MISS BRENNAN
HAS A VERY
LUCKY ESCAPE
From Serious Injury When
Horses Pulling the Waldo
Bus Runs Away.

Pedestrians and storekeepers on
West Main street were treated to 4
thrilling sight about 10 o'clock Tues
day morning, when the horses pulling
the Waldo bus ran away down West
Main street with lone passenger
a woman-in the bus. The lone pas
senger, Miss Bert Brannon. daughter
of Mrs. Annie Brennan, owner of the
st. Charles hotel, luckily escaped any
physical injury. Neither did her
nervous system seem to suffer as a
result OF the experience. Some
rough ride" she said. as she alighte'l
from the bus after the horses had
finally stopped In front of the, home
of Colonel Henry Raymond on West
Main street. The horses started their
dash at the corner of West Main and
Fourth streets.
The driver of the bus had alighted
from his seat, and Miss Brennan was
preparing to get cut when the horse
became frightened and started rum
ming. Miss Brennan was inside the
bus and unable to reach the reins;
thus being powerless to check the
horses mad dash.
At the corner of West Main and
Sixth streets, the horse ran over the
concrete wall around the yard of the
home of Marmaduke Wells. damaging
that wall slightly. The horse came
out of the yard few feet further
west, and finally stopped in front oil
the home of Colonel Henry Raymond.
Persons who witnessed the runaway
marvel that the bus did not turn
over when it went over the concrete
wall.
Miss Brennan was coming from the
Baltimore and Ohio passenger station
to her home at the hotel, of which
her mother is owner. She had. re-
turned on train No. from Boston
where she had been studying music.

tee, which first heard Clifford Thorne,
chairman Of the Iowa board Of rail-
road commissioners, who was assocl-
ated with Mr.. Brandeis In the fight
against giving the eastern railroads
increased freight rates.
Mr.. Thorne assailed the conduct
OF Mr.. Brandeis In that case.
II believe the nominee before. this
committee was guilty Of infidelity. Of
breach Of faith and Of, unprofesslonal
conduct in connection with one Of the
greatest cases Of this generation"
said he.
Thorne charged that Brandeis. as
an attorney appearing for the ship
pes, conceded that the rates re-
turned to the railroads was made
quate and that Brandeis in his oral
argument to the Interstate Commerce
Commission conceded that the re-
turns were inconsistent with proprl'

the public.

SEPARATE PEACE NOW
OFFERED THE BELGlANS
,sv ASSOCIATED esrss,

ROME, Feb. 9.-The Giornale
Italia states that Monsignor Tacci
Porcelli, the papal nuncio to Belgium,
presented to Belgium Germany's pro-
posals for separate peace. Whether
or not he was authorized to do so
by the Vatican, says the newspaper,
has not been ascertained.
1t is said that Germany, through
Prince Won Buelow and other promi-
nent personages, has indicated that
the terms it is ready to offer to Bel
GUM for the concluding of separ-
ate peace comprise the restoration OF
Belgium to the government Of King
Albert, and the payment Of a large
indemnity for damages caused by the
invasion and occupation and that 1t
asks in return economical and COM
mercial privileges, which would
transform the port of Antwerp into
a German center of traffic. To these
proposals, Belgium is said to have
replied with prompt refusal and a
declaration of intention to adhere to

ANOTHER CRIMINAL
CAUGHT AND FINED

AS proved at the hearing. this dis
trlbution would undoubtedly have in
creased the business Of the retail
merchants at that place. Also the
money paid out in labor might have
been spent there; consequently. this is
sufficient evidence to place him in
the criminal class.
Mr.. Fulmer has been in the employ
Of the Shredded Wheat Company for
about eight years, and is aclean, moral
type of young business man, and the
company has absolute confidence. in
him; but in justice to the citizens Of
the state Of West Virginia, let 1t be
added that in all that time, in his
work from city to city. year after year,
this is the only mayor he has ever
found that has had sense of Justice,
truth, and love Of duty, so keenly de-
veloped as to place him in the Grim

this request on the ground that 1t
is the only equitable basis for the
payment Of what the miner produces.
The mine run demand was also OPP
posed by c. f. Maurer, of Cleveland.
and George Schluederberg, of Pitts

operated disadvantageously to the
operators, while Mr.. Schlucderberk
suggested that the mine run demand
was not a question for settlement
by the interstate conference, brr was
one for adjustment by the states
themselves.
His suggestion was not agreed to
by the miners who pointed out that
the mine run was nearly always fig
