Geneva, May 4.-The overheating of
an axle compelling the removal of the
car from the train on which King
Edward was travelling to France, is
declared by a neswpaper here to have
been probably an attempt to wreck

found that the grease box on one axle
was missing. The train hid been
running at rate OF hundred kffo-
metres an hour and the axle was
white hot. If the train had gone a
few miles further the axles might
have been fused and the cars would
then have been derailed. 1t is said
that the bolts and pins securing the
box had been deliberately removed.
