Coroner’s Finding in C Charl e of Death of Ladda. Following is $he text of the coroner’s finding In the case of the death of Charles Ladda at Willimantic May 31st, 1910: The undersigned, coroner within and for the county of Windham, having received notice from Capt. E. H. Rich- mand, “chief of police of the city of Willimantic, about 2.30 o'clock in the afternoon of Monda; May 30th, 1810, that one Charles Ladda, a boy of about 12 years of age, had béen run over by an "automobile and received ~Injuries causing his death, and that his body was then lying in St. Joseph's hospital in sald city: I proceeded to view said body, and on the first and third days of June, 1910, held an inquest in re- gard to the death of said Charles Ladda at the police station in said city of Willimantic. From the testimony taken at said inquesc it appears that a larz= crowd of people, men, women and chiléren, and among whom was the said Charles Ladda and several other boys alout his age, had gathered on Dboth sides of the main street in said city. i front of the town building, wa'ting for the Decoration day pro- cession to pass. While said crowd was s> guthered an open trolley car of the Cornecticut company, hea loaded wilh pussengers, several of whom were stapdify; on the running boards on either side of the car, approached from the east, going west, and came to a - & few feet westerly of the cross- walk which crosses Main, street to High street. About the same time a large 40-horse power automobile driven by Roland B. Jordan of Willimantie, and In which four other young men were riding, approached from the west, going east, and as it was about to pass said trolley car several boys, among whom was the eaid Charles Ladda, at- tempted to run from the sidewalk on the southerly side of the street past the rear end of the trolley car to the northerly side of the street. As they reached the center of the traveled way on the southerly side of the trolley car three of the boys were struck by said automobile, the said Charles Ladda be- ing thrown in the air, after which it passed over him. His neck was broken, his skull punctured and fractured, and bis left thigh fractured, from thé ef- fects of which Injuries he soon died. Broad, Straight Street. The street where the accident oc— curred is a broad, straight street, and the driver of the automobile had a clear, unobstructed view of the same, and also of the large crowd of people upon the sidewalks, and the heavily loaded trolley car in the center of the street, for quite a distance before he reached them. The statute law of Con- necticut provides that “no person shall operate a motor vehicle on the public highways of this state recklessly or at a rate of speed greater than is reason- able and proper, having regard to the width, traffic and use of the highway or so as to endanger the property or the life or limb of any person.” It also provides that “if the rate of speed of a motor vehicle operated upon the public highways of this state im\ pass- ing any street rallway car that i sta- tionary, or about to stop, on the same side of the car on which passengers are ordinarily received or discharged, exceeds three miles an hour, such rate of speed shall be prima facie evidence that the person operating such motor vehicle is operating the same at a rate of speed greater tham is reasonable and proper, and in violation of section 11,” above quoted. Violating Speed Law. As the evidence shows that the au- tomobile In question was running from six to twelve miles an hour, when the accident oocurred, it was being operat- ed at a greater rate of speed than the legislature of Connecticut says is rea- sonable and proper. In view of the crowded condition of the street, and of the trolley car, which was already stopped, or about fo stop, to receive and discharge passepgers, It seems to me that the reasondble and proper operation of the automobile quired its speed to be reduced to such a point that it would be under abso- lute control and could be instantly stopped. In Accord With Supreme Court De- It seems to me that this conclusion is in accord with the very recent de- cision of the supreme court of Con- necticut in the case of the state vs. Campbell. 1 therefore find that the said Charles Ladda died in Willimantic on the 30th day of May, 1910, from injuries re- ceived from being struck by an auto- mobile then in control of and being op- erated on_a public highway of this state by Roland B. Jordan, and that the death of said Charles Ladda was caused by the criminal carelessness of the said Roland B. Jordan. In accordance with the statute T have communicated the import of this finding to E. Frank Bugbee, prosecut.- attorney of the city of Williman- With this finding I file the evidence taken at said inquest, Dated at Daniclson, Conn., this Sth day of June, 1910. ARTHUR G.

HOSPITAL DIR_ECTORS a Busy Month— g Outlook. Hear Reports of Gratif The directors of St. Joseph's hospi tal held their regular monthly meeting Thursday morning in the board room and heard the reports for May. 'he reports showed an increase in the re- ceipts over the expenditures and shows that good work is beinz done by the officers of the institutions The La- dies’ auxiliary en unable Lo make a report as y receipts from the concert recently given under their au- spices by the high school, the in- dications are that the net receipts, in- cluding the contributions made by the incorporators and members of the medical staff, will be about $500. This sum is to be applied towards the mile of dimes that is to be raised to pay off the floating indebtedness of the Insti- tution. Once this debt, the major por- tion of which resulted from starting the institution and furnishing it, can be wiped out, the hospital can be car- ried along and kept free from debt, Since April first, besides paying all the bills contracied during May, the old debt has been reduced some $200. The directors voted to furnish the toilet rooms in the nurses’ home. These repairs are necessary, as the present arrangement is un itary. Situation Unchanged in Plumbers’ Disagreement. No change is apparent In the etrike situation mong the plumbers and there will probably not be any, for the master plumbers do not intend to un- bend. They say that it is up to the journeymen, that there is nothing to arbitrate, and that the jJourneymen will have to come to th n. National Representaiive James C.
