MAN FROM REDLANDS ASKS
STREET RAILWAY FRANCHISE
Says Work Will Be Started Within
Six Months and Finished
Within Year

SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. IA
new electric street railway project was
launched mast night at the meeting of
considerable surprise by the officials.
Fred Durham of Redlands desires a
franchise to extend from Third and
E street north along f to Sixth, west
on Sixth to Mt. Vernon and north on
Mt. Vernon to Base Line.
The members of the council were in
clined to question the intentions of the
Redlands man and the matter was
finally referred to committee of the
whole for investigation. Mr.. Durham
stated he was willing to show his hand
and to inform the board of the entire
details if necessary, provided 1t was
possible to secure the assurance that
he would get the franchise.
Mr.. Durham stated that If the fran
chise was granted work would be start
ed within six months and the line
would be in operation within a year
from the date it was sold
The proposed route is practically the
same as that which was some months
ago talked of to connect with either
Huntington's line now building towards
this city or an independent line to
Rialto, which project failed to ma
terilize.
The applicant for the franchise stat
ed that unless action was taken within
ten days he would withdraw his petit
tion for the sale of the proposed right
of way.

SANTA Fl ENGINEER
IS INJURED FATALLY
LIVES TWELVE HOURS WITH
BODY BAKED
John Wool Pinned Under Wrecked
Locomotive, Where Steam Literally
Cooks Flesh-Fireman Is
Hurt Severely
Especial to The Herald,l

SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. 17-Afte1
living with his body literally baked for
twelve hours, John Wool, a Santa Fe
engineer. died this morning at Victor
VILE as he was being rushed to the
hospital at Los Angeles with his fire.
man. the two men having been caught
beneath their locomotive as it plunged
into a washout on the Barnwell branch
near Vontrigger, a small station nine
miles north of Goffs.
The fatal accident occurred in Lud-
low cut the scene of a number of dis
astrous wrecks during the past few
years. The track was washed out on
a curve, and although Wool was run
ming his engine at a slow rate of speed
he was unable to bring 1t to STOP
before it plunged over the bank. The
locomotive turned over before the en-
gineer or the fireman could leap tc
safety, pinning the two men under the
wreckage, where a cloud of scalding
steam played on them until they were
rescued by the trainmen who hastened
to their aid.
With the exception of a few inches
on his feet. where the flesh was pro-
tected by heavy shoes, there was moi
a spot on Wools body which was not
completely baked. Physicians are un-
able to account for the fact that he
lived such a length of time after the
accident. The shock of his injuries was
such that the entire nerve system was
paralyzed, relieving the unfortunate
man of untold agonies. He was con
scious for a number of hours after the
accident.
The fireman, w. Manseau in addition
to a severe scalding, was injured 9TH
erwise. and 1t is doubtful if he will live
The injured men were rushed to Lud-
low on a special train and placed
aboard a "stub" of the regular over
land for the hospital. Wool lived until
daybreak this morning, when he passed
away as the train was nearing Victor
vile.
The dead engineer was formerly a
resident of this city, but for the past
nine years has been employed on the
Arizona division of the Santa Fe, and
was ranked as one of the best en-
gineers on the road. He is survived by
a wife and three children. The funeral
will be held tomorrow afternoon. Wool
was a member of the Masons knights
of Pythias and the Brotherhood OF
Locomotive Engineers.

FEARS BOYS WHO RENTED
BOAT HAVE BEEN DROWNED
Captain E. Cary Does Not Believe
Youths Are Those Who Escaped
from Whittier Camp

LONG BEACH, Aug. 1.-Two boys
who rented a rowboat from Capt. e.
Cary at Alamitos bay last Friday have
not been seen since, and the fear grows
that they went through the inlet into
the open sea and were drowned.
Neither wore Whittier reform
school uniform, so Capt. Cary does not
believe the young men were the two
who escaped from the reform schOol
camp at Catalina island.
After hunting along the beach yes
terday and today for the boat or signs
of the boys, Cary said tonight he was
no nearer a solution of the problem
than before. The boat was blue and
bore the number five"
The only description secured was that
the boys appeared to be Is or II years
old. One wore a light suit of clothes
and the other a dark suit. There have
been no inquiries for them by relatives.
