Nine Of the Immigrants Burned at
WoodyiIIe, Ind, Were Tick
eted to kenosha
WERE BURIED IN TRENCHES
Fellow Countrymen of the Dead in Ke-
nosha May Never Know the Story
of Their Death-Identity Inn
Possible to Learn

Nine men who had come from
Austria to become citizens of Keno
sha are now sleeping in graves in un-
hallowed ground near the little viii
lage of oodville, Ind, and it is
probable that the identity of some of
them will never be known. Until
yesterday the Anstrians in Kenosha
had hoped against hope that none of
their friends had been caught as
victims oft terrible railway disaster
on the Baltimore and Ohio road, but
an official statement issued last night
by the B. & O. Railway company
shows that nine of the men who met
death had been ticketed to Kenosha.
The final report of the officials of the
company on the disaster shows that
lfty-nine people were killed and only
a few of them were identified. All of
the unknown dead had arrived from
European countries during the last
week and they had started from New
York on the i'll fated train and it was
impossible to give any further means
of Identification save the fact that
among the tickets held by the con-
ductor of the train nine read to Keno
sha, Wisconsin.
Not one of the men who escaped in
jury from the wreck was coming to
Kenosha so it is shown that the en-
tire Kenosha party persisted and most
of them were burned beyond recogni-
ton in the flames that followed the
wreck. It seems that the members of
the Kenosha party were riding in
one of the first Of the immigrant cars
and as the cars we're locked they were
burned to death like rats IN trap.
The remains OF the men we're taken
and placed in trenches on the side of
the railway. but in response to the
demands of the Austrians of Chicago,
the ground in which the victims
are sleeping their last sleep will be
consecrated by Catholic pre1ate
and in this way they will at least be
allowed the privilege of sleeping in
hallowed ground
It is probable that the names of the
men VINO had started Tor kenOSha Will
never be known, as no record was
kept Of them by either the railway or
steamship officials.
The announcement that nine men
were ticketed to Kenosha has caused a
profound sensation among the Austri-
ans in Kenosha and they are con-
WINGED that some Of the men buried in
the trenches were friends and re1a-
tives who have long been expected in
Kenosha. These people are unab bic to
give out any information save. the
fact that there we're friends expected,
and they are still hoping against hope
that the men did not start west on the
ill fated train, and that they will yet
reach Kenosha in safety.
Some Of the people who had ex-
pected friends went to Chicago today
to make an effort to find something
that will remove the uncertainty.
The graves Of the men buried in the
trenches have been marked SO that it
lis possible that they may be Identified
later.

WORK HARD TO STEAL
Unknown Men Steal Iron Bed and Lum
Der From Simmons Com pany

Der From Simmons Com pany
A unique system of robbery has
been discovered at the Simmons fac
tory by special officer Sinnett. He
has discovered that men with boats
have been stealing lumber from the
docks and they have even gone so far
as to carry off iron beds. A few
nights ago Sinnett saw a suspicious
boat in the harbor near the Simmons
dock, and looking out over the harbor
he discovered that the men had tied
an iron bed to rope and sunk it in
the waters Of the harbot. The men
came along with the boat and cut the
rope and carried the bed away. The
same plan was being used to secure
lumber from the docks. It is thought
that the gang will be arrested

County Notes


In the coming campaign In our
County we think the Republicans
would do well to nominate Mr.. w.
F. Hines, Of Turkey, for County
Commissioner. He Is an exception
of a Hines, for he with all Of his
sons are Republicans and gentlemen.
He Is well educated and would make
as good 6 Commissioners a. any man
in Sampson County. He is In the
right place, away down there In
Turkey, where political patronage Ii
unknown. Let's nominate and elect
him for one OF the Commissioners,
and by all means let's nominate and
elect J. T. Kennedy, Of North CIin-
ton township for one Of the legisla-
tive members. We will make no
mistake in doing this.
Why don't our '.good" Republi-
cans like f. Spencer Blackburn, stop
cursing Republicans and try the
Democrats awhile? | despise O
family that has a racket in their
camp always. Let's shoot the enemy
and let our friends alone.
We expect to beat the Democrats
in Sampson, and want to beat them
in the State. Can we do itf Not
if we keep cursing each other.

be a splendid text coming IS it does
from the paper controlled principally
by Grant and Blackburn.
Nine years to wait for change.
How would this do to apply to these
two distinguished gentlemen? For
instance: Grant ten or twelve years
as postmaster at Goldsboro; three
or four years as paymaster in the

the inefficient, stiff, impolite, irrita-

the United States Court at Raleigh,

good people of Goldsboro as their
postmaster, and they don't want
him if they can get the present post
master. My God, does he think he
ought to have 1t all solely because he
is of northern birth. Well, 80 much
