MAY PROVE A
FATAL ACCIDENT
AGED NATIVE MAN KNOCKED
DOW NBY ELECTRIC CAR AND
PROBABLY FATALLY INJURED.

Kalawai an aged native man, lies in
a precarious condidation at the Queens
Hospital, suffering from the effects of
injuries sustained by being struck by
an electric car this morning at the
corner of Richard and Hotel street. He
sustained a hemorrhage of the brain
and the physicians at the hospital do
not think that there is much chance
for his recovery.
The accident occurred this morning
about 8 o'clock. Inasmuch as Kala-
wal has been unconscious ever since
the accident, 1t has not been possible
to secure any statement from him. The
circumstances go to indicate that he
was deaf and did not hear the car ap-
preaching. The left side of his head
appears to have been struck by the
car or else by the fender for there was
a wound made on that side of the head
The skull was not fractured.
Several men at the Hotel hack stand
who were in the vicinity at the time
of the accident, say that the old man
was crossing the track and was struck
by the car. The fender held the old
| man but his clothes in some manner,
got caught on the fender and he rolled
off onto the ground after being carried
some distance. The patrol wagon
! took the injured man to the hospital.
