No One Here Acquainted With Woman Who Fell from Street Car in
 Syracuse, New York.

No information has been obtained py the police department in regard to the identity of Madeline Banks, white woman who fell from a street car in Syracuse, N. Y, and was rendered un- conscious. She was registered at one of the hotels there as being from Bir- mingham, but no one here seems to know who she is.
 A second telegram has been received from Syracuse stating that the woman was lying in the hospital with fractur- ed skull, and that she >had regained con- sciousness for only a few minutes since the accident two days ago. During these few minutes of consciousness she said that she was a writer and had lived in Birmingham. She stated that she had written many magazine stories, and they had been published
 The telegram stated that the woman's condition was very serious, and that she was not expected to live. No one has reported to the office of Chief Wier any thing about a woman by that name, and 1t is supposed she is unknown here
