the astounding discovery was made
that only 60 of the lGS pages Of the
bill HAD been considered.

scolded them soundly, and they de

Democratic side breathed a sigh o
relief
But hardly had the Thompson

sentative Mendell, of Wyoming
leaped into the breach. The mem

KILLED WHEN AUTO

MADISON HOTEL PROPRIETOR
DEAD AND ANOTHER is
FATALLY INJURED.
TRAIN CREW FINDS WRECK
Car Driven Over Fifty-Foot Bridge at
Night Leaves Road at Sharp
Turn-Thick Fog Believed Re-
sponsibe for Accident.

Madison. One man was Killed and
another probably fatally injured when
an automobile in which they were rid
ing went over fifty foot embankment
and rolled onto the Chicago q North
western tracks, where it was struck
by train.
Carl Thorstad, proprietor OF the
Northwestern hotel of Madison, was
pinned under the car and died in
stantly. Albert Lee, Marshall, who
was employed in Thorstads hotel, is
dying in the General hospital here,
where he was brought following the
accident Both his legs are broken
and he Is internally injured. Physt
clans hold out no hope for his re-
covery.
The accident occurred near Mendo-
Ia, about a mile north OF here a thick
fog is believed to have been respon-
sible for the tragedy.
Apparently the machine was going
at a high rate of speed. The road at
this point is narrow, and after cross
ing high bridge over the railroad
tracks there is a sharp turn, The
driver of the car was either unfamil-
lar with the road or was blinded by
fog
The accident was discovered by the
crew of Northwestern train No. 5O2
when the engine struck the automo-
bile. The train was stopped.
