The mule wandered on the track of the East St. Louls and Suburban Railway and at 6 a. m. was struck by a street car, 50 feet south of the viaduct which spans the tracks of the St. Louis, Troy and Hastern Rall- road. The mule was shoved along the tracks by the car to the top of the bridge. The animal dropped from the via- duct to the railroad below, as the front trucks of the street car jumped the track. The car was stopped near the edge of the bridge, and the 10 passengers got out safely. The crew of the car ran down to the railroad tracks in time to stop an approaching train from running bassador and his staff were escorted to the palace by a detachment of the Roy- al Guards. Ambassador Willard later called on Premier Dato and the principal members of the Spanish royal family.
