natural father and mother were arrest

COSTLY To BUMP
COMMISSIONER.

1t does not pay 10 run into a full
fiedged police commissioner if you are
in a wagon At least this was the ex-
perience of J. E. Hopwood, contractor,
residing at 4339 Twenty-fifth street.
Yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock he
bumped into President Leahy. who was
being driven to police headquarters in
the rig of George Boyne, secretary of
the police commission.
The accident occurred at the corner of
Bush street and Van Ness avenue. The
contractor claimed he was in the right
and Police Commissioner Leahy said he
was in the right. The result Of the diff
ference in opinion between the two
gentlemen was that the contractor was
hailed before Chief of Police Dinan.
Surrounded, as he was, by all of the
police dignitaries, the unfortunate con-
tractor gladly pulled forth ive bright
dollars and handed them over as pay
ment for the damage done to the rig
in which Commissioner Leahy was rid

charge.
The four defendants are accused of
having beaten OHea, who was formerly
a bartender for the Wheltons. nearly to
death and then throwing him into the
street to die. The victim was taken to
