by Attorney Van DeMark, for the ID.
L. r. but he stuck to his story In
every detail. and was able 10 tell al
most the exact spot where the con-
versation took place. Motorman
Brown testified several days ago that

Couldn't your motorman have no

He is running over bumps so often
that he doesn't notice them
DO you mean to say thar the tracks

not notice when his car jumped over
a bolt"
We'll. they are always running over
stones
Mr.. Kerwin admitted the rails were
spread at the point where the car left
the track. but he thought that was
done by the car and that the situation
had not existed long.
