SEEK DAMAGES
+. FROM RAILROAD D
BURLINGTON COMPANY Is DE-
PENDANT IN TWO ACTIONS b..
FOR $4,000.

Two damage suits were filed Satur-
day against the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy railroad company for DAM
ages. Willard Mingus, brakeman
who suffered injuries at Abba In De-
cember, seeks $4,000, and Della
Gates, administrators, asks the court
to allow her $4,000 for the death OF
her husband, John Gates.
The Mingus petition relates that
the plaintiff was employed as brake
man for the company and while
switching cars at Abba on December
10. 1912, he stumbled and his right
foot was mashed to such an extent
that amputation was necessary. he
charges the company with being re-
sponsible for dangerous and haz-
ardous place to work" and that the
slan1ing track crossings" were not
sufficiently protected. The petitioner
declares he is thirty-four years old
and had been making an average OF
500 per month, and ne Is no" per-
manently injured.
In the Gates suit, the claim is
made that the Burlington route Is at
fault for not having a f1agman or au-
tomato bell at Oakridge crossing,
and that proper warning OF the ap-
preaching train was not given. 1t is
set forth in the petition that John
Gates came to his death on Novem-
Der IS, 1912, when, in attempting to
avoid train No. IS, he stepped IN
front of train No. 2139.
