just above the knee. His arm was
also broken. the bones badly crushed
and the flesh torn and bleeding, and
it was thought by the doctors that it
would have to be taken off this morn
ing. but this afternoon they had de-
cided to try and save it.
Engineer Tom Greene, was at the
throttle, and gives the following re-
port of the accident: Freight train

ahead and the cars parted. leaving
ten cars behind and carrying seven
teen cars forward. The engine was

I back and thinking that the switch
had been changed he backed. and
when he did so the cars went together
with a crash and he found to his as

Mr.. Lewis was at the rear end oil
the cars that We're struck and heard
them come together and tried TO get
| out of the way but the car struck
| him and knocked him across the rail
and he was run over.
Mr.. Lewis is fifty years Of age. with
a powerful constitution and wonderful
nerve. He sat OH the ground near
| where he was run over and converseC
with the people around him. never
| murmured, wept or Sroaned. and was
almost as cool and composeS as il
nothing unusual had happened. His
wife and little daughter approached
him weeping. and his wife threw hel
arms lovingly about his neck and
placed a kiss upon his brow, but he
showed no, emotion and babe her re-
turn homel and fix his bed. saying he
would be home i'm few minutes.
The officials of the road, who were
promptly on hand and did all in then

He proceeded to say that if tho
government wants to watch q revo-
lutionary neighbour of small proper

are used for that purpose; such also
is the case when we want to take
possession of the revenues of a sis

Mr.. German remarked that we are
well embarked on the policy of tak-
ing possession of weak neighbors as
rapidly as public sentiment will per-
nit us. He said the United states
had gone beyond England in becon,-
ing guardians of small neighbors and
in collecting their revenues. He was
prepared, he said. to believe that il
this policy is to be pursued, the pres
