\ stent A tee cree ita a TIME ON SPEEDERS HELD BY POLICE WON'T GO WITH THIS COURT, Magistrate Condemns the Sys- tem in Use at One Well Known Trap. A favorite police trap for automobile | apeeders on Broadway was condemned this afternoon by Magistrate Apple- ton after he had made a personal tn- ection. In consequence Harry Lan- caster, a chauffeur employed by Harry Kilborn, an automobile dealer, who was | charged with running his automobite! twenty-twogmiles an hour between Eigtty-first and Fightisth streets in Broadway, wae discharged. | ‘The trial of Lancaster this morning brought out that many arrests had | been made by policemen standing a!) Seventy-ninth street and Broadway and | timing auitonsbiles coming down Broad. way as they were passing from Hight | first to Elmhtieth street, ‘This particular | “trap” has attracted the attention of the Automobile Club of America and that organization stood behind Lan- | camer'a defense. It was said that Lancaster's apeed- ometer between Eighty-firat atreet and Kightieth streets registered only six- teen miles an hour. Magistrate Apple- ton was taken to Seventy-ninth street and Broadway and several tests were Made. He decided that the police meth- od of computing speed of cars at this Point was far from accurate, inasmuch as it wan impossible to time an auto- mobile in the manner the policemen de- scribed. It will be necessary for the traffic cops to arrange some other atretch along Broadway for the purpose of catching speeders. | Factory Law Vio Chief Justice Russe!
