dead man is the Ed Carlson. who for
merly worked here and at Sioux City
with him, that he is willing to stake
almost anything on it.
Altho benson has no other informa-
ton of Carlson's death than what he
read regarding it In the Times epub-
lican, he is positive that the dead man
and the Ed Carlson he knows SO we'll
are one and the same.
Formerly Worked For Central.
An Ed Carlson was employed by the
Iowa Central here for seven or eight
years. He worked with other section
laborers in the yards. and at one time
was foreman. Last summer he left the
company's employ. and it Is not known
where he went, but it is presumed that
he returned to Sioux City. He came
here from that city, where he had been
employed for number Of years with
benson.
Carlson was killed while he and his
friend were carelessly handling a re-

before dying made the statement that
