MRS. CARRERE ASKS $4,000
Architects Widow Sues Railroad
and Taxi Companies.

Mrs Marion Dell Carrere. widow Of the
architect John Merven Carrere, who died
on March 1 last from injuries received
when he was thrown out Of a taXicab, has
brought suit for $4,000 damages from the
receivers Of the Metropolitan Street Rail
way Company. whose car hit the cab; the
New York Taxicab Company, and the
Mason Seaman Transportation Company
which succeeded the taXicab company.
Through counsel, Mrs. Carrere yesterday
asked Justice Pendleton that the case be
placed on the calendar for an early trial.
II was explained TO the court, and a Ger
tifcate from a physician was produced in
support OF the statement. that Mrs. Car
rers is III, and has been i'll since May Il,
from the shock that she suffered from her
husbands death Il was further stated
that a delay IN the trial Of the case Will
retard her recovery.
The Metropolitan company denied re-
visibility for the collision that caused
the death Of Mr.. Qarrere, saying that the
employe of the taxicab company was 10
blame The taxicab company placed the
blame on the motorman. The objection Of
the defendant included the statement that
the early trial could not be asked because
Of the immediate need Of the plaintiff, as
the family of Mr.. Carrere collected $4,000
on insurance policies on the life of the
architect. The court reserved decision.

tives 10 the officials Of the Department
Of the Interior We're chiefly responsible
for all of which there was reason 10
complain. For a time, he said the
muckrakers had succeeded in paralyzing
the department, but Secretary Fisher
was not only a true conservationist, but
an expeditions and a fearless man. who
would do the right as he saw it and that,
as IL was chiefly methods OF which legi-
innate complaint was made, they could
count on early relief.
The President held an amusing colo
guy with the school children. asking them
a number of questions, to which they
made ready replies, but he finally par

were their Senators, a question which
no child could answer.

conclusion. whereupon many of the chill
dren made the sign of the cross. some
