BLAME FOR P. It. It. WRECK
PUT ON CONGESTED TRAFFIC
Public Service Commission Makes
Report on Accident
(4IAnniSBUnG, March 14. In his for
mal report to tho Public Service Commis
sion on the causo of the wreck of tho
Pennsylvania Limited on thoiMnln Lino
near' Port Ilnyal March 9, Investigator
John P. Dohoncy attributes tho accident
mainly to the congested condition of tho
railroad at this time, duo to storngo of
thousands of cars of freight that cannot
be moved. Tho wreck followed the buck
ling of freight cars, when two wooden
cars were crushed between the pressure
of steel enrs and thrown out over tho
track on which the passenger train was
approaching.
"Tho present freight condition, being
unusual, should require additional precau
tion," says Mr. Dohoney; "and If the
rules of safety nro to bo adhered to, the
pressure of ono heavy train against an
other ought to bo followed by a prompt
and thorough Inspection to determine
whether serious results havo accompanied
tho movement."

and Got a Scare
It was only a tycos sphygmomanometer.
Twenty giant cops of tho 20th and

sigh of relief when they made the dis
covery today, after they had fished a
package out of a tub of water in which
theV had lpft t in Knnk nVKp Yilp-ht- Thau

Policeman Dolan found a small oblong
package placed near some steps ut 15th
itreet and Susquehanna avenue, about
midnight. It looked suspicious. lie walked
around It three times and then cautiously
pushed It Into the street. From a. nearby
house he got a bucket of water and
'"dosed" the object. Ho stood behind a
tree till he was sure nothing was going
to happen. Then he picked up the "bomb."
H was heavy and he thought he could
hear it ticking.
, HI heart almost stopped as he ran
with the "Infernal machine" at arm's
lngth, to the station.
"To the bathtub with it," roared the
aetall of police as the whlte-facell Dolan
entered with his "prUe." The detail
scrambled for cover.
When the package was opened this
morning with all due precaution, It was
found to be a complex medical Instrument

Whether a convicted husband-killer shall
break North Carolina's long rceoid of nn
death penalty for women will bn decided
Monday, when Governor i 'ralg will henr ap
peals for clemency for Jlrs. Ida Ball War
ren. Unless ho grnnts mercy, Mrs. Warren
and Samuel Crlsty, with whom sho once
lived nn his wife, will die In tho electric
chair March .11 for tho murder of James
G. Warren.
Governor Craig refuses to gle tho
slightest Intimation whether tho appe'als
for mercy by women's clubs, or tho State
Supremo Court's opinion of the murder
ns tho most brutal which cvor came to
Its notice, has most Influenced him.
Mrs. AVarrcn'K own story Is that sho
chloroformed her husband whllo lio slept
nnd that Crlsty strangled him. Then
CrLsty nnd Mrs. AVnrren's stm-ln-Iaw mu
tilated tho dead man's bead, so it could
not bo recognized, and burled It In a
creek. It was found. When Mrs. Warren
nnd Crlsty saw It In a morguo they de
clared thoy could not Identify It. Hut
Warren's family did, later, and tho trial
resulted.
Appeals for Mrs. Warren's life havo

The man at the club who enjoys his soup, more often than he knows is
eating Franco-American Soup. The more exclusive the club, the more likely
is this to be the case. The more sensitive the palate, the more grateful are
the richness and delicacy of these soups.
Every stage in the making of Franco-American Soups is under the direct,
personal supervision of Monsieur Biardot who has "dwelt in the houses of
kings and of lords." The product of each day's work in our kitchens is
tailed by M. Biardot and must receive his approval before it can be placed on
sale. This rule is rigid and inflexible. It goes a long way toward explaining
what we mean when we say: Franco-American Soups are the personal, indi
vidual "creations" of the artist-chef, and as such cannot be duplicated.
