content to ride them at a speed mot 10
exceed that OF a man walking at
rapid gait" was the decision Of motor
cyclists here when they heard the de-
cisiOn Of Police Justice Cation rendered
this morning In the case Of William
Hinken, John Waddey and Frank Park
er. who had been arrested on the charge
Of exceeding the speed laws with their
motorcycles.
Justice Cation dismissed the men, this
being their first time they had been
before him. but warned them that they
must ktep within the State law which
provides that on streets on which there
are horses. speed shaII not exceed four
miles an hour, which he stated was the
gait a man could walk rapidly; and on
streets on which there are no horses
the speed must not exceed fifteen miles
an hour. AS there is never a time when
there are no horses on King street. the
speed there must be ar the four-mile
gait
The city council now has under con-
siderati0n an ordinance making II
against the law 20 ride a motorcycle at
greater speed than eight miles an
hour.
