LEGS GUT
OFF BY SWITCH
ENGINE
Richard Touart Fell in Front
of Engine on Tarragona
Street.

Richard Touart, a creole, residing
at the corner of Davis and Belmont
streets, had both legs so badly mashed
by a switch engine on North Tara
COMA street last night that amputation
was necessary, and this was done at
his home, where he was taken shortly
after the accident.
From what could be learned Touart
was going on a visit 20 his son early
in the evening. He attempted to
cross the L. & n. tracks south Of the
gas works as an engine was approach
ing, but stumbled and fell, the engine
passing over one leg and one foot.
The leg was almost completely sew
cred, while the foot was badly crushed.
Physicians found it necessary TO
amputate one leg near the knee and
the other just above the ankle.
The condition of the injured man
was reported last night as being very
serious.

His reception at the armory tonight,
where he addressed 1900 persons,
amounted to nothing less than a vol

Mr.. Bryan read statement con-
corning his attitude toward the gov.

said he thought he had expressed
himself so clearly in his New York
speech that he could not be miscon.
strued. That speech was carefully
prepared in advance, and stated ex.
actly what he wanted to state, and he
had nothing to withdraw or modify
in the statement then made. What
he had to say tonight was in the nat.

therein presented.
Mr.. Bryan's statement was read in

CONVICTIONS IN
THE CRIMINAL
COURT
Young White Boy Pleads
Guilty to the Charge of
Grand Larceny.

A number of cases were disposed of
in the Criminal Court yesterday, Judge
Beggs presiding.
Ben Stewart was convicted Of as
sault and battery and sentenced to pay
a fine of $40 and costs or serve As
days in Jail, and Bertha Davis was
convicted of third larceny, but has not
vet been sentenced. Arthur Jones
was convicted of petit larceny and
sentenced to serve term OF 10 days
in Jail.
One of the most important and in
teresting cases before the court dur
ing the day was that Of Joe Griggs,
charged with grand larceny. Griggs is
a boy about Is years of age, and came
here some months ago. He ran away
from an orphanage home in Alabama,
where it is stated his mother is mat
ron. Some weeks ago he took the
gold watch and some clothing belong
ing to Hans Nielsen, for which he was
arrested. When arraigned in court
yesterday he entered a plea of guilty
to the charge.
Judge Beggs has not sentenced the
boy, and it is probable that If the Or
phanage will take him in, that he will
be permitted to go there on account
of his youth.
The last case on the docket for the
day was that of West Milton, charged
with aggravated assault. He was con-
victed and fined $50 and costs or serve
six months at hard labor
The MunicinaI Court
Nine defendants were arraigned in
the municipal court yesterday, presid-
ed over by Acting Recorder J. J. Sui

ferred to the county, sentence sus-
pended in one case and fines amount
ing to $27 imposed.

SENAT OR DICK
SUCCEEDS IN
OHIO
BY Associated Press.

Dayton, Ohio, Sept. 12-United
Senator Dick won a decisive victory
as the Republican leader in Ohio at
the state convention here to-day.
Involved in the fight was the ques-
ton of President Roosevelt and both
the Ohio senator's, who do not always
agree with the president, and here
Senator Dick also won, since the sena-
tors were given commentator in
every way equal to that accorded the
president.
Congressman Burton led hard
fight on Dick as chairman of the state
executive committee, but accepted de-
feat CALAMITY.
The convention then settled down to
the nomination of a state ticket, head
ed by Carmi Thompson, as candidate
for Secretary of State.
The convention reached a final adj
journment at 2:40 this afternoon.

Troops at the Palace.
A CLOSE WATCH KEPT IN HA
VANA, WHICH MAY BE THREAT
ENED BY THE INSURGENTS
CUBAN CONGRESS SUPPORTING
PRESIDENT PALMA-THE soLU
TON OF THE PROBLEM.
BY Associated Press.

Havana, Sept. 12.-The determined
ly beligerent attitude of the govern
ment has not yet brought about re-
sumption of the fighting, but it is be-
lieved generally that a battle must
come.
The only Offset to this situation is
the faint hope that congress may un-
dertake negotiations with the insur-
gents. This is not likely, as congress
is strongly moderate and supports
President Palma.
A frequent expression of opinion
here is that whatever is done now
the United States ultimately must
solve the problem.
War Developments.
So far war developments went to-
day was one of the quietest since the
outbreak, but the public interest was
deeper and discussion more animated
and earnest than on any preceding
day. The governments outright
declaration that the war will be prose
Cuted to finish was everywhere the
sole topic of of discussion. That fight
ing of far more desperate character
will result as soon as the news shall
have spread throughout the provinces
is not doubted in any quarter. The
fear of an attack by the insurgents on
Havana is spreading.
This afternoon the government
forces in Havana paraded through
the principal streets and were greeted
with some enthusiasm.
The parade was reviewed by Presi-
dent Palma at the palace. Particular
plans have been prepared for the de-
tense of the outskirts of the city. The
American Captain Reno's rapid-tire
battery keeps nightly vigil at La Fuer-
"a Castle, in front of the palace, pre-
pared to sweep the Place de Arms
Park fronting on the palace, in the
event of any surprises in that quarter.
The water works at VentO Springs
and other outlying exposed points are
being guarded with increasing vigil
ance.
1t is not generally believed that
there is a sufficient insurgent force
near Havana at present to at
tempt to enter the city, and many
doubt whether the insurgents will
have sufficient nerve In any event to
attempt to traverse the long distance
from the suburbs to the palace with
the certainty of death to many of the
attacking force on the way.

The ships sent to Cuba are for the
