Injuries Stated to Have Been Acct
dental. But Father Arrested.

Cogswell, an engineer living in Southwest
Washington, has been placed under 5000
bond to await the result of injuries said to
have been accidently inflicted by Cogs-
we'll upon his own child sixteen months
old. the evening of February % last. From
| those who say they are familiar with the
circumstances it was learned that Cogs-
we'll was playing with the babe the day
of the accident by tossing it up and
| catching it. when the little one slipped
through les arms. Before the father
could catch it. the infants head struck
Nothing was thought of the injury at
first, the parents believeing it to be a
mere scalp wound. Later, however, the
childS condition became serious. and DR..
r. NJ Ellyson, the family physician. was
summoned. An examination showed that
the babe was suffering from what appear
ed to be fracture of the skull at the
base of the brain. Its condition for a
while was considered to be satisfactory,
but day or two ago there was a change
for the worse. and Cogswell was taken
into custody last night by Lieut.. Holm
berger and Sergt. Lynch of the fourth
precinct station. under orders from police
headquarters. This afternoon, 1t wa.
said. the child's condition was grave, and
there was slight chance of it's recovery.
