to WHO was responsible for the gate
being left open will no doubt feature
in any settlement which may be made
by the company with the county.
The claim agent also went into other
angles of the accident The engineer
of the train in his version off the ac-

the welfare of passengers of the train
in mind and that he halted his train
as quickly as could be expected when
this was taken into consideration. AS
it was many of the passengers were
thrown from their seats but fortunate
ly no one was injured. There was
danger, it was said, that if he went
into the herd at too slow a speed that
the cattle might be thrown under, the
train and the latter derailed causing
more serious results.

precipitated it's human cargo into the
water. The Canadian pilot also was
drowned. Adde'S Godoshian, 40, of
Delray, Mich, was the only one saved.
Government immigration authorities
and Ecorse police expressed the belief
that the Armenians were being snug

ians had made application to be ad
mitted to this country a few weeks
ago,

of the accident.
Alleged Plotter Saved.
Adde'S Godoshian was pulled from
the river by Miles West, resident of
houseboat on the American side of
the river, who heard the frantic cries
of the laundering persons.
He went to their rescue in a motor
launch but when he reached the scene
of the collision, only Adde'S was on
top of the water. The bodies of the
six were not recovered.
Ecorse police were notified and
Adde'S was taken to a hospital. Cues
toned by the police, he said the party
of seven left Sandwich, Ont, at mid
night last night and rowed stealthily
up the Canadian side of the river.
Spotting a desolate place along the
river they put out straight ahead until
hit by the steamer.
Made Bargain in Windsor.
He said he had bargained with the
Canadian at Windsor for the SNUG
Cling of his children and his brothers
children into the United States and
was to pay him several thousand dol
lars on their safe arrival there. He
said he did not know the name of the
Canadian.
Godoshian is being held for Ameri-
can immigration authorities.

Square Hotel, tucked away three
then started home in his car.
He was coming down Rowland av-
enue, but the road refused to stay
put. Instead it would wind itself up
into curves where no curves had a
right to be. George was doing his
best to follow the road in its freak
ish behavior. Eventually he became
disguised with it's antics and decid-
ed to try the sidewalk. Sidewalks,
he cogitated were far more sensible
than roads, and would probably stay
put long enough for him to get home.
It came to- pass that the police car,
piloted by Lieut.. Charles Rock, ac-
companied by Detectives John Breidt
and Frank McClusky, happened to be
passing Rowland avenue and Garden
street just as George started to put
his brilliant idea into execution.
The Law Forbids.
GLOW now?'' queried Lieut.. Rock.
"What can be the meaning of such
strange activity?" pondered Detective
Breidt.
"Let US investigate" suggested Nc
Clusky.
: So they Investigated.
"Halt!" Lieut.. Rock commanded
George, and George halted.
Don't you know that it is against
the law to ride on the sidewalk with
an automobile? What do you think
you have there, a baby carriage ?"
Road Is Crazy.
''That road has gone nuts, it won't
stay in place" George retorted. give
got to get back to the hotel, this side
walk is nice and steady, and it's after
and there isn't anyone else
wants to use this walk. 1t was put
here for the public, and I'm the pub
lic." And with that George started
to roll on.
"Halt!" commanded Detective Breidt
and George halted.
"Come ride with u.s." officer Nc
Clusky invited. well take you
home"
II am afraid you WON'T" and George
hesitated. Then, although still sus-
picious, he got into the police mach
inc.
"It may be a roundabout way"
Lieut.. Rock admitted, "but you will
get home-sometime.
Watson was booked at police head
