THROWN BENEATH CAR

LOS GATOS, Mar. 16 - Miss Mary C. Coogan of San Francisco was
instantly killed when she was thrown beneath a Market st. electric
car in the metropolis on Tuesday after having been struck by a 
truck driven by Herman Hohn, proprietor of the Pine Tree Poultry
farm, near this city.  It is said that Hohn lost control of the
heavy vehicle while attempting to negotiate the steep Powell st.
hill, and in an attempt to avoid a collision with the car, struck
Miss Coogan, who had stepped from the curb directly in the patch
of the runaway truck.
