respondence.) Contractor George Hol-
loway met with a sad accident this after
noon at about half-past o'clock while
returning from the Knight of Pythias
exercises at Santa Monica. Holloway
who is lieutenant of the Uniform rank
was sitting on the step of the crowded
Santa Monica car, next to Captain P.
A. Collins. Just how the accident hap

that Holloway stretched out his legs to
ease them just at time when the car
was passing a cattle guard at the side
of the track between Los Angeles and
Santa Monica. His feet struck this
guard and he was thrown from the car.
Captain Collins called to the motorman
; to stop and then ran back to pick Hol-
loway up. He was found lying almost
lifeless at the side Of the track, his hands
and legs bloody and feet horribly man
gled. He was raised into the car and
taken to Los Angeles. where it was
found that his right foot was crushed
and cut nearly off, while the big toe of
the left foot was also crushed. A spe-
cial car was sent down and he was
brought to the receiving hospital here
in charge of the Electric roads ply
sician, DR.. Hodge. The right foot had
to be removed at a point four inches
above the ankle. and the toe of the other
foot was removed. Holloway has many
friends here who express the utmost re-
gret for the accident. The injured man
and his brother live at the Star house
IH,,tr
land and have no near relatives here.
