Autoist Fined for Collision With Motorcycle—May Appeal.

Goodte/nd Herald. Saturday, 13th, proved an unlucky date for George Kanrinekle. At about 10 o’clock that evening he, in company with- three friends, left Remington and started to Good land and when near the Frank Simonin place just east of town he met Hairy Loutz, who was going east on bis motorcycle. The latter claimed that there was only one light burning on the automobile and he naturally supposed it was another motorcycle, and for the time it/seams that in the effort otf both parties in trying to pass each other they became confused, and in the eoUftsion the motorcycle Was badly dams.r'ed. Lrnt Saturday Mr. Loutz swore out a warrant for the arrest of Kanrruokle and Wednesday the case was tried be- J fore a jury. Prosecuting Attorney Fred Longwall wa-: 1 there to represent the state and Jasper Guy represented the defendant. The folio wing men served on the jury: Fred Gilmon Chairman, Wm. Patrick, John Uflm, Wm. Burke, W. H. Dowell, Wm, McCurry, Ray Dowell, Chris. Goutscihe, George Amtdiff, Albert Verrdll, James iCullnon and .Jbhtn Jensen. Four boloOits were token before a verdict could be reached. The first stood 10 for conviction and 2 for acquittal; second, 11 for and 1 against, the third was the same and the fourth 12 for coviotion. A fine of $1 and costs was meted out, Which will amount to something over S2O. We learned that the defendant was going to take an appeal, because the verdict rendered gives the plaintiff grounds to bring on a damage suit to recover loss Ifor the damage done to his motorcycle which we were informed amounted to about S2O.
