BAKER KILLED BY AUTO Was Knocked Down and Run 0verby Touring Car as He Stepped From Trolley — Rushed to Backus Hospital Where He Died Shortly After—Had Fractured Spine, Broken Ribs and Punctured Lungs. Clarence E. Baker, 24 years of age, and son of Mr. and Mrs. Ellsworth E. Baker, of No. 129 Asylum street, died at the Backus hospital shortly after 5 o'clock Tuesday afternoon as the re- sult of injuries received when he was knocked down and run over by a Cad- illac touring car owned by Andrew F. Connor and 'driven by his chauffeur, Clifford Rouse. The accident happened about 4.45 o'clock, near Ford's ice pond. Mr. Baker stepped off a West Side car di- rectly in front of the oncoming auto- mobile. The bumper of the machine struck his leg and took him off his feet. As he went down he tried to grab a flag on the front of the ma- chine, but the wheels passed over his body. He was conscious when picked vp and was rushed to the Backus hos- pital, arriving there about 5 o'clock. He died a few minutes after his arrival at the Institution. An examination showed that his spine was fractured, several of his ribs were broken and his lungs punctured. The chauffeur reported the accident to Police Chief George Linton at po- lice headquarters shortly after it hap- pened. He was on his way to the city and was coasting down the hill near the pond when he struck Mr. Baker. Medical Examiner C. C, Gildersleeve was notified of the accident and made an investigation. Mr. Baker was born in New London Jan. 18, 1892. He was a graduate of the Norwich Free Academy and was employed as a draughtsman. At one time he was a member of the Third company, C. A. C,, C. N. G.

Les- ter was the head, had provided a lot of pyrotechpics for the edification of evervbody for miles who had the en- crgy to elevate their range-finders a few degrees and take sights. Of course, there were some who preferred to linger in Franklin square and gaze idly into the street, but most people were eager to see powder burnt in an artistic way over across the river. The people crowded onto Preston Bridge with such airdity that that long- suffering structure gave a groan—un- til Officer Edward Maloney insisted that the cpowd move along and not tempt the” bridge—with the cool rip- pling water of the river beneath—too the front and to our great Commander in Chief at Washington that Connect- | icut stands with them as one man the Murphy Browns and Bald- wins_and and Cumming and King! ns and democrats, at the depot, or the post office wall, or 4 hundred other equally good stations of observation, when there was a tre- mendous to-do over across, explo- sion followed explosion, and then—si- lence.
