PLUNGING AUTO
MAINS THREE
CAR FALLS TO BOTTOM OF
RAVINE
Proprietress of Lodging House, HeT
Woman Companion, Escort and
Chauffeur Narrowly Es-
cape Death

Miss Susie Bentley proprietess OF
the Empire lodging house, 22O FRANKLIN
street: Pearl Davis, a guest at tne
Empire, Joe Hunter and Alexander
Forbes, a chauffeur, are the per-
sons named in the police re-
ports as having had q narrow es-
cane from death early yesterday morn
ing. when the biz touring car in which
they were riding plunged from a
bridge a distance of fifteen feet to
the bottom Of a ravine below in YER
mont avenue, just south of Temple
street. All but the chauffeur were ter
ribly injured.
The chauffeur lays the blame of the
accident to the fact that the lamps on
the automobile were not lit ana ne
could not see the road.
The occupants of the car were re-
turning to the city when the accident
occurred.
Forbes says he was feeling his way
along the road. He distinguished the
bridge, but in the dim light misJudged
the width of it and before he coufd
apply the brake the car was on ana
off the bridge.
But for the fact that the automobile
did not turn over when it landed In
the creek bed the occupants would
have been instantly crushed to deatn'
As it was, the motor car landed on It's
wheels and hurled the occupants out.
The police sa. the auto was char
tered by a man giving the name OF
james Rogers of 324 South Spring
street. The police assert, however,
that Rogers is the name given by
Hunter, who wished to avoid any pub
licity. In a like manner the women
were silent regarding their identity and
would not give their names.
Almost Immediately after the acci-
dent the police were notified and the
police ambulance was hurried to the
scene. But in the meantime an auto
mobile appeared and the injured were
placed aboard and rushed to the emer-
gency hospital, where they were
treated by Dr. c. W. Yerxa.
Names Secret
At the hospital, according to the at
tendants, the injured women would not
give their names, but Hunter gave the
name of Rogers.
DR.. Yerxa states the victims are in a
serious condition, especially Hunter,
who is suffering from internal injuries
in addition to a confusion of the left
hip and a lacerated scalp. One of the
women has a severe scalp wound; a
bruised left hip and sustained dis
located right shoulder, the other sus-
tined a laceration through the upper
left eyelid and dislocated right hip.
Forbes seems to have escaped with
but few slight bruises about the
body and minor decorations about the
face He would not allow the physi-
clans to treat him, but went to his
home.
The automobile belongs to the White
garage and the damage to it is esti-
mated at $500. No pipes were broken
and the air pressure was still on when
the car was hoisted out of the ravine.
Although the front springs were Jared
loose, the auto was towed into town
on its own wheels.
