Signals Aro Misunderstood According to witnesses of the col lision at Nineteenth and Norris streets, botii cars had stopped at the intersec tion. In starting the motonnen are said to have misunderstood each other's signals und the cars collided in con sequence. Passengers on the llridcsburg car escaped a more serious accident by the matter ot a lew seconds. The car was running north, jammed to the doors at front and back v,ith men riding to their work in Richmond mills. Trolley and railroad tracks ruu parallel on Richmond street. On the west side of the street is a freight yard, with a spur of the railroad track cross ing over the trolley track from the belt line lailroad. A string of thirty steel cars, drawn hy two engines, was ruuning slowly north on Richmond street,, puffing up the slight grade, the engines whistliug loudly because of the fog which hung oer mo river early tins moruing. Freight Breaks in Middlo When tiie trolley car was only a few feet from the crossover switch, the lone frieght broke in the middle, und five 'cars shot off the track, tearing up the switcli ami running in the path ot the trolley car. Had the trolley been a few seconds earlier, it would have'" been struck fairly in the middle. As it happened, one of tiie freight cars side wiped it. lore it from the ti ticks and dragged it along. Pussengers saw the danger nnd surged toward the exits. A little more and the trolley car would have been turned over on its side. Men struggled to reach the doors. Many ot them smashed win dows and dropped to the street.- The .five ruuawuy cars continued on their way. One broke loose, dashed on the sidewalk and broke a telegraph pole. The heavy pole stove in a shack nearby in falling.

Drumheller, of Selinrgrovc, Pa., who is in the Jefferson Hospital as a result of an nttack of uphasia. Mr. Drumheller indicated yesterday by facial expressions that he knew rela tives who called to see him.

HARRY WARDMAN ELMKRDYES luUnt Uanaot W ' i NAVY SUBMARINE OFFICERS STUD Y GERMAN CRAFT HERE Arc Conducting Series of Tests to Get Secret of Wonderful Efficiency Developed by Enemy's Undersea Cruisers Uncle Sam has no patriotic prejudices that may react to his disadvantage and is always willing to lenrn from a skilled workman, bo lie friend or foe. At present naval submarine officers, under the supervision of the bureau of steam engineering of the Navy Depart ment, are conducting a thorough in quiry and an exhaustive series of tests om the Diesel engines that were used by the Germans to propel their sub marines. The tests arc being conducted at the Philadelphia Navy Yard on the engines that were formerly in the gigantic Gcr mnn undersea cruiser U-C 117. This vessel was equipped both with torpedo tubes for direct offensive oper ation and with mine-laying equipment. Large enough for a transatlantic cruise nnd return, she is believed to be the. ship that laid the mines off New York, one of which sunk the American cruiser San Diego in July, 1018. Since last summer men at the navy vnrd submarine base have been busy dis mantling the ship. A large part of her deck had to be cut away to get the cumbersome engines and electric motors out on the dock. Motors Wcro Overhauled They were taken to the machinery divisions nnd thoroughly inspected and overhauled. After all the abuse and ttear the engines have hud since the nst Hun engineer climbed out of the hip's hatch, micrometric measure ments, to the thousandth of an inch, Tiled to disclose any appreciable wear r deterioration. The engines are of the four-cycle Diesel type, burning icavy fuel oil. injected into the cylinders at a high compression. They were built by the Machinenfabric Augsburg-Nurn-burg, acknowledged among the most successful builders of marine Diesel enJ gines in the world. "There is every evidence of alow, nainstakinsr CS'11. finish and careful work- uinnship, not only on tho engines, but in every part of these ships." declared Lieutenant: Commander II. Gibson, commander of the submarine base at the navy yard, under whoso supervi sion the U-117 is beiug dismantled. "Wheh one considers that there is vir tually no brass, copper or rubber used in their construction, their substitutes and resourses in overcoming the ravages of salt water, were remarkable and ad mirable."

Knglno Being Tested After the overhauling of the U-117's engines, one of them was reassembled nnd the tests arc being made with it. The submarine's motors, which were used to propel the ship while sub merged, are coupled to the shaft and will be used to manufacture the "load" SHOPS " MEISKIEIHEH0EJ2 lr?lli?

HI MSI ysEs JANUARY 21, 1920 CHARITY PROBLEM BALKS COMMISSION New Amendment to Separate Gifts for Poor and Educa tion to Bo Offered M'CORMICK PLAN IS BEATEN By a Staff Corrapondmt Harrishurg, Jan. 21. Methods of distributing stnte aid to charitable in stitutions continue to be the live topic of discussion by the commission on con stitutional revision and amendment. So far the commission has expended more time on tho charity question than on any other subject, and it still lias to provide a solution of the problem. Another nmendment will be offered to day, sponsored by Prof. Francis Newton-Thorpe, of Pittsburgh', to separate charitable appropriations from appro priations to educational institutions. It will be offered as a compromise. but is sure to meet with opposition from i miner .luugc .lames uny vionion una Vance C. McCormick, who have de clared in favor of direct state control of all institutions receiving state grants. Deat McCormick Plan The McCormick amendment to abolish appropriations for institutions not under state control after 1031 and to provide for a gradually diminishing scale up to that time was defeated yesterday after a lengthy defense of the measure hy Judge Gordon. He declared charitable institutions should be maiptained and conducted the same as the public school system, and charged that many hospitals receiving state aid cater to the rich rather than to the needy. Judge Gordon read from the report of tho state board of charities to show that these institutions received the bulk of their maintenance from stale appro priations and pnid patients. Iu summing up his contention that. nospiuis conducted on tnc same oasis as the public schools would render more efficient service to the poor, Judge Gor don said "the best hospital in Phila delphia is in the county almshouse. maintained aud conducted by the county." Would Go to Almsliouso "If G5d were to smite me with dis ease this evening and it was necessary for me to go to a, hospital, I would go to tho oue in the nlmshouse." Mrs. John O. Miller. Pittsburgh, sup ported the McCormick resolution with the declaration that u survey und more eoual distribution of state funds was needed. Mr. McCormick declared that state appropriations cooked off real charity.5' Should the Thorpe resolution meet defeat today the commission will go ,back to the original recommendation, UWHU MJ UlUllV ,.. -J VlIl., w make service not dependent upou "sec tarian or denominational influence" the prime factor in determining charitable appropriations.
