AUTO STRIKES A BUGGY
Irene NIcHenry and Mary Shnrtliif OF
Murray Victims, But Their
Bruises Not Serious.

During the wind storm raging in this
valley around 8 o'clock last night an
automobile driven by James *. Moyle
of this city, collided with a light bug
gy containing two Murray girls, but
luckily. the automobile was moving
very cautiously through the dust clouds
so no serious lasting injuries We're sus-
tained by any of those in the mix-up
The buggy was tipped over and the oc-
cupants, Irene McHenry and Mary
Shurtliff, thrown to the ground. Both
were badly frightened and shaken up
but examination at the Murray hos
pital showed they had suffered nothing
worse than bruises and a few scratch
es. Mr.. Moyle and a man riding with
him stopped the auto when 1t pushed
into the rear of the buggy and We're
ready to help the girls almost before
the wagon had fallen on it's side.
The accident ACQUIRED on Vine street,
one block east of State road. The au-
tcmobile was moving southwark and
owing to the terrific wind and the air
being filed with dust, Mr.. Moyle was
letting the machine creep along at a
gait little better than mans walk
He could see nothing ahead but dust
and was moving slowly. to prevent run
ming into anything and to be ready to
turn should something loom up through
the dust and bear down on him. 1t
was not until the front of the auto
pushed into the back of the buggy that
either occupant Of the auto had an
idea it was there. The lights and
lamps along the street at the point of
the collision were not lighted and all
was darkness-and dust. When the
machine and wagon met Mr.. Moyle
threw on his clutches. but the buggy,
being light, tipped over, The girls
were stunned and rendered half uncon-
scious through fright. They We're
picked up and hurried to the hospital.

the young women were greatly recov-

Mr. Moyle and Mr., McHenry are
great friends and Mr.. Shurtliff is also
an acquaintance of Mr.. Moyle's. Nei
Their father had a word Of cepsure to
say against the autoists, Mr.. McHenry
saying it was due to Mr.. Moyle's cau-
ton that n bad accident did not
happen as the street was dark by Some
one's carelessness in not having the
street lamps lighted. But the dust
storm blinded everyone out in 1t and
lights might not have rendered much
aid.

WOMEN SURRENDERED
Bondsmnn Goes Back on Them and
They Are Taken into Gus
today by Police.

There was considerable connection,
loud talking and much indignation
around police headquarters shortly aft
er / O'Clock this afternoon when Charles
McSwine, a negro politician of the
American" party persuasion. surren-
dered three colored women for whom he
had furnished bail. just why he took
this action does not appear. but it is
said that the women are indebted to
an attorney for services rendered and
We're slow in paying him. 1t is also
said that the attorney, William New
ton, was unable to collect his fee from
the women and requested that McSwine
surrender the women and draw down
the bail.
Whether this is true or not, the fact
Is that the women We're surrendered to-
day and the police took them in. Nc
Swine had deposited 81 500 for the three
women, $500 IN each case. 1t Is quite
probable that McSwine thought the
women intended to leave town and thus
jump their bonds.
The women are: Mary Jarrett, Kate
Speed and Bessie Ross The former is
under arrest on the charge of assault
with a deadly weapon With intent to do
bodily harm upon negro woman
named Ella Branch. Several weeks
ago the two women engaged in a row

SALT LAKER ON G. A. R.
Delegate n. D. corscr Returns and
Tells OF EXPERIENCES at the Ma
tlonal Encampmcnt

Delegate N. D. gCorser of the G. A. r,
IS the first of the returning pilgrims
to reach home from the Toledo national
encampment of the G. A. II. He says
there We're sc, 900 veterans in the parade,
many others present refraining from
marching on#account of their age. The
city was attractiveIy decorated, and
what specially pleased the visitors was
the fact that no advantage was taken
& of them to eXtort unconscionable prices
for anything. If a visitor went into
barber shop, he was charged no more
than any local customer. The same WAS
the case at the hotels, stores, and every
where The Toledo people asked no
more than was properly coming to
them. As to the choice Of a place OF
Bencampment for 1905 Mr. Corser said
Salt Lake was the faVorite from the
start Seattle did at first want it; but
the committee had for years made it
point not to select q city where there
was some other big convention or fair
going on at the time of the G.. A. r. en-
scampment; and the Seattle delegates
themselves acknowledged the wisdom
of this policy. So they turned in to
work for Salt Lake. Washington tried
to get 1t; but the veterans don't want
ito so there. as, Washington Is to have
the presidential inaugural the spring,
on in the national capital more or less
all the time, that no special interest
Ecansbe worked up over holding there

of the q. "A. R,awIll be ready, as prom
+ isad, at the time of the next national
meeting.
A strong effort was made to secure
the encampment for Atlanta, Ga, but
the veterans are dead sore against
any southern city. on account of the
experience at Jamestown, Va. where
scores of Rebel" flags were flung to
the breeze from the windows. The old
soldiers refused to walk on the side.
walks, as this would bring them under
the ''old rebel rags" SO they walked in
the street. The federal government
finally took a hand in the matter, and
Jamestown people were notified that.
unless those flags came down. there
would be no government aid for the
fair. The flags We're removed. Mr.. Cor
ser says this aroused such a feeling on
the part of the Union veterans that he
doubts If the Ct. A. r. national encamp-
ment will ever be held in any southern
city.
As to the Rev. Short episode of yes
terday, Mr.. Corser strongly deprecat-
ed any such wild ranting talk, as sure
to not only injure the city, but inter-
fere with the feelings of good fellow
ship that should obtain among all
classes Of citizens here and the visit
ing veterans. He; said only one dele
gate attempted to make unpleasant
remarks about Salt Lake City in the
meeting which decided on this city,
and he was shut off very quickly. Mr.,
Corser declared 1t was the wish of
all the old veterans in Utah that all
feelings of animosity DO laid aside in
connection with the. G. A. r. meet
