Diffel as to ( ause of Death In Accident Temagaml. June l7.â€"â€"4Speeial to The Advancerâ€"Doctors differed regarding the cause cm death of a 110-pound mo- ther of twelve children fatally injured when two automobiles crashed near the crest of a hill a half mile north of lthis village late last Saturday after- noon, and as a result of which tragedy separate enquiries were held here and in Haileybury before two district cor- oners this week. While Dr. Cyril H. McGowan. of Temagami. who attended the victim. asserted in signing the death certificate that a fractured skull had been fatal to Mrs. Laura Julien Dionne. 59-year-old woman from Saint George De Beauce. Quebec. Dr. J. H. L. Brennan. of the Misericordia hospi- tal at Haileybury. who performed the post mortem. swore there were no signs of a fracture and he considered death to have been due to hemorrhages in the chest cavity induced by ruptured blood vessels. THURSDAY. JUNE 17TH, 1937 Dr. Brennan testified to this effect1 both at Haileybury before Dr. W. C.‘ Arnold and a jury. and also here before Dr.A. E. Ranney. of North Bay who sat alone.

Dr. McGowan. who was called to at- tend Mrs. Dionne and who flew with her to Haileybury soon after the acci- dent. told Coroner Ranney of a con- tusion on the woman's forehead and of a broken windshield in the hus- band‘s car. against which she had been thrown. and he said thai‘ in the ab- sence of other physical symptoms he came to the conclusion Mrs. Dionne had sustained a fractured skull.

Evidence given at the hearing in Te- magami told of the accident which happened when Louis Karr, Winnipeg carpet salesman proceedng from New Liskeard to Sudbury. collided with Ame- dee Dionne. driving to Val d’Or to visit his son. Paul Dionne. merchant there. Each was accompanied by his wife. Following the accident. Karr was ar- rested by Provincial Constable Braney en a charge of crimnial negligence. on which he was released on $2500 cash bail to appear for preliminary hearing at North Bay on June 28. It is under- stood he will elect jury trial. Kerr was represented at the proceedings here by Harry Reynolds. North Bay barrister. Peaches - - - 26c Choice.

Dionne told the court he had raised rim-en chuck-en. three of them having been adopted. it. is understood. Both drivers. in their evidence before] Coroner Ranney. swore they had been on their own side of the road and were driving at a moderate speed. but Dionne. ciaimed the other car had approached him "rushing at a terrible speed." The Karr machineâ€"a coupeâ€"struck the Dionne coach. the driver of the latter said. as he was turning his wheel to take the ditch. Dionne swore that Karr "had made absolutely no steps to avoid the accident." and he added that Karr repeated several times that "it's too bad he killed her." On the other.hand Karr. corroborated by his wife, swore that because of a broken shock ab- sorber. he had been forced to travel slowly for ten miles prior to the crash. He said also that. from a sign on the road. he had expected a gradual turn approaching the village and instead had come unexpectedly on a steep hill. He had trouble then with his steering wheel when the Dionne car was only 100 feet away as he came over the hill and “I 1 just couldn't get the car over." Karr said he had applied his brakes at the top of the hill. where according to Constable Braney, there was loose gravel. although this. he told the cor- oner. was “the average condition of the road.“ The officer said Karr told him the car had skidded and had got out of control. Witness had found skid; marks for 107 feet behind the Karr. coupe. he said. Paul Dionne identified| the body of his mother at both sittingsl and the only other witness heard at! Halleybury was Dr. Brennan. Other wit- nesses heard here included Mrs.aRosc Karr. who had sustained two black eyes in the fatality. and John Cowley. garage mechanic. No verdict was entered here by Dr. Ranney. the coroner saying he would issue his finding later. At Haileybury. the jury told Coroner Arnold the wo- man had died “from injuries said to have been received in an automobile accident at 'I‘emagami." The body of the deceased woman. whose husband said he had made previous trips through this district. was sent to Beauce county on Tuesday night’s train. husband and son accompanying it. Paul Dionne flew out from Val d‘Or to Haileybury by way of Rouyn on being advised of his mo- ther‘s death. which occurred less than three hours after she had written post- cards back home from Temagami.

Everything is in readiness for the Dufferin Park running race meeting that gets under way at the Toronto half-mile track this Saturday. June 19 and incidentally closes down the spring season of racing in the Queen City for this season. Woodbine opened it, fol- lowed by Thornclif’fe and the Long Branch session came to a conclusion Wednesday. June 16th. There is no more popular track than Duflerin. situated as it is in the very heart of Toronto and easy of access from all over. This year there is no amusement tax and.the admission of one dollar covers everything. There are seven races daily. with the first race getting under way at 2.30 pm. In the neighbourhood of 3336.000 is given away in purses during the meeting which explains why the best runners in these parts are. being held over for this ses- sicn. Of interest also is the fact that the minimum purse is no less than $700. the same as rules at Woodbine parts are being held over for this sesâ€" sien. Of interest also is the fact that the minimum purse is no less than $700. the same as rules at Woodbinel Park. Canada's leading mile track. The Daily Double is again on the first and second races. and there is a new| service that will be appreciated by bet-f ters in that the approximate odds on the first and SCSSld race are posted before the running of the initial event to given patrons an opportunity of figuring out what the double prices will be. This service was inaugurated at Longr Branch and proved so popular that i: will be continued at Duflerin Park and will probably be in use at Queen's Park, the Orpen-Hare track in London where an eleven-day meeting gets under way on Wednesday, July 21. As at Long Branch. the saliva. test will be in effect at Duflerin Park, every winner and any other horse selected by the Stewards or recommended by the track veterinarian being subject to a test cf the saliva for traces of.stimu- lants.
