result of that accident. He is now in

is believed he is suffering from a rup-
ture of the liver

grown that Chauncey Dewey, by whom
he was employed as foreman. has

Wilson was not caught beneath the

was thrown from the car when the
two right wheels slid off the embank-
ment and at that time il was
thought that the fact that he
was thrown instead of caught I'M

not serious injury. He seemed to be
little injured until noon after the ac-
cident.
Shortly after the noon hour. how

condition has steadily grown worse.
He was removed to a hospital the next
day and since that time has remained
there. Physicians seem to find moth

WALLS WITH HEAD
Negress Has Kew Method for Curing
Her Headaches.

Probably the most remarkable meth
Cd of curing headache on record Is
that used by Matte Troy, negress, heId
to answer the charge of poisoning
how in her charge to get his life in
surance. The woman strikes her head
against the steel walls of her cell with
terrific force several times daily. she
declares it IS to stop the pains in her
head and thai as soon as the jar be-
gins to hurt her head the ache van
iShes.
Officers were inclined to think that
she did it to give them the impression
she was trying to commit suicide, but
she says they are wrong. She declares
she will take her own life and that she
will not live for trial. AS she Is IN
nearly the same condition as Mrs.
Evans, who died Monday morning, it
is likely that she will make good her
threat But the humping sound
which startles the prisoners at the jail
is only the negro woman taking her
headache treatment.

ON MRS. EVANS
One Will Be Held at O'clock To-

really starved herself to death. or
whether death was due to other causes
DR.. H. H. Keith. coroner of Shawnee
county, will hold an autopsy at the
Bomgardner undertaking rooms at 8
o'clock tomorrow morning The de-
mand that an autopsy be held over the
remains of the woman has been so
great, according to DIR. Keith, that an
effort will be made to ascertain Just
what did cause her DEATH
The body of the woman has been
held at the undertaking establishment
since Monday morning, but no one has
claimed it. In case relatives or friends
do not claim it. the Sisters of Charity.
1t is said, will arrange for the funeral

GEO. GOULD TESTIFIES.
Says Hartman Would Not Let Him
Buy Southern Pacific.

New York, April George ]. Gould
was called as a witness for the govern
nlent in rebuttal at today's hearing OF
the government suit for the dissolution
of the Union Pacific and Southern Pa
cific merger. Mr.. Gould testified he did
not attempt to acquire the Southern
Pacific in competition with f. H. Har-
riman.
In the fall of 1900 he said he sug-
gested to Mr.. Hartman that in case the
latter should not care to purchase the
Southern Pacific stock then held by the
Huntington estate that he. Mr.. Gould,
would like to purchase it if Mr.. Harr1-
man had no objection. After the pur-
chase by Mr.. Hartman of the stock
Mr.. Gould said. he sought to obtain
half interest. but failed.
When he sought control of the Dem
YER 6. Rio Grande, Mr.. Gould said, Mr..
Hartman asked him to sell half in
terest to him. but Mr.. Gould declined.
On cross-examination Mr.. Gould said
Mr.. Hartman had told him he was ap-
prehensive lest the Northwestern road
should build from Black Hills to Og-
den and gain control of the Southern
Pacific. He also had an idea that the
Burlington might be thinking OF at
tempting to acquire the road.
George Niles, secretary of the late
Coils P Huntington, testified he never
heard of any negotiations initiated by
Mr.. Hartman to arrange dehn1te rela-
irons with Mr.. Huntington between the
Union Pacific and the Southern PACING
and for the purchase of the Central Pa
ciffc as a separate property But ne
said he considered it possible, in view
of the testimony of Otto H. Kuhn, or
Kuhn, Loeb & Co.. that Mr.. Hartman
might have conducted such negotiations
without his knowledge, although he was
Intimately acquainted with the analrs
of Mr.. Huntington.
