within few minutes after reaching the in

The inquest was held in the morgue this

boy had been playing on sand pile, he
testified, and as the wagon passed, the boy
ran against it and fell under the wheels.
The driver of the vehicle at once stopped

and went to where a new building was be-
ing erected and found the child lying on a
shutter on porch, and seemingly in

and fell under the wagon wheels.

TRIAL BOARD MEETS,
Testimony in Case Of Policeman J. B.
Lipscomb.

41pSCOmD.
The police trial board today began taking
testimony in the case of Policeman ]. B.
Lipscomb of the seventh precinct, who is
charged with unlawfully using his pistol in
shooting a boy, Daniel Boyle. as the latter
was running away from him near the Con-
duit road Sunday, July 30.
p DR.. Michael j.. Raedy the first witness
called, testified that he was summoned to
the Georgetown University Hospital July
20. where he found the boy Daniel Boyle
The latter, he said, was wounded in the
knee, and at a subsequent operation a bull
let was located and extracted and the knee
cap and surrounding muscles were badly
shattered. DR.. Raedy gave it as his opin-
ion that Boyle might be able to walk again,
but that he would never have the use of
the knee joint.
Darlington, counsel for Lipscomb, brought
out the fact that the bullet had taken a
slightly upward course.
Thomas E. Drake. superintendent of in
surance, D. c., and Thomas P. Kane dep
uty controller of the currency United
States treasury, who happened to be pas
sengers on Cabin John car returning to
the city, stated that they witnessed the
pursuit of Boyle by Lpscomb and both
said they the policeman draw his re-
volver, aim it toward the fleeing boy and
saw the latter fall the noise of the car
having drowned the sound of the shot. Both
Y
from the policeman when the shot was
fired. Evidence along the same line was
given by John M. Perry motorman of the
trolley car and he expressed the opinion
that the shooting was deliberate. Perry
said that Lipscomb did not stumble while
pursuing Boyle.
Attorney Crandall Mackey, representing
young Boyle's interests and Attorney Car
rington engaged in spirited argument con-
corning the form of answer to the question
whether Boyle was standing still or running
away when the shot was fired. Perry in
sisted that Boyle had turned around so that
he faced Lipscomb.
The trial board brought with 1t the deposit
ton taken from Boyle in the GEORGETOWN
hospital, in which the wounded boy told the
story of the shooting, stating that he and
several other boys were coming down Con-
duit road in a buggy, and that one of the
hats was blown Off and he Boyle) started to
get it. Boyle said he asked Policeman Lips
comb to get the hat, and the latter replied:
'Ill get the hat and you, too" The pursuit
followed and Boyle declared that Lipscomb
shouted stop, or I will shoot you'
stopped and as 1 turned he shot me
in front" said Boyle. Then the police
man came over to me and said Did 1 shoot
YOU and / said. You can see you have
shot me- then he said. did not go to
shoot you"
Details of the shooting as witnessed from
the trolley car were contained in the tes-
tmony given by Arthur l.. West Thomas
E. Ferguson. Mrs. Lillian Shaffer and Pat
rick Kelliher,
keillher was one of the young men in the
buggy with Boyle during the drive along
Conduit road. and he declared that there
was no disorder or fast driving, or anything
that would have justified the policeman in
pursuing or arresting any of them At
this point adjournment was taken until next
Monday at 1 o'clock.
