RAN DOWN A WHEBLMAE.
One Of TIL ese Boulevard Bicycle Cases
Up In the Criminal Court.

Up in the Criminal Court.
Between $50 and 10 o'clock on the night
of June 20, William S. Jewkes and his
wife Annie. of No. ISL Montgomery street,
were taking a spinSon Their wheels along
the Boulevard. They were going south
and rode near the westerly curb. Frederick
Klatt and a party of four men were
out that same night in Klatt's surrey.
Klatt was speeding the horse. He drove
up behing Mrs. Jewkes and urged his
horse along until the shafts of the surrey
struck her and pitched her off the wheel.
She fortunately escaped with a sprained
ankle but her wheel was wrecked. Klatt
was tried in the General Sessions Court
today for assault and battery and was de-
Tended by Senator Daily.
Mrs. Jewkes was called to the witness
stand first, but she had tainted and had
to be taken to a drug store. Her hus-
band was then called to the stand, and
it was discovered that Judge Hudspeth
was not on the bench. He had gone into
Chambers TO hold a consultation with
Justice Lippineott. When he returned,
which had already been taken during his
absence.
Mr.. Jewkes testified that his wife
tainted and was taken to a drug store.
Kart, who had been arrested, was
aiken there to be identified and was very
abusive.
Mrs, Jewkes c~orroborated the story
told by her husband. AS the shaft struck
her on the side, Hiatt said, Look out
there, grille"
The shaft struck her handle bar and
pitched her off.
senator DAILY asked the Court to direct
an ~acquittal on the ground that no negls-
gence or cr.minality had been shown.
Judge Hudspeth refused to do SO.
Klatt's defence was that his horse got
shy and he was trying to pass Mrs.
,TcWkes. She Wobbled over toward his
wheel that struck the bicycle.
Mr.. Fake, of the men driving with
Klatt. testified that Mr.. Jewkes and his
wife collided with each other and Mrs.
Jewkes fell off before the surrey got
near them. He was also positive that the
surrey did not run over Mrs. Jewkes's
wheel, although every other witness tes-
titled that it did.
Senator Daily again asked the Court to
was again refused.
A hot controversy took place between
Prosecutor Winfield and Senator DAILY. In
summing up, Mr.. Winfield designated
Senator DAILY protested against Mr..
Winfield's language, and appealed to the
Court to protect his client.
81 don't take back one word I said"
exclaimed Mr.. Winfield.
This gentleman is not a brute" ex-
claimed the Senator, "he is as respectable
as any other man."
"As any other man from Hoboken," re-
torted the Prosecutor. 81 say he is a
brute"
Then you are not a gentleman, sir .
replied the Senator.
The ~disputants were glaring at each
other, and what might have occurred can
only be surmised as Judge Hudspeth
the controversy TO cease. The Jury is
considering the case.

Protection of New Ravens Grand Old
EIms-Action of the Club.
The following resolutions, adopted at
a recent meeting of the advisory board
of the Good Government club, are to be
presented to the board Of councilnen
at their meeting this evening:
Whereas, The board of aldermen at
their meeting of April voted to appro-
pirate five thousand dollars to defray
the expense of spraying the elm trees
of the city in order to protect them
against the ravages of the elm beetle;
and.
Whereas, All experts agree that care
full and thorough spraying is the only
efficient means of saving our trees from
the destruction which the beetles are
sure to cause if left to themselves;
Resolved, That the advisory board
of the Good Government club of New
Haven respectfully petition the board
of councilmen to concur in the vote of
the board of aldermen at their next
meeting in order that no time may be
lost in preparing for a piece of work
which we believe to be essential to the
preservation of one of the chief glories
| of our city.
