MRS. O'TOOLE's DEATH.
COrOner's Jury Returned Il Simple
Verdict of Death.

Verdict of Death.
The inquest in the case of Mrs
Bridget O'Toole who was run over by
John Straus and died from the effects
of injuries received, was held yesterday
afternoon. Straus was not present at
the investigation and but five witnesses
were examined. DR.. Finnell, who as
sisted at the autopsy, gave the jury a
description of what the post mortem
revealed Donald McCleary, who was
i'll the rig with StraUs at the time of
the accident testified that Stratus, who
was driving, was not intoxicated but
had drank two glasses of beer a short
time before the accident. Mrs. O'ToOle
he said, was about twenty feet ahead
of them when he first saw her. Straus
turned to the right and she did the
same, Straus then turned to the left
and she did the same. Just then she
stopped to pick up a package, and as
she did so the horse struck her. Straus,
he said, could not have stopped in
time to avoid the accident, owing to
the horse being almost on the woman.
Straus was driving at rate of speed
not to exceed six miles an hour They
did not stop after the accident because
Straus was frightened, and during the
race to get away from the pursuers in
the buggy which was. following them,
Straus wanted witness to take the
reins, saying he would go and Jump
off the high bridge.
Daniel DOnaghue, who witnessed the
accident and followed the rig, after
ward said the horse was being driven
at rate of from eight to ten miles an
hour. The driver, he said, had good
control of the horse and could have
passed on either side of Mrs. O'Toole.
as she was about in the middle of
Sixth street and walking as an old
woman would. He told of the efforts of
himself and George Flint to capture
the men after the accident. Mr.. Flint
cOrroborated the testimony of Donag-
hue as to the chase
Thomas Burke, who was sweeping
the street at the time of the accident.
said he saw the horse as it passed over
the woman. The horse was going fast
but no attempt to stop after the ac-
cldent was made. The driver said
something as witness tried to stop him
but he did not know What it was. He
took no notice whether the driver was
intoxicated or not. The jury. after
hearing the evidence. returned the yer
dict, which read as follows:
That Mrs. OToole came to her death by
being run down by single horse and buggy
driven by one Straus, at the corner of Sixth
and Market streets. on the 10Th day of August
and died from said injuries on the goth of
August at the city hospital.
county Attorney Butler said the re-
turning of verdict by the coroner's
jury had nothing to do with the ex-
animation of Straus on a charge of
granddaughter. which would come up in
the police court tomorrow. The cen
surfing. or exoneration of the prisoner
by the jury would have no weight
either one way or another so far as the
trial of the case was concerned.

Colley protests that 1t was nothing at all;

feat, of which few would be capable. Resi-

share Mrs. Johnson's view.
Mrs. Jay s. Johnson's home In Bay Both

that place. Her horses. behind which she
and her daughter Mgnon take the air
each morning. could be driven by no less
expert horSewoman.
Charles Colley Of No. II West 10th street,
this city, who Is working in Bath Beach
tits summer, Is a practiced bicyclist. He
was wheeling up 18th avenue in Bath
Beach yesterday morning when Mrs. john
sons handsome turnout came in sight.
Mrs. Johnson was driving, ana De5lde her
sat her little daughter:
Colley dismounted from his wheel and
stood at the roadside to watch the dashing
euuipage as it swept past. Hardly had the
carriage rolled by when the horses broke
| into a run. In an instant Colley saw that
Mrs. johnson was powerless to control
them.
Leaning on his Wheel the bicyclist put
| forth every energy in race to overtake
| the horses. Fast as they went in their
mad run, the wheelman went faster Soon
| he was even with the carriage, then along
side one of the plunging horses. A burst
! of speed. and he was at the animals
| heads.
| Keeping on, hand on the handlebar, the
bicyclist shot out his arm and seized the
| bride of one of the horses. Still pedaling,
| as he held to the frantic animal, he called
| to the terrified woman and child not to be
| alarmed, but to sit perfectly quiet.
Riding in this fashion. Colley saw that
he was powerless to check the speed Of the
| runaways.
| Grasping the bride with a firmer hold,
| with a mighty effort he kicked his bicycle
from under him, rolling 1t to one side.
Then, with all the strength that was in
| him. he swung to the horses back. Once
| astride the animal. the rest was easy, and
| In q short time the animals were standing
| still. Dismounting, he stood by the horses
| until he had them perfectly quiet. then dis
| gratitude, he returned to his bicycle,
| mounted and rode home.
