MOTHER HURLED
TO DEATH WITH
CHILD IN ARMS
Mrs. Bernard Garrity of Boulder
Creek Killed by Motor

\u25a0 f
Car Overtakes Family While
• Walking on Trestle Without
Sounding Any Warning
Woman Clasps and Saves Her
Daughter When Thrown 40
Feet Below Track
r [Special Dispatch to The Cell]
SANTA CRUZ, June 19.— With her
6 year old daughter clasped in
her arms, Mrs. Garrity, wife of
Bernard Garrity. a prominent resi
dent of Boulder Creek, was hurled to
death from a 40 foot railroad trestle
between Boulder Creek and Brook
dale today, when she was struck by a
motor torpedo train.
The child was seriously injured.
Two other children were knocked off
the trestle by the train, but escaped
uith minor injuries.
The mother, accompanied by her
ihree children and husband, was
walkin galong the track for an after
noon stroll. Garrity was in the lead
and was followed by his daughter,
Marjory, aged 12, and his son, George,
10 years of age. In the rear was the
6 year old daughter and the mother
walked a few steps behind her.
New Service Installed
A new motor service was installed
on the branch line last week, and of
this fact the family evidently was in
Ignorance. The road is winding and
made all the more dangerous by a
heavy fringe of trees on either side.
None knew of the approach of the
<ar until it turned a curve, and vas
upon them from the rear. The father
\u25a0was the first to sec the danger and
shouted to his wife, calling to her to
jump back from the trestle and; to
safety.
Instead she sprang forward to her
daughter's side. The moment the moth
er's arms went around the child the car
Ftruck them. The two were hurled clear
off the trestle to the creek below, the
mother meeting instant death. Her pro
tecting arms broke the fall of the child,
\u25a0 and the latter, though seriously injured.
Elder Children Escape
The two elder children had not time
to jump from the trestle, but with
great presence of mind stepped to its
edge and clung to a rail, holding each
otherV hands. The car In passing struck
them slightly, but with sufficient force
to loosen their precarious hold and
knock them to the creek bottom 40 feet
below. The father, who was far in the
lead, had ample time to step off the
tracks.
The car, according to Garrity, ap
• proaehed without any warning. None of
the family heard it whistle and Garrity
had not the slightest conception that it
trai coming until it turned the curve.

FIGHT TO BE
HELD IN
NEVADA
Tex Rickard Definitely An
nounces That Fight Will Go
to Sagebrush State
SILENCE PRESERVED
BY MAYOR MCCARTHY,
Governor Gillett Denies Rumors
That He May Have Change
of Heart
TEX RICKARD NERVOUS,
BUT KEEPS UP HOPE
Shortly after midnight this morn
ing Tex* Richard announced that the
fight vill ta\e place in Nevada July
4. Rickard mill leave for Reno this
morning at 10:40. He says he will
decide upon the location of the battle
ground as soon as he reaches the Sage- s
brush stale and confers with the com
mittee from Reno and Coldfield.
THOSE who had expected some
announcement from Mayor Mc-
Carthy on the prize fight situa
tion yesterday were doomed to disap
pointment, in spite of the tiotoc
anxiety, which has kept the sporting
fraternity speculating on his probable
action during the last 48 hours. The
mayor, has maintained a sphinxlike
silence, in spite of the action of the
labor council 'and of Acting Mayor
Kelly in condemning Governor Gillett.
It 'was expected that an important
meeting would be held yesterday be
tween-attorneys and officials and that
McCarthy would make some an
nouncement for publication last night.
\u25a0Instead, the mayor insisted that no
conference had been arranged and that
he- had discussed the situation with
nobody. Before reaching Sacramento,
•after' leaving Reno on his way west.
McCarthy had an hour's conference on
the train with Attorney Cleveland L,
Dam, whp had hurried to meet hun
before. he arrived at the Oakland
mole. -While nothing was. announced
at that time, Dam's dual position as
counsel for the mayor and attorney
for Blot, the promoter, raised the pre
sumption that sipme declaration would
be made by the city executive as soon
as he had an opportunity to settle
himself after his long journey. Fur
ther assurance of a probable state
ment was -given when the Hotelmen's
association, headed by Kirk Harris,
who, had declared Gillett's action ill
advised, crossed the bay to Sixteenth
street" depot and' conferred with him
privately in his section on the ovcrr
land. '/ '-:-.
The sporting men at the hotels and
about the city, straining to hear one
word of hope from McCarthy were
forced to retire, with the prospect of"
moving on Reno considerably greater.
; "There is absolutely nothing for me
to say now." said McCarthy last night
at his;home. "I have spent the. day,
with my wife and friends and have
attended no" conference. - -I have only
given my attention to a few social
engagements and as yet have taken
up, nothing in the nature of municipal,
business. The. entire day has been
spent iii taking a ride about the city
and dining with company. I have
nothing to announce on the prize
fight situation, or other matters* of a
civic nature:'
. This - announcement was made at
9:3o: o'clock. At that time'the mayor
was: retiring. When it was learned
tlfat' .nothing new had developed
visions of Reno became clearer to
those 'who had expected something
'sensational^ or new. from the lips of
the* city's chief executive.
"AWi WHA T'S THE USE,"
IS BLOTS CONCLUSION
After mature consideration and much
weighty consultation, Louis Blot, pro
moter of. 'the unfought Langford-Kauf
man fight, came to the conclusion yes
terday^that it would be an exceedingly,
funwfse policy for him -to attempt "to
force the hand of Governor James jpf.
Gillett by having a te3t tight, as h«
originally .planned, there having arisen
'a healthy doubt ; in his : mind •as to the
weight, the aforesaid, hand, carried ? and
the direction it would falL Accordingly
he declared there would be no flght» for,
quoth : he: £S^XBKBBKSBfiw&rK * J_

Blot's scheme was a" marvel of sim

the Langford-Kaufman battle he de
cided, to have twofthird raters enter
