Acting Coroner John c. Niemeyer

Mr.. Charles A. Eseecl. who was killed
saturday night by car on the Ports
mouth Street Railway. viewed the
body Sunday morning at the residence
on Fourth street. An adjournment was
taken until 4 o'clock in the afternoon,
when the jury reasSembled at the Po-
ice Station and heard the testimony
of number OF witnesses. Motorman
Grandy repeated the statement made
10 the newspaper men the night be-
fore as TO the accident. Bo-h he and
Conductor Gay were positive that the
car gong was being sounded just be-
fore Mir. Esleecll was struck.
The fact WAS developed that there
were witnesses who had seen Eseeck
shortly before his death. and many
who saw him afterwards hut only
one who saw him meet his death.
This was Motcrman Grandy.

As the jury wished to hear some

Journed until last night, when the
jury again met at the Police Station.
Among several witnesses examined
little was brought out throwing any
light on the situation and the invcsti

After being out for half an hour, the
jury reported the following verdict:
That the deceased came to his death
by being struck by the car in Ports
mouth Street Railway. and though we
believe the car was running al a recll-
less rate of speed. we also believe that
the deceased party contributed to the
accident, causing his death.
