Wa!do Negus, the 8 ear old son of ex-A'd. C. W. Negus and ife, was run down by electric motor car No . 34, of tbe red line, in charge of Motormon J. A. Walsh and Conductor William Totten In front of his parents' homa, shortly be fore 1 o'clock this afternoon. He was picked up and carried intj Ellis' coal office by II. D. Folsom, wh) was passing at the time, and from there was taken to his home, corner Second avenue and Thirteenth street, and pbytictans imme diately summoned.' Drs. Cwter, Eyster, Truesdale and Comeeys. of Philadelphia, who is visiting in the city, arrived short ly after, but tbe little fellow bad not suffi ciently rallied from the shock to admit of anything but a hasty examination. From this it was shown that the light arm was literally Ground to pieces as far up as the shoulder ioint, while there were a num ber of cuts about the scalp and hips, and bruises all over the body. How serious these injuries may prove could not be determined at otce, but that they were of a very grave nature the physicians at once conceded. The poor boy will surely lose his Tight arm. at id possibly his life. It is not known exactly bow the acci dent happened, as several playmates were with the unfortunate boy at the time, in cluding his little brother Charles Negus, Jr. , and each tells a different story as to bow it occurred. The nost probable, however, is that of Arthur Evans, of Brooklyn, Iowa, a ceusin f tbe injured boy, who states that the toys had been playing tag in the street and that Waldo Negus was hanging on the back cf a dirt wagon that was passing down the avenue and when the wagon wa3 almost abreast of tbe car, which was comiag up town. he dropped off, and either started across or fell in tront of the car. Styles Copp. another of -he boy's com pinions, told substantially tbe same story. Motorneer Walsh stated that be was looking ahead at tbe time but eaw no one on tbe track. He had not .ced some chil dren along the side of the track and when he felt tbe jar of tbe car he thought they bad thrown a brick or tometbicg on the rail. He did not know then that his motor had run over anyone until he fair Mr Folsom who had licked the boy up, motioning to him to stop which he did immediately. Conductor Totten, who was talking to the motoneer at the time, did not see the boy and the first he knew cf it, was when he got off tbe car and went back. Tbe motoneer also states that be had sounded bis gong at tue corner, and was not runs ning at more than ordinary speed, as he stopped the car within a ft w feet when be saw the man motion hici to stop. In the opinion of Mr. Fclsom the ran tjrman was cot to blame, although lie pays that the latter was talking to the conductor who was standing in tbe front door of the car. As soon as it was known to them Superintendents Hchnitger and Hill hurried to the home of the boy and offered any aseietance they might render. Tbe unfortunate boy died at 4:10 this afternoon.

Tbe receipts of vheat by river yesterday were by far tbe largest of any during tbe season. Tbe wheat from Missouri, Illinois, and upper Mississippi has just begun moving, and a large in crease of receipts in tbe n.tar future is expected, which will continue for weeks, as the bulk of tbe large crops of wheat has just begun to move.

The finish for second place was alraoft neck and neck between Peoria Chief, Baker Boy and Almont. The first horse broke into a run juat be fore the wire was reached, and lo avoid him after passing tbe wire the driver of Baker Boy swerved slightly from bis course. There was a crash of snapping 8 pokes, and Almoni H. was drawing an overturned sulky. His driver jumped, but his foot was caught in the lines and he n as dmwa along the around for sev eral yards. Taen the line broke and re leased uiin, aud li-v arose to his feet with an agility tbut showed him to be but lit tie hurt. The driverless horse settled down and tatids the turn, corniag back to tbe gate to be caught. Tbe free-for-all Racing race resulted as follows.

In this race tbe firbt attempt to tcctre was attended by a lamentable accident which tbe Democrat detcrioes as fol lows; Tbe pole horse driven by its owner, C. A. Smith, of Chicago, and tbe favor ite in the pools, swerved so as to bring tne sulky ag&iDSt tlie raihcg and partial ly overturn it. Tbe driver attempted to leap to tbe ground, but a lurch of tbe sulky sent him down between it and tbe borse. An attempt to get c ut over tbe shafts failed and he went beneath the horse's heels. The reins, tbe ends of which were fastened together, caught bis foot, and for an eighth of a mile be was dragged beneath the sulky. A cry of horror rose from the crowd, and there was but one opinion written upon all countenances that if Smith escaped dentil it wnultj be arointcl". But when bp finally became, dibenianglod and was picked np, be expressed himself as bein "all right." He was hard!? that, iliougu. Dick tjnu struck iuui iu the face una pou sihly stepped upon him, but in the excite ment of the moment be oid not feel that be wts hurt. He was brought in to tbe Kimball house last tvtnicc and although a little ft: II from bis bruises was able to move about, and unites iuterual injuries develop he promises to be all right in a wetk or two. Shortly after the accident a suggestion that a collection be taken up lor Smith's hneht wis put to the crowd, and as a resu't Smith was pre sented wi;h a hatfull cf money as he lay near the stables upon a pile of straw. A rnuut of the money showed $114.50 Dick C. contiuued ou his way around the track after leaving bis driver in tbe dust. Had tbe horse been left aione be would huve stopped yoluntardy .f'er running a little. .jiut nothing would do but Uiit liit-u should iuu out and wave their arras at him, yeii at htm, tnrow sticks at him, and so on, until finally the poor borse was so scared that he wouldn't bave stopped had be run up against a house. After making the cir cle of the track six time Dick stopped from sheer exhaustion and was secured. aaadiy Hrrviees. At the Ninth street Methodist, Sunday school at 2 p. m.

Today W Cole, an expert from Chicago, arrived to look over the books of both tbe Daven- j port & Rock Island and Davenport Cen tral Electric road6 and the indications point strongly to a consolidation. This will, it is believed, affect Davenport more than Rock Island, and possibl7 not Rock Irfltiud at all . It is to be he pe l so, as Rock Island is satisfied with its present facilities, knows wbst the Chicago syndi cite is doing and will do, and does not desire a change. Dr. Alien is in Chicago f course all the s'.reet car officials here are reticent. b. t to a man up in a balicon it would look as if the Allen lines were to be assumed by the syndicate.
