MIR. and Mrs. ONeiI the Only Names n ns~n
Thought to BE nm Accident.

4 man and woman, probably Mr..
and Mrs. O'Nel, died by gas asphyxiation
Saturday night in a rooming house at 3l3
West Fourth street. II was probably an
accident curious feature is that an
other gaslight was burning in the room
when the bodies were found.
The woman came to- the house on Saturday
afternoon and rented a suite Of furnished
rooms She gave her name as Viola O'Neil,
and said that she and her husband lived
in New York, but had been out Of town
all summer. They'd given up their house,
sent their children away for a time and
we're going TO lodge at sl3 until they de-
cided what to do. Her husband, she said,
was a wharhnger
She paid a weeks rent in advance, and
went out, returning at 10 O'Clock. The
housemaid lot her in and went with he
70 the room. where she lit a gas Jet on the
chandelier for the new lodger. Mrs. O'Neil
said hat her husband would come in later
This being in old Greenwich Village,
the household retired early, slept late and
went to church A little after noon, when
they all came back. every one smelled gas
II was traced up to the door OF the new
dodgers. The land lady tried the door
and found 1t unlocked. A lodger rushed In,
was slightly open and threw up the window
sash.
Mrs. O'Nell was in bed with a man 20
wears old. His clothes were those Of a
iaborer and his hands we're oallo,sed.
The gas jet which the maid had lighted
was burning beside the get which had
done the work. All the windows were
closed.
There was nothing about the mans
clothes to establish his identity. The
bodies were taken to the Morgue to await
further Identification.
From the fact that the door was un-
looked, that one gas jet was burning and
that the Jet was open only little way,
Coroner jackson made up his mind that
1t was a plain case Of accident

ADLER on PEACE OBSTACLES.
Says The Hague Tribunal Is Inen ectiNe
Needs Men OF High Ethics.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 18.-Before an au-
dence including many members OF the
International Peace Congress, at meeting
held under the auspices of the Ethical
Culture Society DR.. Felix Adler, the New
York ethical reformer, spoke to-day on
THE Real Obstacles to International Peace. y
DIR. Adler said that while the results Of
the International Peace Congress had been
gratifying, it was nevertheless true that
should occasion arise America would be
up in arms at once, as Russia and Japan are
now. The Gar, he said, was no doubt
sincere in his peace intentions. DR.. Adler
also said President Roosevelt recently said
in book that mo triumph of peace is quite
equal to that OF war.
"The evolution OF mankind cannot OBJ
lterate war without guidance" he said.
War can only be prevented by the moral
ethics OF the individual. and not on a whole
sale scale. The Hague Tribunal, as consti-
tuted. cannot enforce its decisions OF bind
contending parties. because its members
are not disinterested. 1t needs men of
high ethics, free OF political or diplomatic
bias, 10 make it's decisions fair and effective.
1t would not be fair to ask Japan to submit
to the court in the pending war. As long
az wholesale murder and robbery are con-
doned by nations il can hardly be expe, ted
that the individual be restrained when
aroused
