Tandy cited that one man has been

STIFF fine IS
GIVEN Street
CAR CONDUCTOR

The first street car motorman to be
arrested for needless driving of a
trolley and plastered with the heaviest
fine for such an offense is the record
held by Joseph Silva, Rapid Transit
motorman, who was tried in police
court Wednesday. Silva was arrested
on warrant issued by Chauffeur Ii.
cense Inspector Bob Lillis.
The accident which caused the ar
rest Of the motorman occurred last
week at Alakea and King streets
about o'clock in the afternoon, when
the home-going traffic was at its
height The traffic officer stopped
movement OF vehicles down King
street, when Japanese on bicycle
became impatient and went shooting
by the officer. The officer gave
chase, and it was then that Silva
started things doing. He moved his
car, which bumped into Stutz, which
bumped a Ford, which bumped a
buggy and started the horse ambling
down the street The repair auto was
called to carry the Ford to the shop.
Investigated Affair
When Inspector LilIis heard of the
a warrant issued for the arrest of
Silva on a charge Of needless driving.
< This is the first record in local po-
-lice annals where moterman has
been arrested for driving car heed
. lessly. And when he appeared before
Judge Irwin in police court he paid
: the heaviest fine for that charge on
record.
Unless this reckless operating of
street cars is stopped" declared
Prosecuting Attorney Charles Chilling
worth in police court, arguing against
Silva, 1.-The street cars ought to be
taken off the public highways. They
endanger the lives of too many people
to allow the motorman TO run the cars
wildly E. II
Cites Example .. eE@.
when a motorman takes a whole
block to stop his car in, as know of
in one case, it's time to swear out
warrants" said Bob Lillis. 81 know
of an incident when the conductor got
scared at the speed of the car and
gave the motorman three bells. That
means an instant stop. 1t took the
motorman just one blocks length to
stop that car"
1illis further said that he was going
after reckless motormen just as much
as motorists. Silva's case has a pc.
culiar interest, as it is the first Seton
taken against street car drivers, al
though trolley speeding has caused
many bad moment for autoists and
pedestrians. It further shows that
because the trolleys run on tracks
they haven't the right to speed any
more than motorists.
