F ALLS BENEATH WHEELS0 0F FREIGHT Charles McWhite Fatally Injured at A. G. s. De-
 pot in Bessemer

Charles McWhite, aged B years, a ma chinist, was probably fatally injured about o'clock last night when he slipped and fell beneath the wheels of freight train No. n, at the Alabama Great South ern railroad depot in Bessemer. Mo White had attempted to hobo his way on the passing freight.
 At the Elizabeth Duncan hospital where the injured man was carried it was stated by pr. Lacy. who operated on McWhite, that his left leg had been severed close to the body and the right leg just below the knee. From loss of blood and the shock 1t was not expected that the man would live through the night.
 Before losing consciousness at the in- firmary McWhite made the statement that he had attempted to board the freight in order to go further south in the search of employment He stated that he had wife and two babies in Attalla. whom he had left about a week ago and would the authorities please in- form his wife of his accident McWhite was calm.
 Notify the wife and kids at Attalla, " said the dying man, ''as don't think I'll pull through. There wasn't any work in Attalla and left to hunt for some. Tn Birmingham and this town couldn't find any and decided to hop a freigh. tonight and go further south where I'd heard a man might get job. In hopping on the freight my foot slipped and went under"
 McWhite closed his eyes and did not speak again. He was still unconscious from the effects of the anasthetic at an early hour this morning.

 Touches on Business Research
 Mir Pratt also talked on business re- search. He told in detail of the man. ner in which a pamphlet was issued GOV ering the business conditions of Novem- Der, 1913. and, November, 1914 MT. Pratt explained that November and March were index months and they indicated better than at other periods the prosperity of the country. The pamphlet was issued or December 30 and it contains an ac- curate compa rison of the American busi- ness status of last November with that of a year ago. The surprise of the re- port is that it does not show a busi- ness depression as is generally suspected. Groceries in particular gained over 1913 as well as hardware stores. Retail mer- chandise and drugs showed a slight loss. The advertising in all these lines was in proportion to the trading. The gist of the research report is that business is showing steady and continued improve ment
