DRIVE
TOO FAST

Frank p. weeden was tried and found
not guilty In the Sixth district court to-
day on the charge of fast driving OF an
automobile, when on Hamilton street.
Sept 18th.
On that day Frank Higney was riding
a BICYCLE on Converse street and was
proceeding toward Hamilton street
AT the intersection OF those thorough
fares the auto and the bike was together.
with the result that Higney's right leg
was quite severely injured.
Weeden had charge OF the auto, In
which two ladies were riding.
After the evidence was in. Judge Sweet
land ruled that the witnesses who had
testified as to the speed OF the auto had
not observed the vehicle a sufficient
length OF time TO have formed a reliable
judgment on that point; also that other
evidence submitted by the prosecution
was not sufficiently clear.
Weeden was therefore adjudged not
guilty and ordered to be discharged
from custody.
