The car in which they were riding, driven by Raymond Bankert, was proceeding toward Utica at about 6 p. m. on Route 28, and had made a left turn to ascend a hill.

The truck, operated by Harry Beard, Watertown, was coming down the hill. Neither Beard nor his helper, H. W. Ryel, was injured. First aid was given at the scene of the accident by Mrs. Leslie Peterson, a nurse at St. Elizabeth Hospital, who was riding with her husband.

The deceased was born in Ireland, nearly seventy years ago. He came to this country when in middle life and settled in Oriskany Falls where he has resided for more than a quarter century. He was a cooper by occupation and for many years had been employed in that capacity at the brewery of H. Morgan & Co.

Morgan & Co. in the brewery. Yesterday morning just after the regular train passed Oriskany Falls, a wild cat coal train went north. Rhodes had been up town and was returning to his home. He approached the Abbott crossing about the same time the train did. Lawrence Cool noticed his danger and made every effort to warn him, and Engineer Lamphere also blew his whistle but Rhodes [Roach] did not appear to hear either. The cow catcher of the engine struck his legs and threw him about 18 or 20 feet, his head striking the corner of a tie, fracturing his skull badly. He as carried to his home on Broad street, where he was attended by Dr. Pollard, of Oriskany Falls, and Drs. Langworthy and Beebe. They found the skull badly fractured and the tendons of one leg torn. The skull was trephiped [?] and pieces of broken bone about two inches square were taken out, giving him some relief and causing him to breathe easier. Last night Mr. Rhodes [Roach] was still alive, but unconscious, and the doctors did not believe he would live till morning.

Rhodes [Roach] is a native of Ireland and came to this country when he was 40 years old. He has lived in Oriskany Falls ever since. He has a wife, two sons and three daughters. One son is employed in the People's Brewery, Utica, and another is traveling salesman for a Western hardware house. Of his daughters, one lives at Waterville and one at Obittening and another at 62 Charlotte street, Utica.

STRICKEN IN A STREET CAR

AND DIED WITHIN FIVE MINUTES

Mrs. Charles H. Lange, Wife of the Well-Known Shoemaker, Expired in the Store of Risley Bros., Oneida Square, from Fatty Degeneration of the Heart - An Estimable Woman.

Mrs. Charles H. Lange of 130 Dudley avenue, died suddenly in the store of Risley Brothers on Park avenue, near Oneida square, shortly after 8 o'clock, last evening. Mrs. Lange, in company with her 16-year-old daughter, Martha, left her home about 8 o'clock, taking an Eagle street car. The two had arranged to meet Mr. Lange at the corner of Elizabeth and Genesee streets and to go with him to a dime social under the auspices of Bacon Relief Corps. The car was crowded and Mrs. Lange and her daughter were forced to stand. The unsteady motion of the car was especially unpleasant to the young girl who only a week before had received an injury to her hand, which she was obliged to guard with extreme care from contact with other passengers. It is thought that Mrs. Lange's anxiety and solicitude for her daughter was instrumental in part in bringing on an attack of dizziness which made it necessary for her to leave the car when near Oneida square. Martha assisted her into Risley's store and procured a chair for her. Mrs. Lange breathed heavily and grew rapidly worse, dying within about five minutes after entering the room and before Drs. Guillaume and Powell, who were summoned, could reach the place. Dr. Hunt, who made a post-mortem examination, stated that death was due to fatty degeneration of the heart.

The grief-stricken daughter hastened to the corner of Genesee and Elizabeth streets, where she found her father waiting and hysterically informed him of what had occurred. Together the two started for Risley Brothers, where they were joined soon after by Coroner Dodd. The remains were removed to Slawson's undertaking rooms, and after an investigation Coroner Dodd decided that no inquest would be necessary.

Mrs. Katherine Lange would have been 48 years of age had she lived until March 23. She was born in West Leydon and was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Wolf. She lived in Rome for some time, and in 1867 came to Utica, where, on the 30th of September of that year she was married by Rev. Andrew Wetsel to Mr. Lange. She attended the Church of the Redeemer, and was prominent in G. A. R. circles, being a charter member of Bacon Relief Corps. She was greatly devoted to her home and family, a kind and affectionate wife and mother. Her husband, the well known shoemaker, and seven children survive. The children are Mrs. C. P. Taylor of Martinsburg, and Mrs. Katherine Odin, Charles H., jr, John G,. Martha M., Augusta and Irene. Six children have died.

Last July Mrs. Lange suffered an attack of rheumatism and had not been well since. Of late she had been troubled with heart disease, a notable symptom being in difficulty in breathing. The husband and children will have the sympathy of all in their sudden bereavement.

ANOTHER OLD VETERAN GONE

COMRADE C. H. LANGE DEAD

A Creditable Record in the Civil War and Was Prominent in Grand Army Circles-Had Been Out of Health Six Months-Incidents of the War and Other features of His Life.

Charles Henry Lange, well known in Grand Army circles, died at 8:50 last evening. He had been out of health since April last, suffering from dropsy and heart trouble. He had been confined to his bed about two weeks.

Mr. Lange was born in Teuchern, Jurisdiction of Merzeburg on the Saale, Province of Saxony, February 3, 1840. In 1851 he came with his parents to Utica. The father built a house on Tibbits street, corner of Eagle street, where the family resided most of the time since. Mr. Lange learned his trade as a shoemaker in the shop of Col. F. X. Meyers at the corner of South and West streets, and after he had finished his apprenticeship, worked for Sylvester Barringer, John Cantwell and a number of others. In 1856 he left Utica and worked as a journeyman in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and Syracuse. After the war he returned to Utica and worked at shoemaking for Ralph Bronk, When Reynolds Brothers opened their shoe factory at the corner of Genesee and Liberty streets, Mr. Lange entered their employ and he made the first pair of shoes ever turned out by the foreman. He was a trimmer of soles and heels and worked for the firm altogether 16 years. During this time he trimmed over a million pairs of shoes. In 1867 he worked for one season for the firm of Kingsbury, Abbott & Hale of Rome. In 1882 Mr. Lange left the employ of Reynolds Brothers and started a custom and repair shop on Blandina near Genesee street. This has been his occupation since. In 1898 he removed his shop to Charlotte street. While working in the factory he belonged to various labor organizations of shoemakers. Before the war, Mr. Lange belonged to Protection Hose Company, No. 4, and after the war he was in Franklin Hose Company, No. 5, serving altogether six and one-half years in the volunteer fire department. Since 1868 he has been a member of the Exempt Fireman's Association. He was also a member of the Utica Maennerchor. In politics he has always been independent.

Mr. Lange was best known in this community as a member of the Grand Army organizations. In August,1862, while at Syracuse, he enlisted in the 122'nd New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment, Company B, under Captain Chamberlain and Captain Marks. He was first a private and afterward a sergeant. The regiment to which he belonged was attached first to the Army of the Potomac and later to the army of Western Virgina. Mr. Lange served all through the war from August 1, 1862, to June 23, 1865, when he was mustered out, receiving his final discharge July 3 of the same year. His record as a soldier was a good one and quite eventful. He took part in the battles of Antietam, South Mountain, Fredricksburg, being present on the 2d day of May, 1863 when the heights of Fredericksburg were captured. After being in smaller engagements he went to the Shenandoah Valley, where he fought at Monocracy, Harper's Ferry, Winchester, Fisher's Hill, Cedar Creek, the Wilderness, Spottsylvania and other places. He was the first man to see the approach of Sheridan on the latter's famous ride and remembered the event well. He said that pictures of Sheridan on his ride always made him tired, for the reason that they represent that general wearing his hat. He said that from July to Christmas, during which time he served under Sheridan, He never saw that officer with a hat on his head. At the battle for Spottsylvania he saw Gen. Sedgwick killed.

On returning to Utica Mr. Lange joined Bacon Post of the Grand Army, and after being in it some years organized Reynolds Post. Later he helped organize Harrer Post in which he has served the longest. He had held all the offices in Harrer Post except chaplain, and for 14 terms was the officer of the day. Three times he served as delegate to the department encampment and was once aide-de-camp on the staff of the department commander. In his connection with the Grand Army he had considerable to do with the disbursing of charity. Mr. Lange was very well known in Grand Army circles and attended all the Grand Army meetings of note. While he made no pretensions to oratory, he was a very earnest speaker and entered into all the festivities and other projects of the organization with great enthusiasm.

September 30, 1867, he married Catherine Wolfe of Rome, who died March 3, 1899. Of 13 children, seven survive, They are Mrs. C. P. Taylor of Martinsburg, Lewis county, Mrs. Catharine Odin of Syracuse, Charles H., jr., of Utica, John O., U.S.A., Martha of Rochester, Augusta, and Irene of Utica: of grandchildren he leaves four, Mr. Lange also leaves three sisters, Mrs. Emma Brace, Mrs. Henry E. Desmond and Mrs. E. W. Owens, all of Utica. Mr. Lange attended Zion's Lutheran church for many years, but since 1896 had been a member of the Church of the Redeemer.

TRAIN MUTILATES BRAKEMAN

JOHN G. LANGE FATALLY INJURED

Utica Railroad Man is Run Over by Freight Train Near Canastota and Succumbs to Injuries in Hospital Few Hours Later--Believed He Fell Asleep While Sitting on Tracks in Rear.

Canastota, July 13 – John Gutlieb Lange, 35 of Utica, a New York Central brakeman, died at the Canastota hospital early this afternoon from injuries he received when struck by the engine of a west bound Central freight train, a mile west of Canastota, at 8:20 o’clock this morning. The body will be taken to Utica, where the funeral will be held at the home of his sister, Mrs. Etta Ringleka, 133 Cooper St, at an hour to be decided upon later.

Lange, who had lately boarded in East Syracuse, was flagman on a pushing engine, operating on the grades west of Canastota. His train, a long east bound freight, stopped just west of Canastota. and Lange left his engine for rear end flag service. He sat on the rails of track three and apparently fell asleep, for he paid no attention to the screeching whistle of the west bound freight engine as it bore down upon him.

Lange, badly mutilated but conscious, was picked up and put aboard a west bound passenger train, just pulling out of Canastota, which was backed into the station. He was removed to the Canastota Hospital. Dr. Rommel amputated the right leg and set a communated fracture of the left leg. Lange had also a fractured skull and internal injuries. Little hope was held out for him from the start.

In Canastota after the accident Lange seemed to realize it was all up with him. "I am going to die" he said repeatedly.

John Gutlieb Lange was born in Utica, April 13, 1881. a son of the late Charles H. and Catherine Wolfe Lange. During the Spanish-American war he served in Company B. of Utica, and the Forty – first United States Volunteers, and saw actual fighting in several battlers. Following the war he served the regular army as trumpeter. He was a member of the Fifty-second Company of Coast Artillery. He was stationed for some time at a fort just outside of New Bedford, Mass.

Mr. Lange lived at New Bedford until about four years ago, when he moved to East Syracuse. He was a member of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, the Untied Spanish War Veterans, the Fraternal Order of Eagles and the Improved Order of Red Men in New Bedford. He married about 13 years ago Miss Edith Robertson of New Bedford, who survives with two children, Lillian and Dana, who resided in New Bedford. He also leaves five sister, Mrs. W. E.

DIED SUDDENLY IN HALLWAY

IRVING MESSENGER, A CIGARMAKER

Belayed With Illness on Genesee Street and While Being Assisted to a Doctor's Office He Had a Hemorrhage Which Caused Death-His Home was at 446 Seymour Ave.

About 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon a man went into Howarth and Ballard's drug store on Genesee street, He said he was ill and wanted a doctor. The Clerks started to take him to the office of Dr. Stephens on the floor above, in the hallway the man sank down. He had a hemorrhage. It was found that Dr. Stephens was not in. Dr. Douglas was summoned and when he arrived the sufferer was breathing his last. The ambulance, which was in waiting to take him to a hospital, took him instead to G. Lankton on Columbia street. A great crowd of people assembled, but not one was able to identify the man. Later it was discovered that his name was Irving Messenger, and that his home was at 446 Seymour avenue. He was a cigarmaker by trade, being in the employ of Stevens Lockart. He left his work in their factory shortly before 5 o'clock and was on his way home when the fatal illness seized him.

Mr. Messenger usually returns home about 5 o'clock and when he did not come last evening his wife and oldest child, May, aged 13 years, went looking for him They heard of a man ill in Dr. Douglas' office and went there and inquired. When told of the death of Mr. Messenger there was a pathetic scene. The undertakers had in the mean time broken the news at his home where his mother and grandmother were with the other children. Coroner Dodd, after investigating the case decided that no inquest was necessary. He learned that Messenger had been in ill health for several years and had suffered hemorrhages on previous occasions. The deceased was in his 44'th year. He was born in Westfield, Conn*., but had lived in Utica for the past 27 years. He was a member of the Cigarmakers' Union.
