 Attorney Spock, Of the railroad said that the company was always on the lookout for a better fender and that 1t had experimented and found none better than those now in use.

War den, had been investigating the fen der question, and said it had been agreed that the present style of fem der in use here was not the best. The fender such as in use on the C..

CORONER MIX REPORTS
Road Claims it Has Not Yet Been Able to Find Any
 Better.

The hearing held yesterday morning by the State Railroad commission in city hall on the question of new style of lenders for the local street cars was a lengthy one and resulted in the agreement that if the railroad com pany is able to find a better style of fender than that now in use the rail- road commission will order it to be put on the cars.
 Commissioner Seymour said the con- mission was glad to review the recom- mendations of those who appeared for certain kinds of lenders. lie told how after a previous hearing to investigate the fender question the people of this city, in 1895, had asked the commis- sion to order the present style of fender They had done 50. "Now if anyone knows any better style, why we'll be glad to investigate it. The fender question is as much in the air nll over the country as it is here" He told of personal Investigations in other places, but said he didn't find any thing that filled all the bills. He ad- mitted that the present fender was inadequate because it wasn't close enough to the tracks, but had to be tripped to the ground He finished by saying that the commission had or dered what committee from this city had recommended, but were willing to change it if better one could be recommended
 Health Inspector John ODonnel was next and recommended placing the present style of fender on the front of the car instead of under it as 1t is now. This, he said, would give a per- son struck better chance for his life.
 Alderman Loos followed and stated that the lenders in use were no good
