said to have been violating the speed reg
ulation. The commissioners have taken
no action in the matter. The stories
which were printed in the daily papers,
of the incident are referred to, and,
while Mr.. Mann does not accept all they
said for gospel truth, he 'predicates his
remarks upon the hypothesis that the ac-
count was correct"
Il can conceive nothing which tends
more to breed disrespect Of the law
than the exhibition OF disregard for it
on the part of those to whose administra-
ton It is confided.' said Mann.
1t was pointed out that the object of
the police in stopping the automobile was.
not to arrest the driver. but merely to.
warn him against further scorching. Ac-
cordlng to the accounts of the incident
the President took the blame and this
being the case the matter was allowed
to drop.
