Collision Helps Police to Trace
Mrs. Lade1C's Car.

After stealing, according to her chauf-
feuri an automobile valued at $1,000,
owned by Mrs. Edward r. Ladew, who
lives in the winter at the Hotel Plaza,
four men, whose names are unknown to
the police, succeeded in getting into a
smash-up with another automobile and
hurriedly made their escape. The acci-
dent occurred al S9th street and River
side Drive, when Martin Morrison, a
chauffeur employed by f. G. Burke, of
No. 336 West seth street, rounded the
corner. His car crashed into Mrs.
S9th street at a high rate of speed. The
four men in Mrs. Ladew's car hurried
away. Neither car was badly damaged,
and Morrison towed the machine to the
Belnord garage, at No. go West S7th
street. a few minutes later Arthur Don
ovan, chauffeur for Mrs. Ladew, ap-
peared and identified it as Mrs. LadeW's.
About IL o'clock last night Donovan
went to the West 6Sth street police sta
tlon and reported that Mrs. Ladew's car
had been stolen about o'clock from in
front of his home, No "a West 64th

DEFENCE OF LEOPOLD.
No Congo atrocities, Says
Archbishop Ireland.

st. Paul. Jan. 3.-Archbishop Ireland,
in statement issued for publication
to-day, warmly defended the course Of
the late King Leopold of Belgium in his
government of the Congo.
AS time is allowed for calm considera-
ton of facts" says the Archbishop, ".he
general American press changes very
much for the better its tone with regard
to the administration of the Congo under
the late King of Belgium. There was at
first the passionate outcry against bar
barious cruelties committed under his
regime. Now. however. official docu-
ments or reports of disinterested and
unprejudiced travellers are being listened
to. and the bogey of atrocities is being
more or less put to rest
'As plain matter of fact, there ware
no atrocities in the Congo. This NAV
not be taken as meaning that the Belgian
operations on the whole, in a new end
untried field of labor, were at all times
free from abuses of any kind. but that
the oft proclaimed atrocities took place
and were the results of a general ad-
ministration is entirely false"
