BUDAPEST STARTLED
BY TWO SUICIDES

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
BUDAPEST, July 15.-One suicide and
another suicide occurring almost stimuli
taneously and with the victims scions OF
the richest and most aristocratic families
startled the Hungarian capital to-day. In
the first case Baron Joseph Banhidy shot
himself dead in his fathers presence, be-
cause the latter had upbraided him FOR
his dissipation.
Within a few moments Count Carlzay,
a well-known character Of the city, shot
himself while begging his mother for
money with which to carry on his drss-
paitons. He is dying. Carlzay while de-
manding money from his mother drew
out his watch and threatened to shoot
himself II his request was not complied
with within five minutes. He had made
such threats before and the mother did
not think him in earnest. When the five
minutes was up, however. the young
man whipped a revolver from his pocket
and fired a bullet into his head falling
into his mothers arms.
Both Banhidy and Carlzay were noted
spendthrifts and their exploits and pro-
fiigacy had frequently shocked their re-
spective families.

While some wilmingsonians are try
ing to have Major Flagler. United

Major Deakyne is now in charge Of
river and harbor projects at Philadel-
phia. and his detail to the Wilmington
district is in addition 20 his Philadel-
phia duties.
While the official orders do not 60
specify. many persons have a suspicion
that there Is an intention to combine
the Philadelphia and Wilmington dis
rricts again, which might remove the
engineering office from Wilmington to
Philadelphia. The Wilmington dis

delphia district.
Major DealSyne. the new engineer IN

TRENTON, July 1.-THE State Rail.
road Commission took I'D the matter Of
hot journal boxes or locomotives and
cars, and decided that the old-fashicn-
ed way Of pouring water on a hot box
must be dispensed with, and this ac.
tion crystahzes the iron and makes
breaks easy of occurrence. The board
has notified railroad companies tina.
this method Of cooling hot bot boxes
must be Discontinued.
The commission has called the attcr-
tion Of the Pennsylvania Railroad to
the crowded coalition Of cars and Cell
eral Manager Sheppard has written
saying that when cars in a crowded
condition reach Trenton from Philadel-
phia it is the duty Of the conductors
TO add other cars. The same thing
must be done at New Brunswick when
running in an opposite direction.
