Paul Jones, 1359 North S’ venteenth street, was removed to the I,ord Uster hospital suffering from a frac- ■ tured jaw. The ear in which the three men were riding was going north on Six teenth street, following another auto mobile and a street car. At Nicholas street the street car stopped suddenly. The machine between the Jacobson car and the street ear stopped sharply, avoiding a crasii. and Jacobson was . forced to turn to the left to avoid ' •striking the other machine. AS he swung to the left of the northbound street car, a southbound ear speeding down the Sixteenth street hill, crashed into his machine. It was demolished and the three men were hurled to the street. The street car was traveling so rapidly that tlie motorman, C. O. Gorman, was unable to stop until he hail pushed the wrecked automobile 30 feet. Witnesses of the accident declared that the street car had conic down the hill at a speed of more than 30 milea an hour and had not sounded the bell. Jones was taken to I,nrd Uster hos pital. The other two men were taken to the police station and attended by T)r. Kinyoun. assistant police surgeon, and then sent to their homes. All of the men are expected to recover.
