Kelly, who had charge of the car that
struck the Presidents carriage yester-
day. Not more than fifty persons were
present. The casexwas not even called,
and after a conference between counsel
for the street railway men and the court,
it was agreed to postpone the matter: for
two weeks. Bail of $1,000 for Madden and
$500 for Kelly was given. The presiding
Judge was Joseph Tucker, president of

have given place to an associate. It is
believed that two weeks hence another

the preliminaries and action by the grand
Jury, If the case should come before it,
will take up so much time that actual
trial will not be reached before jan
uary.
