Another plan which Mr.. Carlson

As ind!rated, the revolt was not

forces. The first impression to get
abroad was that there had been n
rather serious rebellion, but 1t latet
became apparent that the disaffec-
tion had been purely local. that the
government had all along been Awnre

steps to deal with those responsible.

CONDUCTOR ssR1.IiR16BE1aE1
INJURED N s,roWsIIDe

Conductor 1. E. Shellenberger had a
close call Wednesday morning in a
wreck l2 miles east Of Minturn, when
q snowslide struck the caboose in which
he was managing the work of flanger
outfit and rolled the caboose with four
men in it, 10 feet down the embank.
ment into the icy waters of the roar
ing Eagle river.
Shellenberger was the only man in
jured, having several ribs cracked and
bruised. He was brought to this city
Wednesday evening and is at his
home resting comparatively easy. The
accident happened at $40 a. m. in 4
binding snowstorm. The flanger was
battling eastward up the pass and
without any warning slide came down
the steep hillside and struck the ca
boose squarely. The men inside did not
know what had happened and were
thrown about in the car as it rolled
into the river. 1t landed in the water
and was nearly buried by the ava.
lanche. The men crawled out and saw
tho engine and the flanger ontbe rails far
sbove them, then took account of their
injuries. All were bruised and shaken
and for . time Shellenberger was un-
able to speak or help himself, but
gradually recovered his strength.
The slide was nearly all snow, with
but little debris and covered the track
for 200 feet. 1t was cut through in
about four hours.-GraDd Junction
