474G TRESPASSERS KILLED
Railroads of Country Start Campaign
to Reduce Fatalities of That
Sort
According to statistics made public by
tho Commlttco on the Trespassing Evil
of tho Association of Railway Claim
Agents, 474i persons were killed In ths
country in ih -wnno trespassing on rail
road property, S26 lost one limb, 172 lost
two limbs, and SOU met with other serious
Injuries. Of those killed and Injured
10,224 were men and Ml women.
Thu report says that 1313 of those In
the accidents were hoboes, 6328 were not
nnd 31 IG wero doubtful. Those known to
havo been intoxicated at the time of their
Injury numbered 1783. In the State of
Now York tfiero were 832 accidents to
persons trespassing on railroad property
.and SOI deaths.
"Experience has Indicated," the report
says, "that the enactment of appropriate
legislation will not materially reduce the
trespassing, nor will the enforcement of
such laws accomplish much townrd the
elmlnatlon of this evil without the support
nnd assistance of the public. It is neces
sary that a. campaign of education be
conducted. This may be done along the
following lines:
"First, rostlng notices of laws pro
hibiting trespassing where same exist.
"Second. Personal appeals to editors
of newspapers along the road (this for
the purpose of securing their aid through
the press In setting before the public
facts pertaining to the evil, and espe
cially the necessity for parents to wain
children and keep them off railroad
tracks).

SOMEBODY TOLD UNTRUTHS ABOUT
MILLBOURNE FIREMEN, SAYS CHIEF
Claims Record for Being Fastest Company and Will
Punish Subordinate Who Spread Tales Beat
Darby in a 12-Mintite
oluntccr firemen of Mlllbourno nre
quicker than those of Darby, they declare,
furthermore they assert that they bent
tho Dnrby firemen to n nre In lansdowne
the other night. They nlso nssort that
Nthcy bent all the other flic companies to
the Lnnsdowne nre, except the Lans
downe Fire Company Itself which lives
there.
It was denied today by the Mlllbourne
Volunteers that the delay In stnrtlng their
new- J33W motortruck w. s due to a defect
.. ,cnrbureler nnd thty assert cm
phntlcalh that the seir-stai ting truck
dldn t start becauso a new stoiage bat
tery hadn't arrived. Regardless of this
drawback. honcer. II. II. Thatcher, the
oldest member of the companr, declared
that they made the run fiom Mlllbourno
to Lansdowne In 12 minutes. This Is re
garded ns remarkable speed In view of
tho hills and loundabout route which the
flro laddies had to take.
Thatcher, who Is known as' "Pop" be
cause ho Is fil jcara young, said there
nro pullbncks In Mlltbouino who wouldn't
get out of bed to go to a fire. These per
sons, he said, spiead reports about the
nro company which arc somo distance
from tho facts.
Chief rrciidcnbergcr agreed with
Thatcher, and declared there was Jeal
ousy behind It all, duo to persons who
wanted to hold office In the company and
failed.
"We're going to have nn Investigation,"
said the chief, "and If we Und that a
member of tho lire company Issued state
ments nttncklng our organization he'll be
tired. Some people won't help to put out
a (Ire themselves nnd knock those who
do."
To prove that the Mlllbourne Volunteer
Compnny No. 1 bad been successful In
extinguishing (Ires tho chief pointed to a
clock which had been rescued In the first
lire attended by the company. The clock,
which was of tho eight-day species, waif

NEXT WEEK TO DECIDE
FATE OF MRS. M0HR
Testimony of Healis, Negro
Chauffeur of Murder Car,
Only Thing Feared
PROVIDENCH, R. I., Jan. 15.
After a week's attack, tho State of
Rhode Island adjourned with senrccly
any ndvantngo today In tho campaign
to wrest Mrs. EllznbcthyF. Mohr, girlish
widow of Dr. Charles F, Mohr. from her
two children nnd Bend nor to prison per
haps for life.
Charged with hiring Cecil Victor Drown
nnd Henry Spcllman, negro youths, to
ambush nnd slay the debonnolro physi
cian to society lenders of tho Newport
colonics, Mrs. Mohr today still stood In
tho shadow of the gray old prison. Next
week's developments may decide whether
tho rest of her days shall be spent In the
grim steel nnd stono structure or In tho
cottngo scarcely two miles away, whero
llttlo feet patter through tho halls to
meet her as sho returns thoso nights
from tho ordeal of court.
Police Chief Thomas G. Robblns, of
Bairlngton, gave tho only damaging tes
timony against hor He described In
grnphlo detail the negroes' visit to the
scene of tho crime and their telling him
whero they threw tho rovolvers In Echo
Lake. His convincing manner was as
Important ns Robblns" actual testimony,
carrying no suggestion that the witness
desired particularly to aid the prosecu
tion. Chief Inspector William F. O'Neill,
of Providence, and Police Commissioner
Uenjnmin P. Moulton wero poor witnesses
for Attorney uenerai nice.
A rumor, circulating today, that George
Healis, negro chauffeur of Doctor Mohr's
death car, had mado a new confession to
Attorney Lewis last Wednesday night nt
tho Providence Jail, appears to be without
foundation, Lewis will not admit that
Hcnlls made a "third" confession, al
though he called on Hcalls, nt the chauf
feur's request Wcdnesdny night.
According to the report Healis' now
confession exonerates Mrs. Elizabeth T.
Mohr and tho two negroes, nnd tends to
throw the blamo for tho murder on his
own shoulders. The rumor further de
clares that Healis admitted stopping tho
automobile on the road to make repairs,
managed to get behind Doctor Mohr nnd
Miss Burger and shot them for tho sake
of robbery. Ho then pretended that other
accomplices had committed the murder
from ambush.
Tho State's trump enrd Is the atory of
George Healis, negro driver of tho mur
der car, who has turned State's evidence.
His testimony may decide Mrs. Mohr's
fate. Georgo Rooks, brother-in-law of
Miss nurger, and the first to mention
Mrs. Mohr In connection with the mur
der, Is to bo another Important State's
witness. Both nre likely to testify next
week.

contend that the company Is conducted
nlong extravagant lines. In reply to this
the chief nsscrtcd that the fire company
has put the borough Jail, borough hall nnd
tho llrchouse under ono roof. Regard
ing the financial part, he declared that
the comprny bought, for $1500. the lot on
which tho combined municipal building
stands. Lnlcr he declnrcd tho borough
bought It from tho company. The com
pnny then npplled this $1500. he snld, to
the cost of the new $u30u motortruck.
Somo of the residents of Mlllbourne
don't npprcclnto the fact that the Mlll
bourne Volunteer Compnny No. 1 has
brought about a 10 per cent, decrease In
Insurance rates without any Increase In
taxes, according to the chief. Others
clnlm that the rate was Just ns cheap be
fore the new motortruck was bought.
It wns learned that you can't be a
fireman Immediately lir Mlllbourne. You
must go through u regular course nnd
show the proper spirit. The men arc
regularly trained by two Mlllhotirnlnus,
who attend tho flro school of this city nt
7th nnd Norrls streets.
All of tho firemen havo paid their dues
until 1010, which Indicates, says the chief,
what the spirit Is. llcpllng to tho
criticism In regard to the pui chase of
the $3300 motortruck, the chief snld: "The
old hnnd hose cort wns so heavy to pull
that the men wero nil In by tho time they
reached a fire nnd had no energy left
to light the flames."
The Internal criticism In Mlllbourne Is
uncalled for, say the flrcmen, ns Mlll
bourno has more than 50 llremnn for Its
101 houses or n flrcmnn for every two
houses, and two cops to boot.
Those whose views differ from thoso of
tho firemen say they see no reason for
having a lingo O.'.-foot Iron tower to hold
the tiro bell tn warn 100 residents, In
fact, some of the residents believe that
tho lire bell would work Just ns well If
placed on top the llrchouse. The com
pany will havo A recaption tonight to
celebrate tho opening of tho now building.
