 bruised when the Ford automobile driven by s. H. Brown, whose offices are at 22l7

 Carl Brown, who was uninjured by the terrific collision.
 T was coming west on Fourth avenue. said Driver Carl Brown, lat about 10 miles an hour. At Twenty-fourth street l shut off speed because there is fire station on that street, and 1t is best to
 make that crossing very carefully. Just
 in the middle of Twenty-fourth street l | 1t semed, at frightful speed. It was right on me. but threw in the speed in the
 hope that 1t would only hit the rear of l the patrol, and that Is what 1t did. It struck the right rear fender Of the patrol and bent 1t and knocked the patrol com pletely on its side. After 1t was all over the driver of the Ford car came over and shook hands with me, as l guess he thought l needed some congratulations
 because I had not been killed or serious ly injured"
 The shock of the collision. while 1t did not injure the patrol wagon. almost wrecked the frail Ford car. Its left front wheel was torn off and It's driver, s. w. Brown, narrowly escaped serious in- jury
 An investigation by Detective Sergeant and s. H. Darnel, following the collision disclosed the fact that in the attempt to avoid hitting the slow moving patrol as l it crossed in his path. s. H. Brown had 1 skidded his car about 10 feet in vain attempt to make quick turn west on Fourth avenue.
