OF INTEREST TO WHEELMEN.

The increasing frequency OF bicycle acct
dents has called forth some observations
from Coroner Tuthill OF New York that
,wheelmen will appreciate. 1t was at the
inquest over the death of New York rider
who had been killed by plugging over the
unguarded Georges road on the Palisades.
In his charge Coroner Tuthill had this
to say:
1T is the opinion Of the coroner that acct
dents attending the use of t he bicycleas We
hiCle. either for pleasure or business, are not
receiving the amount o T serious consideration
which they demand aud which Is accorded TO
cases of accidents in connection with other
vehicles The coroner is impressed with the
fact that in private and official life he gen
eral feengsand sentiment regarding bicycle
accidents have been and are about the same
as that manifested oward accidents attend
ing skating. swimming. and hunting. and
other well recognized hazardous pastines
The use OF the bicycle should not he so re-
garded.' After giving some statistics rs
tothe commonuse ofthe wheel. hecontnued:
The increasing number of accidents to
wheelmen which are coming to the notice of
the cOrOnPr'S office has impressed me with
the necessity of making special mention of
the subject to you, gentlemen of the jury"
me coroner then spoken detail of the case
In hand
The verdictOf the Jury wasthat death was
due to an accidental fall, owing to the i'm
properly constructed or guarded roadway
ana we also direct the attention OF the au-
thorltleS to the fact that no sign is posted
warning travellers of the proper direction
to pursue and the danger of the road"
Another hicyClist was injured al the same
place on Sunday last.
