The police discredit Ryan's story. C. | W. Harper, proprietor of a restaurant at 2723 Sutter street, says Ryan en- tered his place and ordered a meal | Ryan was drinking. After eating the meal he walked out of the restaurant and directly across the street. When he reached the car track he stumbled and fell, striking on the back of his | head. Two gripmen and a conductor on the Sutter street line saw him fall. They carried him to the sidewalk. Car Dispatcher Kennedy rang for the | patrol wagon and Ryan was taken to the police station, thence to the hospi- | tal. | It was after the alleged assault and robbery that Ryan entered the res- taurant and Harper says Ryan had no appearance of having been assaulted | nor did he make any complaint. i —— e — — Serious Shooting.
