JAPANESE CRUSHED AT HARRISON QUARRIES

WILL RECOVER FROM INJURIES Caught In Fast Revolving Fly Wheel and Thrown to Ground - Taken to Queen's Hospital Where Injuries Are Dressed Tokio, a Japanese employed at the Harrison stone quarries at Kaimuki, met with an accident yesterday which for a time was believed to have been fatal. The man was engaged at work about the stone crusher, and in some unaccountable manner was caught in a fast revolving fly wheel, and before the machinery could be brought to a stop, he was thrown to the ground with great force and sustained serious injuries. The Japanese received four cuts above the head. His thigh was also badly fractured. He was conveyed in a hack to the Queen's Hospital where his injuries received attention. The man was considered out of danger last night. He will recover.
