FOUR ESCAPE
IN ] URY IN
AUTO CRASH
Wagon Demolished When Hit
by Car Late Last Night
en- Memorial Bridge

A wagon was smashed to splinters
and a Cadillac automobile was badly
damaged in crash on Memorial
bridge about II o'clock last night, in
which the occupants of the wagon and
the car escaped injury.
The auto was driyen by Robert
Bodenstab, who was accompanied by
Douglas Devine. Harry Coleman was
the driver of the wagon. He was
bringing load of furniture from
Mandan to Bismarck and was travel
ing without lights.
Bodenstab and Devine were return
ing from a theatre in Mandan. They
say they were travelling at a fair rate
of speed to climb the hill at the west
end of the bridge and lights from Il
car approaching from the east pre-
vented them from seeing the wagon
until they were within few yards of
the vehicle. Bodenstab swerved the
car sharply to the left, but it hit the
rear wheel of the wagon: Coleman
and a companion were thrown to the
pavement and the automobile CON
tinued on and crashed against the
north wall Of the bridge. The auto
mobile knocked a huge hole in the
wall of the bridge, but bounded back
on to the highway.
The wagon was completely demol-
ished and the furniture was scattered
over the bridge. The horses were not
injured. Both headlights on the car
were broken and the tenders and
front wheels were smashed.
