FIFTY PERSONS INJURED
Head-on Collision Between Two Trac-
ton Cars During a Heavy Fog
Near Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, Sept. 23.-Fog was re-
sponsible today for a head-on collision
between two cars on the Southwestern
Traction company's line between this
city and Chester, in which about fifty
persons were injured, several probably
fatally.
A car leaving Philadelphia with
workmen employed by the Baldwin Lo-
connective company at its out-of- town
plant, and known as the Baldwin trip
per-" was speeding along the single
track with seventy-two men on board,
when suddenly a car coming from
Chester doomed up in the fog. Before

Among the most seriously hurt were:
Edward Smith, leg cut off and shock !;
may die.
William Mullen, ribs crushed in;
may die.
Philip Managan.
George A. Caffrey.
Harry Potter
n. Poscovitch; all hurt internally.
In addition. a score or more are in
various hospitals with broken limbs
and other injuries. Most of them are
suffering from slight cuts.
The Baldwin tripper had. waited on
the siding for the regular Philadelphia
bound car to pass and then proceeded
toward the Baldwin works. the crew
being unaware that an extra car was
coming toward them on the same track
AS heavy fog prevailed, collision
was inevitable.

FRANCE NOT TO
HAVE FREE HAND
Resume of Germany's Reply to
Note on Morocco Has
Reached Paris.

Paris. Sept. ga telegraphic resume of
Germanys reply to the Franco-Spanish
note on Morocco reached Paris today from
Jules Cambon, the French ambassador
to Berlin, and already has been the sub
ject of a conference between Foreign Min
The text of the reply is coming by a spec
ial messenger and will not arrive here I'M
til tomorrow. Officials are reticent with
regard to this telegram; nevertheless 1t
has been learned from competent source
that the principal difficulty raised by
Germany concerns the question of the re
endorsement of France and Spain for the
expenses incurred by their military occu-
patton of Morocco.
While Germany does not deny that
France has right to certain reimburse
ments in this regard she takes the posi-
ton that France and Spain acted under
the Algeciras act, and therefore without
a special mandate and that consequently
all the powers have a right to know and
examine the terms of the settlement. IN
other words France has no right to COM
plete arrangements without consulting
the signatories of the Algeciras act and
particularly she should not exact special
guarantees from Mulai Hafid. such as,
for instance. the occupation of territory.
until the debt is liquidated. This is the
crux of the German objection and the
point most likely will lead to sharp
controversy.
While the form of Germany's reply is
conciliatory the substance leaves little
doubt that GERMANY intends to insist that
France shall not have a flee hand in
settling her accounts with Morocco.

OFFICIAL HEAD STILL SAFE

Not Yet Called to Case of
Marshal Spry.
fSpecial to The Herald.)

Washington. d. c., Sept. 23-Still no
developments with regard to United
States Marshal Spry, recently NOM
mated by the Republicans for governor
of Utah.
Inquiry was made at the White
House today regarding the Utah mar
shall, whose case appears TO be on a
par with that of Second Assistant
Postmaster General McClcsry. whose
resignation was demanded because ne
had accepted a nomination for con-
gress in Minnesota, but it was said
Spry's case had not been called to the
presidents attention, and it could not
be said in advance what action he
would take 1t was indicated that he
would probably refer the matter to the
attorney general and act upon his adj
vice. Inquiry at the department of
Justice brought forth the usual reply
that nothing had been heard officially
regarding Spry's nomination, and
therefore his case had not received at
tentiOn.

HEAVY RAINS PREDICTED
Forecaster of the Weather Bureau at
Washington Sees End of
Drouth in East.

Washington. Sept. 23.-'"The drouth that
is prevailing throughout the country with
such serious results will be broken about
the beginning of next week." predicted
Forecaster Garriott of the weather bu-
reau today.
There will be disturbances which will
set in on the Pacific coast by tomorrow
or next day which will cross the country
and bring fairly copious rains.
The weather reports show that for a
week there has been no appreciable pre-
cipitation of rain over the great agricul-
tural districts of the country. The in
tense heat and long-continued drouth, es-
pecially over the lake region and New
England. have intensified the conditions
favorable to the further development of
the forest fires, and these have continued
over large areas with great damage and
loss of life.
Rain was also fairly abundant and well
distributed over Montana, Idaho and por-
lions of eastern Oregon, North Dakota
and western Minnesota.
