Clinton, Jan. 11-Frank Zak, whose home was at Oxford Junction , was run down by a passenger train here yesterday morning and died an hour later. But little was known about the man, and he became unconscious soon after the accident. However, he was able to tell his name and place of residence, and that he was on his way to Moline, where he had secured employment. Coroner Hullinger will hold an inquest today.
