Testifies at the Inquest Over Death of
W. c. Craig

A dispatch from Pittsfield Mass. yes-
terday says: Gov. w. Murray Crane testi-
ned today at the inquest into the death of
William c. Craig, the secret service officer
His appearance was somewhat in the
nature of a surprise
In his evidence the governor said that in
company with President Roosevelt and
George b. Cortelyou. secretary to the
president, he was driving on South street
on the day of the accident and was nea ring
the foot of Howard Hill, when he heard
the gong OF the approaching car At that
time the leading horses were on the track.
ana he quickly arose to his feet to see how
close the car was to the carriage He was
oumIounded to lind that the car was only
snort distance away, and that 1t was ap-
proaching at very fast rate of speed
The governor could not tell Just how the
COLLISION occurred. He remembered moth
ing as to how he was thrown and only re-
membered assisting the President from the
carriage.
Among other witnesses was Mrs Ellen
ID Horton. passenger on the car Mrs
Horton said the car was running at a fair
rate OF speed when the collision occurred
She sat on the front seat. directly behind
the mOtorman. As the car approached the
Presidents carriage the greater portion of
the passengers stood up to get good view
of the occupants OF the carriage Suddenly
'Oh, my God" He then jumped to the
brakes, and worked, as she said, as she
never saw man work before.
In all sixteen witnesses were examined
today. The inquest was adjourned until
Monday at 10 g. m.

Some Strenuous Acts.

Some of the acts of Gov. Shepherd while
ne was the vice president of the board of
public works We're very strenuous and
aroused much ill-feeling against him on
the part Of those whose interests were af-
fected. Two instances of this character
may be mentioned. One was the tearing
UP OF the tracks Of the Washington and
Alexandra railway which came around
from the Baltimore and Ohio station to
where the peace monument now is. These
tracks We're ripped up during the night by
Mr.. Shepherds orders, and there was a
great hue and cry over the act by the rail-
road people
Another instance was the destruction of
what was then known as the Northern. Lib
erty market house, which was located on
the government reservation between 1th
and 9th streets and New York avenue and
X street northwest, where the new public
library has been erected. The market was
a frame structure, quite old and dilapidat-
ed, and an effort had been made to get
those who controlled 1t to abandon IT and
seek some other location. In fact. they
were ordered to vacate the reserva ton be-
cause 1t was the property of the United
states government, but no heed was paid
to the order. Accordingly one morning early
Mr.. Thos. M. Plowman who was the as
sistant Inspector of buildings, took a large
force of men and raZed the building to the
ground. Many of the hucksters had come in

ask the Court for annexation to the
Delaware county seat. A petition

that Japan had signiiied her intention
of placing all her arsenals at the dis

to the Anglo-Japancse alliance, is not

yards for making repairs to British
