Are Dragged Under Wheels.

Are Dragged Under Wheels.
Oskaloosa.--In one Of the most hor.
ripie street car accidents which ever
happened In Iowa, mother and babe
were fatally injured Tuesday evening.
while another woman and her young
child We're badly hurt.
The injured:
Mrs. Belle Padgett OF Oskaloosa,
hip and right leg crushed; leg ampu,
tated at joint; will die.
Gretta Padgett, aged 8 years: right
leg and right arm cut of by wheels;
will die.
Mrs. Lillian Mayer Of Eddyville;
nip badly cut. face gashed, body
bruised.
Helen Mayer, aged 8 years; face
and body cut and bruised.
The two women and their babies
were on their way home from the
Chautauqua at $3.50 O'Clock tonight
and had arrived at the corner of
South Market street and Fourth ave
nue. when they started to turn in be-
hind car going in the same dtrec-
ton. OF a second car behind the
nrst they did not reckon and this
was the cause Of the awful accident.
The Intention of the party in the
vehicle was plain to the few who saw
the course OF events. Turning in be-
hind the passed car, the rear wheels
OF the vehicle had all but PASSED the
rails, when the Off wheel caught in
the track.
Behind them the motorman changed
his gong and the horse grew fright.
ened The animal baked, reared and
pushed backward.
The car struck the buggy, knocked
1t over and crumpled it up Horse
carriage and the four unfortunate
women and children were dragged
and showed 100 feet before the agon.
lzed motorman brought the car to a
stop.
One of the Mortified spectators was
Margaret Donnelly, a Des Moines
woman who is living here as train
ed nurse in Mercy hospital. She
promptly took the tragedy in hand,
rushed into nearby house with the
youngest baby whose poor little body
was terribly manned, two limbs hav-
ing been cut off by the wheels. Then
she came back and directed the
measures taken for the others until
the doctors came
The condition Of Mrs. Padgett, who
is daughter, of Robert Kent,
prominent resident here, is regarded
as hopeless. It was necessary tG
amputate the leg at the hip joint at
once fol. the leg had been horribly
crushed in several places. Her sis.
ter, Mrs. Mayer, and the latter's
daughter, are less seriously hurt, but
there IS grave danger from nervous
shock. The motorman is exonerated
from blame by witnesses Of the affair
and by Mrs. Mayer.

about 20 per cent. insurance, the high
rates having been almost prohibitive
for the taking of large risks on the

PLEADS INSANITY
Defense Claims Dissipation I'm
paired Loving's Mind.
THE THAW CASE QUOTED

Lawyers In Wran9le Over FroseCu-
TONS Attempt to Disprove Miss
Lovines Testimony, and New York
Trial Is Cited.
Houston, Va, June 27.-Interest In
the trial Of Judge Loving for the muir
der Of young Theodore Estes Jagged
somewhat. The features were the clos
ing of the case Of the defense after
the examination of three witnesses for
the purpose of proving that Judge Low
ing was insane at the time OF the
killing of young Estes, and the first
presentation by the attorneys for the
prosecution Of what they intend to
prove if certain witnesses are allowed
to testify.
The plea Of the defense Is that the
mind of Judge Loving had, after years
of dissipation, which frequently caused
him to have delirium tremens from
excessive drinking of whiskey, became
so impaired that when he heard the
story Of his daughter. Miss Elijah eth
Loving, that she had been drugged
anu dS5dultcUs nc USCdAC uOl ohoSl
and was not responsible for his act
In killing Estes.
Counsel for the defense hope
through the plea of emotional insanity
to prevent any attempt, to impeach the
statement of Miss Loving The prose
cution announced as their frst witness
Miss Annie Kidd, who they said would
disprove the story of Miss Loving.
This was Immediately objected to. and
the jury retired, after which lengthy
legal discussion was gone into. T e
attorneys for the defense argued that
the prosecution had no right to enter
into the truth or falsity Of the story
told by Miss Loving to her father. and
as an example cited the New York
case in which District Attorney Je-
rome was not allowed to impeach the
testimony of Evelyn Thaw.
The ruling of Judge Barksdale on
this point is deemed most important
by the counsel in the case, as the
prosecution claims to have witnesses
to disprove every statement made by
the girl witness, who told the story Of
her ruin between sobs on the stand.
