FATHER OF VICTIM BELIEVES
CAR COMPANY CRIMINALLY
NEGLIGENT— NO FENDERS ON
CARS—POINT AGAINST COM
PANY.
James Locke, stepfather of Ben Wal-
lace, the negro who was killed by an
Englewood street car, declares that he
will bring a big damage suit against
the street railway company on account
of the son's death.
Locke is of the opinion that the ac-
cident occurred because of criminal
negligence on the part of the street
railway company.
Wallace was killed Tuesday night
while enroute home from work at the
Oklahoma brick plant. The accident
occurred about 8 o'clock near where
the Englewood track crosses the Rock
Island.
The body will be buried in the negro
section of Fairlawn cemetery today.
A jury empaneled by Justice W il-
liam H. Zwick to inquire into the
cause of the negro's death, viewed the
body yesterday at the Marshall under-
laking establishment a#id was dis-
missed to meet again today, when the
testimony of fifteen witnesses will be
heard. - i
The jurv is composed of Shirley
Dyer, W. W. Glaze, H. C. Hanson, W.
e! Guyer, J. W. Wagoner and A. C.
Johnson.
Since the above fatal street car acci-
dent, the public has been brought face
to face with the fact that Oklahoma
City street cars are not provided with
fenders—meaning sudden death to any-
one falling directly in front of a speed-
ing car. I
In the damage suit to follow the |
above killing, the strongest point
against the street car company will
be the fact that there were no fender
on the car that killed the negro.
There is little satisfaction in dam-
age suits, however, when human lives
are at stake. What the people of Ok-
lahoma City want is that the street car
company provide said "cow-catchers,
and thereby save perhaps some of our
best people from being ground be-
neath the wheels of a passing street
car.
The city council will doubtless take
action in the matter.
