DUE TO CARELESSNESS
Jury Returns verdict in Death of
Mrs. Pattison.

Kansas City, June ia jury sum-
moned by the county coroner returned
a verdict yesterday that Mrs. Nellie D.
Pattison, wife Of c. H. Pattison, came
to her death through the earelessness
of the driver of the Pattison motor
car. Leo Phillips, and of Harry Emke
and w o. Rush, motormen of east and
west bound street cars on Fifth street.
The verdict of carelessness was
caused by the belief In the minds of
west bound street car were racing.
The testimony of DR.. Bostell, the only
man who stood in the left side of the
vestibule where he could see the mo-
tor car. was. positive in his assertion
that it was a race between the two.
Many friends called at the Pattison
home to extend sympathy. Mr.. Pat
tison was not injured in the accident
except for a bruise on his right hip
and one on his hand. His daughter
Eloise had a small cut under the right
eye
IF anyone was to be blamed" " Mr..
Pattison said. 1T was the motorman
who, I think, increased his speed when
we came up alongside of the west
bound car. I do not know that he did
this, but I think SO. We were not rae
ing. We had been getting the dust
from the street car for quite a While
and the chauffeur decided to pull over
in the south side of the street. We did
not go to the north. or right side. be-
cause the street is too rough there for.
a motor car.
Phillips. my chauffeur. has always
been very careful We never had to
caution him. Another thing: I did not
tell him TO increase his speed. I didn't
say word to him. He was running
the car"
The funeral Of Mrs Charles H. Patti
son was held today at 2 o'clock from
the Pattison residence 1886 Warwick

charge of the service.

Bradstreet's says:
Trading and industry conditions are
satisfactory, considering the season of
the year. the main point being that busi-
ness in general is not only of average
proportions, but is in many lines quite
IN excess of that a year ago. Railway
earnings are very large, the increase for
May being over "A per cent thus
stamping the month as the best May on
record.
Building is active, hence immediate
demand for hardware and materials in
general Is well maintained, though yell
low pine displays some weakness. Prices
in commodities in general are, however,
close to the record level. At San Fran
cisco conditions are steadily improving.

COS weekly Review OF Trade says:
A moderate reduction in commercial
activity Is to be expected at this time
OF the year, but confidence in the fu-
ture is SO strong that there Is evident
reluctance to assume seasonably quiet
conditions This attitude is most pro-
nounced in the industrial world, pre-
psrations for fall and winter distrfbu-
ton being on an unprecedented scale,
and several leading producers an
nounoe that the customary summer
shut down viii be entirely omitted or
curtaiied except where necessitated by
repairs. The heavy movement of mer-
chandfse is attesJed by an increase in
railway earnings thus far reported for
June Of 11.s per cent over the CORE
spending period Of 1905, and foreign
commerce shows a gain of $1,s41.071
IN exports and decrease OF $e71, 600
En imports as compared with the move
ment year ago.
All classes OF farm staples except
cotton were exported more freely in
My than In the same month last year
and the loss Of almost 100000 in
cotton failed to prevent a gain in all
exports Of S6sf65,718s while imports
showed an increase OF $12,423,069 over
the corresponding month of 1905
That hides viii probably maintain
their strong position is indicated by
contracts covering the entire output of
Gour large packers during the balance
Of the year for native steers at full
