Frank Higgins, Former Flagman
Faces Jury on Charge Of
Second Degree Man
slaughter.
TRIAL is OUTGROWTn
OF CHRISTMAS WRECK
Jury Empaneled; Testimony Is
Taken; Lawyers Battle On
Points in Case; Engineer
Quinn Put on Stand.

No sooner had the smoke from the
fight in the Kittreil murder case dis
appeared from the county court
house this morning, than Judge
Linn's district court went to bat with
the trial of Frank Higgins, former
Frisco flagman, charged with second
degree manslaughter.
Attorneys ]. w Burns and Moman
Pruitt, of Oklahoma City, who repre-
sented the defense in the Kittrell trial
yesterday and last night. are furnish
ing the bulwark for the defendant,
Higgins. D.. M. Cayaness, county at
torney and his assistant, William sta
cey, are the prosecuting attorneys.
Quinn on the stand.
-Four witnesses, including Engineer
John Quinn, who sat at the cab oI
the wrecked passenger trains engine,
were placed on the stand this morn
ing
Engineer Quinn testified of the
wreck, the dead and the general con-
dition following the wreck He testi-
fled that on the morning of December
25 he was forced to stop at Norge on
account of engine trouble, and that
had it not been for the engine trou-
BILE, the train would not have stopped
at Norge As minutes.
The official rule book of the COM
pany was introduced while Engineer
Quinn occupied the witness stand The
prosecuting attorney read to the jury
a rule in the book which, according
to the statement read to the jury,
states that when a train is detained
at place for longer period than
usual because of a mishap or train
trouble, it is the duty of the flagman
to walk distance of twenty tele-
graph poles behind the train and i'm
mediately place a torpedo on the en-
gineer's side of the track, and shall
romain there until called in by au-
thority.
Contradicting this, the attorney for
the defense introduced another rule
in the companys book of rules and
regulations that states that the en-
gineer should signal to the flagman
in such event that the train is held
up by engine or train trouble and
when such signal is received, it be-
comes the duty of the flagman to
guard the rear of the train in the
proper manner. Quinn testified that
he did not give the signal.
81 kept the train on the main
track because had the right-of
way" said Engineer Quinn when
asked by Attorney Burns why he
did not sidetrack his train. In an
swer to further questions asked by
the state, Quinn said it was proper
and in accordance with the rules
of the company to sidetrack the
train GAen it becomes necessary to
stop at AN unusual place.
The case9is the outgrowth of the
Frisco wreck at Norge which oc-
Cured on Christmas morning and in
which five were killed and S5 in
jured. The case was continuing this
afternoon and it was thought probable
that night session would be re
quired If it was finished before to-
morrow.
The jury was selected without a
great deal of trouble and is as fol-
lows:
