A Perplexing Tragedy Fort Wayne Journal Gazette

As more is learned concerning the death of Will H. Latta eminent meniber of the Indianapolis bar and successful law practitioner, the clearer become the circumstances and the more perplexing the reasons foér that tragedy. Mr. Latta driving to Fort Wayne to see his fiancee, to whom was to have been nrarried in New York a few days later, was struck by a Monon train at Carmel, a village’in Hamilton county. not many miles north of Indianapolis. His car was smashed and he was kill ed. : : : ""I‘hmre did ‘not at first appear to be anyvthing at all out of the ordinary or perplexing .in the circumstances of| this grade-crossing tragedy. It seemed at once to class itself with thousands of accidents of the sort takins place every year throughout the country, and would have been. so recognized in both official and popular judgment had it not been that an insurance ‘company concerned insisted upon an 'iuq_uiry of painstaking pur pose. The coroner’s inquest brings out that Mr. Latta drove upon the grade crossing stopped his car, extingilished his automobile lights and there sat to watch tlie approach ‘of the train as it bore thundering down upon him to batter the life from his body. The engineer of -the Monon locomotive testifies that his headlight I'e\*eale(l the man in the car watching tile approach of the train. A motorist who was near the Latta car as the railway train roared forward confirms this.

The coroner of Hamilton county returns an open verdict. He does not ascribe the death to accident though there is much pointing to that. He does not find a dreadful instance of suicide though some of the testimony points to that conclusion. There is no way by which it may be determined whether or not the man may have been mortally stricken as he approached the crossing and was dé‘ad when the locomotive struck his automobile. The perplexities of the case can: be solved only by -evidences that are not now and doubtless never will be available. The sigular nature of Mr. Latta’s will raises some questions of his mental state. ;Bu,t there can be nothing conclusive in that for men in responsible mental }condition’ occasionally .make strange and- even freakish testments in disposting of their property. But so far as the credible testimony taken by the coroner can iudicate any thing the death of Will H. Latta was not due to a grade-crossing accident of the description which at first it seemed to be. More light may later be obtained though that is doubtful. The affair is likely to rcmain one of those singular and inexplicable fragedies which now and then transpire to the confusion of reason.
