He thought he hadtime to whiz down Buena avenue In front of a Broadway car.

He miscalculated by a fraction of a second, and this is what happened: The motorman jammed the emergency brake of hie car and checked It too sharply. The car 'wiped the track. The street car caught the automobile amidships and smashed the automobile to matchwood. The car lurched on Its way. climbed the curbstone, crossed the sidewalk, and plunged like a battering ram into the brick wall of an apartment building.

It went directly through the wall as though It were a paper house and stopped half way in the balding. A large gas pipe Imbedded In the wall was snapped off short The basement was flooded with gas and there were three startling explosions. The building took tire and the fire department had a. eght to keep it from being burped to the ground. Dist of the Victims.

The city council voted yesterday to accept Ms reduction in electric light rates offered by tbs Commonwealth-Edison company.

In doing so it trampled on the extended and emphatic protests of Alct Charles E. Merriam. Almost alone, Merriam stood in the path of the ordinance recommended by the committee on gas, oil, and electric light. SN tlich had negotiated the terms of the contract with the company. He fought its progresa step by step, but a two-thirds majority swept him aside.

The change in rate ordered le the establishment of a tertiary charge of 3 cents a kilowatt hour, which will benefit consumers after they have paid the primary charge of 10 cents for the first thirty hours and the secondary charge of 5 cents for the second thirty hours use of their maximum number of lights. It is estimated It will mean a saving of f1154.000 a year. Iderritzn Attacks the Method. It was upon this method of making the reduction that Merriam made his chief attack. Although the company had said it would not consent to a lowering of its primary charge, he urged that It be reduced to 9 cents In order to benefit 40.000 small consumers whose bills will not carry them to the tertiary The alderman also supported his demand on this point with the argument that the total reduction of a year under the Falmer plan was not all that could be made.

His own plan proposed a total reduction of approximately He contended ralmerls figures were based on an allowance for going value which would be a bad precedent in future rate makings. and that it could be used against the city in the pending TO cent gas legislation. Merriam also assailed the length of the period for which rates were fixedeve years offering an amendment to make the period three years. H. said the company's voluntary reduction of rates since 1908, the date of the last rate fixing, showed the city made a mistake then and the progress in electrical engineering probably would warrant further reductions in the next two years.

Merriam Beaten Twice. The aldcrman's motion on this point was voted down. 52 to 10. and his amendment reducing the primary charge to 9 cents and the secondary to 41.11 cents was beaten by 4S to 14. The roll call on the amendment follows: I Former Nicaraguan Dictator Found in Friend's Apartment in New York.

Surprise for Reporter. The reporter when he left Chicago was. be thought In perfect health. He had been confirmed in that opinion by a competent Chicago physician. What was the astonishment of the reporter after visiting the famous Chicago specialists to discover that Instead.

of being a well man he was. in fact a mere two legged vehicle for disease germs. For instance: At Princeton, Ili, Dr. Fruth presented the reporter with a fully developed case of stomachitis." I At Morris. IlL.

Dr. Gable discovered he bad anemia. At Joliet. III" Dr. Van Doren found him suffering from a mild case of acid In the blood.

At Galesburg, Dr. Walton pronounced him a victim of suppressed gonorrhcele" and Dr. Carson Immediately afterward diagnosed him as a victim of hallucinations. At Dixon, 111., Dr. Piper assured him he had "sexual neurasthenia." Specialists in "Getting the Money." All of this might have worried the reporter had he not found evidence to convince himself the "great Chicago specialists" are merely traveling quacks.

They are specialists. it It true. but their specialty is getting the money. Their methods are in no way different from thotte of the Chicago quacks Tax TRIBUNE already has exposed. They advertise, they throw the scare" into the patient.

they guarantee a cure to be paid for on the installment plan. These peripatetic medicine men, it was discovered. have many traits in common. One is that they all wear whiskers. It doesn't make much difference as to the cut so long as they are luxuriant and lend an air of learning to the visage.

Visit Every Twenty-eight Days. Another habit common to these traveling doctors Is the habit of making each of a string of towns once in twenty-eight days. They leave Chicago the first of the month. circle around through a route they have long followed and gather in the shekels of the credulous on the way. Their advent to each town always is heralded by advertisements In the local newspapers.

The practice of illustrating the ads with photographs is another trait peculiar to the peripatetic medicine man. It doesn't make any difference if the picture is not that of the specialist." who is advertleing. Once in a while they use another mans name. Thus Dr. Fruth was found operating under tbie name of J.

Zelaya was found asleep by special agents of the department of justice in the apartment of Washington S.

Valentine. 645 West End avenue, at 11:15 o'clock He was locked up in the West One Hundredth street station.

William (Any, chief of the eastern department of justice, assisted by city detectives, began trailing all the members of former cabinet and other Nicaraguan. known to be friends of the former president.

In this way it was learned Zelaya was probably hiding in the apartment of Mr. Valentine, who is said to be an American who has large Interests in Zelaya's country.

The hand of the Frank Parmelee company, now under inveetigation by the city council. was seen at the South Park board meeting yesterday reaching 01.1Pt for a twenty year exclusive franchise to all Passenger traftic in the South Park system. The park board just had heard an appeal from residents of Wood lawn avenue which seriously threatens the Chicago Plan development of the Midway, when Commis-stoner Edward Tilden introduced an ordinance for the Chicago Motor Bus company, a name which appears neither in the city nor telephone directories of Chicago. The ordinance was not read in open meeting of the board.

Officers of Parmelee Company. Inquiry developed the Chicago Motor Bus company is backed by officers of the Frank Parmelee company, which at present is fighting a council committee investigation of its rates. The ordinance provides the buses of this company alone shall have the right to take on, carry, and discharge passengers on the miles of boulevards and acres of parks in the jurisdiction of the south park board. The ordinance, which is drawn for twenty years. provides that a flat rate of 10 cents would be charged each passenger, of which one-half cent a mile a bus would be paid to the board for compensation.

The company states that it will, if granted the franchise, operate on lines it shall later specify at twenty minute intervals until midnight, after which time they shall run every half hour. The company says it will assume all liability for accidents. Danger to Midway Plan. The Woodlawn avenue delegation was headed by President Roy O. West of the board of review.

He demanded the board do something to take the motor trucks off Woodlawn avenue. He made two suggestions for doing thisa police order. by which traffic would be diverted to other streets, and the opening of all the streets across the Midway. At present the Midway ts crossed at intervals of one-fourth mile Most of the traffic neither originates nor terminates in Woodlawn avenue," said Mr. West.

But because it is the only street across the Midway for several blocks residents have to endure the noise. We want other streets to bear their share." Thomas Wilson. president of Morris Attorney William Rothmann. Morton Hull. B.

E. Sunny, and others made similar complaints. They thought it inevitable that all the streets across the Midway be opened. If this is done, the lagoons must be filled in and bridges and statuary already projected must be given up, unless other locations for them can be found. President John Barton Payne and Commissioner Joseph Donnersberger of the board replied the question would be investigated carefully and if it is found necessary to cut the streets through the plans for ornamentation of the highway between Jackson and Washington parks will be abandoned or modified.

Park Autos in Grant Park. At the request of the Association of Commerce, perm'ssion was granted to park automobiles during December west of the Illinois Central in Grant park between Randolph and Monroe streets.

We had crossed Broadway safely." said Mr. Peterson, still shaken by the tragedy, when we heard a crash behind us. My wife seemed to guess it was the rest of our party and screamed. She looked back and then told me to turn right around. When we got there we could see the worst, although it took a long time to realize my niece was so badly hurt" I did not see the accident, but it is my understanding the car was going at a high speed.

The motormen make that stretch a speedway and take all sorts of chances. It is impossible to see them coming and they never sound a gong. The automobile could not have been going rapidly and I think the entire fault is that of the trolley crew." Three Other Bridesmaids.

Webb eyed the mother and sister in dismay. but finally took them to dinner. He decided they should take a walk and when they got to the revolving door entrance to the hotel he slipped through and aped north down Clark etreet. The Rues followed screaming. gathering a crowd in the pursuit, and Webb was driven into the arms of a policeman at South Water street.
