Whether from drink, shock or both, Ray, in the opinion of the sheriff, was in a dazed condition, did not seem to know what he was doing, and was in no fit condition to do fur ther driving It was also the opinion of Sheriff Pease that had the machine been travelling at a speed of Is or 20 miles an hour that the machine could have passed the trolley without trouble. Miss KoFb had previously admitted that shortly before the ac- cident the car might have been trav- cling 40 miles, She drives Cadi1- lac car herself and as a driver Cor judge of speed.
 Many passengers having testified, several other drivers of trucks who were awaiting the passing of the troll ley at this danger point were exam tned by the coroner. Alex Ezekiel head truckman of the c. Bucking- ham & company, Southport was fol- lowing the trolley. He described the marks made by the machine iInmed- lately after the impact. and thought that it must have been travelling fast but that it was quickly slowed down following the crash that threw Steen with such force against the side of the automobile that he suffered fatal injuries.
 c. B. Carlson was driving a, truck south on Benson road, was awaiting the passing of the trolley, saw the machine 12 feet before the crash, and gave chase when it became evident that Ray was not going to stop. This he did at the behest of the motor man, James Mills. Counsel for the trolley company this morning show ed that warning signs are posted at this crossing Attorney William H. Com1ey asked for a recess which was granted at noon. Ray had not yet been placed on the stand, nor had the crew of the trolley yet been call ed. Ray was arrested by Sheriff Pease and given in charge of Deputy Sheriff William Gould, and later re- leased on a bond of S2,50O, being charged with -nanslaughter, pending the report of the coroner's investiga- ton.

BISHOP BURNS GIVES TALKS HERE DURING THE
COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES And CONFER CE

Bishop Charles Wesley Burns, of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, Wis
tied Bozeman last Wednesday and
Thursday, on the occasion of the
sub-district conference at the
Methodist church. The bishop is in
charge of the Helena area which COM
prises Montana, North Dakota, Ida
ho and eastern Oregon with head
quarters in Helena.
On Wednesday evening the bishop
.dve the commencement address for
the class of graduate nurses from
the deaconess hospital. This was de-
livered in most happy vein, and
while in the main serious and packed
with constructive thought, yet there
was enough humor and apt illustra-
tion to delight his hearers. The bis
hop said that Montana led the world
in the number and equipment of it's
deaconess hospitals, and, among other
nice things said Of the graduates was
that these nurses, who are giving
their trained service to humanity,
are the highest expression of our
present "aristocracy of service" y
The subject of the Thursday after
noon lecture was preacher, Pastor
and Prophet" The bishop referred
to letters of the great theologian
Marcus Dodds, writing along this
same line. He showed that the work
of a preacher was formerly much
more simple than now. The spread oi
education among all classes had rails
ed the whole people intellectually ant
the modern preacher must have al
all-round education of the highest
type in order to be able to interes
and hold his congregations. Not 81
difficult today to be good but difficul
to get hearing for the truth. Afte
studying various callings, trades an
professions he had come to the con
clusion that the most difficult tasl
in the world today is that of the sue
cessful pastor and preacher. He mus
be able to talk agriculture, shoT
science, business, politics, medicine
music, art, education, and com
nsunity building and anything else /
