SKULL CRUSHED IN
RUNAWAY ACCIDENT
Edward Jones of Davenport, Suffers
Probably Fatal Injuries In Fall
Under Horse's Feet.'
Edward . Jones, the 17-yearold son
of William Jones of Davenport, was
probably fatally Injured this morning
In a runaway accident. He was driv
ing a grocery delivery wagon, and
when the horses became frightened and
ran away he fell under the feet of the
animals. His skull was crushed and
the chances of his recovery are slight.
An operatio nis being performed this
afternoon at St. Luke's hospital, where
he was taken after the accident. The
runaway occurred at Fifth and Iowa
streets.
special sales in many respects. People
who absent themselves from this sale
because they have attended some other
sale, are using very poor discretion.
The fact that all books are books, does
not make the books alike. The fact
that all cars are cars does not make
all cars alike. Some are so much su
perior to others that they are.not sim
ilar, except, perchance, in shape. So
It is with the Great Profit-Sharing
Clearance sale. It informs the public
through the columns of the newspa
pers what is being done, but that is
about the limit of its similarity to other
sales. This sale gives high class mer
chandise at ridiculously low prices,
also gives trading stamps absolutely
free, its decorations are very different.
all this goes to make up a magnificent
sale, that places the Profit-Sharing
Clearance sele at Young & McCombs
in a class entirely by itself.
POWDER REMAINING AFTER
EXPLOSION IS IGNITED
Causes Second Blowup at Ashland
Factory, But Without Fatali
ties Resulting.
Ashland, Wis., July 20. Another ex
plosion occurred at the plant of the At
lanta Dynamite company today. It shook
the surrounding country, but was not
so severe as the one that destroyed
three lives Tuesday of last week. A
great column of smoke shot up 2,000
feet and flying timbers followed by
flaaies could be plainly seen from Ash
land. No one was killed or injured.
The dynamite and powder, which was
scattered by last Tuesday's explosion,
had been gathered into a considerable
pile near the site of the destroyed neu-
trallzating buildings. A bonfire was
lighted some distance away from the
explosive, and this fire spread through
out the grass and caused the explosion.

Douuia In Frensy of Rage.
The official statement that Russia is
arranging to call on Austria and Ger
many for help has created the most in
tense indignation In parliament.
Early this morning, in Its closing de
bate on the agrarian manifesto, M.
Petrunkevitch was wildly applauded
when he declared that it was impossi
ble to show consideration to a ministry
which was negotiating to introduce
foreign troops on the sacred soil of
Russia.
Made Lnm Violent.
The agrarian proclamation adopted
at 2 o'clock this morning was less vio
lent than the first drafts debated in the
douma yesterday. Changes were made
at the last moment designed to mini
mize the revolutionary features of the
document as an appeal to the people
against the government and to shift
the emphasis to a note of pacification,
in which the peasantry are exhorted to
refrain from excesses and violence and
to await parliament's decision in ihe
matter.
Vote Climax to 12-Hour Debate. .
The vote was taken at the close of a
sitting that lasted continuously for 12
hours, in -which it seemed probable that
the address would be rejected entirely
by the combined votes of the right and
left wings of the house against the ir
resolute center party. The address was
only saved from this fate by the ab
stention from voting of 101 members
of the group of toil and sympathizers
with that faction, who favored a more
radical measure. There were only l"4
votes, all constitutional democrats, for
the address and 53 against It.
