CAUGHT AFTER CHASE mployer Expresses Regret and Says He Will Do Something to Lessen Bitterness of Tragedy. Terucatti Attille, chauffeur for Peter Cooper Hewitt, who ran and killed twelve-year-old Robert Claudet on Seventh avenue and Twenty-ninth street last night, was held without ball in the West Side Court to-day to await ‘the action of the Coroner, who is mmakine an investigation, The French Colony is greatly stirred up over the affair. ‘Though every effort was made to save the child's life he died several hours after ho was run down in Roosevelt Hospital, The chauffeur, who-tried his Dest to escape, wes chased down by & mob of several hundred people. He wae caught only after he had become en- tangled in a trafMfoc jam. ‘The accident occurred @uring the rush hour last night. It has been the cus- tom for chauffeurs to drive thelr ma- chines et top speed through Seventh avenue. On Broadway and the other principal streets they maintain reason- able Boy Dropped Pennies. ‘The Claudet bov, who had Uved with hy aunt and uncle, Josephine and John Broghet, at No, 247 West Twenty-ninth street, for the past two years, siarted for a candy sure. He was crossing Sev- enth avenue, at Twenty-ninth tet, when be dronmed the pennies he carried He stooped to pick them up, unaware of the big machine that was approaching noleélessly from behind. As he bent over! he was struck and hurled through the air for twonty {cet fhe machine, which was going at great speed, then ran over him. The Griver, heefless of the shouts of the people who had witnessed the tragedy, whirled his wheel, shot across into ‘Twenty-ninth street and threw the le-er wide. open, He would have escaped had not the driver of an express wagon, who had seen the boy run dows, lashed’ his horses into a gallop and pursued the Meeting auto. The big machine was forced to slow down at Sixth avenue by @ jam of vehicles. It ewerved up on the sidewalk, though, and was on the point of again escaping, when the express Griver leaped from his seat and yelled for a policeman, Pollooman Thompson, who was break- ing up the trafflc congestion, ran up ‘and took the chauffeur back to Seventh avenue, There was a great crowd at his heols and the machine had difficulty ta forcing its way back to where the Uvtle boy lay on che sidewalk.

KILLED BY AUTO. CLARENCE WAS A WINNER AT BALL ;But a Jealous Mortal Sent Him to the Hospital, Wounded. Clarence Gotten got so gay with the girls at the ball of “The Two Rambles Association,” in Verona Hall, No, 172 Atlantic avenue, Brooklyn, lam night, that he caused bitter anger to rise in the breast of Totts Grinnfe, It should be ald that Totrs is @ masculine name in Brooklyn. Well, Clarence was 2 “four-time winner,” the beau of the ball, and although, as the evening waxed late, bis over-consumption of | spirits eade him a trifle odd, he atlll was the favorite, and could walk right up to any girl, look winningty at her, hold out his ams and ebe would fall into them and go sailing over the pol- ished floor, leaving her partner etand- Ing there all alone. ‘Totts wouldn't stand for this sopt of thing, and when Clarence started off with his bundle of fluff on his arm, Totts stood right up Ife a man and slapped Clarence on the wrist—with a knffe, ‘The ball atopped at once.

They didn't care what thc motive might be if only they had a relief from {| excessive power bills. But here !s where the rub comes in. Almost simultaneously with the an- nounoement of the five-cent reduction in price the Edison Company made an- other change, about which, however, unt it did not make so much notee in print. | uch Before the reduction was allowed bual- ness men using its power had been given the benefit of a regularly graded schedule of discounts. Rates Cut, Bills Go Up. When the reduction in rates went into effect these discounts were iscontinued. ‘Then, to thelr chagrin, users of power from thé Edison Com- pauy discovered that with the reduction allowed and the discount had ever paid before for the same ser- vice, In some instances, it is declared, ‘wonsumera are now paying from 40 to % per cent. more than they formerly paid for approximately the same amount of power. In certain cases, it !s sald, the Increase in @ single month has amounted to as much as 90 per cont Naturally, when bills Gret came tn showing such startling differences in the cost of power as compared to pre- ceding months the customers protested.
