Young Engineer Ground
to Pieces
Beneath the Cruel Wheels Of an
N. & w. Train--Head Was
Carried SO Miles.

Boyd Patterson, c. & o. en-
gineer, was killed by an N. S w.
train at the Kenova Union station
early Friday morning and his body
mangled in such condition that
made 1t almo tunreconizable.
Mr.. Patterson was employed at
Russell, Ky aud had been home
on visit. He went to the station
late Thursday night with the
intention, it is presumed, of
catching a train for Ironton,
o., and there cross the river to
Russell.
1t is stated that he and the en-
gineer OH N. e w. passenger train
No. 3 engaged in conversation
while the train was standing at
the station and Boyd informed
the engineer that he intended go
ing 10 lronton on that train. It !s
also stated that the engineer saw
MIR. Patterson get on, or attempt to
get on, the train as 1T pulled out.
But as the mangled remains of Mr..
Patterson were found short time
afterward, it is presumed by many
that instead of getting on the train
he missed the hsndholds and fell
beneath the wheels.
Others think he sat down on
the platform alongslde the track
and went to sleep, while a few
are inclined to the belief that he
was murdered and his body then
placed on the track.
One arm and leg were severed
from the body, while the head
and a portion Of the shoulders
were discovered dangling from the
machinery Of a freight train az it

D6l6gdte SPRINGS Sensation.

Charleston, w Va, Jan. 24.-
A real, genuine, old.fashioned SEN
sation was sprung in the legislature
today when Delegate Hubbard, Of
Ohio county, and Delegate Robin.
son, OF Harrison county, both Dem
ocrats, charged that Clarence Wat.
son, the caucus nominee of the
Democrats for the short term, had
secured his nomination through brl-
berry and corruption, and announced
that he would not abide by the eau.
Gus pledges IN his case. On the
ballot that followed, eleven Demo
Gratis failed, or refused, TO cast their
votes for Watson. In the Senate
Watson received SIX votes out of
;he sixteen cast in that body.
w. K. Chiffon also lost some of
the caucus votes when it came to
balloting Tor the long term senator.
In the Senate he received five out
of the sixteen votes recorded as
cast, while in the House be failed
to poll the full strength of the Dem.
ocrats in that body by five votes.
The result of the charges made
by Delegates Hubbard and Robin
son cannot be foreca.ted aud there
Is much speculation as to wha, the
hnal outcome may be.

IN turn informed the train crew
upon their arrival at the latter
place. The head had almost been
worn away by coming in contact
with the ties and other objects dur
ing its perilous journey up Twelve

their fifteen Democratic brethren,
the fifteen Republican senators
filed into the senate cham Der at
Oh arleston last Saturday after
noon and the dove of peace cheer
ully fitted about the chamber,
while the olive branch swung to
and fro like the pendulum of a
mighty clock.
The senatorial turmoil, which
for a time threatened the peace
and dignity of the state, was end =
ed Saturday afternoon by each
side making CONCESSIONS.
The first feature after the Re-
publicans arrived in the senate
chamber came when Senator Kidd
announced the election of presi.
dent in order. 1t being previous
ly arranged, DR.. H. D. Hatfield
was placed iii nomination and
elected by an unanimous vote.
The newly elected president was
escorted to the rostrum amid loud
and long applause.
About the on!y concession made
by the Republicans was in letting
their opponents select the Repub-
lican president. After it was
learned the Democrats desired to
name DR.. Hatfield, the Republi-
cans readily acquiesced, and the
tomahawk was buried and the
warriors took pull at tie pipe of
peace.
The committees aud attaches
are 10 be equally divided between
the two parties.
The Democrats agreed to let
Hearne take bis seat and to refer
the Caldwell contest 10 the com.
mlttee on privileges and elections.
They are also to drop the contes.
against Senator White Of Mingo
county.
In the election Of DR.. Hatfield
for president Of the senate this
district has been given an honor.
The doctor is a good parIiameno
tartan, and while he will be en-
abled to decide all points of order,
he has the manhood to deal fairly
with his opponents. He is that
