MURDER FOLLOWS ACCIDENT
Three-Year-old Child Ran Over and
Killed by Brewery Wagon Driver.
FATHER AT ONCE TAKES REVENGE
Glnaeppo Bonglgl Shoot and In
stantly Kill William Kragrman
on the Street of New
-ork City.
NEW TORK, April 30. (Special Tele
gram.) Because he ran over a 3-year-old
child on Forty-eighth street near First
venue. William Krugman, a driver for th
James Everard Brewing company, was
shot dead lata today by Giuseppe Bonglgl,
the father.
The man snapped a revolver at the police
man who chased him after the shooting,
but the cartridges had been discharged and
the hammer fell on an empty shell.
The race was sharp and short, and the
policeman was forced to use the butt of
his gun before he could make the man a
prisoner.
By thl time the entire neighborhood was
In an uproar and It was necessary to send
for the police reserves. They arrived Just
as Paul (the little boy) was being brought
home by Dr. Botsford, who had come from
Flower hospital. Mr. Bonglgl had fol
lowed her son to the drug store, and as
she had refused to permit Dr. Botsford to
take the lad to the hospital, he took him
home. The woman and boy were about
to enter the hall when they were attracted
by cries of "lynch him," and the woman
saw an Irate crowd surrounding her hus
band and Bertram. Bo great and threaten
ing was the crowd that the reserve headed
by Captain O'Connor had difficulty In
rescuing the policeman and hi prisoner,
whom finally they got to the station house,
wher half a dozen witnesses came forward
to testify that Krugman had hit th boy
accidentally. After the excitement had
died out, the police were Informed that
the injured boy was In convulsion. Then
hi mother wanted an ambulanc to take
him to the hospital, so that a third call
was sent In and he was hurried to th
hospital, where he died.

treme case of lack of memory.
"She told me." said Mr. Stacey, "that
one night she dreamed that she saw 832,
000 worth of bonds hidden In a dog kennel
near the Armour home. So greatly was
she exercised by thl dream that she arose
In her night clothes and, without waiting
to dress, went to the kennel. The bonds
were there, Just aa ah had dreamed they
were. She doe not remember having taken
them from the safety deposit vault."
