A BROKEN WHEEL
CAUSES BAD FREIGHT WRECK
ON PANHANDLE.
Breakdown at Indianapolis Causes
Local Trains 70 Get Badly
Of Schedule.

ArStc--MbtEi rs s-M. r nlSracHSh
A broken wheel on a freight car
caused an expensive wreck on the
Pennsylvania Lines last night just
east Of Irvington, near Indianapolis.
The train was running at fair speed
when the wheel broke and nine ears
were precipitated down an embank-
ment The track, which is in the vi
cinity of the Belt Road, was torn up
and the cars themselves demolished.
No one was hurt.
Traffic was delayed for almost ten
hours. The through trains from the
west which were due in Richmond at
about nine O'Clock reached here at
about four this morning, having
come around on the Big Four to
Lynn and down to this city on the G..
r. & l. The wrecking crew from this
city was called out to help clear the
right of way and spent the night at
the work.

few days and steps will probably be
taken at that time to see what can be
done in the matter.
Supt. A. Gordon, Of the local lines,
said yesterday that the bridge will
have to be raised sooner or later, as
the through ears will be higher and
will need more room for passage. The
street has been followed out as much
as it can be and the only thing left
IS to elevate the bridge 1t will al
ways be handicap to through ser
vice, if left as it is.
Through cars will be supplied with
larger and higher powered motors,
and these will occupy more space I'M
der the car. The cars will be set high
on the trucks, as are the Northwest
ern cars and the bridge will have to
be elevated about one foot to permit
of their passage.
The traction men think that the
people of Richmond should make an
attempt to have the bridge raised as
the through ears would be sent
around in another way if a passage
cannot be. established through this
city.

OUTCOME MINERS MEETING
At Indianapolis Will Determine
Whether Richmond is to Have
Cheap Coal. .-

The coal dealers Of the city met
yesterday afternoon in the rooms of
the Merchants Association for the
purpose of cutting the price on coal,
owing to the warm weather. At the
suggestion of one of the dealers, it
was thought best to postpone any ac-
ton until the result Of the confer
ence in Indianapolis between the op-
orators and miners is made public.
There has been a considerable ac-
-cumulation of coal in the city and as
the demand at present amounts to
almost nothing, the meeting was held
with view of bettering the markets.
AS a strike appears to be imminent,
it was thought best to take no steps
toward lowering the price until it
can be learned what will be done by
the miners.
In case there is a strike, the price
of coal at the mines would advance
and that would cause the dealers here
to raise the price again. Tn case
there is no strike, the price will be
arranged at later meeting. AS there
is no demand, the price will have to
break before any sales can be made.

Charles w. Stivers, editor of the
Liberty Herald, who announced him
self Monday as candidate for the
nomination of joint senator from
Wayne and Union counties on the
Republican ticket has decided to
withdraw from the race and leave the
field free for Senator Kirkman. Mr..
Stivers met the executive committee
of the Wayne county central commit
tee at it's meeting last night and an
nounced his intentions. He said that
Union county would have candi-
date for the Office in four years and
intimated that he might seek the
nomination at that time.
In a statement to the Palladium he
said:
After close study of the situation
in Wayne County especially as to the
Senatorial nomination, l have decid-
ed not to contest with Mr.. Kirkman
for the honor of serving the people
as State Senator My chief reason
for not continuing as candidate is
that the election is so near that I
could not put my candidacy before
the voters as / should desire to do,
and at this late date could hardly
hope to secure the nomination. l sin
cerely thank all friends for their
kind assurances of support. Trusting
that victory may come to the Repub-

POLICE ARE INVESTIGATING
Two Local Characters Are Under
Suspicion Number of Women
Have Been Frightened.

Last Saturday evening at an early
hour while Earnest Quigg, the ten
year old son of Mr.. and Mrs. w. I'll.
Quigg, III South Twelfth street, was
returning to his home, man step
ped out of the alley between Main
and South A streets, seized him and
placing one hand over the lad S
mouth to prevent his calling for help,
dragged him down the alley to the
lumber yard on South Eleventh street
just south of the Taylor livery barn.
There the man committed an unnam-
able assault on the boy. ..-s
Young Quigg was unable to resist
his assailant and too frightened to
make an outcry. After the man had
accomplished his purpose he allowed
the boy to return to his home.
On arriving home young Quigg in
formed his parents of what had taken
place and the police were at once in
formed. A thorough search of the
neighborhood inbwhieh the outrage
took place failed to give anygclue Of
the cowardly assailant's wherea-
bouts.
Young Quigg has suffered no i'll
effects from his terrible experience
and is able to give fairly accurate
description of the fiend who assault
ed him. He describes him as white
man, twenty-five to thirty years of
'bge, wearing corduroy trousers and
black coat but no overcoat. The as
sailant had slouch hat pulled over
Ibis eyes. The boy further states that
the man had moustache and his
beard was Of three or four days
growth.
Reports from various parts of the
city tell of man who has been at
tempting to hug women and frighten
them by following them and the po-
lice are inclined to believe that the
Quigg boys assailant is the same
person who has been terrorizing wom-
en-. .
f Not long ago two young women
were followed across the Main street
bridge and were so badly frightened
by their pursuer's actions that they
ran into the home of some people
with whom they were unacquainted
and asked protection. A few days ago
young woman who lives on South
Third street was chased by man
nearly to her home and as a result
she was terribly shocked by the
Z fright she sustained.
4 The police have two men under
suspicion in tn Quigg case and they
hope to make an arrest as soon as the
necessary evidence is secured. The
ground has been thoroughly gone
over and the two men under suspi-
cion answer the description furnish
ed by the Quigg boy. The news of
E the assault on Ernest Quigg has
been quietly spread about and as a
result the residents in the south
eastern part of the city are thorough
1 ly alarmed and the majority of par
ents will not allow their children to
leave their homes after night fall.

Contrary to all expectations the
National convention of the Machine
Printers and Color Mixers Union
continued it's sessions all of yester-
day instead of being brought to a
close Tuesday night, as scheduled.
When asked whether all of the del

GERS gave a decidedly forcible reply
in the affirmative, signifying that
they could not well afford to leave
before everything had been finished.
The business transacted is being
kept a closely guarded secret by all
of the delegates. They promise to
tell something at the close of the
convention, but not the slightest hint
of what that something is will they
let by.
The election of officers was the last
thing on the program and came late
in the afternoon. The sessions clos

Permission compelled the abandon

yesterday after the competitors, to
the unprecedented number of 267,
had lain for hours in pools of water,
. drenched to the skin and firing al
most at h%aphazard against the misty
outlines of the targets on the 1,000
! yard range. At IN stage firing be-
came impossible and riflemen, mark
ers and range officers ran for shell
ter. The range officer in charge in
formed the executive officer that the
targets were practically invisible, but
the latter official insisted that the
match be continued. Only about one
third of the rinemen consented to re-
urn to the firing line, and soon after
the executive officer ordered firing to
cease. 1t was then officially declared
off and would be a 10-shot instead of
a 20-shot competition tomorrow.
The company tyro match, the only
other event on the program, was
started late, in the hope that the
skies would clear, and was fought
out in a continuous downpour. The
match is five shots each at 200 and
500 yards. The match was won by
the team of the Calling gun platoon,
National Guard of Illinois, with a
score of 1879 out of a possible $50.

STEALING
C|TY'S WOOD
Foreigners in Suburbs Ravage
Timber Tracts Police Are
After Them.

During the past month the police
have had much trouble with for
eigners in the suburbs of the city,
who are frequently seen stealing
wood. In the past month a number
were arrested on the Lehigh Valley
property for the same 'offense, ana
were fined. The fines do not seem
to scare them in the least, and the
wood cutting stunts are still in evil
dence.
Walter Mullins, the milk dealer,
reported to the police last night that
a large gang was cutting wood on the
city property near the poor farm. Mr..
Mullins says this is a frequent occur
renee, and asserts that in a short
time they will have carried away the
entire woods. The police are on the
alert, and efforts will be made to
capture the guilty parties.
