started in the Story county district
court under the federal employers liza
bility act, in which Mrs. c. E. Ross, OF
Ontario, brings action against the Des
Moines. Fort Dodge & Southern Rail-
way Company, in which she claims
damages in the sum of $4,000 for the
death of her son, C. c. Ross, who was
electrocuted while employed as a line
man by the defendant company.

employers liability act and was dis
missed.
Ross and a man named Mandus We're
working together and Ross was on a
thirty foot pole. Below the wires Of
the company were string Of wires be-
longing to the Postal Telegraph Com
pany. The company wires We're carry
ing 1900 volts Of electricity and as
Ross started to fall he came in contact
with the telegraph wires, which caused
the voltage of the heavier wire to pass
thru his body. killing him almost in
stantly.
The plaintiff holds that the company
was liable in that they had not prop
erly safeguarded their wires, did not
furnish the man a safe place to work,
nor did they furnish him with COM
petent help, such as would have been
able to have released him from his
peTiious position when he fell, thus
avertins his death upon the wires. The
accident occurred on July 10, 1912.

investigating Problem OF Industries at
State Reformatory.
Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines, July 9.-The board of
control is at Anamosa today making in
vestigation into the problem of indus
tries at the state reformatory.
The desire is to increase the number
Of industries and to furnish the pris-
oners with varied labor. There are
q number Of minor industries carried
out at the reformatory but nothing
like what has been contemplated by
acts Of the legislature. There is the
stonecrusher which is valuable prop
osition. The sole remaining contract
industry is the butter tub factory. The
state may take over this latter and
operate it.
The board will also look into the pos
sibility OF establishing some clay work
ing industries II the right kind of clay
can be secured there Will be established
g tile and brick factory for the work
of the prisoners. 1t is believed this
would be most easily established of
any.
The legislature contemplated estab-
lishmcnt of a number of industries at
the reformatory but has never given
the money with which to get started.
Those that are started will have to be
in small way and at little expense.
