EIGHT KILLED IN
MAINE RAIL WRECK
Smoking Car Tslsseopsd whsa
Trains Collide

Grindstone. Me, July 30.-Eight per.
sons are dead and fourteen seriously
injured az the result Of head-on COL
lision which occurred at the Bangor
and Aroostock railroad station here.
The trains were special of three
light coaches. containing about $50
excursionists, and a regular passenger
express.
Five of the dead were passengers of
the excursion train. The other three
included the two firemen and the en-
gineer of the special. The five pas
sengers killed and all of the injured
were in the smoking car directly be-
hind the engine of the excursion.
Both trains were moving slowly, one
of them just pulling out of the station
and the other slowing for siding
where the trains were to have passed.
The accident appears to have been
due to a misunderstanding of orders.
None of the cars left the rails and
the passengers on the regular train
escaped with a slight shaking up.
Grindstone is a small settlement of
not more than fifty persons, with no
facilities for the care of the injured.
They were cared for temporarily by
physicians on board the trains and
placed on special train and taken
to Millinocket.

In fighting to keep the blood pure
the white corpuscles attack desease
germs like tigers. But often germs
multiply 90 fast tho slittle fighters are

Square Garden is in the market and

rectors says they have carried on the

up the responsibility. II is New York's

X. Sturgis of the garden company

"The land is worth the price we ask

young men could take over the proper

ment."
Very often il has been suggested
that the city should buy the garden.

LEHTo's ARM INJURED.
Member Badly Wrenehed in First Fall
Secured by Gotch.

Concerning the Gotch-Lehto match
at Duluth the other night, the Duluth
Herald says:
Frank A. Gotch. champion of them
all. last night defeated Karl Lehto, the
Finnish champion, in three straight
falls, securing the three falls i'm TWEEN
ty-two minutes, thereby winning the
handicap match with plenty of time to
spare.
In the first bout the champion Sc
verely wrenched Lehto's arm. The fall
came when Gotch twisted the Firms
arm into a hammerlock and then
clamped on a lot of pressure to turn
Karl Lehto refused to turn. but his
arm did and with a cry of pain he gave
up the first fall
1t may have been that Lehto was
suffering intense pain from the injury
and 1t may have been that he was
afraid of Gotch who has the reputa-
tion of handling men in no gentle man
ner. only during the second bout did
Lehto show any of the ability that he
has shown in his other matches this
winter. He squirmed and wrigged
away from several bad holds, bridged
out of hammerlock and managed TO
get away from combination crotch
and half Nelson. The end was newt
able. however. for Gotch had that old
habit of forcing his man from one hold
to another. and no sooner would Lehto
get away from one hold than he would
turn into another one.
Gotch secured n combination ham,
merlock and body hold and pinned
Lehto's shoulders to the mat, Karl
claiming to his manager that his arm
had been severely injured and that he
was unable to use 1t. The Finn
thought his arm was broken. but an
examination showed that his muscles
had been severely wrenched and that
the pain came from the strain only.
Lehto could not put up very much
resistance to Gotch in the third fall,
though he struggled to best of his abil-
ity to stave off impending defeat.
Gotch was after Lehto like fash and
there wasn't chance in the world to
get away from the giant from Iowa,
who held Lehto i'm that vice-like grip
that has spelled defeat for other wrest =
lers. and forced him to the mat.

TRYING TWO DAMAGE SUITS
IN COURT AT MARQUETTE

Attorney p. II. O'Brien left yesterday
for Marquette where he is engaged in
conducting two personal damage suits
before Judge Flanagan in the circuit
court.
The suits are being brought by Sam
uel Hosking against the Oliver Iron
mining company, and Solomon Risku
against the Iron Gin company. Both
suits are brought under the personal
injury law, and each of the complain
ants are claiming damages to the
amount of $4,000. II is singular, too,
that each of the compliments lost a
leg, incurred, it is alleged, while work.
ing for the respective companies.
The cases were heard before Judge
Cooper some months ago, sitting in the
place of Judge Stone, but were not al
lowed to reach the jury, the sitting
directing that a verdict i'm favor of the
mining companies be returned in each
instance.
Attorney O'Brien took the cases to
the Supreme court, where ii was held
that the cases should have been al
| lowed TO reach the jury, and re-tria
ordered i'm each case. These re-trials
are taking place now in Judge Flani-
CAMS court, and the outcome will be
awaited with interest
