of" Knight and East Wall streets. yes-
terday afternoon. which resulted in the
damaging of both mlchlnes. and the.
appearance of the young lady drivel-I
of the Massachusetts car in court this
morning. i

The Massachusetts car, an Oldsmo-
bile was driven by Miss Adams,
'East avenue. and contained besides
the. driver. Miss Elects Baird, of Mel-
bome Rood.

Miss Adams. coming out of Knight,
street. attempted to turn towards Mill;
Hill when Wall street was reached.
but in doing so she cut the corner too
closely and placed her machine direct-
ly in the path of Mr. Bouton's Chev-
rolet car. which was bound west.

The two machines came together
with a bang. and as a result both cars
were taken to Loekwood's Garage for
repairs to damaged mudguards and
steering gears and sprung wheels. An
odioer investigated the mishap and
found that neither of the young ladies
had a driver's license. They were talc.
on into custody by the officer. but
were immediately released upon $25
cash bonds. ~

In court this morning. Miss Baird
stated that she has a. license. and pro-
duced the some. The license had been
issued. however, only on November

nd the young’ lady admitted that
site it not studied up very diligently
ion the state auto laws. Judge Lock-
wood. after reading a section of the
law to the offenders, continued the
case indefinitely.
