Deputy Coroner Dunning and Cap tain of Police Detectives Moore and De tective Snow commenced an investigation yesterday morning.

He was notified, however, to be present and tes tify before a Coroner's Jury, whicl will convene some time today. Other witnesses were summoned and a full investigation of the circumstances will be made. It was announced last night by the Professional Chauffeurs' Club that a committee from the mem bership will be appointed today by its president, Cecil B.

"We stjsrted across the street," said Simpson. "Carter was slightly in ad vance of me. "We both saw the taxi cab coming, but thought there was am ple time to pass before It. I realized that It was coming pretty fast and drew back. I was just in time, but Carter tried to- run in front of it and was struck. It knocked him, I should judge. 30 feet, which is an indication of the speed a which It was running. It must have been going 20 miles an hour." The rate of speed mentioned by Simp son is denied by Resser. "It was storm ing," the latter said, "and my weather shield glass was so wet I couldn't see through it. -1 kept looking out from the side around it and had just dodged two piles of construction material on the street on which there were red lights. I was noticing these and did not see the men." Resser stopped his machine as soon a he realized someone had been hit. Carter was unconscious and was placed inside. C. E. Aremond and wife, of 404 Clay street, were infclde the machine at the time and were being driven from the Nortonia Hotel to their home. They were forced to get out of the cab and walk home. Resser then remover Carter to the hospital. -Carter Married One Year. Cartter had been married only about one year. He was 27 years old and had been in Portland most of his life.

I will employ counsel to look after my interests tomorrow." Mrs. Walter Waddell, of Hood River a well-to-do woman. is Carter's mother. She was notified by telephone of her son's tragic death and arrived here last night to attend the funeral, which will be held as soon as the Coroner has con cluded his investigation.
