 The suit is in equity and follows an offer of compromise made by the officials of the companies to the gov ernment. which provided for the dropping of criminal suits and the grand jury investigation now being conducted in Los Angeles.

Also a Score of Others Are Seriously Injured in Aw- full Wreck on the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Road.
ENGINE CRASHED
 INTO SLEEPER
Carelessness of an Employe is Responsible for Terri ble Loss of Life at Minne- sota Way Station Tester day.

ODESSA, Minn., Dec. 1S.-Twelve are dead and d score or more seriously injured as the result of d silk train on the Chicago, Milwaukee x St. Paul road. running as section No. of the Columbian flyer, crashing into the rear sleeper of the flyer at the sta tion here early today. The engine of the silk special ploughed five feet into the sleeper, but the greatest loss of live was in the front sleeper, which was telescoped by the dining car just ahead.
 Long after the dead had been taken from the debris, wreckers found late today two bodies in the crumpled sleeper literally cut to pieces. Identi- fication of these was impossible. AL though both the iner and sleeper were of steel, the former sheared the upper portion of the sleeper from the floor as if made of cardboard. In some manner the diner floor became raised slightly above the floor of the sleeper.
 By the impact, section No. 2's engine behind the sleeper. was jammed along fully 25 feet, while the diner looked as though a gigantic knife had cut away the upper structure.
 Responsibility for the wreck was not determined definitely. but is said to rest between the operator at OrtOn- vile Junction. who. it is asserted. should not have permitted the silk train to enter the block, and the Oper- ator who. it K said. failed to lift the stop signal for the flyer. and the flag man of the flyer. who. it is said, failed tO protect the rear of his train after it stopped at the block Of all those in the sleeper, but two escaped with out injury.
 C. F. Schuster. a jackie" on the United States battleship West Vir- ginia. on his way home to Toledo. O.. on furlough. was conspicuous in the work of rescue. Nearly all the injured were taken to Minneapolis. and many of them continued on their way.

ANOTHER JOB

RENO. Dec. 1S.-The Lyon county court house at Yer ington was blown up by dy- namite at f o'clock Sunday morning. The loss will be sev- eral thousand dollars. The eX- plosive was placed under the concrete walls in the interior and the entire second floor fell to the ground. No arrests have been made.
 The court house was unoc- cupied at the time. That dy- namite was used was proven by the discovery of a long piece of fuse leading from the wrecked building. The build ing was closed early in the evening by the watchman. but the lock was forced by the dy- namiters, who used an iron bar. The building was in course of erection. The con tract price was $35,000.

CALLS GOVERNOR
SCANDAL MONCER
Michigan State Senator Re-
plies to Attack of Ex-
ecutive of State.

Lansing, March 1S.-Declaring that
Governor Chase S. Osborne is an in
teiectual gymnast with an acrobatic
vocabulary masquarading as chief ex-
ecutive of this state" and calling him
a scandal scavenger who delves into
the garbage barrels of the past" state
senator James A. Murtha OF Detroit,
Democrats minority leader and for
mer Tammany lieutenant in New
York, who was assailed by the chief
executive a few days ago, came back
with a retort Wednesday.
Friends of the Democratic senator
were hoping he would be able TO de-
liver the speech from the floor of the
upper house. but some of the parii-
mentarians of the administration bus
led themselves and found rulings that
would prevent Murtha from rising 10
a point of personal privilege and re-
plying TO the governors attack.
Gives Statement in Interview
Determined that he public should
know his side of the story, Senator
Murtha gave out his intended speech
in the nature of an interview. He as
serted that the Dctroi polio depart
ment never had received orders to
watch him and that Gov. Osborne s
statement that he had not returned to
New York since he was disbarred
here is false.
Mr.. Murtha charges that the COVER
nor took action against him because
he opposed certain appointments and
demanded that the chief executive
present proofs that Lawton T. Hem
ans. the Democratic candidate for the
governorship at the last election, had
received money from the state ille'
gally. as was charged during the last
campaign.
Heman's name was presented to the
senate for confirmation as the Dem
ocratic member of the state railroad
commission. At that time Murtha
called the governor political Gag,
liostro." In concluding his statement
the state senator says:
The governor has become AFRO
CANT since assuming the power and

one with having concurrent jurisdic-
tion with Providence, but unfortunate
! ly has become partisan instead of a
patriot.
"Behind Mask Of Pharisees."
He has hidden behind the mask of

instead of adhering to principles. His
lust for power has deadened whatever
Christian spirit he had, and to main
tain himself in political power he
would resort to any end. He has built
