H. Kirkham told him he had no claim against the city because the city was | not liable in law for acts of its| agents, but Radzevicus could not un- | derstand why he should be held for | ‘payment of the bills and it required | several minutes explaining before | he left the city court room, where the hearing was held. On the night in question, Radze- vicus explained, he was driving his| ‘car when it struck a building at Elm and Franklin streets and he was ar- rested.
