AT LEAST 18 PEOPLE MEET DEATH IN WRECK (Continued from Page One)

whose resignation followed a series of attacks on the administration of the road which were augmented by a number of fatal wrecks. At the offices of the New Haven road here it was stated that the list of dead would not exceed fifteen in the wreck. Early estimates greatly exceeded this. Assistance Was Prompt. Physicians and nurses were rushed from Meriden, Hartford and from this city. All the available ambulances were rushed from this city to the scene of the wreck. It was decided to send the injured in the wreck by trolley to this city. The first car load arrived at 9 o'clock. The scene of the wreck is at Talford crossing, a mile from the nearest station or telephone, and in a sparsely settled section. Engineer Saves Himself. A. B. Miller, of North Haven, was engineer on train No. 95, which crashed into the train ahead. He jumped and saved himself. He was interviewed by Coroner's Physician Goodrich shortly after the wreck, and said: "Owing to the fog it was impossible to read the Banjo signals along the line of the road without running very close to them. We came to the banjo signal a mile north of the North Haven station. It was set against us. I immediately applied the emergency break but the crash came before I could get action on the brake. There was absolutely no chance to stop." L. H. Fowler, conductor of No. 95, also escaped uninjured. He told Dr. Goodrich that Engineer Miller's statement was correct so far as he was able to observe. He said that there was absolutely no chance to see but a few feet ahead, owing to the fog.

A SURVIVOR'S STORY. HARTFORD, Conn., Sept. 2. Joseph W. Boardman of East Hartford, who is now conducting a hotel at Savin Rock, Conn., was one of the first to arrive from the scene of the wreck at Talford. A correspondent for the International News Service talked with him on the telephone. Mr. Boardman said the scene at the wreck was one of horror. The first Bection of the White Mountain express crashed into the rear end of the Bar Harbor express and ploughed through the cars turning them into a mass of splinters and twisted steel. Some seven or eight of the killed were hurled into a melon patch beside the spot where the train stopped. Mr. Boardman and a Mr. DeMoar helped to bring these bodies to the improvised morgue. There were two other bodies, on top of the mammoth superheated engine of the heavily laden White Mountain express and Mr. Boardman expressed the belief that ten or more were under the engine which stood panting in a mass of splintered wood and twisted steel as though surveying the damage it "wrought.

DON'T LET BABY SUFFER WITH ECZEMA AND SKIN ERUPTIONS. Babies need a perfect skin-covering. Skin eruptions cause them not only intense suffering, but hinder their growth. Dr. Hobson's Eczema Ointment can be relied on for relief and permanent cure of suffering babies whose skin eruptions have made their life miserable. "Our baby was afflicted with breaking out of the skin all over the face and scalp. Doctors and skin specialists failed to help. We tried Dr. Hobson's Eczema Ointment and were overjoyed to see baby completely cured before one box was used" writes Mrs. Strubler, Dubuque, Iowa. All druggists, or by mail, 50c.

(National News Association) SHERBROOKE, Quebec, Sept. 2 Just before the hour set for argument before Judge Hutchinson in Constable Bourdeau's habeas corpus proceed

ing in the Thaw case today, sensational reports became current that representatives of Duchess county. New York, had planned to kidnap Harry Thaw. Judge Hutchinson announced that he probably would not deliver an opinion on the habeas corpus proceedings until late this afternoon or Wednesday. He also announced that he would hear arguments in chambers, which was a keen disappointment to the hundreds of persons who stormed the court house. The plot to carry Thaw back to New York in a high-powered touring car, relayed along the road, was reported to be in the hands of Captain John Lanyon, the famous head of the private detective agency, who came here with former District Attorney Jerome of New York. Lanyon had credentials of being officially appointed to represent the office of the district attorney of Duchess county, and carries a commission as a keeper in Matteawan asylum. The leaking out of the kidnaping report caused out-of-town newspaper correspondents to engage automobiles

to follow the kidnapers if the daring plan was attempted.

Mother of Eighteen Children. "I am the mother of eighteen children and have the praise of doing more work than any young woman in my town," writes Mrs. C. J. Martin, Boone Mill, Va. "I suffered for five years with stomach trouble and could not eat as much as a biscuit without suffering. I have taken three bottles of Chamberlain's Tablets and am now a well woman and weigh 168 pounds. I can eat anything I want to, and as much as I want and feel better than I have at any time in ten years. I refer to any one in Boone Mill or vicinity and they will vouch for what I say."

Wayne county is far behind other counties in Indiana in the building of

good roads according to County Com- ; missioner Albert Anderson, who stated i today that the roads being built here ' are not to be compared with those 'around Cincinnati. The county comi missioners returned Saturday after- , noon from Ohio after visiting sev- ' eral parts of the state for the puri pose of making an investigation of the 1 condition of" roads there. j I The concrete road proposition. j which is to be tried out here, will not prove satisfactory, Mr. Anderson believes. The concrete and cement roads are equally as poor as the maj cadam, the commissioners reported.

The most satisfactory roads, Mr. Anderson believes, is the macadam roads covered with tarvia, as the National Road west of the city within the corporation was treated. New road specifications may be brought up after a consultation has been held between the surveyor and the commissioners. All of the commissioners believe the three mile road law, under which most of the roads in the county have been built recently is a poor one and imposes a hardship upon many people. A plan is being considered by the commissioners which may result in the law being declared unconstitutional. If a petition is rejected the matter must be decided by the courts and the commissioners believe the

I law can be set aside in this way. If the law was declared unconstitutional the residents of the rural districts I would be compelled to pay all of the ! improvements on highways rather ; than receive assistance from the city taxpayers.,

Keeping the Body in Repair Nature intended that the body should do its oirn repairing and it would do so were it not for thr fact that most of us lice other than a natural life. Nature didn't intend that we should wear corsets, tight collars or shoes, nor live in badly ventilated and draughty houses, nor eat and drink botes of the things that we do. nor ride in street cars when t should walk.
