stranser Get. Too Much nope.

Hans Pattee, a stranger in Council Bluffs,
was seeing things" Tuesday night az the
result. 1t IL believed, of INDUCING in an
overdose Of dope. At / o'clock he rushed
into the kiel hotel much excited and called
up police headquarters over the telephone.
To Sergeant O'Neill who answered Pat
tee told a weird story of having seen a
man ground to pieces beneath the wheels
OF a Rock Island train. He said he was
standing but a few feet from the track
when the train struck the man and killed
him. Securing a lantern, as he said. Pat
tee told the sergeant that he had spent an
hour searching in the weeds and tall
grass along the track for the mans body
without success.
Pattee was taken to police headquarters,
where for an hour he told a number of
other equally weird stories. He claimed
to have driven to Council Bluffs from
Atlantic and had gone to the railroad
crossing TO catch a train for home when
he witnessed the killing OF the man. He
also said ne had been working in the
harvest fields in Dakota and had driven to
Council BLUFFS from WATERFOWL, 8. d. At
one time, he said, the man killed by the
train was a stranger to him, while in the
next breath he said he had travelled from
South Omaha with him.
Inquiry by the police failed to show that
any man had been run over in any Of the
local yards and Pattee was locked up as
a precautionary move. In police court
yesterday morning Pattee decided he was
farmer living near Atlantic and that the
things he had seen Tuesday night re-
suited from samplins too many brands of
Council BLUFFS firewater. The court de-
cided also that a fine of s. and costs
would about fit his case. which he will
board out while SOLDERING up at the city
bastile.
