Former Place in Charge of Fort

in management Of the Brownsville
road and also of the New Orleans,
Texas C Mexico road, slated to take
place today will not become effective
for several days. Under the new
order j. III. Elliott, who has been in
charge of these lines. with head
quarters at Houston, will change
places with ]. S. Pyeatt, who has
been general manager of the Fort
Worth and Rio Grande, with head
quarters at Fort Worth.
Mr.. Pyeatt is expected to come to
Houston to take charge of the lines
which have been under Mr.. Elliott's
supervision, while Mr.. Elliott will go
to Fort Worth to take Mr.. Pyeatt' s
place, just as soon as the exshange
can be effected. The exchange is
said to have been made in accord
ance with the policy of the Frisco
to have its managers familiar with
as much as possible of the Frisco
territory
Mr. Elliott has only been in charge
of the Brownsville line since last
winter, though he had been general
manager of the New Orleans, Texas
and Mexico for five years,
Mr.. Pyeatt has been with the Frisco
lines for many years. with the ex-
ception Of a short period. when he
was connected with the Grand
Trunk.

circles. Mr.. Elliott is considered 8
very able manager, and he speaks in
very complimentary terms Of his
successor.

ENGINE WATCHMAN
LOSES HIS RIGHT LEG
Crushed Off Below the Knee in Col
lision Between Engine and Freight
Car in Local Yards.

Fred Fernando engine watchman
on the st. l.. b. & M. railway suffer-
ed a very painful injury which re-
suited in the loss Of his right leg,
Tuesday morning about 1915, by an
engine on which he was riding back
ing into some freight cars, in the
local freight yards.
Engine No. ? of the midnight
train, after arriving in the yards was
backing along the north end Of the
river track near the stock corral, to
take oil. Fernandez was on the back
md of the engine with lantern to
notify the engineer if the track was
clear, but for some reason, failed TO
see the freight cars which were
standing on the same track, and the
engine backed into the cars. Fer
nandez was pinned between the sill
of the oil tank and the end Of the
freight car, where he was held until
the engine was moved forward.
1t was then discovered by the en-
gineer that Fernadez' right leg had
been crushed between the engine and
the car. DR.. H. L. D. Kirkham, the
railroad surgeon was Immediately
summoned and Fernandez was
| r,,rhad N thn hncnitaJ
The cause of the accident Is not
definitely explained, but it is sup
posed that the engine came upon the
cars before Fernandez realized it
II Is also said that he had been suf-
fering with pain in his side and il
lis thought that this may have caused
him not to see the cars.
The unfortunate mans right les
was found to be almost completed.
