fc Page Twelve DECATUR i Evening. June tf, 1907. SWITCHMAN STRUCK C. C. Grimm From Top of Box Car at Sidney.

Struck on the head by the spout of the water tank at Sidney Thursday and knocked from the roof of a. car to the ground C. C. Grimm, a Wabash brakeman, now lies at the WaBash hospital in this city with injuries that though not likely to result fatally, are nevertheless serious. Grimm was the brakeman on an extra freight that had stopped at Sidney to' set out some cars.

Having some oars to place on the Champaign branch track Grimm, who was standing on the roof of a car, over to see If the switch was all right. As he did so he did not notice the closeness of the water tank. He was struck a terrific blow on the side of the head and knocked from the top of the car to the ground, falling within six inches of the wheels of the train. The engineer of the train, having seen the accident. Immediately brought the train to a stop.

The injured man was picked up a-nd placed aboard passenger train No. 2 and taken to Danville. Dr. Morehouse, the company surgeon at Danville, having examined the man and finding no bones broken or fractures, concluded that Grimm had better be taken to the company hospital at Decatur for observation and treatment. This was done.

Grimm's worst injury is a frightful shock to his nervous system. So far there are little or no evidences of internal injury. The only other arrival at the Wabash hospital Friday was Henry Curran, a switchforeman of Decatur, who was brought in suffering from stomach trouble. BIDS ON STATIOIBOO HIGH Board of Local Improvements Rejects Only Offers Made. The board of local improvements and pecial waterworks committee met Frf- ay noon and opened bids for the new umplng station.

two bids were ecelved, and both, were rejected be- ause they were too high. They were igher than the estimate and it was ecided to advertise again for bids, he bids were as follows: Jahr Cope--Building of paving rick trimmed with Bedford stone, for Car Are Ready. The sills for the combination car which the East Decatur car shops is building to replace the combination car destroyed by fire Saunemin last December are now ready and will be bolted to the trucks next week. When this is done. Foreman Carter of the coach shops will feel that the better part of the car is built as the trucks and the sills are the most important part of a car.

On their proper construction depends much of the efficiency and mileage-making powers of a car. There are eight of these sills, all seventy-two feet in length and constructed of long leaf yellow pine reinforced with strengthening Irons of seven by two inches running back twenty-seven feet from either end. Six of the sills were cut from seventy-flve foot pine without a flaw. The two other sills had to be spliced as there were small flaws in them. Turn Out Four Four complete trains of repaired and repainted passenger coaches, baggage cars and express cars turned out of the eoach shops at the East Decatur car i the thirty days ending speaks well for the efficiency of the' new shops.

Foreman W. F. Carter of the coach shops and the men under him have known for some time past a they have been going the pace that kills, but they did not recognize the fact that they had been making a record until Tuesday, when Nos. 32 and 13's train of a chair car, coach, baggage car and express car were turned out and some one called their attention to the fact that it was the fourth train turned out in thirty days. Since then Mr.

Carter and his men have been just a bit inclined to be chesty. No Offllclal Existence. Missouri's 2-cent fare law has no official existence on the Wabash a's yet, this in spite of the fact that the law, according to the best authorities around here, went into effect June lo Be that as it may no bulletins announcing the fact have been received by the Wabash officials at Decatur. Until they are received the local officials are in the dark as to what changes will be made in rates and the like. After being In use at the Lancers roundhuse for some time the- cylinder boring bar owned by the Wabash roundhouse here arrived In the city Friday in a box car and was unloaded at the roundhouse.

This machine Is used for boring out engine cylinders and can be so adjusted as to do this kind of work on anything from the small cylinders of an engine like yard engine No. 15 to the Immense cyl inder ol a compound. The machine Is a costly one and weighs about a ton. An engine ac companies it to run it.
