o Pounds weight for Months. o..

PHILADELPHIA, June A.-After long
suffering, j. Walter Wilde. a West Point
cadet. has won his battle with nature, and

furlouRh. While riding, his horse rolled
over, crushing the bones Of his right Leg.
The broken bones mended, but the jea
shrank several inches. The cadet knew
it would be impossible to continue his milf
tary career with such a handicap. Eminent
surgeons were consulted and they agreed
that il Wilde would submit to a painful
operation the leg might be restored to its
normal condition.
He was brought to the Polytechnic Hospitsl
here, where the operation was Performed
last March. The bones Of the leg were
rebroken, A weight Of 800 pounds was
attached TO the leg by means of a ron1
and pulley and the limb was drawn in
from the cot and held there for two month";
Although the physicians say Wilde must
have endured the greatest agony, he never
complained. Several days ago the veirhf
was taken of and the surgeons found chat
tha Lao had been drawn to it's normal length. i

the Erie Railroad. 1t was shipped in bags
some of which were torn when received.
1t is unknown whether the caps were placed
in a bag en- route or after arrival at Passaic,
where delivered. or in the factory. He

of anybody to injure the firm or any Of its
help.

Company of New Jersey, Detective Court
er said these contained sufficient force to

visibility or Conspiracy Charge.


PHILADELPHIA, June 24.-Plans will be
completed in New York this week for the
prosecutions that are to be brought by the
Government against the Pennsylvania Rail-
road and the Standard Oil Company. Alex
ander Simpson of this city and Charles
E. Hughes will confer as to the details and
place the result in the hands of United
Ste tes District Attorney j. W. Thompson,
VINO will conduct the cases.
The chief question is the advisability OF
a~rraigning A. j. Cassatt, presid ent of the
Pennsylvania. 1t is believed that more
effective results can be accomplished by
centring the prosecution upon Cassatt
than by scattering the Government energies.
The charge to be made by the Govern
ment will be conspiracy. The lawyers say
that facts brought out in the investigation
of relations among the railroads, the Stand
ard Oil Company and favored coal COM
panies can only be explained on the grounds
of a private understanding.

A INTERESTING LETTER REcEIv.
ED FROM YOUNG WOMAN BY
RELATIVES DESCRIPTION OF
THE MODS WORK.

There has been much concern re-
garding Miss Kate Ogborn, formerly
of Henry county, who was in China
where the recent massacre of mission
aries occurred, she being well known
to church people throughout the state
as an earnest mission worker. Miss
Ogborn has numerous relatives in
Richmond and Wayne county. The
following from the New Castle Cour-
Ter will allay all fears as to her safety
though she had a narrow escape, it
seems:
Albert D. Ogborn is in receipt of a
letter from his cousin. Miss Kate Og-
born, Methodist missionary, station
ed at Nan Chang, China, dated since
the uprising of natives in March, in
which she states that she and a party
of missionary numbering in all four
teen members, were able to escape
from the city when trouble was brew
ing and they probably owe their lives
to the charitable services of friendly
Chinese, who reside in the city. Ac-
cording to the writer of the letter, the
massacre was the result of the story
in circulation to the effect that a
French priest had killed a native off,
Ger.
When the mob was organized ma
tive residents who are friendly and
very familiar with the attaches of
the Baldwin Memorial school of

until the uprising subsidized.
During the time that mob law pre-

story of the bloodshed is sufficient to
strike terror and fear to the hearts of
those in the country who have some

suit in.
