freight at Medford, recently, is being
investigated by the Medford authori-

dered unconscious by blow from the
fist of a burly brakeman. Aquilar
was senseless for half an hour. He
was then put in Jail by Sergeant Pat

English, and when told by the brake
man to get out of the car he did not
understand. The brakeman seeing
him hesitate, struck him in the face,
knocking him out of the car door. A

brakeman, but they could find no
trace of him. An investigation will
be made by the railroad.
