cial club last night, at the Gary hotel
steps were taken to prepare for the

OF which at this time has not been de-

numerous employees of the Maynard
brick factory, near the scene of the ac-
cident. claim to have been attracted
from their work shortly before the boy
was struck by the shouts of the oc-
cupants Of the speeding automobiles as
they challenged each other to race and
1ibed each other about the speed of
their cars.
Eyevvitnesses' Testimony.
1t was during the exciting moment,
say the eyewitnesses. at the crucial
time when one car was passing the
other and assuming the lead that the
speed demons, intent upon nothing but
to best their rival struck down and
killed the innocent pedestrian.
Mr.. Swartout is a demonstration en-
ployed by the Chicago Motor Car com
pany of 1915 Michigan avenue He had
in his machine R. c. Criger and a pro-
spective purchaser. and a friend of the
latter. showing them his car.
Gary Men in Second Car.
The second machine was occupied by
". c. Smith. a salesman for the Duff
fey Automobile company, 1901 Michigan
avenue, Chicago. In his car were S
Swanson, a repair man for the COM
pany, and a party of friends from Gary.
including Stanley Bartlett, superin-
tendent of the Reynolds building. F.
R. Bartlett. his cousin. and J. Smith
one of the owners of the Brunswick
pool and cigar store This party was
returning from Miller where they had
repaired a broken machine.
Deny They Raced.
On the witness stand last night. at
the home Of the DeKrygers east of
Highlands. they stolidly maintained
that their speedometer showed NO
greater speed than % miles an hour.
Again all of them tenaciously stuck to
the assertion that they were not rae
ing at the time. neither did they chaI-
lenge each other to a trial of speed
The refutatOry testimony Of the far
mers, nevertheless. was considered suf-
ficiently strong TO warrant holding
Swartout pending the completion of the
inquest by Deputy Corner r. NJ Shank
lin today. Last night at 10 o'clock he
was taken to Crown Point by Sheriff
Thomas Grant in the latter's automo-
bile Whether or not he will be held
for criminal carelessness will be de-
cided today at the conclusion Of the in
vestigation.
Inquest to Decide.
If Swartout was negligent at the
time the boy was killed, his subsequent
actions were revelation to those who
have had experience in former motor
accidents. The minute that the lfeless
body of little Cornell was hurled to
the side of the road the car was
brought to stop and the occupants
carried him to his home and lent every
assistance possible. while the second
car was racing at a terrific mace to
Hammond for medical assistance.
When the word was given that the
boy was dead, Swartout then sent for
the coroner, the sheriff and Chief Of
Police Austgen of the Hammond police
force and offered himself up. He was
then taken back to the scene Of tho
accident. where the Investigation was
conducted.
