place at 1880 o'clock. The party had
taken the shore drive on it's way 70
Whitefsh Bay, where a dinner had
been arranged. The story of the &C
cident. as told by an eyewitness, is as
follows:
Mr.. Uihlein's autoiaohile was COM
ing around the corner ius. north of the
lighthouse. He was going all of twenty
miles per hour. Another automobile
was going in the opposite direction and
a carriage was ahead. Mr. Uihlein
took the corner at full speed. AS he
turned he saw that he could not make
it without a collision. He put on
the brakes as hard as he could. AS he
did this the machine slowed sideways.
It was going so fast that it could not
stay upright while sliding. The result
was that it was turned over with the
six passengers underneath.
Zone cannot realize how miraculous
the escape of the party was without
having seen it, / fully expected that
some of them were killed and all bad
ly injured. / rushed up and helped pull
the women from under the car. None
seemed hurt in the east. Beyond
little dust on their dresses, there was
no damage. How they managed to
escape as they did, especially when the
speed of the machine and the sharp
curve is considered, is more than can
understand"
Those in Mr.. Uihlen's automobile
walked TO the car line and proceeded
to Whitefish Bay in a street car.
Those in Mr.. Brumder's car went on
out the Whitefish Bay road.
Mr.. Uihlein's machine, a $4,000
Peerless, was badly damaged. Repairs
will amount to over $1,000. The ma
chine was brought back to the city in
a dray.
II is said that those in the automo-
bile when it turned over were Miss
Lemp, Miss Dewey, Miss Rogers and
Mrs. Otto Falk. Hugo Hansen is said
to have been in the driver seat with
Mr. Uihlein. The women were in the
large tonneau.
The accident from which the party
so miraculously escaped did not inter
fere with the pleasure planned for the
dinner party at Whitefish Bay. The
Uihlein party arrived a little behind
time, but sufficiently early to sit down
with the others. None considered
the accident seriously.
