Mr. Hall went to the Phillips farm to ytemporize with Mrs. Mills regarding her infatuation for him, the investiga- ‘tor suggested Mr. Stricker look over ‘again a letter written by Mrs. Mills in which she named a fellow member of the choir, a woman who was almost as potoriously seeking the favor of the mainister as was Mrs. Mills herself, aa the person who was spreading the stories in the congregation regarding the use by the rector and Mrs, Mills of the church horse sheds as a “spooning place."

He pointed out that has no option in the matter, but that if asked by the local prosecutors Or the Supreme Court Justice of the “District to step into the case, he is obliged, under the law, to do so, and Middlesex Counties are within the jurisdiction of "Supreme Court Justice Charles W. ‘Parker, with whom the calling of the ‘Attorney General) into the Superseded by the Supreme Court.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct, 12 (Asso- lated Press).—M. Franklin-Boullion, one of the French delegates to the Mudania armistice conferenee, before sailing for Marseilles on the cruiser Metz, declared that the preservation of peace In the Near East was due to the efforts of Mustapha Kemal Pasha, the Turkish Nationalist leader, “If to-day an armistice tas been sighed,” he said, ‘the credit for it belongs to Kemal, who at the most critical moment, when the Angora Assembly showed {ts determination to reject the Allled terms, used all his authority as Commander in Chief of the Nationalist army and succeeded in effecting material modifications in the Deputies’ views and demands without impairing the national. pride. “Kemal, by his strong will and ex- traordinary statesmanship, broke the stubbornness of the Assembly.’’ M. Bouillen expressed the opinion that the peace conference cannot be held before November. Mustapha Kemal, he said, would not consent to holding it in Constantinople, Beikos, Scutari, Prinkipo or any other place within the domains of the Sultan's Government. He referred to the annoyance caused the Mudania Welegates by the lack of telegraphic facilities. “Wireless proved a deplorably inadequate means of communication,”’ he said. ‘‘Most ir- ritating complications were caused by the congestion in the air and confusion of messages. Deciphering was 80 slow that frequently it required from thirty-six to seventy-two hours to communicate with our home Govern- ments.""

The complaint points out, that the two complainants have mre than twenty-four ships which carry’ pas- sengers in and out of this port; that the crews are mostly citizens of for- eign countries which do not have pro- hibition laws, and that they would have great difficulty in obtaining nde- quate crews if they are prohibited from furnishing “a usual and reason- ablo a1..ount of liquor to members of the crews."* The complaint also states that the Italian law requires that certain of- ficers and members of the crew shall be Italian when third class Italian passengers are carried, and that third class passengers nd crew members must be given Italian wine, contain ing not less than 12 per cent. of alcohol; that the Whips cannot get a license to carry Italian third class Passengers until the supplies and wino on board have been tested and it is found there is a sufficient supply, not be known until a chemical test is made. Johnnie took the knife home to his mother and she threw tt away, but later, thinking it might have some connection with the tragedy, retrieved it and last night her hpsband, ‘Thomas Lyons, turned it over to the police.

Mrs. Jean Siegel, twenty-two, of No 184 Pennsylvania Avenue, Brooklyn, and hre three-year-old daughter, Marion, were badly injured last night when an automobile, which Mrs, Siegel was driv- ing, overturned at Etna Street and Autumn Avenue, Brooklyn. They were removed to the Kings County Hospital, the child sufferin from a posaible fracture of the skull and lacerations, Mrs. Slegel has a broken finger, cuts and bruises. Both were pinned under the auto when {t up-ended Mrs. Siegel, in trying to avoid an automobile, ran her own machine upon the sidewalk, where It overturned.

It was from McKee, still dazed, that the police obtained their first and, so far, only complete account of the ac- cident. He began by saying that last night O'Dowd drove the racer to where h®, Deghan and O'Donnell were standing at 49th Street and Tenth Avenue and asked them if they wented to go for a ride. “We got into the car and drove off,” he said. “O'Dowd had some booze and we took drinks. I guess wo took goo much, I didn't drive the car. O'Dowd took it out and was driving it.’* About 5.30 o'clock this morning, he continued, O'Dowd was driving the car northward on Riverside Drive, ap- parently on the way to take Degnan home to 98th Street. Degnan was then sitting on the small running board seat. O'Donnell was in the rea> seat and he, McKee, was sitting beside O'Dowd. The speed was increased until at least seventy miles an hour was at- tained. From 7th to 90th Streets the drive sweeps in a wide curve, and in taking it the racer suddenly swung to the left side of the roadway. An instant afterward the driver lost con- trol of.it and the car leaped for the curb, hurdied it and crashed into a tree, almost tearing it from the ground. ‘Then the crumpled racer upset. ’ The terrific impact flung; Degnan from his seat, hurling him into a tree fitty feet away, his head striking tho pavement. It is likely that he was killed at once, Residents of the neighborhood were aroused by the crash and several blew police whistles. When Patrolmen Ryan and Halligan of the West 100th Street Station responded from their Broadway posts they found McKee and O'Donnell unconscious — and tangled In the wreckage of the racer, Aided by persons who had been drawn to the scene by the noise, the injured men were extricated from the auto- mobile. The fact that there was a fourth man in the racer was learned from some one who said he had looked out of hts window when the crash oc- curred and seen a man hastening from the wreck. At the Midtown Garage {t was said to-duy that O'Dowd had ‘taken--the car out at 11 o'clock fast night. A large crowd gathered this orn ing ubout the wreck in the ,Wrive, peering at the car and the bloodstains about it.

She received possible internal injuries and abrasions of the head and face. McDonald took her to Knickerbocker Hospital. William Harris, thirty-four, No. 204 18th Street, Brooklyn, was taken to the Swedish Hospital to-day suffering from a fractured hip, following a col- lision between an automobile in which he was riding and another car oper- ated by Frank Dunn, No. 1350 Ber- gen Street. ‘The collision occurred at Bedford Avenue and Fulton Street, Brooklyn. Charles Bush, No. 388 16th Street, Brooklyn, owner and driver of the car in which Harris was riding, escaped uhinjured. Dunn also was unhurt. Harris was pinned beneath the overturned car. HARDING WABBLES ON DAUGHERTY'S SEA RUM RULING (Continued, ) Ing its use and declaring a fine of $1,000; (b) the so-called transporta- tion section, Section 26, which ‘pro- vides for the ‘seizure and forfeiture of the water or aircraft or other ve- hicle.’’ ‘This latter section, however, is inyoked as a proceeding accom- panying criminal prosecution against the driver or master of the vehicle or craft and is for transportation only.” Ocean liners could be considered in the same category as a bootlegging automobile ,in case of proven viola- tion of the liquor laws, according to the department's legal® authorities, The penalty of seizure and forfeltuge would become operative with equal certainty, it was edclared, whether the “conveyance” is a leviathan of the seas, costing millions of dollars, or a second hand automobile. Mellen said to-day'that foreign ships sailing for the United States on or before Oct. 14, carrying liquor, will be allowed to take it back to their home port Regarding the wine ration served on Italian and French ships, he said the Daugherty ruling wouldy mal such a wine mess illegal within the three-mile limit, but added that the question of seizure of wine carried as part of crews’ rations would have to be gone into more thoroughly. He first said it might be construed as coming under medical liquor, but later reversed this opinion. The regulations to be formulated will define medicinal liquor that may lawfully be carrled, Mellon indicated, No attempt has yet been made to decide how much of it is necessary for medicinal purposes aboard ship.

Candler, of the Methodist Church, and Judge John 8. Candler are brothers of Asa Candler, and Asa Candler jr. is his eldest son. What legal action is to be taken by Mrs. de Bouchel had not been an- nounced. She reiterated her previous declaration that she is not here to make “any demands of a financial na- ture upon Mr. Candler," but to insist that he tell her the name of the man or men who ‘‘slandered"’ her to him, “Yesterday Mr. Gamble, in confer- ence with Mr. Candler and his son, asked again for this Mrs. de Bouchel said. refused to divulge it. “Tam tempted at times to beliove that there was no informant—that their wholo story was trumped up as a last minute effort on the part of Mr. Candler's relatives to prevent our mar- riage. I am going to find out, one way or the other. There are ways to get this Information and my attorney will determine the proper way." Mrs. de Bouchel says. there is ab- solutely no desire on her part for 2 reconciliation with Candler. ‘He has proved herself weak,"’ she snapped out. “He lacks backbone or good old- fashioned ‘gumption.* “My {dol not only had clay feet, which I rather suspected, but turned out to be all clay—and very plastic clay in the hands of his relatives. “I came here and immediately your Georgia people classed me as the un. derdog. ‘Their rally to my aid has touched me deeply. I leave to-night with the expressions of deepest sym- pathy from hundreds of people."” After telling of meeting Candler at Atlanta’ during the Confederate Na- tional Reunion in 1919 Mrs, de Bou chel said: “On leaving here after the reunion I went to New York., I received num- erous letters from him while there. 1 went away to Europe, where I stayed seven months, but he continued to write me, professing his affection. “At that time I still was Mrs. Rocquet, not having obtained my divorce from my former husband, and he had no reason to suspect that there had been a rift between my husband and myself. It was a distinct surprise, therefore, when I walked down the gang plank upon returning to this country to see. Mr. Candler waving his handkerchief delightedly.”" Mrs. de Bouchel said that during her absence her husband had mis- managed her affairs, and had lost considerable money “playing cotton futures, She decided to obtain a divorce from him, she said, and went to Reno in December of 1920. She con- tinued: “Mr. Candler had nothing whatever to do with my ‘divorce, It was in- evitable, It would have come had I never met Mr. @andlers So I went to Reno and established a residence there. “When I went to Lake Tahoe, Cal., on an outing, Mr. Candler visited me there, und when I was in Los Angeles in Jan of this year he also came there.

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich., Oct. 12.— Two races, one for large, multl- motored bomb or mail-carrying alr- planes and the other for light epm- mercial craft, ushered in to-day the three-day air racing meet at Self- ridge Field. The meet closes Saturday with the national air cla#sic, the Pulitzet Trophy: race. More than 100 planes, representing the best fighting machines of the army and navy, aerial mail carriers ind experimental craft, were here to compete in thé various eyenjs, in- cluding one plane built as far back as 1918, which ‘stills holds a record, «nd the latest speed creations. Their performance is to be watched closely by army and navy aviation chiefs and aircraft engineers, who de- clare that such competition alone ap- proaches the exacting conditions of war and discloses the merits or de- fects of the various types, The ser- vice experts included Rear Admiral Moffett of the navy, Major Gen. Pat- rick, Chief of the Army Air Service, and his assistant, Brig. Gen, Mitchell Edwin Denby, Secretary of the Navy, plans to witness the Pulitzer race, Army entries were in the majority in the opening day's races. Four Martin bombers ‘and one Martin transport, each powered by two 400- horsepower Liberty motors, were the starters in the multi-motor plane race for the Air Mail Trophy, offered by the Detroit News. All these ships are after the same general dgsign, extept that the transport is fftted out to carry twelye passengers, instead of a load of explosives. The race was considered more of 4 sporting event than a test of per- formance and speed, for the huge planes can travel but little more than 100 miles an hour. The bombers were to fly ten’ times around a twenty-four-mile triangular course, most of which is over lower Lake St. Clair, The three pylons nust be turned at an altitude of less than 400 feet and on the last leg of each lap a balloon anchored at an altitude of 2,000 feet must be hurdled. The lighter plane race, for the De trolt Aviation Country Club trophy, was under the same rules that gov- ‘erned the bombers. Two single motor army machines and four commercial planes piloted by civilians were en- tered in this event. It brought into competition a wide range of motor power, the Curtiss entry being driven by a 160-horsepower Curtiss C-6 notor, while the army planes carried Liberty 128 of 400 horsepower. Two of the machines mounted 200-horse- power Hispano Suiza motors. PANES FROM MITCHEL FI FORCED TO LAND BY STORM, CLEVELAND, Oct. 12.—Fear for the safety of five of seven army alrplanes which left Mineola, N. Y., yesterday for Selfridge Field, near Detroit, were dis- pelled this morning when the radio re- ports from Mitchel Field, sald that all the planes and pHets had landed safely after making forced langings because of heavy wind and rain. © te THE FORD LEADS AT SECOND TURN IN FISHERMAN’S RACE Accident Forces Schooner Elizabeth Howard Out of Elimination Trial Contest.

None of the boats had their lee rails awash, A mile from the second turn the Howard hauled down her jig topsail and her staysail and the Fords passed her to leeward at 11.40 o'clock.’ At 12.10 o’clock the Howard, after the second turn, hauled off the course and headed for Gloucester to step a new topmast for to-morrow’s race. ‘The Ford increased its lead to more than a mile after passing the second mark,*with Yankee half a mile ahead of the Dunton ao SS VIOLENT EARTHQUAKE IN PERU.

Force to the uttermost will be used from this time forth to show the world that our name is not a joke."" There is more to the declaration, but that Is the meat of it. Already the Army of the Clarences is mobil- izing in all parts of the country under the leadership of Commander in Chief Clarence ey of Cleveland.
