Andrews. Dnlghter of tha Lats General liaison 'I'srlor. who was Killed by a Fall from a (labia Oar. South Norwalk people well remem- ber the accident which befell lira. Eliza- beth Hoyt Andrews. daughter of the late General Nelson Taylor. at Broadway and Twentyvilrst street. New York, Febru- ary 7 last. which resulted in her death Mrs: Audreivs was out shopping with a friend on that day. She attempted to board a Broadway cable car at Twenty- first street. The conductor signalled to the motor- mau togo ahead while she was in the act of stepping upon the car platform She was thrown violently to the ground and fatally injured. ‘ Mrs. Andrea 3' son. Cornelius Vanderbilt Andrews, of the Baker & Taylor Pub Iishing company, 228 West Thirty fourth street, advertised for the witnesses of the accident and took the case to the grand jury. Last Saturday the district attorney sent 'a notification to the silica of the Metropolitan Traction company, which runs the Broadway cable road, to appear in Part 1., General Sessions. this week and answer to an indictment for man- slaughter in the second dl-gree. The in dictment was filed late Friday in Judge Fitzgerald's court. Another result of the inquisition of the grand jury was the filing of apresent- ment in court recommending the passage of a law compelling the cable and trol- ley roads to employ an additional man on the rear platform of each car to start andstop the car while the conductor is inside collecting fares. The indictment of scorporation is a very unusual proceeding. No individ. usloflicer of a corporation can be held responsible to the extent of imprison- ment. as in the cancel individual indict menls. The law accordingly provides for fines to be imposed upon corpora- tions when convicted. The amount of the fine is fixed according tathe de- gree of the offence charged. In the present case the extreme flue provided by the law is 85 000. GATHERING IN TIIE WANDEBEBS. The Police Make a Wholesale Amos of [nights of the Bond.
