MOTORMAN'S STORY
His Testimony Before the
Coroner's Jury.
IN THE CENTRAL VIADUCT HORROR
B Saw no Bed Light Over the Closed
Gates Otber Witnesses Did,
However
Cleveland, Nov. 20. At the coroner's
inquest in the Central viaduct horror to
day, Augustine Rogers, the motorman
of the ill-fated car which plunged into
the river, testified that the conductor
. ran ahead when the car etopped at the
safety switoh, and signalled "All right."
He stated the glass in the vestibule was
blurred by rain and he did not discover
the bridge was open until the car was
within about 30 feet of the gates. He
then turned off the current, eet the
brake and jumped. He testified that be
saw no red light and believed had there
been one displayed he would have seen
it. He admitted he bad been misled by
the fact that the electric cutoff, provided
by the etreet railway company as a safe
guard, was out of order.
Two other witnesses examined today
6 wore the red light was displayed over
the gates when the car struck them.
IBS TARIFF.
Many Newly - Elected . Congressman
Favor Its Immediate Revision.
Chicago, Nov. 20. A special from
Washington says :
In spite of the plans of the republican
- leaders for the avoidance of a tariff fight
at this session, many newly elected
members are determined to keep up the
battle. Representative Tawney, of
Minnesota, said :
- "The sentiment of the republicans in
my state is in favor of a conservative
revision of the tariff upon straight-out
republican lines. We believe that the
revenue for carrying on the government
should be raised by a tariff on imports
rather than by excessive taxation under
the internal revenue eystem. If we can
not get a conservative revision it might
be advisable to pursue the 'popgun bill,
plan of accomplishing the purpose in
part."

sezere cuts in the vicinity of the heart,
ond will doubtless die. Welsh was cut
under the right arm and breast. His
H-ounds are severe, but not fatal.
