complicated causes for the death,
within the last ten years, of large
percentage of the hickory trees. in
vestigations have proved that the

STRUCK BY AUTO WAGON
AND INSTANTLY KILLED
Twyman Frederick, Thirteen,
Hit While Riding Bicycle.
Chauffeur Held.

Twyman Frederick, thirteen years old
a pupil in the fifth grade at the Jefferson
School, was run over by an automo-
bile delivery wagon belonging to the
United States Express Company at 7th
and B streets northwest this morning
about 7:4O o'clock and instantly killed.
One front wheel of the heavy vehicle
crushed his head.
James Hollis, twenty-one years old, of
$50 street northeast, who was In charge
of the express companys machine when
the accident occurred, was arrested by
Sergt. Headley and taken to the first
precinct station to await the action of the
coroner. The body of the boy was taken
to the morgue and his relatives, who re-
side at 219 10th street southwest, notified.
Frederick was sent on an errand to a
newspaper Office this morning by his sis
ter After transacting the business he
started to return home on his bicycle and
was at the intersection of 7th and Il
streets when he met his death.
Chauffeur's Explanation.
The chauffeur explained to the police
that it was impossible for him to have
avoided the accident after he saw the
OOy directly In front. HOLLIS stated tUdt
he was going south on 7th street to the
wharf of the Chesapeake and Potomac
Steamboat Company and that he stopped
on the north side OF B street to wait for
a westbound car on the Washington Rail
way and Electric Company's line to pass.
AS soon as the car started. Hollis
stated, he started his vehicle across the
tracks. Young Frederick was riding cas-,
on the eastbound tracks toward 9Th
street, and his view of the auto-wagon
was obstructed by the street car. Hol-
lis view also was obstructed by the car,
and when his bicycle got in front of the
automobile it was too late to prevent the
accident.
II shut off the current and applied the
brakes" the chauffeur stated. las soon as
l saw the boy in front OF me. l heard
the boy give one scream. When the auto
mobile stopped the boy was lying near
the rear wheel. The front wheel had
passed over his head"
Sergt Headly, a neighbor of young
Frederick, was on q street car near the
scene Of the accident. He got off and
took charge of the chauffeur.
Young Frederick came here three years
ago from Waterlick, Va, where his
father died several years ago. The Fred
ericks resided on the property adjoining
Waterlick Springs. Arrangements have
been made for the funeral tC take place
at Waterlick Wednesday afternoon.
