Four men are under arrest, three here and one in Buffalo.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, November 10.— Twelve soldlers were injured today, two seriously, when an Army truck in which thirty members of Company A, Edgewood Arsenal, were riding to the Third Army Corps—Fleet foot ball game crashed into a tree on the Philadelphia pike, near Joppa, Md. The truck, which was the last of a convoy, was forced off the road by a large lumber truck bound in the opposite direction. Witnesses said the two large trucks were unable to | pass each other on account of the condition of the concrete shoulders on the side of the road, which are in | [ !need of repair. When the chauffeur driving the Army truck attempted to get hack on the concrete road, the machine swerved and struck a large tree on the side of the pike. The machine was badly damaged, and the soldlers in the truck were thrown into a heap in front of the machine. All the, injured men were given first ald by residents in the yicinity of the accident, and later rethoved to the arsenal In Army ambulances. house, in Ryer's possei mitted, police claim, that wiven $23.000 in bonds by Blackford Hart claimed no knowledge of the bond theft and police believe he was used as a dupe.
