colors to complete the glories oi
the scene. The TRAIL follows the di
vide to Bear Tooth lake, by far the
prettiest spot directly along the route.
This magnificent body of water teem-
ing with trout of exceptional size, is
fanked with precipitous wooded
slopes and on one side rises majestic
Beartooth, a dazzling white peak with
a blaze of red through it's middle por-
tion. There is more big game in this
section than in any place ON the route.
From Beartooth the trail leads over a
beautiful country until it strikes
Clarke Fork canyon at the mouth OF
Lake creek. This canyon is another
wonderful section. The trail strikes
the road near the base of Pilot, a peak
towering about $4,000 feet in the air.
THE return "trip was made over
what is known as the Sheridan trail,
a historic route bIazed by General
Sheridan many years ago while in pur-
suit of the hostile Nez lPerces. This
grade is easier, but the route is much
longer.
1t is THE intention of the Red Lodge
Board of Trade to use the data and
photographs for the purpose of urg-
ing the government to construct the
road which leads through the forest
reserve. The matter will be presented
to the proper authorities through the
medium OF the Montana Business
Mems League.
1t has been estimated by one engi-
neer who made the survey several
years ago that the road can be con
structed at a cost of about $4,000,
but on account of the bad weather
prevailing at the time, the work was
not completed. At meeting of the
county commissioners of Carbon coun-
ty, held on the evening of the return
of the party it was decided after re
celVlng a VefDal report UhaC a Fe-SuF-
vey should be made. An engineering
party will be sent out from Red Lodge
next week and new line run and
estimates of cost made. When com
plete these win form the basis of the
report to the government. 1t is the
opinion of every one who made the
trip that the road can be constructed
at a moderate cost; that it's scenic
attractions are far greater than the
wagon road from Gardiner, and that
it will be a popular highway as it will
offer tourists from eastern Montana
an opportunity to so into the park

MAYOR RECEIVES LETTER
Brother of Man Killed by Officers
Writes for Full and Complete
Information.
From Mondays Daily.

The name of the man who was shot
by the police here ait the time of the
opera house tragedy was Richard P.
Robinson. Robinson was killed after
he had shot three inoffensive citizens
through the legs.
Last Saturday Mayor Fred. H. Fos-
ter received letter from brother of
the dead man who resides in Bona
parte, Iowa. He said;
'Will you please give me the par
ticulars as far as you cam convenient
1Y, in regard to the death of my broth
ef, Richard P. Robinson, of your city.
had a telegram few days ago an
nouncing the fact, but up to the pres
ent time l have had nothing that
would give ME the exact particulars in
regard to it. have written to people
int your city, but have no reply yet.
Amy information you can give me will
be highly appreciated.
"Yours truly,
'E. ROBINsON."
Mayor Foster took the pains to sit
down and write a letter to the brother
CT the dead man giving him full par
ticgig s of the tragedy. He also in
4amed him that he was not advised
as to whether his brother left any
property here or not.
Doctor Rinehart was asked by The
Gazette concerning this matter today,
just before he started to Denver. He
said, CAN the property found was $40
in cash and a gun. The commission
ers gave me an order to use the money
to procure a decent burial for Robin
son and the gun was turned over to
the county clerk.
In regard to the matter of not
holding an inquest l will say that
was fully satisfied as to the cause OF
Robinson's death. He was shot by a
44-calibre pistol ball There can be
no mistake about that, and that is the
size of the revolvers carried by the
officers who were shooting at him.
There was no mystery to be cleared
up in the matter, and as the manner
of his death was clear in my mind
did not believe that an inquest was
necessary. The body was prepared
for burial in such manner that if any
of his relatives desire to have it re
moved it can be DONE"
