Priest and an Editor In q Gar That Ran over
n. Bennett Near New Rochelle.

Tee tut wear sNVW hvCttthts
NEW ROCHELLE. n Y, Aug. 3.-Edward
Bennett. who had a cleaning and dyeing
establishment in the New Rochelle Theatre
building. died in the New Rochelle Hospital
this afternoon from injuries received late
last night when he was run over by a touring
car operated by DIR. Condo b. Pallen. editor
of the New Catholic Encyclopedia
In the machine with DIR. Fallen was the
Rev. Thomas +. Mclaughlin. who is pastor
of the Church oI the Blessed Sacrament in
New Rochelle. The accident occurred on
the Boston post road just over the Laroh-
mont line. DIR. Fallen and Father McLough-
lin were bound for Larchmont. while Mr..
Bennett was returning to New Rochelle on
a bicycle.
Mr.. Fallen and Father Mclaughlin say
that Mr.. Bennett was oil the wrong side
OF the road and that just before they res ched
him another machine came along al a rapid
rate and crowded them to the curb. They
had supposed that Bennett had intended
TO take the path between the two machines.
but instead of this he appeared to be be-
wildered and after z~igzagging a couple
of times he turned again toward the curb.
The car struck the wheel and smashed 1t
TO pieces.
Bennett was thrown under the machine
and when DIR. Pallen md Father McLoughlin
got out they found that he was pinned
beneath the car. They tried to back the
car of the man but were unable to move
it owing to the condition OF the steering
gear, which was wrecked by DR.. Pallen in
trying to avoid the collision by running
into the curb. The priest and editor waited
n short time until some chauffeurs in pass
ing cars helped them lift up the heavy
wheels and release Bennet
After hearing the explanation OF DR..
Fallen and Father Mclaughlin the Coroner
permitted them TO go on their own recog-
nizance with the understanding that they
would appear at the inquest.

Guggenheim Syndicate Still Un' decided Between KataIIa

By Cable to The Daily Gateway

Seattle, Jan. Latest developments seem to make it certain that either the Copper River railroad from Cor dova or the Copper River X North western from Katalla will be aban- baaed, but that M. J. Heney, the contractor for the Cordova road, will be the contractor for the one that is built, whether from Cordova or Katalla,
 The reports circulated recently that the packers of the two companies had come together in tentative coHsoli- dation is now confirmed. It is not yet decided whether the terminus will be Katalla or Cordova. M. K. Rogers, the engineer who made surveys last summer for the Katalla route, strong ly favors Katalla, and the Guggen- helms, the principal packers of the road, are said to. favor it also. MT. Heney declares that Cordova will be the terminus. Much will depend on the estimated cost of breakwater at Katalla. Mir. Heney owns a half in- tereSt in the Cordova townsite.

KATALLA TO BE
 SEA TERMINUS
GuggenheimS' Chief Engineer Says Railroad Will Start
 From That Vicinity.
By Cable to The Daily Gateway.

Seattle, Jan. ll--Henry DeyO, chief engineer of the railroad which the Guggenheims will build in Alaska, arrived here today from the east. He declined to discuss the railroad pro- feet further than to say that the line will touch tide water at or near Katalla and will follow the base of the mountains.
 This statement is taken here as mo- tice that all other bases have been eliminated from consideration and that the question has settled down to that of selecting the most available point for harbor in the vicinity of Katalla. It is understood that NJ. K. Rogers reported positively in favor of Katalla as the sea terminus of the line on on account of its proximity to the Kayak coal fields and the easy route it offers to the interior.
