They have been sinking considerably each year and the cost of upkeep has been increasing so rapidly that engineers decided that it would be cheaper to raise the tracks than to meet the increasing cost of upkeep.

DRULEY INJURED STEPPING FROM MOVING AUTO

Emmet Druley, 35, a well-known resident of Boston, is at Reid hospital today critically injured as a result of an automobile accident Sunday 'on South Tenth street, this city. He suffered a concussion of the brain and It is- believed his skull was fractured. Two weeks ago the father of the young man, Edward Druley, died at his home in Boston,, and eighteen months ago Clarence Druley, a brother, was killed by a team of horses which had become frightened. Emmet Druley has a wife and three children. Druley Loses Balance He came to Richmond yesterday in an automobile driven by Dr. J. C. Clawson, of Boston. On South Tenth street a horse became frightened and Druley started to get out of the moving automobile with the Intention of seizing the frightened animal by the bridle. As he did so he lost his balance and fell headlong to the street. He was hurried to Reid hospital in an unconscious condition. Today it as reported that there was very little change in Druley's condition. It is understood there is still a slight-chance for Druley's recovery. He has been bleeding from the ears considerably. Yesterday afternoon an automobile being driven south on South Eighth street, driver unknown, struck the rear wheel of a buggy at South B street, knocking off the buggy tire and sending it spinning down the street. The rig was not damaged otherwise and the man, woman and child in the buggy were uninjured. GREEK TRADING SHIPS PASS TO VENIZELOS LONDON. Oct. 9. The whole Greek fleet has passed over to the national movement headed by Ex-Premier Venizelos, according to a Central News dispatch from Athens. Greek ship owners have placed thirteen steamers at Venizelos' disposal for the transport of volunteers to Salonlki. It is believed that the above dispatch refers to the Greek merchant fleet, not to the navy. SURVIVORS TELL Continued From Page One. lives were lost, but the crew of the Kingston still was missing. The German war submarine which Brought the war to the doorway of the United States is believed to be the U-53, which visited Newport Saturday. Survivors of the Stephano, who arrived here on board the Ericson, said that the ship was warned and the passengers and crew given a chance to take to the boats. German Beamen then went on board and opened her sea cocks. She was neither torpedoed nor shelled. Tries to Prevent Break This, it Is believed here, indicated that the submarine commander was taking precautions to prevent a break with the United States over the latest outbreak of submarine warring. The Ericson was followed by the United States ship Drayton. She had on board the master of the West Point. He was taken to the British cruiser Birmingham in a launch. He refused to make a statement until he could confer with the owners of his ship. Reports that nine ships were attacked and that three submarines were engaged Instead of one were contained in a wireless dispatch from the Nantucket station picked up by the Ericson. Destroyer Plays Part An important part was played throughout by this destroyer. She was in plain view of the attack upon the Stephano. Officers said that the British passenger ship was halted by three shots fired across her bow by the submarine. The Stephano carried seventy-three passengers, many of them citizens of the United States. One of the passengers was Charles T. Evans of Germantown, Pa. He was responsible for the statement that the Stehano had been sunk by filling her hold with water. "Most of the passengers were at dinner when the vessel was fired on," Mr. Evans said. "They were given time to put on heavy wraps after a steward had passed among them tell- j ing them that the captain had given orders to lower the life boats. "We did not know then that a submarine was near nor why we were to leave the ship. Sea Was Very Calm "The sea and weather were calm and the officers acted very quietly so that there was very little confusion on board "My wife and I went to our room and Dut on our coats and went on deck. "One of the sailors told us we had better put on life preservers. Neither my wife or myself saw any submarine. "In the meantime we were assigned to places in a lifeboat which was quickly lowered. We had gone about a mile and a half in this boat when we were picked up by the United States naval boat. Lose All Baggage. "Mrs. Evans and myself had been to St. Anthony, N. F., and were on our way home. We lost all our baggage." Mrs. Marion Cutter of Brooklyn said that the Stephano was held up about 6 o'clock. "We had just seated ourselves when a shot was fired across the ship's bows," she said. "Naturally we were startled. We were told to leave the room as quickly as possible and as we were doing so two more shots were fired. There was amazement but no disorder. The captain told us that we were . to get into the lifeboats, all of which were quickly lowered. Darkness had fallen by this time and we did not see the ship again." Mrs. Elsie French Vanderbilt, Mrs. R. Livingston Beeckman and other members of the millionaire colony here had automobiles at the pier to

give aid to the survivors. Mrs. Cutter was one of those assisted by Mrs. Vanderbilt. The chef of the Stephano, A. C. Tikkel. of New York, said that the captain had been warned by a wireless message at noon that a German submarine was In the neighborhood. "I was working in the kitchen when I heard the first shot about 5:45 o'clock," said Tikkel. "We had just started to serve dinner. Stewards came running down, saying a shell had struck the water about five yards from the ship. Captain Smith immediately stopped the vessel and sent down word we should all be prepared to leave at once. Women and children were placed in the boats first and all made off. I distinctly saw the submarine. As we approached the Ericson I saw her decks cleared for action and we wondered if she were going to open fore on the German boat Taken Aboard Ericson. "We were all taken on board the Ericson. I was standing on the deck watching the submarine when her conning tower opened up and four men appeared. In some mysterious way the side of the submarine seemed to open and a small boat appeared as

if by magic. It started for the Stephano just as the last lifeboat left the ship. ' "Captain Smith was the last man to leave his ship. He was only 200 yards away when the German seamen boarded the vessel. They scurried about on the decks for a while, and then went below. Five minutes later they reappeared and Immediately the Stephano began to settle." Leo Burton, fourth engineer, and John Kavanaugh, third engineer, of the Stephano, corroborated Tikkel's story. There were ten children among the refugees on the Ericson, one of them an infant in arms. BERNSTORFF TO Continued From Page One. coast as she was in sinking enemy ships in the waters of the British Isles so long as the doctrines of visitation and search are observed. But the i danger, it is pointed out, is that an American vessel or citizen may yet fall victim in disregard of the limitations of international law. This danger is very plain, officials say. All of the information reaching here is being sent immediately to the president at Shadow Lawn. Comprehensive reports from Admiral Knight, commandant at Newport, dealing with the sinkings to date, are along the lines covered by the press dispatches. He says that every possible effort is being made to rescue the passengers and crews of all vessels that fall victims. Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador, is at Shadow Lawn today. The ostensible reason for his visit to President Wilson is to present an autographed letter from the Kaiser dealing with the Polish relief question. But there Is no doubt here that the president will make it plain that the bringing of submarine warfare by Germany right to the very doors of the United States is more than unwelcome. Action Is Unfriendly. There is little doubt in the minds of officials here that the president will make it plain that while such action may be 6trictly legal so far as the written law. is concerned it is very close to unfriendly when judged by the complications that may arise. Officials at the British embassy refused to make a statement regarding Wife Tells of Relief Tanlac Gave Husband FORTWAYNE, Ind., Oct. 9. Among the many statements given by people of Fort Wayne in praise of Tanlac, the Master Medicine, none is more interesting than that offered on April 10 by Mrs. Katie Bixler, of 1911 Sinclair street, this city. She told of relief her husband, a contracting laborer, gained through the new medicine's use. "Mr. Bixler suffered from stomach trouble in the form of Indigestion," Mrs. Bixler said. "For ten or twelve years he had been bothered. He said it seemed that there was a heavy weight In his stomach all the tame. Accumulations of gas in his stomach were very annoying and caused him to belch often. He hardly ever was able to eat. Nearly always after eating breakfast he would become sick and wculd be unable to-keep the food on his stomach. He'd go to bed at night without attempting to eat supper. At night he'd groan continually and just toss and roll about the bed. His kidneys also bothered him. He said he had pains in his back. "I really hail faint hopes of my hus band ever getting relief but I bought him a bottle of Tanlac and asked him to try it. His improvement has been steady since taking about a bottle and a half of the medicine. The accumulations of gass in his stomach are about gone now and the belching has about ceased. The heavy weight in his stomach that formerly annoyed him is entirely gone. He sleeps soundly and peacefully all through the night now and in the mornings he feels rested. The pains in his back also have disappeared. "My husband was greatly surprised and also delighted when Tanlac helped him so much for he had tried everything and has lost his faith in medicines." "The case of Mr, Bixler Is similar to hundreds of others," said the Tanlac Man. "It is surprising how quickly and how thoroughly Tanlac relieves people who suffer from stomach, liver or kidney trouble, affections of the mucus membranes or any of the symptoms thereof, nch as belching and bloating, pains in the stomach, lack of appetite, pains in the back, tired feeling and the like." Tanlac is now being introduced in streets store of Clem Thistlethwaite where a special Tanlac representative is explaining the new medicine to the public daily, and also may be obtained at Thistlethwaite's other stores.

what actidn has been taken to protest entente shipping from this menace. It is understood in diplomatic circles here that a flotilla of destroyers and several fast cruisers have been sent from the British naval base at St John's and Bermuda to patrol the American coast These vessels will try to locate the 6-53 and her escorts it being accepted that there are at least two and perhaps more German submarines operating in American waters and either sink them or start them back toward their home bases. Would Bar Submarines. The British and French governments, their officials here say, are to press action to have the United States make a rule that German submarines will hereafter be excluded from American ports. Officials who should know, say very emphatically that there is not the slightest chance that such action will be taken. So far as now is known, these submarines are conducting cruiser warfare in the form of a commerce raid. That they have a legitimate right to do so is admitted. And President Wilson has said at least a half dozen times since the war started that there would "be no changes in the rules of the game while the game is in progress." Although undoubtedly he will urge Count von Bernstorff, as a matter of judgment, to recommend that these submarines be withdrawn he is not expected to consent to interference with what is considered here as an absolute legal right. Invented in America. Tn addition, the submarine is distinctly an American invention, and it is not to be expected that an American president if he consulted with the naval chiefs who know the game, would take any steps which might in
