Nevada. March 14.--Damage suits ag-
gregating something over $4,000
against the Northwestern Railway
Company, were filed in this county
yesterday, the larger portion of which
arises from the accident which occurred
at Ames the fore part of February.
when Miss Sadie White was killed and
her mother Mrs. j. T. White was SER
iously injured. and their carriage
wrecked by being struck with fast
meat train as they were attempting
to cross the tracks at Ames. The de-
tails of the awful tragedy are too well
known to the readers of the Times
Republican to need repetition.
Yesterday afternoon. thru his at
torneys, Messrs Mccarthy g. Lee, of
Ames, Mr.. White, as administrator of
the estate of the late Sadie White,
brought suit for damages amounting
to 1893, for the death of the daugh-
ter. This amount he asks for in two
separate actions. For the injuries to
Mrs. White. which she claims are SER
ious, permanent and will leave her a
helpless cripple for life. that lady asks
damages of 100000, and because of the
injuries to the younger daughter. Hazel
as her next friend, Mr.. White asks
damages in the sum of 1899.
In the different petitions, they hold
the company responsible for the acci-
dent, because Of negligence on the
part of their employees In not giving
the proper signals OF the approach OF
the train, because Of the fact that they
were running thru the incorporated
town of Ames at a speed far beyond the
statutory limit. and because the cross
ing where the accident occurred is not
properly protected with suitable gates
in operation or some other method OF
protection to the person crossing at

AMEs CITY CAUCUS.
There Was Considerable Strife Be-
tween the Candidates For Nomina-

Special to Times Republican.
Ames, March 1.-THE city caucus
held in this city last evening was
largely attended, and considerable
strife existed between the several can
didates in the field for nominations for
the different offices. The convention
was called to order by Chairman l.. G..
Hardin. Henry Wilson was then made
permanent chairman. l. G. Hardin
and John Judge were made secretaries
of the convention. Farley Sheldon
was made the unanimous nominee by
reclamation for mayor to succeed him.
self. The same occurred with M. A.
Manning for treasurer The greatest
interest conferred on the nomination Of
an assessor, there being five candidates
in the field. Carl l.. Little, the present
incumbent of the office, was made the
nominee Of the caucus after a vigorous
fight. Two ballots were taken, Little
winning BY margin of SO votes on the
formal ballot. The other candidates
were Ira j. Scott, E. T. Kooser, H. B.
Corlette and Geo. Pitsor. Fl. e. Slat-
terry by reclamation was nominated for
city attorney to succeed himself. The
convention then adjourned and con-
vened in ward caucuses and placed In
nomination candidate for council-
man from each ward with the excep-
ton of the third, where two nominees
were to be selected. A committeeman
was also selected from each ward. The
nominees for councilman in the four
wards were as follows: First ward,
G. II. Maxwell, to succeed C. A. Duntz;
George Judisch, committeeman; Sec
ond ward, George III. Graham, to sue
coed him self; Henry Wilson, commit
teeman; Third ward, John Lanning, to
succeed himself for the full term. and
M. Hullaoarger, to fill vacancy caused
by the decease of M. Hemstreet; F. n.
Fowler, committeeman; Fourth ward,
Prof w. M. Wilson; w. H. Kelly, Jr.,
committeeman. It now seems very
probable that candidate for assessor
will be brought out on an Independent
ticket in opposition to the regular NOM
inee of the caucus. 1t is also reported
that an Independent candidate for
councilman in the Third ward will en-
ter the field for the full term.
