It Is expected that a formal charge of
manslaughter will be placed against
Duke.
The tracks of his car show that Duke
applied tho brakes when about 300 feet
from Farr and the others, who were
gathered In the road about Hoglund's
automobile, engaged In replacing a tire.
George. Orth, who was In the group In
tl)e road and who escaped Injury, declares
that Duke was driving at the rate of
thirty miles an hour when he rounded a
curve close to the place of the accident.
Hoglund's skull Is believed to be frac
tured and he was severely bruised about
the body. Simmons' left arm Is broken,
several ribs fractured, and It Is thought
he Is Internally Injured. The attending
physician says both are in critical con
