SATURDAY NIGHT

Out at the West End Saturday
night about closing time a battle
royal occurred. However. it was not
so bad as first reported. At II
o'clock that night someone tele-
phoned to the sheriff's office that a
man had been murdered there. A
lot of people on the streets believed
the rumor. The truth of the mat
ter was that trouble seemed to have
been brewing out there all evening.
Some fellow hit Irwin Kidd. He
just hit him once but that was a
plenty. He nearly killed him and
for a while it was feared that he was
dead.

WARNACK'S
STATEMENT

j T.
Ralph S. Warnack, the fireman
who was 50 badly injured in the ex-
plosion of engine 230O at Wilson
burg Saturday morning, in which
Engineer Board and Brakeman
Bond lost their lives, is entirely out
of danger now and talked interest
ingly to Telegram man at st.
Mary's hospital this morning.
He has a fractured skull, frac-
tured arm and several. bruises about.
the head and shoulders. OF course
he remembers nothing about the ac-
cident, Not a thing can he recall
since shortly before the blowing up
until he regained consciousness in
the hospital Saturday evening.
However, things are coming back
to him gradually and in a few days
he expects to recall many incidents
that now clude his memory.
Il can account for nothing that,
would cause the big machine. 10 let
go, was his statement. 81 am
positive that Board had plenty Of
water in her. Board was one of the
finest fellows that ever stepped on
an engine. We were in to clear at
Summit for No. / and the engine
was good and hot. She was the
best steamer anyhow, l ever saw.
/ didn't have the slightest trouble
anywhere in keeping her hot and /
know that Board always keeps the
slosest kind of a watch on the water.
No, it couldn't have been that.
''If the water was low she would
have let go while we were pulling
out of Summit. He was working
steam for three or four train
lengths and with the throttle open
the water viii go lower and the ex-
plosion would have occurred then.
EsYou see he was just opening her
up on the flats when it occurred. A
fireman usually watches the water
bottle and gauges as closely as the
engineer does and j certainly would
have noticed the wafer getting low
had that been the trouble. We all
fire according to the amount of water
in the boiler.
''Board was an extra man and /
think ] watched the water closer this
trip than usually. l don't care
what people think, / am reasonably
certain that causes other than short
age of water is responsible. Prob
ably in day or two l can throw
some light on the natter"
What else do you think could
cause it if that wasn't its. was ask
ed the Young fireman.
"Well, it might be number Of
things. There may have been a
flaw or weak place in the erogn-sheet
or a bolt might have broken. l
don't know what did cause it, but as
] have said, | am almost positive
that Ferd had all the water she
needed"
Warnack has been on the branch
for nearly three years and is rated
as one of the best firemen on the
division. His father and brother,
B. L. and W. H. Warnack, have ar
rived in the city and were oyerioyed
to discover that the injured man was
alive and would recover. They are
| from Lynchburg, Va.

DOUGHERTY FREED
OF SHOOTING CHARGE

Earl Dougherty was tried and dis
missed by Squire Riley Monday af-
ternoon for the shooting Of Sylvcs-
ter McAtee at the West End on last
Sunday i week Such an array of
witnesses was never seen in a
Glarksburg court trooili before. They
were McAtees, Douglertys, Watsons.
Murphys and various other families
represented and they were arrayedi
on their respective aides strong as
acid. One bunch would swear one
thing and the other side would come
in and swear just as strong in the
opposite direction.
Squire Riley admitted that it was
the worst mixed up affair he had
ever seen but decided that it wasn't
worth while to hold Dougherty for
further investigation. Attorney
Charles Moore appeared for Dough-
lefty. However, a warrant will be
sworn out against Dougherty for
carrying concealed weapons and this
will be tried before Squire Harry
Gordon.
