tion which. if applied to business
would have made him wonderful

cal organization WAS his delight and
for its sake he sacrificed every pecu-
MARY advantage that ever came to
him.
THE long leadership that he held in
New YORK politics was never broken
until his physical condition during the
last few wears made It impossible for
him 10 retain his hold. Tho great
source of his power was his absolute
loyalty to his friends, He was never

cudahy Leaves City
According to the attaches of the
house, Mr.. Cudahy has not been at
home today. His attorneys refuse to
say where he is, although they ac-
knowledge that they know his where
abouts. 1t is said he has left the city
and will remain away for several days.
Policemen are searching for John
Moss, the chauffeur. who was present.
1t is rumored that he was hurried out
of the city.
Physicians who attended Mr.. Lillis
have been warned to say nothing
about the nature of his injuries tie
is in one of the handsomest suits in
the hospital. A careful guard is kept
over his room to see that none enters
without his personal permission.
An inferno at the hospital is author
ity for the statement that Mr.. Llllis
has a deep cut on each cheek and
a cut on his forehead. His most SER
ious wound is said to be in the left
leg, where the blade of the knife is
reported to have grazed the hone. on
each hip is a deep flesh wound and
one cut WAS inflicted on the left arm,
according to the inferno. Lillis IS re-
ported to be resting well.
LilIis Will Recover
That Lillis vii recover, there is no
doubt. He is an athletic man, more
than six feet tall and strongly built.
For many years he has taken an ac-
tive part i'm all sorts of outdoor sports
here. His ability as golfer is well
known. At different times he has
participated in golf meets throughout
the country.
For several years Lillis has been an
intimate friend of the Cudahy famlly.
He had been at almost every social
affair they gave until recently, 1t
was reported a few months ago that
Lillis and Cudahy had had misunder-
standing. Many rumors were rife at
that time. but they faded away, and
It was generally accepted they were
without foundation
Explanation of the small bond re-
uuired Of Cudahy' given by police court
officials is that Lillis had preferred no
charge against him 50 far, and they
do not feel like making any other ac-
cusation than disturbing the peace on
their own responsibility.

not prosecute Cudahy SO the case may

CONTRACTOR WHO KILLED TWO AND WOUNDED FIVE
 MAKES GOOD HIS ESCAPE

both of whom were killed. Gaspar Restelli. 35, brother of the murderer was shot thrice through the body and IS expected to die and c. Theodore Hardwick, Benjamin Bishop, William M. Adrian and Archibald Parsons were all wounded.
 Business difficulties with his fam fly and the Hardwick brothers are said to have been the cause of Res tellis murderous outbreak. Dashing through the streets of the city here in a buggy, the slayer picked out his victims and shot them down as fast as the horse could carry him from one location to another, apparently systematically, determined to wipe out every person who had offended him.
 It was nearly two hours after Res telli's series of daughters ended before any organized pursuit was taken up, but from that time all during the night bodies of men were searching for him.
 Restelli did his killing with two heavy army revOlvers which he pur- chased with the proceeds of diamond ring cawned early in the week. De- spite a defect in one eye Restelli is known as almost a dead shot and only the speed with which he carried on his murder plan. it is believed, pre- vented many other persons from being wounded. Restelli was a member of Company K, M. V. M.. in the Spanish war; is six feet tall, and is man who will fight to the death before being captured.
 The only clue to the murderer's whereabouts discovered since the kill ings were an undershirt, bearing his initials found by a Quincy officer near a pond Of stagnant water. It is be- lieved that Restelli hoped that by leaving this his oursuers would think he was drowned.
 Resteli is an Italian of fair educa- tion and unlimited ambition which has many times been thwarted. He as- pired to riches and he has seemed in a fair way toward acquiring them when, through a trick of fate. he would be baked. Of the perfons he murdered and shot, coolly and deliberately. yes terday. all have been involved in some way in his reverses.

THE AUTOMOBILE WORLD

Fifteen hundred motoring parties stopped at one Long Island hotel on a recent Sunday.
 N Y, to compel drivers of automo- piles to reduce speed on streets on which schools are located.
 After extensive experiments with electric motor-vans for use in postal work, the German postal authorities in Berlin have placed an order for twenty vehicles. These machines will serve as substitutes for the fourteen lines of letter mail collecting vans which now. gather the letters from the various outlying localities and take them to the central office.
 The postmaster of Kansas City, Mo-, has been having all kinds Of trouble in having collections made from the street mail boxes at night, but now he hopes that his worries are at an end. He has installed a motor car to do the work and it is exceeding his fondest expectations. The car is of the run about type; the rumble has been re- moved and in it's place is fitted. a specially constructed steel gondola, in which the mail matter is placed. Oth- CT cars will be installed in the near future.
 Members of the Cleveland, O., Au- tomobile club have formed themselves into a committee of the whole, with the avowed intention of running down and punishing those who persist in wilfully disobeying the rules of the road and the ordinances of the mun1- cipalities through which they pass. The members are giving special atten- tion to ,chauffeurs who "borrow" The car from it's owner, and then violate every law made in regard to motor vehicles Good results have attend
 e., n, I,n to remedy the evil in their locality before long.
 The movement to construct motor car roads is spreading rapidly in Mex ico The Governors of the different States are giving the matter their personal attention, with the result that many remote localities that were visied by the ordinary traveller are now placed in close touch with the channels of commerce. In the states of Guerrero and Chiapas particularly has the construction of modern high ways resulted in great benefits to the rural communities reached by them While the rainy season interferes somewhat with the operation of reg ular motor car service over some of there new roads the condition of the latter is fine during the great part or the year.
 According to one motor expert. there were only 50 automobiles all told own ed in America in 1899.
 The first automobile, in the sense of the word as it is used today, was built in Germany by Gottlieb Daimler in 1886.
 At the present time there are in the United States about 160 automobile factories. while in the State of Mich igan alone there are between thirty e, tU a total a. tion of over $40, 100000.

h4 EzIiS,t+ In Canada


 "One cannot be long in any hotel or restaurant in Canada without seeing halibut on the bill of fare" says a writer in Canada. ''In this respect it assumes the position of a national dish. It is there on Christmas day and again on midsummer day. and there are not many days in between these two dates when halibut finds no place on the menu. So plentiful is halibut in the waters of the west coast of Vancouver island that Ernest McGaffey on one occasion watched a few Indians, with their crude fishing arrangements, catcL 21,000 pounds in Clayoquot sound in. one day When it is remembered that halibut some times weighs as much as 300 pounds perhaps this achievement will lose 7 tiny part of it's glory"

LONGEST DRY SPELL IN 1762 WHEN NO RAIN FELL
 IN STATES FOR 123 DAYS.

An interesting record is of the severe droughts in America as far back as the landing of the Pilgrims, is as follows: In the summer of 1921 there was no rain for 24 days in sue cession. 1880, Al; 1857. 75; 1862, 30; 1874. 45; 1888, S1: 1894, 62: 1705, 10; 1715, 46; TIPS, 61; 1730, 92; TAI, p; 1749, 1OS; 1755. 42; 1762. 123; 1773, 80; 1791, S2; 1892, 23; SIP, 2S; 1856, 24; 1871, AZ, 1875, 26, 1876. 26.

 Quincy, Mass, July 3O.-That Louis Restelli, the Italian granite contract or who killed two and wounded five persons here, has escaped from the city is the belief here today of the police after heading a long and fruit less search through the whole vicin- 1ty in which hundreds of men took part.
 For hours in the early part of to- day, posses of police, militia and citi- zens secured the environs of the city with orders to shoot to kill if the murderer was found. Not a trace was discovered, however, and at noon the hunt was called off. Only the regular police are now on the look out for Restellt here and they are partly engaged in furnishing protec- ton to the slayer's family who fear the man who killed his mother and wounded his brother will return and wipe out all the others of his blood.
 Information has been received that a man answering the description of Restelli left Boston at 5:4 o'clock this morning on the Boston & Maine train for Rutland, Vt, Conductor c. boarded his train shortly before de- parture and that Restelli offered him a mileage book which was only enough to take the latter to North ampton and that as Restelli had no money with him he got off at North ampton.
 Chief Burrell immediately telephoned to Northampton police headquarters to be on the lookout for Restelli and he also telephoned to Rutland, Brat tleboro and Barre with similar in- structions.
 The official description of Restelli which was given out at 10:45 o'clock this morning is 39 years old, five feet eight, 145 pounds, swarthy complexion high cheek bones, one eye defective wears gold trimmed glasses, bald head ed, wearing a black Derby hat and dark check suit when last seen.
 Restelli's victims were his mother, Mrs. Mariana Restelli, 65, and Hen rv F., Hardwick 66 a ouarry owner
