as did a woman who sat with him
on the front seat and q man who
ran away before the police could
learn his name. One woman in
the party was hurled 80 feet and a
man so feet. Benson admitted he
was going twenty miles an hour.
The machine was damaged $1,000,

answer a charge of exceeding the
speed limit. He said the machine
was engaged at Seventh and
Locust streets and that he took a

He said four women and two men
occupied the machine when he
