HORSE PLUNGES DIRECTLY INTO
PANHANDLE TRACTION CAR,
DOING MUCH DAMAGE.
Albert Cook, the Driver, is In Wheel
ing Hospital, in Very
Serious Condition.

Albert Cook. Il driver for Burns Il
Church. who lives in The rear OF 1Oi9
Main street. is in the Wheeling hos
ptaI. in very mecar iOus condition,
as the result Of injuries sustained
when the horse he was driving ran d.
rectly into Il Panhandle traction car
shortly after 10 o'clock last night.
The horse received number Of
bruises, the wagon was partly dem0l'
ished and Il number Of the windows in
the car were broken by the impact.
Cook was driving his horse toward
Wheeling. and the wheels Of. the We.
hcle were running along in the rails.
When passing the Top mill it is sup
posed that the animal became fright
cned at the noise OF the machinery,
and the large amount of steam pre-
vented the driver from seeing the car
as it rounded the curve at this point.
The horse ran directly into the car.
Cook was picked up in an uncon.
scious condition and rushed 10 the hos
pital. Dr.. J. plummer Cole was sum-
moned. and upon examination found
that Cook had Il slight fracture of the
skull, broken nose and other inju.
ricS.
The car was en- route 10 WellSDurg
and was in charge OF Motorman Jack
son and Conductor Clifford Leaves.
The affair was purely accidental. &C
cording TO the street car men. and 40
torman Jackson said he stopped his
car just as quickly as possible.
Cook was still unconscious n Il late
hour this morning. and the result Of
his injuries cannot be determined until
after an N-ray examination, which will
be made this morning.
