TALKING PHONE MERGER
BUT MINNEAPOLIS INTERESTS

THE PROPOSED AMALGANdA-

Details OF, another telephone 'combina-
ton projected intthe east have not yet
reached Minneapo1is. go Ell. Moulton,
president Of the Twin City Telephone
company, doubts the authenticity of the
report. The Pittsburg Press last even
ing printed the story that the local in
terests of that city had been combined
with those Of other large cities. The big
deal was reported as being handled
from New York by the American Tele-
phone e. Telegraph company, which is
expected to announce details at it's an
nual meeting, in Boston next month.
The combine spoken Of takes in the
forty three large telephone companies
in as many cities of the United States
and Canada and has combined capt.
tai of $25,O00,000, and one of. the first
things to be accomplished is trunk line
from New York to San Francisco.
From Chicago comes the information
Telephone company and the Western
from Pittsburg. Altho President
Wheeler of the Chicago Telephone COM
pany denied strenuously that the re-
port was true, he admitted the presence
of President Fish of the American Tele-
phone & Telegraph company in Chicago
and admitted that Independent tele-
phone companies in Pennsylvania and
New York were becoming allied with
the Bell Telephone company.
1t is stated in Minneapolis that the
Bell company has ceased buying con
trolling companies. The procedure was
followed until it was discovered that it
awaited nothing against Independent
lines, as they sprang up again.

WOODEN Leg ACTS
AS A LIFESAYER.
NEW YORK ENGINEER HAS AN
UNUSUAL EXPERIENCE.
Comes to Minneapolis to Have His Legs
Put in Shape Twice Caught in Col
lisions-Now Says that He's Getting
Tired Of Buying Legs for Engines to
Smash Up.

P. NJ. Bratton of East Salamanca,
N. Y, owes his life to a wooden leg.
He is in Minneapolis at present having
his legs trued up and adjusted and will
return tonight to his eastern home, with
one new leg and two old ones.
Bratton seems to bear charmed life.
Five years ago, while acting as an
engineer on an eastern road, Bratton
was mixed up in a collision and lost
it in the wreck, but it was such a use
less piece Of furniture after they pried
the tender off of it, that the doctors
seemed to want it for a specimen. They
took it. I was dreaming about running
sevtny-two miles an hour and nothing
but white lights ahead, so I didn't mind
it, " explains Bratton. ..
After this accident Bratton HE'D him
to Minneapolis and had a new leg made
company. He then went back to the
Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg railroad
and was soon turning her over some''
thru the hills and cuts of southern New
York and northern Pennsylvania. One
month ago last night Bratton's train,
thru confusion of orders, met a coal
train.
"Same old experiment, says Brat
ton. Trying to pass two trains going
IN different dlfecClOnS on one stretch OF
track. Can't be done. First thing !
knew we were plump into each other
running twenty. miles an hour. Both
trains were doubleheaders. Ny fire.
man, fine fellow, and brakeman were
killed. The next thing I knew I was
under one Of the engines and thought
someone was pouring ice-cold water
over me. It was scalding water, bu,
then it felt like cold water. First
thing I remember was trying to craw
out and found my leg caught. Their
osme of the boys got hold of me an6
pulled my leg off. 1t was, luckily, the
artificial one and the straps broke just
right. I was taken to farmhouse anc
my burns attended to and I was out il
short time. They saved the old les
out of the wreck and L brought that ou1
here and had it fixed up. I think lot
of it. It saved my life. Had it beer
'other leg I would have been scaldeC
to death. All four engines were candi
dates for the junk heap. While I was
here thought I'd have a new leg made
and have an extra one handy should
my engine cut any more capers. ] don =
mind buying wooden legs for tina
stump, but if the engines get after my
real leg, I'll quite the business and e
to farming.'' "a, 4
That is how Bratton comes to be
three-legged man..

HIS WIPES LETTER
WAS DATED TOO LATE,

On timber claim in Wisconsin, the
family of Elmer Hatcher, arrested yes
terday for stealing Salvation Army
collection box and soliciting money for
his own benefit, will suffer from pow
erty for a month. Hatcher was given
a thirty-day sentence in the work
house without the option of fine by
Judge Waite this morning.
When Hatcher's case was called, E.
F. Thompson, his attorney, explained
that Hatcher's family was really in
need. He was working as nj ght
Waterman at $50 month, but needed
more, and stole the box.
Hatcher's story sounded good until
a letter from Hatcher's wife which
told of sufferings in pathetic terms
was put in evidence, but it bore date
mark Of Jan. 25, two days later than
the theft of the box.
In passing sentence, Judge Waite
said that he could not see any extenu-
ating circumstances
