Cnt to rieces by Train.
Lying asleep across the Northern
Pacific tracks at Trigo, near Eureka
Junction, J. J. Sellers was run over
by a freight train about 11 o'clock
last night, receiving Injuries from
which he will probably die, says the
Walla pla Statesman.
piiors was in town yesterday and
it Is said he had been drinking hard.
He went out on the Northern Pa
cific passenger at 6:30 last night and
got off at Trigo. He was assisted Dy
the conductor and brakeman to a
warehouse, where he was left. j
After the train puneu out ecuers
crawled bark on the track, evidently
starting for his home near the station.
He did not succeed, however. In get
ting across the track, but lay down
there and went to sleep.
When the freight came along about
11 o'clock he was run over, the wheels
cutting off one leg above the ankle
and breaking the other at the thigh
and badly bruising It. Besides thl
he received other Injuries.
He was unable to get away from
the place where he was run over, but
lay there for seven hours enduring
untold agony waiting for help. It
did not come until about 6 o'clock this
morning when a freight from the
other way came along.
Summoning all his powers he raised
himself enough to flag the train and
then fell back unconscious. He was
found to be terribly weakened from
loss of blood. He was put aboard the
passenger train for Walla Walla,
brought to town and taken to St.
Mary's hospital, where Dr. Shaw was
summoned to attend him.
He was found to be critically in
jured and It is doubtful If he can re
cover.
Sellers Is a rather aged man and Is
the father of Mrs. Frank Hlte, who
lives In Green's addition. He has two
sons ln Ritzvllle.
Taking the Place of Tiles-England
Holds the Market.
Consul B. E. Holaday advises that
there has been a marked demund dur
ing the past year ln the Santiago dis
trict of Cuba for galvanized corrugat
ed Iron roofing, to which he adds:
This was due to the activity which
has been taking place In building op
erations and the fact that this class
of roofing Is supplanting to a con
siderable extent the native tile roof
ing. England supplies practically all
of the corrugated Iron roofing that Is
sold ln this market. The merchants
claim that they can purchase a bet
ter grade of corrugated Iron for less
than they can of Americans. The di
mensions of the Iron nnd the retail
price at which it Is sold ln this mar
ket are as follows:
Sheets 26 by 72 Inches, S gauge,
retail ae $5 per 100 pounds, and hun
10 sheets to the 100 pounds; sheets
32 by 72 Inches, 28 gauge, retail at
$.490 per 100 pounds, and run 10
sheets to 136 pounds. Samples of
corrugated Iron roofing of British
-manufacture such as sold In this mar
ket are forwarded. (They will be
loaned to the American trade by the
bureau of manufactures.)
