HORRIBLE CASE
OF SUICIDE.
John Hanson Throws Himself in
Front Of Moving Locomo.
tive and Is Killed.
WAS ON VERGE OF COLLAPSE
From Drink When Rash Deed Was
Committed-Had Been In Ogden
Two Years--No Relatives.

ogden, Dec. 25.-With suicide In his
mind. John Hanson, laborer DELHI
erately threw himself in front of a
Union Pacific passenger train last
evening at the Ogden Union depot, and
IN few seconds was crushed to death.
Hanson had been drinking consider
ably during the past week or more and
was on the verge of delrum tremens.
lie was seen walking around the depot,
but his actions did not attract any
particular attention, as there were SO
many people around the station coming
and waiting for trains. AS the Union
Pacific passenger train No. was nea9-
ing the depot building. he was observed
by q number OF people to step out near
track No. l and stand as though he
was awaiting the arrival OF some
friends on the train. but to the horror
OF men and women, who were also
awaiting the Incoming train, just when
the heavy locomotive was within u
few feet Of him he threw his body over
the rails In front Of the engine, which
passed partially over him before il
could be stopped. The man was seen
by the engineer who was only moving
the train at a slow rate OF speed, but
before he could stop, the wheels had
passed over him. crushing both OF his
legs and otherwise terribly mangling
his body. He was taken from under
the engine by railroad employees, and
DR.. Joyce. the railroad physician, was
summoned, but the man was beyond
all medical aid and died In few
minutes.
Hanson was about thirty-flve years
Of age, and unmarried. He has lived
In Ogden about two years, has been
employed on the Ogden-Lucin cutoff
and other construction work. So
far as IL known he has no relatives
IN Utah or elsewhere and will no doubt
have to be buried as county pauper,
as he had no funds with which to pay
for a funeral. although when he came
to Ogden about two weeks ago from one
OF Corey Brothers work camps, he had
considerable money saved UP. but he
has spent 1t all around the saloons of
the city. where he put in most of his
time.
Hanson walked TO the Union depot
with officer Hutchlns only short time
before he ended his life and was adj
vised by the officer tn straighten UP
and go to work again. which he said he
would do.
There were fully 100 people standing
on the depot platform when Hanson
laid down on the track In front of the
approaching train. who witnessed him
turn his head towards the approaching
train. Several people rushed towards
him but were too late to save him.
A coroneTs Inquest will likely be held
