Driver for MandersOn and LHtenser
public Legal Speed and CrRw-
ford Dismissss Case.

John Henderson, chauffeur for General
Henderson and Architect John Latenser,
in police court that he had been
coasting down Farnam street at the rate
of tweny-four miles an hour-twice what
the law allows-but Judge Crawford dis
charged him.
He was arrested last week by Motorcycle
Officers Morgan and Reigelman, who
tried their speedometers on his machine
when 1t was running between Thirty-sixth
and Twenty-sixth streets. Both found that
he was going much faster than the law
allows.
The Judge in rendering his decision, stated
that hills make fast driving necessary,
that Henderson had been only coasting,
with no power turned on. that Farnam
street is wide and nobody's life had been
endangered.
1t was testified by officer Reigelman that
nearly all the complaints against auto
speeders come from residents in the dis
trict where Henderson was coasting. The
chauffeur has been in police court before
for speeding and was on that instance
fined heavily.

ziebell family, coming TO the stand.
When, the court had decided to admit the
evidence, Mrs. Hennings declared August

The witness then described the carrying
into the house of the wounded man and
his brother coming over from the ziebell
home.
The state closed It's case yesterday

bell to the stand. He then testified that
his brother cried: why did he do 1t? Why
