Mr.. Ellis has just returned on the

Prison Commission in Atlanta to see
what disposition was to be made Of her
son. who has been given a sentence OF
six years for voluntary manslaughter,

the central figure in the investigation
of the death of Kent j. Loomis, who
last June mysteriously disappeared
from the deck of the Kaiser Wilhelm.
Ellis visited Abyssinia several years
ago and made so favorable an impress

had much to do with inducing the
State Department to make a CONNER
cial treaty with Menelik II. 1t was
said that he desired to deliver the
document himself, expecting thereby to
increase his Abyssinian prestige. The
authorities thought best, however, to
intrust the treaty to Kent j. Looniis,
who became the travelling companion
of Ellis on trip to the realm of Meme

CLOSE CALL ON NORTH
 MAIN ST. TROLLEY LINE
Man Attempted to Board Rapidly Moving Garlic Was Thrown to the Ground and Cut and Bruised Trolley Crew Stopped Car and Took Injured Man to Dr. RenediCts Office

William Clark, an employe of the H. w. Keeler Go, plumbers and tin ners, South Main streer, was badly cut up in trolley accident on North Main street at 1 o'clock to-day. Two
 cars were approaching Elizabeth street at lively rate, and Clark hailed the first one. The motorman indicated to him to take the rear car. Whether he understood the gesture is yet a question: At all events he sprang for the rear step of the car and caught the rail. The rate the car was going down the hill was too much TOT Clark ana he was thrown to the ground. Oven and over he rolled and before he stopped the car crew had changed the trolley pole, reversed the power, run back and picked him up. He was placed inside and taken with all possl> ble speed to Dr ,Benedict's office, where his wounds were dressed. Had he been thrown between the rails in. stead of outside them he would have been run over. for the rear ear was quite close to the first one when the accident occurred. Clark's wounds consist of bruises and cuts all over the face and eyes.
