Toy Telegraph Apparatus Cause
Of Fatality 10 Howard EngeE
man Sunday Evening
DIES SOON AFTER
THE SHOCK OCCURS
Body Is Burned Across the Stom-
ach and on One Arm = His
Hands Are Not Injured

Howard Engelman, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. z. H Engelman of this city, was
electrocuted Sunday night about ten
O'Clock when he came in contact with
a live wire near the residence of III.
L. Barber and G. w. Hilliard in the
500 block on Second Avenue. A wire
near the residences, which had fallen
to the grund during the storm, caused
the accident.
1t seems that Glen Barber and Cor
don Hilliard had installed an amateur
telegraph apparatus and had stretch
ed wire across to the respective
homes of their parents. The wire i'm
falling came in contact with the city
electric light wires and carried the
entire strength of the current to the
ground.
The young man, who was passing
at the time attempted to pick up the
wire and avoid an accident to others
who might pass and not see it. Mrs.
Engelman, his wife was with the man
at the time. Mr. Engelman was carry
ing piece of ice at the time of the
accident which added in making the
electric current more deadly.
Mr. Engelman died soon after the
contact with the shock of 23O0 volts.
He was burned across the body and
one arm Mrs. Hilliard, attempted to
turn the hose on the ill fated young
man when she noticed his clothing
on fire but the hose would not reach
the spot. The electricity might have
been drawn to her from the spot if
it did reach.
He is survived by his wife, child and
parents also l sister, Delva. Funeral
services Thursday afternoon from the
home, 218 Water street.
Mr.. Engelman was an ex-service
man and a diligent church worker.
His health the past few months was
not the best and this might have aided
in the immediate death when he came
in contact with the wire.
Physicians summoned worked on
the body after it was released from
the live wire but no resuscitation
could be made.
An inquest as to the death was held
this morning and was adjourned till
later.

SEASON
COMES TO CLOSE
Pack of Peas and Corn About 49,
600 Cases Each This Year.
Crop Is Reduced

The canning season at the Herfort
Canning company has come to close.
About $4,000 cases of peas and $4,000
cases of corn were put up. The peas
was about half of the normal pack
and the corn about three-fourths of
previous years. Last year in this
country peas put up amounted to a.
100000 and this year 100000. The
crop of both corn and peas was
greatly reduced this year and this
will probably give an upward trend
to the price. The local company ran
out of cans and about ten tons of corn
went into the silo. Cans will be low
er in price and since whole car could
not be used it was a saving to shoot
the corn into the big silos.

Are Slightly Injured

On Saturday night between 10 and
III O'cOck an automobile driven by
Attorney w. G. Evenson and buggy
in which Mr. and Mrs Louis Martin
and Mr.. Martins sister, Miss Alma
Martin, were riding, accidently collid-
ed at the top of the hill on Walnut

on the Warner Memorial road, near
a curve Mr.. Martin went over the
dashboard and prevented the horse
from running away. MICS Martin
received a broken nose and was
otherwise slightly injured. One eye is
black. Mrs. Martin escaped being
hurt. Daniel j. Roberts, the Singer,
was in the car with Mr.. Evenson. When
the crash came the machine went
over but fortunately neither of the
occupants were injured nor the car
damaged. Others who came along
assisted in getting the machine on the
concrete. Miss Martin was taken to
a doctors office. She has since gone
to st. Paul where she is one of about
a thousand teachers in that city and
will have her nose more carefully
treated there. The occupants OF the
buggy state they saw no lights and
that the lights on the car were out
of order. The attorney will gen
erously settle the damages.
About a week before while Mr.. Mar
tin was driving along the same road
a wheel of borrowed vehicle in
which he was riding was broken by
being struck by passing machine.
He had repairs made and returned the
property but a few hours before the
last accident. After the buggy was
broken he again borrowed the vehicle
and rode home. He has about decid-
ed the only safe plan is to purchase
an automobile and then he can ride
with less fear of meeting an accident.

Note Gives Hint Of Force

From The Tribune's WashinGtors Basrsau
WASHINGTON, May 2.-The Pan.
ANA government is directed to take
prompt steps to turn over to the gov
ernment of Costa Rica the territory
awarded to that nation by former Pres
sident Loubet of France and Chief
Justice Edward E White of the Su-
preme Court of the United States. in
note handed to-day to Foreign Min
lister Garay by the American Minister
at Panama.
The note, which was made public by
Secretary Hughes, reiterated the posi-
tion Of this government advanced in
the communication sent to Panama
March 16, supporting unequivocally the
judicial award of the land in dispute,
and demands that Panama promptly
submit to this award by vacating the
land rightfully belonging 20 Costa
Rica.
"Unless such steps are taken within
reasonable time," the note asserts,
"the government of the United States
the manner which may be requisite in
order that it may assure itself that the
exercise of jurisdiction is appropriately
transferred
Note Virtual Ultimatum
In the note, which is forcefully writ
ten and presents the character Of an
surprise and regret at the refusal Of
Panama to submit to the awards made
by the two arbitrators, in the face Of
the fact that by the provisions Of
treaties entered into by the two gov
ernments each consented to recognize
without question the findings of the
two arbitrators.
The obligation Of the United States to-
ward Panama, as defined in the Hay
Bunau Varilla treaty, is described in
the Hughes note in detail.
"This government" the note sets
forth, believes Chat it would be mad
missible to interpret its obligations to
the Republic Of Panama as embracing
an obligation to support any claims
for adjoining territory which might be
advanced by the government Of Pam
ANA, no matter what the opinion Of
this government might be as to the
validity or justice of these claims, and
without the limitation obviously i'm
piled in the first article Of the Hay
Bunau Varilla treaty. The government
Of the United States has already indi-
Gated to the government Of Panama

be, and must again state, in the most
positive manner, that its duty to guar

FAILS, May 2.--France to-day wore
something of the air Of 1914 as prepa.
rations were rushed for the Allied oc.
cupation of the Westphalian industrial
region.
Four trains loaded with cannon, ma.
chine guns and shells left Laroche fo,
the Rhine to-day, and cavalry and ar.
tiilery are on the way to the frontie,
from Melun, Lyons, vieone and Va.
iencc. Mobilization orders for the
class Of 1919, sent throughout France
tonight, make more than 100000 mer
available for the service Of occupation
within a week.
Several railroads in the eastern de.
partments leading toward the German
frontier are reported to have been
placed under military control.
The French are confident no eleventh
hour proposal from Germany will be
sufficiently satisfactory to halt the
Allied advance into Germany. OF.
ficials at the Foreign Office. who in the
last two days had been anxious over
the differences which had developed at
the London conference, said to-day
that the road was we'll cleared for
putting the French military program
into operation.
AS they continue performing plans
the French are counting on two factors
which they think make the occupation
OF Westphalia inevitable after the
eight days grace granted by the Lon
Gva - L. D.
ance OF British support; second, Ger
many's unwillingness to furnish the
required guarantees.
1t is doubtful If any German govern
Ynent would feel prepared to assume
the responsibility Of giving complete
financial control of Germany into the
hands of the Allies-which would re-
quire the most intimate supervision Of
German Industry and participation in
the ownership and profits.
