BAD AUTO ACCIDENT
The Gunnison Empire.

The Gunnison Empire.
On Sunday last an Essex car driven
by Willet Robinson of the Deep River
Orchestra company, collided with a
car driven by Verne Mauer on Mon
arch Pass. 1t is said the Mauer car
was standing still and was run into
by the Essex. At any rate both cars
were. badly damaged.
A warrant was sworn out for the
Essex driver and upon being advised
he voluntarily returned from Salida.
He expressed willingness to settle all
damages and costs, but it seems there
is desire to prosecute for the reck-
lessness that caused the damage and
the case has been set for trial for
Saturday. However, it is believed
that It will be again continued to
Tuesday.
