DIR. BLAKE OF JOHNSTOWN
POkES HEAD THROUGH GLASS
IN DENVER-LARAMIE COACH,
CUTTING NECK BADLY

Johnstown, July IS. - Thinking
that closed window on Denver
Laramie railroad coach was open
DR.. w. G. Blake stuck his head
through the glass and cut his face
and head severely yesterday when
he was on the way to Denver.
DR.. Blake boarded the train at
station near here. After the train
had gone about five miles it brought
up with a jerk. The conductor ana
brakeman got out to see what was
the matter. The trouble seemed to
be located underneath the coach
in which DR.. Blake was sitting, and
upon the opposite side of the cap.
DR.. Blake rushed over to an opposite
window, thought that the window
was open and stuck his head out.
With a crash the glass came rain
ing down upon him. The sharp
edges OF che glass cut him severely
around the neck, narrowly missing
the jugular vein. Instead OF with
drawing his head DR.. Blake waited
until passengers broke the glass
from around his neck This saved
him from further injury.
DR.. Blake bandaged his own
wounds and continued on to Den
yer.
He says that it is a good thns
for the railroad company to keep
their windows clean, but believes
that there should be sign dis
played telling whether the windows
are open o. closed.

ESTES ALLEGED TRUST
1t Is believed that the action be-
gun against the lumber trust WAS
started by testimony that was In
troduce<l in the defense Of E. J..
Estes, the former county commits
sioner who was sent to tho peniten-
tfary for forgery. Before the case
collapsed through the confession OF
the chief witness, the attorneys for
the defense announced that they
the lumber dealers of Weld county
existed whereby il was impossible
for the county to buy the lumber It
/ ded "a
price dictated by the trust.
Estes alleged that he bought lum-
her secretly to save money for the
county, but the collapse of his case
suddenly prevented any testimony
along this line being brought out at
this trial.
The grand jury is still in session
and it is rumOred may bring in a
number Of criminal indictments at
any time. The action brought
against the lumber dealers is civil
in character, and is not in the form
that indictments alleging criminal
ity are brought.
The injunction prayed for is state
wide and being brought by the at
torney general of the state may be
u fOrerunner of others Of u similar
nature.
Il Inc sweeping cnaFSeS DrOi&ht uy
the grand jury against the lumber
dealers crashed through the city
like bomb shell. The prominence
of the men in the Greeley companies
accused makes the case one OF great
intesest, especially since there hal
been more or less talk Of a comba'
nation among the lumber dealers IL
Weld county for several years.
The grand jury was summoned
May 70 and sworn in May 20. TIT
jury is composed Of the following
men:
