WAS IT PERJURY?
Attorney Anderson Defends Flores
and Barbiere.

Antoine Flores and A. Barbiere were
examined in Justice Henry's court yes
terday on the charge of perjury pre-
ferred by the District Attorney, in con-
nection with the bond given by them in
the case of Eugene Bosquet.
1t will be remembered that the de-
PENDANTS, who are the proprietors Of the
saloon at Second and l. streets, signed a.
bond for $4,000, alleging that they were
worth that sum. They also testified in
Judge Hinkson's court, when cited for
contempt, that their property was worth
that amount Of money.
District Attorney Ryan conducted the
prosecution yesterday. He claimed
that the valuation placed by the de-
PENDANTS on their saloon property
which does not include the premises
was notoriously fictitious, and that the
defendants knew it.
Flores and Barbiere were represented
by w. A. Anderson and E. C. Hart. In
his argument, Mr.. Anderson declared
that the defendants could not have
committed perjury, because there was
no intent on their part to deceive the
court or anyone. Their business
brought them an income of some S4OO
per month, and they considered them
selves worth the amount for which they
signed the bond. When examined in
court they testified to the same effect.
The fact, he said, that the Court did
not agree with them, was no proof that
they were not honest and sincere in
their belief. The proper course to pur-
sue was to reject a proffered bond that
did not seem to the court to be suffi
cient, and to require another and a
better one.
Counsel also contended that the testi-
mony given by the defendants during
their examination for contempt was not
voluntary, and therefore could not be
used against them.
When the case had been submitted,
Justice Henry announced that he would
take the matter under advisement.

A LITTLE GIRLS Sad FATE
Alice BeCketfS Life Crushed Out by a
Street Car.
She Attempted to Run Across the
Track Just in Front
of It.

A little life was crushed out yester-
day morning and little mangled body
lies on slab at the morgue in conSe-
Quence.
Yesterday morning Mrs. William
Beckett, who lives at Nineteenth and
O streets, and whose husband is en-
pLoyed as a painter in Foreman Fitch S
department at the railroad shops, went
out with her little 5-year-old daughter
Alice, wheeling younger child in the
baby buggy. She crossed Nineteenth
street and stopped under tree, in the
shade at Fifteenth, while Alice fingered
behind and was on the opposite side of
the street.
Seeing an electric car approaching,
she called to the little girl to look out
fer the car and run back to the side
walk, but her warning was probably
misunderstood for a call to come
across, as the little child hurried to
get across the track just as the car
came along.
l.. II. HalteTTnan the motorman of the
oar. saw her running and Immediately
reversed the motor and applied the
brake, stopping the car within its own
length. The child became confused and
tried to run around the end Of the car,
but was struck while on the crossing
and instantly killed. her brains being
dashed out. The accident was SO sud
den that there was no possible chance
to avoid it. The car did not run over
the child, and no fender could have
saved her.
An examination of the rails shows
that the motor was reversed a car
length before it arrived at the curb,
as the reversing of the current caused
a peculiar appearance Of the rails
Similar to brazing.
A large crowd of people were soon
On the scene, the news Of the shocking
accident having spread among the peo-
pie for blocks around as fast as tongues
could carry 1t. Kind-hearted women
sought out the wailing, heart-broken
mother of the child, whose mangled
form lay on the green sward, and did
their best to comfort her. Her distress
was heartrending, and many fond
mothers who witnessed her anguish
themselves shed tears over the lifeless
body of the child.
Mr.. Halterman gave himself up to
the police, pending the inquiry into the
death Of the child, although no one
imputes any blame to him. Mrs.
Beckett was taken to a neighboring
house and the child's body was car
Hed under a tree and covered with a
blanket, pending the arrival of her
father, and was afterwards removed to
the Coroner's office.
1t is nearly three years since a fatal
accident has occurred ON the street
car lines. At that time a Portuguese
child was ruQ over over on Third
street, near n, aud killed. The motor
man of the car, although held blame
less, would never run another trip and
threw UP his position. That was, how
ever, before the present management
bought the road and there have been
no serious accidents since until now.
