Mr. Taggart took up the fraud order
case Of June 70. 1901, against the Mutual
Provident Company of Jersey City, n.
J., and the letter press copies OF some
supplemental memoranda in the case He
asked whether there was anything to
show that the record was a complete
one. Witness said no, there was nothing
to show it,
Mr.. Taggart submitted to the witness
a typewritten statement and asked
what II was.
Witness identified it as a memoir
andum prepared in the office of the As
sistant Attorney Genera, December o.
1899 relating to the Bachelor Publish
ing Company, Of st. Louis, at the IIhS
of a fraud order hearing. and other pa

CART. He said he merely wanted 10 hIlu
out whether Mr. Worthington Is attack

Mr. Worthington said he thought II
would be shown that as a general rule
the papers sent out from the Assistant
Aftorrav Generals Office did not set
forth the general substance or the evil
dence.
A further inquiry into this, by going
over the department files, was suggested.
I'VE will give you all the privileges OF

for the purpose of clearing up whether
General Tyner followed his rule or not

Killed.
Hoped street car near The Park and
Had His Toes Out on.

son of Mr.. A. Krug, foreman Of the
Michael harness and saddle factory. Of
427 South Fourth street, was serious
~ injured and narrowly escaped be-
ing ground 90 death under string OF
trailers leaving wallace Park yester-
day afternoon about CLOCK.
The boy was standing at the re-
freshment stand station near the
Broadway road and intended TO jump
on the moving cars, en- route TO the
crossing TO take on the baseball
crowd. MotoTman Ziegler did not
stop and the boy attempted TO jump
on anyway aud rs he did, some other
boy who tried to board the cars q, the
same time tripped him up.
The youth fell under the moving
wheels and his right foot was caught
The two middle toes we're taken off at
the first joint, but the boy pulled away
from tho wheels before his legs were
caught.
DIR. Hearn, who was nearby, saw
the boy struggling and ran to him.
He brought him TO the city and dressed
the injury. Motormsu Ziegler did
not know the boy was hurt until he
reached the city. The boy does not
