Ho Apparently Ran Down y Woman Bicyciist
Intentionally.
The Justices of Special Sessions decided yes
terday by a divided vote that II wns proper to
prefer a charge Of assault against truck drivers
who delight in running down bicy clists. rather
than to try them on tho lesser charge of violat.
Ing n corporation ordinance, or of reckless
driving.
William Haley OF SOB West Thirty-sixth
street. an express wagon driver, was the indi.
vidual who was tho victim Of tho test case. He
was charged with having run down on Tuesday
night Mrs. Elizabeth Berry OF 3O5 East Seventy
Slxty.fourth street. The bicycle was smashed
and Mrs. Berry was badly bruised.
The Testimony WINS that Haley, after APP
parently running Mrs. Berry down intention
ally, drove away as fast as his horses could 60,
without waiting to see what damage had been
had been entirely her fault, as she had run into
his wagon.
Presiding Justice Hinsdale and Associate Jus
tice jerome believed that Haley was guilty Of
assault. Justice Hayes. howcvcr, maintained
that IL was merely a case OF a corporation ordi-
nance tel ng violated and that q charge OF as
sault was too severe. Justice Hinsdale in pass
Ing sentence said:
I'm inficting this punishment upon you,
Haley. we hope IL will operate to restrain rock
less driving. 1t IL not because you arc so much
more criminal than others. but because you
have boon tried and convicted. II II becomes
lntors when they infringe SO grossly on tho
rights OF Others In the streets. Expressmen
have no exclusive rights 10 the streets. and we
necessary. You will pay a 6ne Of $50 or serve
twenty days in the city prison."
Haley paid the fine.

C. r. Muntington's stepson Accused OF Assault
Cycling TO Blame.
Archibald NJ. Huntington. stepson of Coils p.
Huntington, was a prisoner in Morrisnnia Court
yesterday. He 10 tall, broad-shouldcred. and 81
years old. He rides a bicycle. and this caused
his arrest.
Ono of the finest roads in tho annexed district
leads out to tho Huntington mansion. On Aug.
3 Dennis Ward, aged 81 years, and Daniel
Cahill, aged IS years, were engaged mending
this road when Archibald Huntington rode up
on his wheel. Ward says his back was turned
toward the wheel at the time, and that young
Huntington bumped into him without ringing
the bell or signalling In any way.
When he turned 10 demonstrate he says Hun
tington sN ore ct him, struck him. and. wrench
ing tho rake he had been using from his hand,
slung II across tho road.
Cahill corroborates his follow workers story
and adds that he told Huntington that no ought
not attack so old n man. Thercupon. he ayers.
Huntington attacked him. and. wrcnching tho
hoe from MIN. threw 1t as far as he could. Then
he remounted his wheel and rode away.
Later on tho road members complained to
Capt. Frers, and Ward WAS advised to apply for
n warrant. Magistrate Mott issued q warrant
and Huntington was arrested. He was bnilod
w. c. Demming of West Chester. Tho exam
ination was adjourned yesterday until Tues.
day. and, Huntington was released under tho
same bail.
According to his version OF tho episode no
rang his boil. and both men saw him approach
ing, but stubbornly blocked the way until II was
impossible to avoid running into one or the
other.
They resented this with uplifted rnkes, and he
was Obliged to disarm them to AVOID personal
injury. He says he took their rakes away far
enough to insure their not being used against
him. but that he did not strike either OF the
men.
