Antonio Marino took the witness stand to-day in his trial before Judge Talley in the Court of General Ses- sions for the murder of five-year-old Giuseppe Varotta, who was kidnapped, held for ransom, and drowned in the Hudson River a year ago. Marino Short Circuit in Power House Direct Cause of Blocking “L” and Surface Road. The Transit Commission instituted an investigation to-day into the rush- hour transportation tie-up yesterday evening. From unofficial sources it ‘was learned that there {s some scepti- ism in the commission as to the ex- use offered by the Interborough that the tie-up was due to poor steaming may hear the verdict before night. His testimony was a complete de- nial of the allegations made by Ro- berto which is the main basis of the State's case, Raffaele, already convicted as ‘one of the kidnapping band, is awalt- Raffaele in the confession ing death or Executive clemency at Sing Sing. If Raffaele’s confession is true, Marino was the agent who tried to collect the ransom for the kid- nappers, But Marino claims an alibi for the most important meetings de- scribed by Raffaele. “On Decoration Day last year,” sald Marino, ‘I was at home, playing cards with some friends when Varotta came in. He was asked to join in the game, but said his heart was heavy because of the loss of his boy. He went away. “A little later his son came and said that his father wanted to see me. I went to the Varotta home and met Varotta, his wife and a woman who said she was Mrs. Varotta's cousin. (She was really a detective.) Varotta showed me his bank book—a balance of $500—and said, ‘That's all I have.’ “I asked him why he showed it to me, and he said he would give it to any friend of mine who could bring him his lost boy. I advised him to tell the police, but he said that would do no good because he had destroyed coal and that it is hard to get the Tight kind of coal because of .the strike. Frank Hedley, President of the In- terborough, appeared at the Transit Commission about noon, in answer to # summons from Chairman George McAneny, to talk over quality of coal the Rapid Transit Corporation is now using. The Transit Commission has Jurisdiction over coal contracts only $2 amounts of 50,000 tons and upward, it was pointed out, and was not re- S quired to take cognizance of spot purchases of coal the company is #aid to have made lately. The Interborough buys its coal from the Berwind White Coal Com- Peny. Mr. Berwind ts a director in the Interborough. He refused to say anything ubout the Interborough's campluint. At the office of the Coal Age it was said that there is no acute shortage of coal as yet. At the office of the Interborough it was sald there was nothing to udd to the statement made last night that the initia! cause of the tie-up was the breakdown of a MISS ESTELLE W. STEAD.

The State has closed its case and the usual motions for dismissal have been made by counsel for the defense and denied. ——— ee THREE ARRESTS BY DRUG SQUAD Second und Third Avenue elevated ratiroude from 6.15 until 6.40, and 7 parts of the Broudway, Lexington Avenue.

The man who, during his lifetime, was himself Spiritualism’s High Priest! 'W. T. Stead. if we may take the word of his daughter, Estelle W. Stead, has returned to this world, out of which he was so violently thrust when the Titanic went down, to warn the devotees of his faith against its dangers, mistakes and abuses. What Miss Stead de- clares to be a veritable series of messages from her long dead father are contained in a remark- able little volume called ‘‘Com- munication With the Next World," published to-day by George H. Doran Company. At the place on the title page where the author's name usually appears we read. “Given by William T. Stead from ‘Beyond the Veil." In the introduction Miss Stead gives her personal word to the reader that these messages came directly from her father, through the French non-professioual me- dium, Mme. Hyver. Miss Stead repeats what she told The Evening World when she was in this country in 1913—that, even at that time she was in communicution with her father's spirit He told her then and sev- era} times later that he was in touch with a medium in France. About a year ago the matter in the book was turned over to her by an English editor, not himself a Spiritualist, who had received {t from a French relative, an ac- quaintance of the medium, Mme. Hyver. Through ap English me- dium on the day she received the manuscript, Miss Stead suys, her father reminded her-that he had prepared her for the coming of these messages. The interesting feature of the alleged spiritual wireless from Stead Is that it is as definitely a warning to dabblers in the psychic is the “Stop! Look! Listen!"* sign is a warning to motorists at crossings. In death Stead seems to be 'ess réady than tn life to swallow Spiritualism whole. In commert- ing on the book, that most cau- tious and scientific psychic inv - tigator, Sir Oliver Lodge, says that Mr. Stead, ‘whose judgment was sometimes in default, has learned the value of caution." Lodge adds that he sees no reason for not accepting the Stead mes- sages a8 from their ostensible source, and that “if we assume that the present series of com- munications emanate from, or are directed by, the intelligence of W. T, Stead, we find him im a mood of serious endeavor to undo any possible mischief from injudicious over-enthusiasm in the past.” But here are the warnings— good sense they are too, whether from Stead or no—for the parlor psychic, the dabsters and dab- blers in the occult: “Spiritualism is not a game and mediumship has great dan- gers. All who come to Spiritual- e: ism to amuse themselves, to dominate others or to craw illicit Profits frum poor dupes expose themselves *o grievous reprisal “People who experiment ought todo so in a religious and scien- tifle spirit. Unfortunately many of these private experiments are either not under serious control or are undertaken by people who have only vague notions about the subject. “Some groups are formed for amusement, while others are formed with the idea that the spirits are like genil of fairy tales, and tiat the table, like Aladdin's lamp, car work miracles. If the group contains credulous, uncontrolled and ex- citable people whose decisions for every course of action are made dependent on table rappings or planchette messages, not only ts the free will annihilated, but obsessions, nerve exhaustion and mental disorders may follow and the results will be very serious. “The danger of such proceed- ings or the consequences that may ensue cannot be too strongly emphasized.” Wilbur Glenn Voliva declares that mediums are dominated by evil spirits. The supposed Stead frankiy admits tout this is sometimes the case and that the worst perils may result. “The medium Whose aura can be penetrated by spirits is ex- posed to many dangers,” accord- ing to the ghost of the great Englishman, “for the door is open to all sorts of influences, and if his will is feeble or his mor- ality dubious he will becom prey of roving malevolent spirits, “He Is a target for dark spirits who seek to prevent the spread of light. These malevolent crea- tures endeavor to stir up a thous- and difficulties around him, to embroil him with friends and neighbors, to cause him loss of money, to thwart him tn his ord! nary profession, and to infilct {ll- ness on him. It was to guard against the dangers accompany- ing mediumship that churches forbade attempts to communicate with those who had passed on. “If the medium {s of a high moral standard, his persecutors will try to hurt Lim through his entourage, by provoking con- tinual vexations !n his social life, If the medium ts less moral and of a more material type they will strike directly at him, seeking to push him to various excesses, such as drirking or gambling. “For instance, the spirit of a young fellow who was dissipated and weak while on earth may awake elements of passion in the medium with whom he comes into contact. If that medium has simi- lar tendencies and is lacking in self-control, this may lead to seri- ous results.’ The author of ‘Communication With the Next World” lists still another danger in psychic com- munication which I have not seen mentioned elsewhere. It seems Narcotic Squad detectives visited thi St. Nottingham Apartments at No. 205 West 10ist Street last night and ar- rested Harry Breslin, wife, Bradford, with having narcotic drugs in their poe- session. a es thirty-one, his thirty-three, and Marie all charged Eleanor, twenty-seven, that the spirit world has no quar- antine wards and its germs are very much on the job. ‘A man,” we read, ‘‘carries with him to the next stage the malady which caused his ‘death,’ and so long as he has not com- pletely shaken off earth condi- tions he may transmit that mal- ady to a medium. Peopie take great precautions in dealing with cases of cholera or typhus. but nothing is done to insure that a medium is not brought into con- tact with a spirit whose passing was caused by some contagious malady. Finlly, the person who his daughter assures us is W. T. Stead lists the danger of obses- sion. “A certain number of cases of obsession are due to the spirits of the ‘dead,’"’ he ‘records, ‘“‘but many more to elementals impru- dently invoked by experiments or thought forms created by the con- stant repetition of fixed ideas “You do not realize how much power thought has.
