Barnes, assistant secretary to the President, arrived in Washington today. Mr. Barnes was with the Presidential par ty at. Plttsfieid yesterday, being- In the - second carriage behind that occupied by the President, Mr. Cortelyou and Governor Crane at the time of the ac cident. Although Mr. Barnes dis claims, any special knowledge as to the c4 rcumsUnces - of . : the accident - not "shared by many Others, yet from what he saw and heard on the spot he -thinks the responsibility for the accident lies between the driver of the; President's carriage and the motorman, with the greater burden upon the latter. Th. trnltev mnA a that OOlnt. ilr. Barries says, is straight for some dis tance, and the motorman must have seen and recognized the President's carriage with its four white horses some time before the crossing- was reached, but instead of -' stopping or materially reducing- his, speed, be came on at a rate that made it impossible for him to stop when he saw that collision was imminent "The driver of the President's carriage, on the other hand could hardly have a clear view of the track at the point of crossing, as the outriders ion either side j must have obstructed it to . some extent at least. : v, o - Among the people Who gathered at the seen of the disaster It was sug gested that the driver of the Presi dent's carriage may have taken greater chance In crossing- the track than he usually would have-; taken. . He un doubtedly felt his 'Importance: as the driver of the President's landau, and was reported to have refused;' $1000 to allow another man to take bis plaee tor the day. .... ' I Legal Steps Are 8Tow.- Plttsfleid. ISept. 4. Less interest than was generally expected was shown in the appearance before the District Court today of Motorman Euclid Mad den and Conductor James Kelly, who had charge of the car that struck the President's carriage yesterday-.

It was agreed to postpone the matter for two weeks. a Bail of $5000 for Mad den and $2500 for Kelly was continued. The presiding judge was Joseph Tuck er president of the street-railway com pany. Had hearing been bad he probatly would have given place to n associate. ". . ' ":-' .'
