Spills Coal, and Wrecks

Four cows were killed, a big coal
truck wrecked and two occupants
miraculously escaped serious injury
yesterday afternoon as the truck de-
scended the mountain west of Bloom
ington. The truck got out of control
just after Thomas E. Martin, 26, Of
Wardensville, W. Va, the driver, put
it in lower gear to descend the steep
grade. The brakes failed to hold when
he saw six cows ahead of him. The
cows belonged to William H. Barnard,
of Swanton, and were being driven
westward by some of the Barnard
boys.
The truck was a total wreck, Officer
Austin H. Bike stated. 1t had spun
around, overturned after swapping i

SAFETY DRIVE ORGANIZED
TO CUT HIGHWAY DEATHS
County Chairman Asks Organi-
cations and Individuals to Assist

In cooperation with State agencies
and joining all the other Maryland
counties, Garrett county opened its
campaign for highway safety on Sun
day by asking that information con-
corning Governor O'Conor's procla-
nation and other news about traffic
deaths in the State in the past year
be made known through newspapers,
churches and all organizations and
asking the cooperation of all in max
ing the safety campaign effective.
r. E. Guard, of Friendsville, was
named chairman for Garrett county
one day last week by Governor O'Con-
or. The Governor said the increasing
gravity of the traffic death problem
prompted the campaign. Last year
446 persons were killed on Maryland
highways and more than 10000 were
injured. This year the death toll is
running 35 per cent higher than in the
first nine months of 1888 and the
worst fatality months of the year are
ahead.
The plan is to have intensive safety
drives during the first week of this
month and the first weeks in Novem-
Der and December to emphasize the
need for greater care in driving when
road conditions are particularly bad.
"Save life-perhaps your own" is
the slogan of the Statewide safety
effort. By education, safety precau-
lions and legal measures it is hoped
to inculcate safety consciousness" so
thoroughly that many lives will be
saved and injuries to pedestrians and
others reduced to a minimum.
Governor O'Conor, in his proclama-
ton, asked that motorists and pedes-
trians exercise increased caution on
streets and highways to the end thai
we may have safer Maryland in
which to live, and stop the totally I'M
necessary and disgraceful slaughter of
so many citizens.
