on his way home from school. He
is child of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank

From the time that the accident
happened the lad exhibited remark

plaint of the awful suffering which
he must have undergone. The fire.
man on the train, looking back from
the engine cab, saw the boy trying
to crawl from beneath the train.The
train was stopped and the injured lad
was taken on board and carried to
the Union Station. The mangled
stubs of his little legs were roughly
bandaged and he was made as COM
Portable as possible in the baggage
room, while Hess G. Markerts ambu-
lance was summoned. He was then
taken to the DR.. C. Z Sawyer sana-

tated. In the meantime, word was
sent to the boys father. who is EN-
ployed in the quarries at Owens, and
the operation was not performed un-
til Mr.. Blue had reached the hos
pital.
The right leg was amputated be-
ween the knee and ankle and the left
leg half way between the hip and
knee.
Although there have been times
when the boy has been delirious. for
the most part he has been conscious.
At the baggage room at the Union
station, he told Bageagemaster Sco-
vile his name and answered all
questions readily. Only once did he
complain that his leg panied him.

back into the arms of the man who
carried him. II is thought that
this was the first time he realized the
awful nature OF his misfortune.
Although weak from loss of blood,
the lad passed fairly restful night
and today is resting nicely. AL
though he is not out of danger, the
most serious effects of his shock are
past and it is thought that he has
an excellent chance for recovery
Just how the accident happened
seems TO be unknown. The boy was
with company OF children going

say that he tried to jump on cut

that he was struck while standing on
the track.
The boy himself will say little II
Ianything about the accident. although

that he did not try to catch any

Boise, Idaho, May 6.Judge Ere
mont Wood will, on Wednesday
next, decide if on the eve of his trial
for the murder Of former Governor
Frank, Steunenberg, William Hay
wood is entitled to receive at the
hands of the state a bill of particu-
lars specifying the overt acts charged
against him. The motion of defense
for this disclosure of the case of the
state was argued at length today,
and at the conclusion of the discus
sion the court announced that it
would make its decision at the time
stated. \. 4. s.
The prisoner, under guard of
Sherif Harlem and two deputies,
was brought into court for the argu-
ment, and OF his counsel both Frank
Richardson of Denver and Clarence
Darrow Of Chicago, pleaded in his
behalf. Senator Borah alone spoke
in behalf of. the state. although
James H. Hawley, his associate, was
in the court room when the proceed
ings began. The discussion, always
earnest, was characterized at times
by deep feeling and dramatic inten-
sity.
Richardson, who opened the argu-
ment, contended that the indictment
was lacking in particularly, that it
left the defendants in the dark as to
the nature Of the case to be pre-
scented against them, and the defend
ants were entitled to more specific
showing Of the case. He submitted
an extended brief citing great
number of authorities and prece-
dents. in favor of his contention.
Mr.. Borah in reply declared the
defense was seeking disclosure OF
the proof in the hands of the state
rather than more perfect pleadings
and asserted the reports contained
no single authority that would sup
port such a contention.
Mr.. DarroW, who closed the argu-
