Dickinson, N. D., Aug. 29The n.
P. railroad siding at South Heart had
a bloody afternoon yesterday. At
2 o'clock, as Conductor Cunning CHAM
was getting his train out on the main
line, a draw bar gave way and his
head brakeman, F. NJ. Teal, who was
on the top of the car was thrown
to the ground and sustained frac-
lures in both arms and many bruises
about the face. He will be taken to
the hospital at Brainerd today.
The siding and main line was block
ed with cars and it was found neees-
sary to cut the caboose and one cat
tile car from the train SO that the
engine could be taken around the
train to bring Teal to Dickinson. The
second crew was summoned to help
start the cars and as soon as the
engine got around the train, 1t was
sent after the two cars which were
moving slowly down the main line
The engine gave the cars a bump en-
deavoring to*couple up but the COUP

A Bum, Awakened / by Police
man Is Scared Into a
Confession
Murdered Negro Two Years al
AGO in South Carolina
But Escaped

Chicago, Aug. 90 The old saying
that murder will out came true
in an unusual way last night, when
Policeman Frank Walsh awakened
"a man who was asleep in a door
way of the Illinois hospital Wash
ington boulevard and Halstead st.
The man, long fugitive from JUS
tice, opened his eyes, saw the police
man S star and leaped to his feet
with "a shrek.
You want me for the murder!
You are a policeman T. he cried, as
he stood, dazed before Walsh. "A
moment. afterward he collected his
wits and ran, but the policeman
caught and took him to the station.
At the station the prisoner at
first denied being murde rer, but
later broke down and confessed that
he is Charles F. Burbage, wanted
in Greenleaf, S. c., with a man nam
ed w. P. 7. HaWley, for the murder
of Gus Tanner, negro, two years
ago. ... 81.
He said he was arrested after the
murder, which occurred during a
saloon brawl, but escaped. Hawley
he said, escaped arrest at the time.
Burbage added that he had been a
fugitive for two years.
He is held at the Desplaines street
station and authorities of Greenleaf
have been notified of the arrest.
. In Burbage's possession letters
from the governor of South Caro-.
lima were found which purported to
be replies from the governor to quer-
les the fugitive had mailed him from
Washington, D. e., asking leniencs
il he should return and give him
self up. The replies of the governo,
said that nothing but justice could
be done. and apparently the fugi
tive decided not to return.
