ed in this city, was the stranger who
lost his life in the wreck on the Rock
Island road yesterday morning at
Green, Iowa. Ruge was stealing a
8 ride. Letters found in his clothes
showed that he had been making his
home of late in Albert Lea, Mimi. he
was 80 years of age.
Ruge went from here as a member
of Company A in the Spanish-Amer
lean war and is remembered by Il
number of the boys who served il
the company in that year. After tn"
return of the company from the front
he left the city, and little has been
known of his whereabouts since.
The remains will be brought here
for interment. Who is arranging COZ
his funeral is not known, the only
information that has been received
here being a telegram from a Green
undertaken to Undertaken B. F. Knox
that the body would be shipped to
Rock IslaPd. Ruge has no known
relatives in this city. Ruge was in
stantly killed. Six others were in
jured.
All Thrown in Ditch.
So far as can be ascertained the
wreck or derailmenJ was caused by
something dragging on either the en-
CINE or the mail car and striking the
switch point which caused part of the
train to go down the passing track
and which completely derailed the
entire train throwing all the cars and
the engine in the ditch. Two rails
were driven clear through the boiler
of the engine, indicating the force of
the impact. The train was running
80 to 40 miles an hour. The tender
and cab were thrown over the en-
CINE. The mail car and baggage car
were totally wrecked, but the two
Pullnans were scarcely injured. None
of the coaches were telescoped, being
thrown out sidewise and this doubt
less saved the lives of many. The
day coaches were badly damaged.
