 Views Scene of Accident.
 Accompanied by his counsel. Jacob Wrinkle, who is now under 8 bond of $1,000 pending disposition of his case by the superior court, was in town yesterday afternoon to confer with witnesses to the killing of Thomas Maloney, aged 12, who lost his life last Thursday when, while playing peggy in the highway. he was run down by MT. Wrinkles auto.
 Wrinkle was bound over to the su- perior court as the result of the acci- dent by Justice A. H. Condell, who preferred to have the upper tribunal take Jurisdiction.
 Witnesses to, the tragedy are in- clined to the belief that Wrinkle could not avoid the accident and it Is likely that States Attorney Alcorn will nolie the charge against him.

 The largest contributor to the local fund was the Trumbull Electric cons pany, which subscribed to the extent of $1,000. Collections in the churches also aided considerably.
 The Church of Our Lady of Mercy with her two missions contributed
