Coroner hewitt over the remains of VIII
liam Bolden. the negro who died under
mysterious circumstances at FreeIrlan's
Hospital late Sunday night. and whose

vestigating, for the purpose Of ascer-
tanning whether the mans death was
caused by fall or blow; and a verdict
OF death by accident was returned.
A score or more OF witnesses were ex-
amined, but their testimony, with the
exception Of two. was Of little value
OF these two, however, William Wash
ingtOn. negro youth who lived in the
same house with Bolden. at Naylor's
Alley northwest. testified interestingly
He said that he saw the dead man at
home Sunday night and that when he
asked him who cut his head. Bolden
stated that sam Stewards bartender had
done it,"
Washinston's testimony was corrob-
GRATED By his grandmother, Eliza Waters
The other witnesses in substance stated
there had been no fight to their knowledge
in Stewards saloon.
Considerable amusement was created
during the hearing By he actions of John
Cutler, negro. who picked Bolden M
from the floor. When cross examined by
Assistant District Attorney D. W GIas-
sic. Cutler became indignant. and made
his answers in very abrupt manner.
Upon finishing his statement he said.
4 amt no fOOl-Tse niger, but Use
ceTtUniy got sense" the last sentence
causing a ripple OF laughter among the
juTymcn.
The remains Of the dead man viii be
taken in charge by his relatives and ar
rangements made for the funeral.

charged with being Migrants. The man
was discharged and the woman sent 20
the House OF Detention to undergo an
examination as TO her sanity.
The case OF the Barnes couple proved
a very unusual one. They came to
Washington from Kansas City about
seven years ago. Il is said that they
have t~o sons who at one tine held good
positions in the Government service. who
were driven out by the alleged cranki-
ness Of the parents, and who have dis
appeared from the city -
Barnes has recently. been eklng out an
existence for himself and wife by selling
newspapers. The couple have been set
out OF their home on several occasions
for alleged n-payment Of rent. and last
Friday they were put out OF their last
abode on First Street northwest. Since
that time. until their arrest. II vas said.
they have been camping on the parking
opposite the Peace Monument. This Hv-
ing out. it vas further said, was purely
optional with them, and was due 70 pride.
Mr. Andrew Wilson. a leading member
OF the Vermont Avenue Christian Church,
certified that Barnes and his wife were
members Of that congregation. He said
that when he heard that they had been
put into the street he went to them and
offered 10 provide rooms for them. but
that Mrs Barnes scornfulIy declined his
aid saying she would not be degraded by
accepting charity, and Barnes, whom he
described as being thoroughly devoted.

attitude. they had en- former occasions

Legal Advice Taken.

Mr.. Foster stated that the club had
taken legal advice in the matter. and that
be had been instructed 20 announce that
in their opinion the. regulations as they
stand applying alone to mechanical
vehicles would not stand before the
courts. He thought the courts wouId take
the groUnd that the law was one OF dis
crinination against a class Of vehicles.
and would on that account cause "a 20 be
revoked.
Attention was called to the manner. in
which many operators leave their vehicles
al the curb. He said that when they are
let standing with the wheels parallel with
the curb or turned outward there was
danger that the machine might be started
and become dangerous runaway vehicle.
Mr.. Foster said that il would be well 20
have some sort Of a regulation requiring
the vehicle 10 be left with the wheels
turned inward toward the sidewalk. when
the danger would be principally avoided
on account Of the rise Of the curb which
would act as an effectual break upon the
machine in starting
