Last Wednesday what might
have been Il fatal accident occurred
to orr Chief of Police Haley Car
ter. He was driving down Wash
lngton street in his patrol wagon
and nearing the Salt Mine switch
engine and three cars coming to-
wards him, his horse became
frightened and unmanageable, he
was obliged to jump to save him
self Just as the cars came along
side, his horse and vehicle were
thrown in u heap, the animal fall
ing on Mr. Carter piuning him to
the ground between the horse and
cars, Mr.. James Finney, police
man, and Mr.. Oscar Dupre extri-
Gated chief Carter from his peril
GUS position without any harm be-
ing done him, his horse however
sustained a broken leg rendering
him useless. So long as Washing
ton street is used for city street
accidents are liable to occur. The
railroad company should use some
means to prevent the recurrence OF
what might have been horrible
catastrophe. Flagmen or gates
should be employed for the pur.
pose. A little care on the part OF
the engineer could have averted
the accident.
