The conductor and motorman of the car were placed under arrest and are being held pending the verdict of the coroner's Jury at the Inquest to be held tomorrow afternoon. At the time of the accident Fansher was walking east on Main -street. As ha started to cross Second street he passed behind a covered truck and stepped out on the car track Just as car No. 310 of the Fulton line neared the spot The car was traveling at a good rate of speed and before the young man could get out of its way or the motorman check Its speed the car struck Fanaher. throwing him violently to the ground. His body waa ithrown slightly to one side of the track and the step of the car caught In his cloth ing, dragging him for a distance of 50 feet before the car could bo brought to a standstill. Fansher was carried-to a nearby drug store and a physician summoned to at tend his injuries. He waa beyond the aid of human hands, however, as his skull liHd been fractured and his spine dislocated by the Impact of the blow from the rapidly moving car. He died 15 minutes later without regaining con sciousness. Conductor J. Wark and Motorman R. G Read were placed under arreat by the police as soon as It wss announoed that Fansher was dead. A charge of manslaughter was placed against them and they were later released on a bond of H.OflO to await the action of the coroner's Jury. Both men state that the car was going; at an ordinary rate of speed at the time of the accident and that every effort was made to stop the car.

Brown several months ago secured a verdict for 13.750 damages against the Pacific States Tel ephone & Telegraph company, the case Is being tried over again before Judge Oantenbeln In the circuit court. Judgo Frazer presided In the former trial, but did not sign the findings before his death, and this made a new trial nec essary. The case was simplified today by a stipulation, In which the defendant company admitted liability for the ac cident in which Brown's Injuries were sustained, he having fallen over a tel egraph pole that was lying In the street This leaves only the question of the amount of damages to be deter mined, and the case is being tried be fore the court without a Jury. Brown sued for $10,000. Men's Fashions. From Browning's Magatlae. A Tuxedo waistcoat has a deeply pointed front.

From the Iondon Dally Graphic. An admiralty official has confirmed the statement that the British naval pigeon service is to be allowed to fall into disuse. "Think of it!" he remarked. Not so very many years ago people were filled with wonderment that a homing pigeon could fly with messages at the rate of 60 miles an hour and reach its destination with safety. To day a wireless message can be sent at the rate of hundreds or miies in a iew seconds. . . "It was a wise step to establish, as the admlraltv did. a carrier pigeon serv ice in connection with the navy; they are eauallv wise to abandon the stations now that telerraohlo facilities have been brought to such a state of perfec tion. "Nowadays a battleship can easilj keep in wireless communication witr Ram Head, near Plymouth, while voy aging to Gibraltar, or even to portions of ths Mediterranean. Most of the fleet have ths necessarr Installations aboard. "The naval pigeon service- had its drawbacks, birds often not finding their way . home through losing their reckon ing or on account of Injury. . Only In minor ways has their usefulness to the navy been demonstrated. Without wire loss telegraphy, however, there is no question thai in time of war they would have been a real help." Among pigeon fanciers there Was some consternation, especially on the part of those who belong to what is known as the volunteer carrier pigeon service. which is not, however,, to bo interfered with.
