KILLED BY A TRAIN.-Howard Fleet,
colored, 16 years old, was killed on the
north causeway of the Long bridge by
an electric train from this city yester-
day afternoon. From the testimony
in the case, the motorman, Mr.. Frank
Hall, VINO was running the train, was
not at fault. The fatality seems to
have been due from the rashness of the
lad Fleet lived with his parents at
Johnson's Hill, in Alexandria county.
one mile from Jackson City. The boy
aud companion, Charlie Terry, 10
years old, went to Washington yester-
day morning and left for home at 8
o'clock. They walked west along
Maryland avenue. At Fourteenth
street they turned south. The ap-
proach to the bridge is divided by 8
high, stout picket fence. On the west
are the roadway and board walk and
on the east the railroad tracks used by
the Alexandria and Mount Vernon
electric railway and the several steam
lines that cross the bridge. That side
OF the bridge used by trains is posted
by danger signs warning pedestrians
not to walk on the tracks. Fleet and
Terry disregarded these warnings and
chose to cross by the east way. The
boys were walking leisurely and did
not seem to be paying especial heed to
the danger signs. Train No. II was
going from this city and the motorman
rang his gong and shouted to the boys,
at the same moment setting the brakes.
Terry stepped safely to one side, but
Fleet was too slow. His foot stumped
against the rail and he sank under the
cars and the train rolled over him.
When the train was brought to stand
still the crew and several passengers
fastened back to the spot where the
boy was cut down, and saw only q
mangled corpse. The Washington po-
lice were convinced of the guiltlessness
of the motorman, and he was released
to appear before the coroner's jury at
the inquest to-day.
