But His Wounds Are Not Dangerous—The Other Two Escaped Without a Scratch—Their Vehicle Got on the Track of a Fort Snelling Street Car. While returning from a hunting trip last evening John Klemish and M. J. Piras, living at 811 Colburn; Carl Buch, living on Superior street, near West Sev enth, and Peter Carlson, living at 613 West Seventh street, were run down by a Fort Snelling street car near the fort. Buch was dangerously injured and Klem ish was hurt, but Carlson and Piras es caped without injury. The men were driving toward the city in a light wagon, and in crossing the car tracks got in the way of a west bound car. In the collision the wagon was wrecked and the occupants thrown to the ground. Buck struck upon his head, fracturing his skull, and was dragged along the street so that the left side of his face was badly lacerated. His left eye was destroyed and his cheek torn. Klemish, who is seventy-one years of age, sustained a severe rupture of the abdomen and painful bruises. The two injured men were taken to the city hospital. The physicians say Buch’s condition is precarious, but that Klemish will recover. The street car was in charge of Motorman Charles Windsor and Conductor Thomas Bruley.
