out OF harms way. but before he could get

Policeman Oliver w. Gardiner was run down
in Fifty-ninth street in an attempt to stop q
runaway team. He and Policeman George
Kettler were standing in front OF the New
York Athletic Club at Sixth avenue at noon
when the brewery wagon team. which had
been standing in front OF q cigar store on the
other side OF the avenue. was frightened by an
electric car. as it swung around the curve. and
started on run through Fifty street.
The two policemen rushed for the horses the
moment they started. Kettlsr caught the reins
and Gardiner got his hands on the bride OF
tho nigh horse. The runaways plunged be-
tween the pillars OF the elevated railw way struc-
ture and swung around the Athletic Club cor
ner where two hanson cabs were standing.
On the further one the cabman was sitting
reading. The big wagon slid toward the first
cab and Just cleared 1t, forcing Kettler to let
go the reins.
Gardiner clung to the bride. Tho horse
SHE'D suddenly toward the curb and threw
him against the second cab. He lifted himsel
off his feet and cleared the cab wheel but when
he came down on the other side he sli tipped, lost
his clutch on the bride and fell under the
horses. They plunged forward and the wagon
bumped over the PROSTATE mans thigh. They

The brewery wagon got through the Plaza
without doing any more damage than knock
ing over n delivery wagon or two. Just as the
runaways reached Madison avenue they swung
onto tho crosstown car tracks and drove the
pole Of the wagon into the end Of q car stand
ing there. Then they stopped. The car was
half lifted OF its trucks, and tho fender was
twisted into strange shapes. The pole was
snapped in two. but the big gray horses weren't
