DEAD MAN FOUND IN
CAR OF COAL AT DODGE

A man about twenty-five years old
was found dead in a car of coal at
Dodge Wednesday morning by rail
road men who were unloading the
shipment which came from the mines
at Zenith. His face was horribly
mangled and his body badly bruised
by the heavy weight of coal which lay
upon him. When found he was dress.
ed in brown overalls and jacket and
a card in his pocket bore the name OF
a town in Montana. The body was
taken in charge by the sheriff at
Dodge.
A telegram to Zenith resulted in the
statement that none of the miners or
inhabitants is missing. Saturday
morning, when the shipment left Zc-
NTH, Andrew Truelsen, superinten-
dent of the mines there, says that a
young man, possibly about eighteen
years old, made inquiries as to the
time of departure of the trains from
that place and it is supposed that ne
crawled aboard the coal train when 1t
pulled out. A loading attachment on
the car carries huge amount of coal
onto the car during loading and it is
thought that the young man had Sc
creted himself directly beneath this
while coal was being loaded onto the
car. It is presumed that sudden
downpour of coal in the chute struck
the man on the head, rendering him
unconscious and subsequent filings
buried him beneath the black mass,
crushing the life from his body.
kilograms have been sent from
Dodge to points in Montana in the
hope that the mans relatives may be
located.
