sIDEswIpED ONE; HIT ANOTHER
Automobile Going East on Washing
ton Street Put Ford Out Of Business.

Two cars were somewhat damaged
on upper Washington street Saturday
evening as a result Of being struck
by a Nelie car owned and operated
by George Ralph of this city.
1t Is alleged BY those who saw the
accident that Mr.. Ralph, who was GO
ing up Washington street, attempted
to pass another. vehicle just at the
top OF Washington street above Mel.
son street. By SO doing he was un-
able 10 see over the top of the knoll
toward which two other cars were
moving, one belonging to man named
Preston living in the vicinity of Plain
field and the other Ford coupe
owned by the Perry Auto company of
this city and driven by Quincy Perry
Of the firm. The Ralph car just
rrazed the rear of the Preston car,
damaging a fender and then smashed
into the Ford, taking off the left front
wheel, breaking the spindle and spring
and destroying both the left front
fender and the handle and door on the
same side. The front Of the Ralph
car Was also somewhat damaged but
was able Ia return TO the city on its
own power, while the Perry car had
TO be pulled in on rollers.
None Of the passengers or drivers
in any Of the cars were injured by
the collisions. but all are inclined TO
blame the driver Of the Ralph car for
the accident.

locked. Before the car could be
brought back under control it had cut
