JURY D|SAGREES
In Case Of People vs.. Chris B. Tuger
OF St. LOulS-NO Decision Given

In the case, People VS.. Chris. B.
Tuger, Of St. Louis, tried in Justice
Chadwick's court Tuesday, the jury
was unable to reach a decision and
turned in report that they could not
agree
According to the evidence present
ed, Chris. B. Tuger was driving the
car OF Mr.. Let's, an insurance agent
Of Owosso, on road north of town
at a terrific speed when he met Ed.
Ruckman and Chas. Johnson, both of
Pine River township in buggy. Mr.
Ruckman raised his hands as sig
nal for the driver of the machine to
stop but he paid no attention to it
and dashed on past the buggy. The
horse ran away overturning the rig
into the ditch The complaining wit
ness, Mr. Ruckman and Mr.. Johnson
both swore that the signal was given,
and Joshua Davidson, of Alma who
happened to be walking along the
road at the time corraborated their
evidence Ray Best, who lives on the
road on which the accident happen
ed, said that when the automobile
passed his house it must have been
going at speed of from thirty to
thirty-hve miles per hour. The de-
PENDANT, Mr.. Tuger, and his employ
err Mr. Let's, were both in court.
Chas. H. Goggin, prosecuting at
torney, represented the people and
Chas. II. Giddings. of ST Louis. the
defendant.
The jury was composed of John
Schwartz, foreman, and Simon Mess

AUTOMOBILE LAWS
Continued from page /

by the driver OF a horse; to fail to
pass on the right; TO approach a We
hicle from the rear without giving
warning or to pass at a speed greater
than ten miles an hour; and to drive
at a speed exceeding twenty-five
miles an hour in the country, fifteen
miles in cities and villages and ten
miles in business districts to do any
OF these things is to violate the law.
The recent remarkable growth in
the automobile sales in Gratiot coun-
ty and the consequent increase in the
number OF machines used has rem
dered necessary a strict observance
OF the laws While the majority of
owners obey the regulations and
cause no trouble whatever, a few
either recklessly careless or afflicted
with the speed mania, have made it
imperative that the proper authorities
enforce the rules strictly before loss
OF life is caused. One of the most
noticeable violations is running at
night without lights. Every evening
a great many machines go about the
city and along the roads outside with
no lights whatever Another serious
violation is the approaching vehicles
without warning and speeding by.
AS uniformly as the law concerning
this is disregarded, it is a wonder
that many more accidents than have
occurred have not resulted. Shooting
around corners in the city at high
speed without caution and exceeding
the speed limits generally are further
frequent violations.
The city marshal has determined
that all disregard for the automobile
laws must cease and that arrests and
vigorous prosecutions will be the or
der OF the land in the future in cases
of violations. This is a move in the
right direction and the marshal will
receive the support of the entire COM
munity in the enforcement of the
regulations. The misdemeanors are
confined TO comparatively few auto
lists and in the interests of the large
majority of automobiles as we'll as
for the protection of the lives and
property of the masses there must be
a strict observance of the statutes.

NO CONGRESS RECESS
UNLESS SENATE ACTS
Vote Must Be Taken on Tariff
Bill or Statesmen
Will SWelter.

Unless the Senate agrees to vote on the
farmers free list bill, already passed by
the House, or the bill to cut the wooden
duties in half. which will soon be reported
and passed. Congress will be in session
all summer.
This is the view Of Senator Burton OF
Ohio. as expressed today.
AS the Senate does not at this time
seem at all disposed even to consider,
much less vote on the farmers free list
BILL it Is conceded that the chances fol
an early get away are not bright.
Price of Recess.
1.-The managers Of the majority party
in the House demand that we do some
thing with their political bills as price
for the recess" was the explanation made
today by Senator Burton of Ohio. who
has been active in endeavortng to bring
about a recess agreement.
They are determined. in other words.
that we shall do something over at this
end of the Capitol which will give them
subject matter for political medicine
making when they go home for the re-
cess. If they can't have something to
talk about when they go home for the
recess they won't want to go home at
all, but will insist on staying here right
through the summer.
Il have been hoping for a recess to
run from July l to October /, as has
been talked Of. and / thought up to the
last day two that this might be agreed
upon. But, of course, if the House re-
fuses to enter into any agreement there
will be no recess.
