Jailed For Non Support
Eli Randler, of East Petersburg, was

to pay a court order to his wife.

Owner Refuses
$5,000 for
His 1910 Ford Touring Car

Any of you chaps who by chance
may be the owner of an old old,
“chariot” or automobile, will welcome
i sews that Henry Ford recently of-
AWG $5000 for an old Ford.
A crowd of Mount Joy folks were
out autong on the concrete highway,
above Harrisburg, Sunday. They were
enjoying a stop at a refreshment stand
when an additional car stopped. It
was one of the kind that would at-
tract attention anywhere.
This particular car was a 1910 Model
Ford Touring. It had four straight
fenders, those old brass oil lights front
and rear, large rubber bulb horn, etc.
It looked like new. There wasn’t a
mark on the paint and all the brass
parts were spotlessly polished. The
floor was covered with brussels rugs
and the entire car was in the same
condition in appearance as the day it
left the Ford plant.
The owner was a farmer and his
wife and children took as much pride
in the car as he did. Upon being in-
terviewed by one of our local folks, he
said that recently Henry Ford offered
him $5,000 cash and a new Ford tour-
ing in exchange or a new Lincoln
touring car on an even swap.
The old gent, who saw at least
seventy-five summers, said he refused
both offers because he actually thought
he could get a trifle more for it from
Mr. Ford.

A preliminary investigation into the
wreck of a crack Pennsylvania Rail-
road express train at Conewago Sat-
urday in which twa were hilled, failed
to fix definitely the responsibility for
the accident. It did, however, nar-
row the possible causes of the wreck
to two and cut the number of possible
responsible people to three.
One of these urmamed men will be
singled out as the man who threw the
switch which sent the train hurling
through space while traveling at an
eighty mile an hour clip, killed two
men and did damage estimated at from
$20,000 to $25,000.
The dead were: Peter McCormick,


42, New York City, engineer of the
wrecked train
Everett W Walker, of New Cumber-
land, Pa., fireman.
W. T. Bain, 45, East Pittsburgh, hiker
was killed by a hit and run driver go-
ing to the scene of the wreck.
Officials at Scene
A group of railroad officials, head-
ed by J. T. Phalen, superintendent of
the Philadelphia Division of the road,
assembled at the scene of the railroad
accident soon after it occurred Satur-
day morning. Throughout the day they
worked to unravel the tangled trail of
evidence.
At the same time an independent in-
Express Train Ran Into Open
Switch at Conewago; 2 Dead
Nine Cars & Engine Rolled Down Embankment
vestigation was started by Dr. Frank
S. Miller, deputy coroner, of Eliza-
bethtown. This investigation had
reached a stage where the deputy
coroner was willing to issue a certi-
ficate of accidental death in the case
of McCormick.
Two Theories
Only two possible theories for the
wreck are being considered. It is
known that the heavy movement of
National Guardsmen into Mount Gret-
na had caused the railroad to place
switch tenders at the junction of the
main line and the branch which was
formerly the Cornwall and Lebanon

Susquehanna Inn Robbed
A cash register, a slot machine and

covered the theft when he returned to

Death Toll in
Accidents Mounts
TOTAL OF CRASHES DROPS BUT
FATALITIES SHOW A DECIDED

Automobile fatalities in Pennsyl-

the total number of accidents report-

With 3808 accidents, 170 fatalities
