Specia! to Times Republican.
Waterloo. July 23.-Suit for $4,000
damages has been fled against the
Illinois Central railway by Frank G..
Edwards for the loss of a foot at
Charles City on the morning of March
2, 1907. The case was taken up In the
federal court at Dubuque where 1T
was withdrawn, the present petition
being filed in lieu thereof.
The petition states that plaintiff
was engaged as locomotive fireman on
an engine pulling freight No. 462,
north bound of which Charles E. Ed
wards was engineer, and when the
tran, reached Charles City there was
considerable switching to do. in which
the plaintiff was assisting in throw
ing switches and making couplings.
While thus engaged the engine was
backed against a tank car, failure
to make coupling resulted, the car
moving several yards further down
the track. Plaintiff stepped between
the engine and car to adjust the
coupling of the car and when in the
act of stepping from the track his
right shoe was caught securely in a
frog. The engine was several feet
away and was supposed to be moved
only on signals from plaintiff, and by
reason of the accidental catching OF
his shoe plaintiff was in no position
to signal the engineer so he leaned
over as far as possible and endeav-
ored to signal the engineer to stop.
The signal was not needed and the
tender of the engine was backed over
the foot, crushing and mangling the
member so it had to be amputated.

in the cook stove. 1t is not known

covered till the 1880 morning north
bound passenger train men reported
the body to the section men. BY some
miracle Mr.. Weisner was not run
over by the cars but in falling he had
struck the back of his head against q
railroad tie, crushing the skull so
there was large deep hole in the
back and side of his head. His right
leg was broken at the knee and also
just above the ankle. The deceased
was an unmarried man, 5S years of
age, born in Illinois but for many
years has made his home with his
brother -in-law, Fred Dole, who lives
on the Old Fill place on the ridge
road. His brother in Illinois and a
sister at Irvington are all that is left
of his family relations. Funeral was
held from the Catholic church at AL
gona, Father Halpin conducting the
service.

NEW MILL FOR THE
REESE RIVER CAMPS
MUCH ISEXPECTED

AUSTIN, New, June 20.-The
Skookum Times says; The problem
of the treatment of the low grade
ores of Austin and the Reese River
district has been solved. The meth
cd arrived at, after two months test
ing by ID. c. Boley, the metallurgist
of Chicago. will enable the mills at
Austin to profitably treat SIC ore.
Mr. Boley was selected for this
task because of his wide experience
as mill man and metallurgist and
his exceptional record in solving ore
reduction problems. He was one of
the principals in the erection of the
milling plant at the famous Home
stake mine at Lead. South Dakota.
He was therefore sought out by the
Austin Manhattan Consolidated Min
ing Co. as the man most likely to de-
termine speedily and once for all the
most economical method of reducing
the many thousands of tons of low
grade ores left in the slopes and in
the gaub by the early operators who
could profitably handle nothing but
high grade ore. His experimentation
was carried on at the experimental
sampling works of Henry +. Woods
at Denver, Colo. A carload of Aus
tin ores was forwarded to him some
months ago by Superintendent Lit
trell. making 1t possible to prove by
mill runs all the processes worked
out.
The first idea of the owners of the
big company was to get away from
the panama. gamation system in the
local mill which by experience has
proved very satisfactory but too exr
pensive for the lower grades of ore.
In general terms the process ar
rived at by Mr.. Boley puts the ore
through new combination of crush
ing, re-grinding. concentrating and
cyaniding operations. The process
also involves special method of con-
trolling the shines. This latter point
is of the greatest importance, as II
is calculated TO protect the values in
the shines. The loss which in the
past varied from s. to Sc per ton. is
now reduced to a minimum
The company officials are sanguine
that they have arrived at the cheap
est reduction method in use i'm the
state of Nevada They will be able
TO treat $40 ore at a comfortable
margin OF profit

inence of political subjects last week
kept attention in the financial dis
trict, as well as elsewhere, focused
on that point. The most notable eff
feet perceptible in the securities mar
ket was the repression of all large
and important activities and the
adoption of a waiting attitude on
the present larger capital interests.
Dealings were made up of personal
operations, and these of the smaller
class, and the price movement in con-
sequence was inclined to turn often
within a restricted range, indicating
the tentative nature of the transac-
lions and their failure to bring out
any substantial response such as
would give them power of extension
Professional sentiment was sensi-
tive To the hourly news from the
transactions of the Republican con-
vention at Chicago and vacillated as

gressiveness in pursuit of corpora

radical tendencies in that direction

financial and railroad world helped TO
keep alive this opinion. The de-
mand for securities was unimportant
at all times. nor was there any no.
table selling to give lines on the con-
victions of securities holders.
The waiting policy of the specula-
ton was confirmed by the balance of
some contending features in the gen
eral situation of affairs. While some
of the immediate contending features
in the general situation of affairs.
While some of the immediate condi-
tons were of an uncheerful import
the undertone was one of confidence
in future improvement.
Unfavorable weather conditions in
a part of the winter wheat belt were
taken due notice Of but the opinion
of authorities in the grain trade that
the promise of the yield was not yet
materially prejudiced served as an
offset. Railroad traffic officials gave
voice to their confidence in crop
prospects and the ultimate favorable
freight movement and on general
business, even while admitting the
present contraction of their traffic.
