SCALDED To DEATH
UNDER ENGINE.

FLAGSTAFF. July S.-At O'Clock
this afternoon at point four miles
west of here passenger train No. 4.
the eastbound limited, was wrecked.
Fireman Edward Pillsbury was caught
under the engine and scalded to death.
Both legs of Engineer Goldsworthy
were scalded and he was also injured
about the chest. but no passengers
were hurt. The accident was caused
by one of the front trucks of the
engine leaving the track.
That the fatality list is small is due
to the presence of mind of Engineer
Goldsworthy. who applied the brakes
and remained at his post until the
engine started to turn over. Then he
Jumped. The engine turned over on
it's left side and a composite car and
dining car slipped over the crest of an
embankment. The three Pullmans
were left standing on the track
TOPEKA, Kans.. July 8.-According &
to advices received here the only pass
enger injured in the Santa Fe wreck
at Flagstaff was Mrs. Roberts of Oak
land, Cal, who sustained a severe

WAIT FOR DOCTOR
BRINGS DEATH.

Mrs. Samuel Hamilton. wife of a
shipbuilder employed at the Union Iron
Works, took carbolic acid last night
and died after waiting for forty five
minutes on the doorstep of the Potfero
Emergency Hospital for medical aid,
which came too late.
The woman drank the poison about
10 o'clock She was hurried to the hos
pital by her usband and Policeman
William Quinlan. When the three ar
rived there they found the place locked
and could arouse one. Nearly an
hour later the ambulance arrived from
a call with Steward Wade Stone DIR.
William Buell.. the doctor in charge
of the hospital was summoned, but the
poison had done Its work
Had there been a doctor in the Po-
trero hospital, Mrs. Hamilton would
probably have lived. Steward Stone
says that he was ordered from the
Central Emergency Hospital to take
his ambulance to Seventh and Folsom
streets and convey a paralyzed man to
the City and County Hospital He in
formed the Central Emergency people
that II he went he would have to lock
the hospital, and was told that the doc
tor on duty said that he must make
the run. While he was gone. Mrs. Ham
iltons arrived at the hospital She was
not In much distress on her arrival, but
kept getting worse. When Stone re-
turned with the ambulance she was un-
conscious.
DIR. Buell. is in charge of the hospi-
tai. but does not sleep there. 1t would
seem that no provision has been made
for a surgeon to remain in the institu-
ton in the event that the ambulance
is sent out. Mrs. Hamilton was com
PEELED to walt nearly an hour before
the Potrero Emergency Hospital sur
geon could be sent for and her case
treated.
The surgeon worked hard to save
the woman, but she died despite his
efforts. Policeman Quinlan reported
the circumstances of the case to the
Potrero police station. He says he un-
derstood that the Potrero Hospital was
open for the reception of patients at
all hours.
The dead woman was 30 years of
age No cause is known for her swal-
lowing the acid.

CABRERA CHARGED WITH
POLITICAL TRICKERY

MEXICO CITY. July s-Documents
are being published by which 1t will be
proved that President Cabrera of Qua
temala in 1903 entered into negotia-
tions with DIR. Prudencia Alfaro. who
had been Vice President Of Salvador,
whereby 1t was agreed that Alfaro
should organize revolution in SAL
vador against the administration of
President Thomas Regalado.
One of the most important documents
in the case is a letter from Alfaro to
President Cabrera dated June 8. 1903.
wherein Alfaro says that on the estab-
nshment of a new Government In Sal
vador an alliance, offensive and defen-
sive shall be entered into between SAL
yador and Guatemala.
1t is charged that two years later. or
in 1905. President Cabrera grew sus-
picious OF Alfaro and feared he would
publish these compromising documents.
and 1t was only through the efforts of
the American Consul that Alfaro could
leave Guatemala. The explanation of
Cabrera's change of purpose is that he
was afraid to carry out his part of the
bargain

D|SSENS|ON DENIED
BY JAMES AGLER.

All rumors regarding the dissention
between James Agler, general man
ager of the California Northwestern
Railway and the North Shore Rail-
road. and A W. Foster, president of
both systems, is denied by the former.
Nevertheless the rumors of unfriend-
illness between the two officials Is per-
sistent and apparently founded on
some elements of truth
Manager Agler was seen in his pri-
vate car at Mill Valley yesterday even
ing. He fatty denied having any trou-
BILE with President Foster. Foster
could not be seen. as he is away from
home and will not return until today.
Statements of employees of the two
companies give color to the rumors
of trouble. 1t is said there is an air
of coldness between the two officials
when they are compelled to converse,
and that they are never seen riding
over the roads together. a thing Foster
frequently did with other managers
The supposed cause of the difficulty
between the two men is the manner in
which trains have been cut out on
the California and Northwestern be-
tween San Rafael and San Francisco,
thus sending the travel by way of
the North Shore Railroad. When inter-
viewed on the subject last evening, Ag-
Ter said:
There is nothing in the rumor that
am following the dictates of the South
ern Pacific in the management of the
California Northwestern and the North
Shore systems The Southern Pacific
has nothing to do with my manage
ment. Mr.. Foster and l are the best of
friends, and 1 am following a policy
outlined by and agreeable to him.
"Theserumors are continually spring
ing up, and j pay no attention to them.
Both roads are in good condition, and
everything is running harmoniously
and satisfactorily. No. l anticipate no
radical changes in the management or

fort TO enforce the Governors rpIinf,
that the lid must be kept on. but. after
making more than one hundred ar
rests and getting the jail so full that

the struggle.
AS fast as a saloon keeper or bar

meanor charge Every man who was
arrested Immediately reopened his
place OF business and the Chief of Po-
lice finally announced that after a man
was ARE .'7d again he should be unmo-

The concerted action taken by the
saloon men to remove the lid was taken
