IN AUTO ACCIDENT.
Prominent New Britain People Have
 Narrow Escape.

Brookfield, Mass, May 17.--An auto- mobile, Connecticut register, 1890, in which were five people, was run into a ditch in Brookfeld to-day and turned bottom up. The owner of the machine was Philip Corbin, of New Britain, Conn, president of the American cor poration, president of the F. & F. Cor bin company, of New Britain, and pres ident of the Corbin Automobile com- pany. In the machine with MT. Corbin, who is about eighty years old, were his wife, his granddaughter, Miss Minnie Corbin, of Cottage City; a nurse, Miss Laura Timleck, and a chauffeur, Wal ter Boyington, both of New Britain.
 Going down a steep grade the brakes failed to work and the chauffeur turn ed the machine, which was going at great speed, into a ditch. He was hurl- ed through a plate glass protector flf- teen feet and was badly cut about the face.
 Mrs. Corbin and Miss Timleck were pinned under the overturned machine. MT. Corbin was thrown upon his wife. His face was cut by glass and all three were badly bruised and shaken up. Miss Corbin jumped and was not hurt.

Hartford, May 17.-In addition to the bill, reported favorably to-day by the judiciary committee, repeating the law regarding delinquent administrators under which the Atwood probate suits were brought. the Judiciary committee will report, within a day or two proba- bly,, plan for refmbrrsing Preston w.

PENN. R. R. NOT BLAMED.
Verdict of the Coroner's Jury on the
 South Harrisburg Wreck.

Harrisburg, Pa., May 17.-The coro- ners jury this afternoon returned a verdict exonerating the Pennsylvania Railroad company from any blame for the South Harrisburg disaster last Thursday, in which twenty-two lives were lost and more than 100 persons were injured.
 The jury finds that the cause of the accident was the result of applying the air brakes to the freight train in order to stop it so that it would not collide with shifting engine. "The shifting crew, with it's train, was properly on the track" the verdict says, land, so far as the jury can learn, was guilty of no negligence"
 The jury finds that "by reason of ap- plying the air brake on the freight train two cars of the said train, one of which contained 10000 pounds of blasting powder, were thrown on the west-bound track just as the Cleveland and Cin- cinnati express was going westward."'
 The jury says that the freight train was properly equipped with air brakes, and that no human agency could have stopped the passenger cars from run ming into the wreck. A..+

BAD FIRE IN HARTFORD.
Started by Explosion of Chemicals in q Photographers.

Hartford, May 17.--An explosion of chemicals in the Taylor photograph studio at the top of the Connecticut River Banking company's building at the corner of Main and Pearl streets, caused a fire this afternoon which to- gether with the damage done by water will inf1ict a loss of many thousands of dollars. Unofficial estimates place the damage at from $20,00O to $25,o0O. No one was injured by the explosion.
 The fire started at o'clock when there was burst of flame through the glass top of the studio. The noise of the explosion, however, was inaudible from the street Yesterday the studio added $40 worth of chemicals to its equipment, and 1t is supposed that spontaneous combustion in these chem icals caused the fire. The entire upper par of the building was gutted, and the floors beneath were flooded. The banking rooms on the first floor were ruined. These rooms had just been re- modelled at cost Of $7,00O, and the bank occupied them only last Monday for the first time after repairs were completed. During the frea lot of val uable papers were removed from the bank to another bank, while other doc uments were placed in the fireproof safe 5stS s3

STRICKEN ON RoSTRUM.
Sudden Death of Dr. Cushing at Bap- 'f tist Convention.

St. Louis, May 17.--O Organization of a permanent body to be known as the General Convention of Baptists of North America was perfected to-day. After the business incident to the or ganization of the general convention had been concluded Rev. Call Barnes, of Worcester, Mass, in an address on "The Unity of the Baptist Mission" de- clared himself in favor of infant bap- tism, which is opposed by the Baptist teaching.
 Just as the Baptist convention was about to adjourn to-day Dr. Gushing, president of the Baptist university at Rangoon, India, was stricken while oc- cupying a seat on the rosturm and fell dying to the floor. While waiting for the arrival of an ambulance 8 prayer was offered for Dr. Cushing. Before the arrival of medical assistance Dr. Cushing died.

A STUDY FOR ALIENTsTs. 4
Remarkable Psychological Problem
 Presented at Murder Trial.

Someryille, N. J, May 17.-A renarka- ble psychological problem was present. ed for the study of the many alenists in court to-day when the trial of George Wood for the murder of George Williams, the grocer of Watching, was resumed. Wood, who according to his counsel, is the victim of a double per- sonality, in one phase of which he is under the influence of purely imagin- ary persons, variously described by Wood as .'Wolf," Mack and "a little black man," took the stand in his own defense.
 Throughout the long examination of his counsel and the vigorous cross-ex- animation of the prosecutor, Wood pre- served a perfectly calm demeanor and replied to all questions promptly and straightforwardly, and in a fashion logically consistent with his declared belief that he Is possessed of "familiars" whose mandates he is irresistibly com- pelled to obey, and that of his actions when under their influence he retains no recollections on regaining his nor- mai identity.

MARX PAYS DEATH PENALTY
AGED FARMER HANGED AT STATE
 PRISON

Moose Adjusted shortly After Midnight
 Pronounced Dead in Three Minutes
 Walked to the scaffold Without a
 FlincI--Oniy sound from Him a
 Groan as the Moose Is Placed About
 His Neck.
 Hartford, May 1S.--For one of the most horrible murders ever brought to light in this state, Gershon Marx, the seyenty-three-y year-old farmer of Col chester, was executed this morning in the execution chamber at the state prison in Wethersfield. The execution of Marx was one of the most success full and humane ever carried out at the state prison, there being no rerii5il- strance by the prisoner and no hitch in any of the arrangements by the prison officials. The slayer of Pavol Rodecki, his farmland, was led to the chamber between Deputy Warden Baisden and an assistant; at 12:07 the moose was ad- justed, with a slight groan from the murderer, and at 1912 he was declared dead after the examination of the body by pr. Fox, the prison physician.
 Marx who had been in the company of Rabbi Hoffenberg, his spiritual ad- wiser. for several hours previous to the hanging, made no mention of the crime of which he was convicted, and as the time for the springing of the trap drew near he failed even to proclaim his in nocence of the brutal murder. When he reached the execution chamber Marx glanced about him in a mystified man ner, but said not a word and stepped to the small platform without a fiinch.f He walked steadily, and the only sound that came from him was the indistinct groan which he uttered as the rope was [ frightened about his head after the cap was adjusted. The trap was sprung by Warden Garvin in the presence of W.. ] Q. Burr, Thomas Dudley Wells and A. E. Fuller, of the state prison board; the deputy warden and his assistant, | Dr. Fox and representatives of the four Hartford papers, the Courant, Times, Telegram and Post. Marks body was ! in the air but few moments and inn mediately after the examination by Dr.. Fox 1t was taken to the rear of the prison and placed in plain coffin, which was covered by a black cloth.
 Friends of the dead man, all Hebrews, took charge of the body and after plac- l ing it in small wagon drove it to the Hebrew cemetery, where it was buried at an early hour this morning.
 1 Marx appeared to be in good health and received the death warrant yester- day morning apparently without inter-
 est. Sc ate fairly well during the day, ] but had little to say, excepting to state that he was innocent. Since then, how i ever, the rabbi could get little out of
 the prisoner.

YACHTS OFF WITH THE
 ATLANTIC IN THE LEAD
sUPERBFLEET sT4RTsoYGREAT RACE ACROSS THE
 OCEAN.

Strung Out in Line Six Miles Long as
 They Vanish Into the Mist-American
 Yawl AiIsa and German Schooner
 Hamburg Battling for Second Place
 A Dangerous start-British Ship Val
 haIla Recalled After Crossing Line
 and is Badly Handicapped.
 New York, May 17.-A superb fleet of ocean going sailing yachts swept across starting line at Sandy Hook iiznfsiaip at I2 15 D. m. to-day. and with ths qreenly American schooner Atlantic leading the way. headed out into the broad Atlantic ocean on a race of 0,000 miles to the English coast for a s5, 900 cup offered by Emperor William. Whom last seen as they vanished into the mist they were strung out in line six miles long, heading southeastward and pointing as nearly as possible to a wind that was dead ahead. A quarter of . mile astern of the Atlantic was the ninety foot American yawl Ailsa, which was having a hot brush with the Ger man schooner Hamburg, while three of the leaders were slowly dropping the Philadelphia schooner Hildegarde. Next was the Endymion, holder of the trans atlantic yachting record. Almost a mile astern of the swift Atlantic, and more than half mile astern of the Endy- ,;,1,, JeykJ 7e,1S< ><xt Lys. Strung out behind were the Amer lean barque Apache, the British topsall schooner Sunbeam and five milen astern of the leader was the American three masted schooner Utowana. Bring ing up the rear was the British clipper ship valhalla. The two latter had been delayed by a bad start.
 In such weather as prevailed to-day it was clear that the race lay between the Atlantic, Ailsa and Hamburg with the odds largely in favor of the Allan tic.
 Weather prophets declared 1t not un- likely that the racers were in for a day or two of moderate head winds. If the forecast be fulfilled nothing but half gale of wind from astern will save the big Valhalla from defeat. K 1t was ala i1lsIiiT illgs tslel6 just fe fore the start. Near the line the small
 Ailsa, bearing every mark of the racer was engaged in q jockeying match with the Hildegarde, and to avoid being forc- ed across the line prematurely perform ed some startling manoeuvres. Behind them to the north and east the fleet was spread out in fan shape. Close astern of the leaders was the Atlantio where Captain Charles Barr had placed her in well timed position. The Endy- nlion, Hamburg and Thistle swept down toward the line from windward position, and croWding close upon Che quarter of the latter was the majes- tic valhalla, whose every mast was a. leaning spire of towering canvas. gently bellying before the breeze, and sweeping her toward the line. Still further away were the Sunbeam and Apache taking plenty of sea room to pile on sail ana get under way.
 l Almost at the flash of the starting gun the Ailsa and Hildegarde went across the line. with the yawl slightly in the lead and in the windward posi- | (Continued on Eighth Page.)

BOWEN PUTS CASE RIGHT
 UP TO THE GOVERNMENT
IT MUST DECIDE WHETHER IN-
 oUIRK IS WARRANTED.
Declares He Has Done His Duty as He Sees It and Rests-Yesterday's Devel- opments Few but Interesting-Two
 Important Papers Missing From the List Handed to Him for Examination.

Washington, May II-Having sup piled Secretary Taft with the papers found in the legation at Caracas con cerning Assistant Secretary of State Loonlis, Minister Bowen's position is that he has discharged his duty as he sees it and will rest his case, taking the ground that it is now for the govern ment at Washington to determine whether an inquiry is warranted.
 Developments in the case to-day were few, but interesting As stated official ly to the press they were about as fol- lows:
 First, Minister Bowen called upon Secretary Taft early in the day and told him that upon looking over the papers submitted to him by the secre- tary, as embodying the state depart ment,s correspondence on the subject of the rumors current in Caracas rela- tive to MT. Loomis. he had found that at least two papers were lacking of which he was cognizant. The first of these was a letter from President Cas- .tro to MT. Loomis, then minister to Venezuela, introducing negotiator, in behalf of that country, concerning an arrangement with an American syndi- cate. The second was an assignment of a claim against Venezuela by MT. Jaurett to MT. Loomis. Secretary Taft sent immediately to the state depart ment and a thorough search failed to discover either of these papers. MT. Loomis explained that four days before he left Washington for his California trip, and before Secretary Hays de- parture for Europe. the secretary call- ed his attention to mass of papers, among which were some transmitted to him (Mr Hay) by Minister Bowen at Caracas, which had been found y the minister in the legation at Caracas, in order that Mr. Loonis might select from them such papers as he might re-
 gard as his own. These papers had been on the secretary's desk for a long time. Among them was a certificate of
 stock which Mr. Loonlis said belonged Ito him and which Minister Bowen does not regard as bearing upon this case. Secretary Taft and MT. Looinis, upon
 hearing through Minister Bowen that
 he had copies of the missing papers, agreed to waive all technicalities and
 receive MT. Bowen's copies as sufficient
 for the purpose of the investigation.
 So MT. Bowen later in the afternoon
 submitted these copies to Secretary
 Taft, who in turn supplied copies of
 them to MT. I.oomis for consideration
 and comment.
