Motorman,s Evidence.

Robert Donahue, the trolley motor man, said that the car was crowded with a heavy freight standing on the running boards on each side He saw the automobile when it was about at Bridge street; heard the horn blown several times. When the auto reached the trolley he had not stopped his car and when it struck the boys he heard someone scream and he applied the brakes and brought the trolley car to a complete standstiu immediately. Looking back, he saw two boys lying in the road. Witness was of the opin- ion that the automobile was not going more than four or five miles an hour at the time it had passed the trolley car.
 Arthur Hamel, aged 15 one of the boys. said that the boys sat upon the curbstone and after the trolley had passed and stopped some of them started to cross the street. He did not see the auto or hear the horn but did hear someone call when the auto was about ten feet from the two boys struck The auto was going pretty fast but could not say how fast. It went quite a distance before it was stopped; in fact, almost to McQuillan's saloon.
 Brother of Injured Boy.
 Edward Sypher, aged Is, brother of William who was injured, said he was about a foot from the Ladda boy who was killed The boys had been sitting on the curbstone and started to cross signals from the automobile. Two of them got across safely but the Hodgins. boy had to jump on the trolley to keep from being hit by the autom obile. The auto was going fast, he said, and threw the Ladda boy into the air and his feet struck the top of the radiator of the automobile The trolley was standing still and people were getting on and off. The auto was about midway of the trolley when it hit the boys and it went fifty or sixty feet before it was stopped.
 When he had finished testifying Cor oner Bill asked him how his brother was. He replied that he could not walk. as his leg was cut and he was very weak and could not talk well.
 Joseph Ladda's Testimony.
 Joseph Ladda, aged Is, a brother of Charles, the boy killed, said that the boys did not hear the automobile. It was going fast and it went almost to

FREIGHT CONDUCTOR
DRURY ARRESTED

Bismarck, N. D., May 27.-Last even
ing at 6 o'clock Conductor Drury. in
charge of a Northern Pacific freight
train, was arrested by Chief Of Police
Mcdonald and taken before Judge
Pierce. on the charge of violating a
city ordinance, which prescribes the
time a train may blockade the cross
ings in the city.
1t appears from the evidence that
the crossing was blocked for at least
fifteen minutes. and some claim it was
impossible to get across any of the
three main crossings for a period of
q half hour.
Drury claims that he had so long a
train and was so located that it was
impossible for him to cut the cross
ing, but he will have a chance to ex-
plain in full June /, when his case
will come UP in justice court, and in
the meantime he is out under $50
bail
1t was this train that delayed the
fire department in getting to the scene
of the fire in the Swanson home last
evening.
