NJ. 4. Low Thrown to Pavement
and Bruised Badly.
Unknown Teamster Did Not
Stop After the Accident.
HIS WRIST is BROKEN,
Other Bruises on Face and Chest
Are Painful.
Rock Island Attorney Was Wait.
ing for Street Car.

AT o'clock this morning, while
standing on the corner of Tenth and
Kansas avenues waiting for a North
Topeka street car, M. A. Low, general
attorney for the Chicago, Rock Island
& Pacific railway, was struck by Ahe
tongue of big truck wagon ana
thrown to the pavement with great
force. The fall and the blow, struck
the railroad attorney unconscious and
he was removed to his home at once
under the care of physicians.
1t was found upon examination that
his left wrist was broken, his chest
was bruised and torn, and both sides
of his face were scratched and bruised
Some ribs may be broken. The injuries
were painful and Mr.. Low will remain
under care of the doctors for some
time before he will be able to attend
to his office duties.
1t is not known who drove the wagon
or what wagon it was that hit Mr.
Low this morning. The few bystanders
at the time rushed to the rescue of the
attorney and picking him up they CALI
ed an ambulance and cared for his
wounds until it arrived. The driver IF
drove out of sight down Kansas ave
nue. as fast as he could whip his
horses.
At the time no attempt was made to
obtain his name or the owner of the
wagon and team and since the accident
no one has surrendered such informa-
ton. From the nature of the accident
Mr.. Low feared first that it was a
motor car accident but was positive
later that the pole of a big truck
wagon struck him in the side and
threw him to the pavement.
DR.. Mum is attending Mr.. Low and
reports this afternoon that he expects
nothing serious to develop from the
bruises. The broken wrist has been
set and it is thought that it is but a
question of time until this heals. The
bruises on the face and chest have
been cared for thoroughly and no fear
of blood poison is entertained.

VICTORY FOR MINERS.
The Long Strike in the Southwestern
Field Has Been Settled.

Kansas City, Sept. 19-At meeting
which ended at $50 o'clock last night,
the representatives of the miners in the
southwestern field ratified the agree
ment made with the operators and will
resume work Tuesday.
The contract as it now stands is said
to be a victory for the miners.
According to the new agreement, the
miners receive an increase of 5.35 per
cent on day work, dead work and yard
age. They also receive an increase of
cents a ton on shooting coal and an
increase of cents a ton on long wall
work.
The arbitration clause was finally
settled by an agreement to leave all
future differences to w. L. A. johnson,
labor commissioner of Kansas for set
Element. The penalization clause pro-
videS that when the operators close a
mine they shall pay the men one dollar
a day during the time it is closed and
the miners agree to pay the operators
so cents per day for the time they cause
mine to be closed.
When work is resumed on Tuesday
morning 1t will end a strike that began
| more than five months ago and to set
| tie which several conferences have been
| held. The last conference began here
more than two weeks ago and at times
it appeared that a settlement could not
| be reached.
In many of the districts of the south
western field, it is said, the miners and
| their families are in want. In the ma
| Jorfty of sections the merchants have
| extended credit to the men, but at the
| last conference they insisted that the
! strike be settled

FUEL ALARMS KANSAS.
Shortage of Natural Gas Prospect for
Topeka and Other Cities.

Prospects of a shortage in natural
gas which is piped to Kansas from the
fields of northern Oklahoma is viewed
with alarm by persons living in TWEEN
ty-f1ve of the larger cities and towns in
Kansas. The promises held out by the
managers of the Kansas Natural Gas
company are not assuring as in the
last year, the gas fields of southern
Kansas have proven insufficient for
the heavy drain by the big pipe lines
that supply Topeka, the two Kansas
Citys, Lawrence, st. Joseph, Atchison,
Leavenworth, Wichita, Hutchinson and
intermediate towns along their route
General Manager McBeth of the
Kansas Natural Gas company, in a re-
cent statement, said that while the
supply to draw from will be greater
than ever before, it would be well for
all those who depend upon gas for
heating and cooking to have an emer-
gency supply of fuel on hand. The
farther natural gas is transported the
greater the probabilities of a pipe line
trouble, and Mr.. McBeth said he could
not guarantee against blowouts sad
