Nelson of Phila- delphia for the death of her son, Law- rence, 20, a member of the crew of the steamship Frederick, which sank in midatlantic in January, 1916, while en route from this port to Archangel with a cargo of war munitions The Federal District Court Jury, which returned the verdict, held that the Frederick's owners, Charles W. Morse, his son, Benjamin W.; and Capt. Mark L. Gilbert, had been guilty of consiparacy in sending the vessel to sea with the knowledge that she was unseaworthy. The 30 members of the crew all were lost. Attorneys for the Morses said they would appeal the ver- dict to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. In Service 47 Years.

Attorneys for Mrs. Nelson read into the record messages found in a bot- tle cast up on one of the Orkney Islands in 1817.

CO-OPERATE The Traffic Bureau announces that what maybe called “The Warn- ing and Interval System” is henceforth to be used by officers on traf- ‘fic control duty in Washington. Co-operation by traffic officers, motorists and pedestrians is essen- tial to its success. The obligations of each are herewith briefly listed. THE OFFICER'S DUTY. To blow a long blast on his whistle as a warning that he is about to shift the direction of trafic. To see that the intersection is clear of moving vehicles and pedestrians before he completes the shift. THE MOTORIST'S DUTY. If in the moving stream of traffic. to keep his ears open for the warning whistle. To stop back of the sidewalk intersection, when it is blown, or if he has already passed that interscction, to proceed. If in the waiting stream of traffic, to prepare to move forward upon the blowing of the warning whistle. Not to move until either the semaphore is turned or the officer motions him to do so. THE DUTY OF THE PEDESTRIAN To notice the direction of the flow of traffic and to keep off the crosswalks being crossed by traffic. When the warning whistle blows, to clear the crosswalks acrosg which traffic is about to be ordered to T were sem; T, who Wednesday Stanley discovered morning, tion suicide, it ide to fall Churchmen to Pray for Interces- sion Tomorrow.

St. Jude was one of the apostles and first martyrs. He was a close rela- tive of the Virgin Mary. He ranks as one of the foremost saints in the church calendar, but until recent years devotion to him among church people has not been marked. In many Catholic and Episcopal churches vesterday the congregations were urged 1o test the saint's powers by appealing to him on his feast day tomorrow.
