INDIAN MEETS
DEATH ON RAILS
Drunken 0rgie Results in
Bucks Awful Death

Cut squarely in two by the Northern
Pacific freight train No. 5, the body
of Mid Bay John. an Indian, was
picked up by Coroner MacMartin last
night two miles this side of Snake
rIveh and this morning brought to
town.
Mid Bay john was an Indian about
40 years of age, of the type of wander
ers which are continually drifting in
and out of the Snake river towns.
Nothing further concerning his identi-
ty could be learned by the coroner, who
went TO the scene of the accident last
night.
1t seems that Mid Bay John" and a
companion. another Indian, had bat
tie of whiskey over which they had
been fighting. John struck the other
Indian over the head and ran up the
track with the bottle.
There he appropriated the entire
contents of the bottle, as was shown
by the empty flask when it was found
In the drunken stupOr which followed,
the Indian composed himself for a
long rest on the cinders in the roadbed.
When the local freight, No. 5, came
along, about the 8 o'clock D. m. the
black shirt the drunken sleeper wore
gave him the appearance of being a
heap of cnders on the track. until the
train was so close it was impossible
to stop. The train passed over the
body cutting him into two almost
equal sections. upper and lower.
Coroner MacMartin was notified at
once and went to the scene of the ac-
cident on the o'clock passenger. He
prepared the body last night and
brought it to the city this morning. He
will be buried in the county cemetery
either this afternoon or tomorrow
morning.
No papers, or other identification
was found on the body. Apparently he
had simply came to town with another
Indian and got on sthe drunk ending
in his death. The wherea bouts of the
other Indian could not be learned.
No inquest will be held as the cause
Of the death is evident and the dead
man was trespassing at the time he
was killed.
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1907-07-03

was worth nothing, it represented
nothing. He also thought it reflected
upon the bookkeeping of the depart
ment that though an item of $25S1.21
of the above amount had been used to
purchase and install SO hydrants dur
ing the past six years, yet no returns
on these had been given. He disclaim-
ed anv intimate acquaintance with ac-
counting but said he failed to under
stand how a statement of all that had
been attached to each hydrant in the
way of covers. lead pipe, tees, oakum'
etc could be given if no account had
been kept.
The controversy was brought to
close bv a few remarks by Councilman
Mexican. Kirkman and Tauslck ana
Mayor KellOugh.
Mexican said: "This statement or
the report simply explains where the
material mentioned is. 1t has been
charged I'D to the water department
when it should not have been as most
of il is in the ground.
The MAYOR said: When pipe is
changed. the old pipe is often taken
ont and put in the yard, but in many
instances it is not worth taking up.
Shorrock. however charged it to the
departnent as though it had all neen

as the greater part of the material
charged was a complete loss
Councilman Kirkman then remarked:
This is all the result of never having
had the books exported before. Trou-
BILE always results when an expert
bumps into a bOOkkeeper. A difference
is always found as the methods of the
two are widely different. The only
way to avoid this difficulty in future
is to have the books exported every
year and for the department to WORK
into more complete system of book
keeping. This can be put in opera
ton only by a trained expert.
There should be some record kept
as to when pipe is taken out and
with a complete record of the dispo-
sition of the pipe, such explanations
would be unnecessary.
"It is up to the new water committee
to inaugurate more complete sys-
tenn of keeping accounts. This is one
reason for a new city charter. Untii
all city accounts are kept under one
head there will be greater or less
degree of lack of harmony"
The report was then referred to the
finance committee with instructions 10

age.

A feature of last nights council pro-
ceedings was the lowering Of the pro-
posed license for junk shops by $50 per
annum which was Immediately fol-
lowed by the defeat of the ordinance
providing for the licensing of the
shops.
The action in the matter Of the junk
shops was opened with the reading OF
City Attorney Blandfords opinion upon
the matter. This brought out the fact
the city had the power to license stores
providing the license be not prOh.bitive.
He recommended a license of s. per
quarter.
The attorneys suggestion was ac-
cepted and Clerk Hart was instructed
to reduce the license quoted in the or
dinance. l. was also carefully stipu-
lated in the ordinance that all Junk
