SEVENTH MAYTEST POLE HGHTT0 SPEED Crash in Pursuit of Bootleg- Dai ger Will Be Aired in Court | .ia: Tomorrow. VICTIM ol IS SUMMONED RS S frel Holman Says. He Was Hurt|ine Through Recklessness at 11th and C Streets. Ci A test case to determine the speed at which prohibition and police of- ficers may be justified in driving their | motor cycles and automobiles in chase ; of fleeing bootleggers may develop . at a preliminary hearing tomorrow | morning. at Police Court on the col- lision last Saturday at 11th and C streets of a sedan operated by Her-1 bert P. Holman of the bureau of | ture and a high-powered roadster occupled by revenue men and police- men. Holman, who happened to be in the path of the ‘police car/ was ureg and his machine badly dsm- aged. 5 1 Holman and the officers have’ summoned fo_gppear in the o the corporstton counsel at the Pollee Court at 10:30 o'clock, Friday morn- ing, together with a number of Wit- nesses, at which time it will be de- termined if there was culpability on the part of any one in connection with the smash up. Should it be found that efther Holman or the of- ficers violated ahy regulation and was responsible for.the accident, a war- rant for the arrest of the gulity party will be issued, it was said. i Customary Procedure. it was emphasized that the pre- liminary hearing called for tomorrow does not in any way indicate that any one was to blame, but is merely K |'the customary procedure followed in all collision cases. It was learned, however, that in order to have a basis for the hearing, a “technical charge of failing to give right of way has been lodged against Mr. Holman. NCE | He was requested by telephone to be present at the hearing, it was pointed out, no warrant being issued against %) him nor collateral or bond being re- quired of him. “I consider I had a miraculous es- Holman declared today.

I saw at that moment a closed car shoot across the street at great speed: T concluded it.was this car that was ‘making the noise, just the or- dinary automobile horn noise. 1 could see no other car approaching on account of the solld lines of park- € cargion 11th street. “WHen I got clear of the cars, I saw the revenue car, without top. coming at tremendous speed. I saw it couldn’t miss me, and put my foet | on the accelerator, and tried to’ get out of his way. .
