her way to the house Of her
friend and in crossing the tracks
the caboose suddenly backed up,
knocking her to the ground, the
wheels passing over both feet,
mangling them so that amputa-

Mrs. Refs also had a narrow
escape from serious injury, be-

beyond a few bruises and the
shock, was not badly hurt.

Early Monday morning be-

CROP FOR
OKLAHOMA
Special TO The Daily Leader.

Special 10 The Daily Leader.
Oklahoma City, July 2.-That Ok
lahoma will have one of the biggest
peach crops in its history this year
but that the price will be about the
lowest, is the information received
by the state board OF agriculture
from over the state. From every
part of the state where peaches are
raised the reports are flattering as
to the yield and quality but the
same story OF poor prospects for
satisfactory market is heard from
every section. So far there have
teen no arrangements by buyers TO
handle any considerable part OF the
Oklahoma crop.
John C. Elliot, member of the
board Of agriculture, who has 5000
trees that will yield the largest and
best crop ever taken from the or
chard, disposed OF his entire crop
early at 75 cents per bu6nel on the
trees. Now the buyer has offeregdl
him $500 to cancel the contract. He
tears that he will lose mohey at
he price agreed upon, as the pres
mt prospects are very poor for
narketinlg the crop at anything like
a satisfactory price.

(By Associated press.l }

Washington. July 2.-Senator
Works OF California, progressive re.
publican, preseR1ed in the senate
Monday a resolution to investigate
recent campaign expenditures, de-
claring that President Tafts re-
nomination had heen procured un-
Justly and illegally. California need
ed no new party, he said, and the
republican party might better 90
down to defeat for the sins of its
leaders and come up four years
hence than to form a new party.
Senator Wonks said his resolution
was based on charges publicly made
by President Tai. and former Pres
tdent Roosevelt.
The resolution declares VT is com
mon knowledge that public official
from the president, cabinet officers
and senators down, have engaged in
the pre-convention campaign.
1t directs investigation OF the fl
nancial transactions of democratic
and republican candidates for the
presidential nomination, calls for
names of officials engaged in the
campaign and their salaries, the
percentage of voters in the primar
les and payments to newspapers
and newspaper writers and the
amount of expenses of delegates
paid by others.
The resolution was not acted up-
on. Mr., Works charged that men
sent to Washington to discharge
public duties had been giving their
.ime to carrying on political cam
paigns.
