GROSS IS BLAMED.
Coroner Durham Holds Him
Responsible for Wreck.
(National News Association)

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Dec. IA
Coroner Durham gave his verdict in
the Irvington wreck inquiry today. 1t
holds head brakeman Carl Gross, of
indianapolis, responsible for the wreck
and finds engineer Willis York guilty
of negligence and carelessness. The
verdict is based on evidence of Cross,
York and Earl Cox, rear brakeman.
Cox is absolved of blame, as are al
so conductor Patrick Hines and fire
man Fred Pemberton. The fireman md
engineer of the passenger train, botn
of whom met death in the wreck, are
cleared of all blame. The company's
rules are that the engineer shall be
responsible for switches at his end of
the train. Engineer Yorks testimony
was that he went toward the switch
to close it and met Cross returning.
Cross in answer to his question Wheth-
er the switch had been closed replied,
ut is all right" AT this time Cox
came up and the question was repeat
ed and the same answer given for
Cox's benefit.

CHANGES MADE FOR
AUTOMOBILE RACES

way Management Reduces
Piston Displacement.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 14.-Working
to the betterment, if possible, of the
great classic in motor racing known
as the 5OO-mile International Sweep
stakes Race, change has been made
in the limitation of the piston dis
placement. After much careful con
sideration the management of the In
dianapolis Motor Speedway decided
to make the limit for the piston dis
placement, for the third annual 500
mile race, $50 cubic inches as against
500 cubic inches for the first and sec
ond annual events which We're so sue
cessfully run in 1911 and 1912.
In the field of twenty-ceven starters
for the race of -912 the displacement
varied from 243 cubic inches TO 1919
cubic inches; the latter figure being
the piston displacement fthe Cutting
car driven by Bob Burman,
That this change has struck a pOpu-
lar chord with the automobile manu-
facturers who are interested in racing
is evidenced by the many communica.
tons received from them signifying
their approval of this act on the part
Oh TIE speedway management, anu IOl-
lowing is an expression from Finley R.
Porter, engineer of the Mercer Au,v-
mobile company, whose racing cars
have achieved great results in their
racing campaign:
''YOur decision to limit your race to
$50 inch piston, | believe to be one of
the w;sest moves taken in the racing
game tor some time. My impression
is that it will produce real race cars
that are capable of maintaining speed,
and want TO express my appreciation
of your timely action as to this, and
feel that you deserve a great deal of
credit and support"
The entry list for this great annual
sporting event will not be open until
Jan. /, 1913. Entry blanks are being
prepared at the office of the Indiana
polls Motor Speedway and will go for
ward to the manufacturers about Dec.
20, and the scramble for the honor OF
the first entry will no doubt provide a
source of interesting announcements

FOR SERVING TARTAR SAUCE
Idea Put into Use by One Hostess
Would Seem to Have Many
Good Points.

A good idea for the serving of tar
tar sauce of mayonnaise is suggested
by one enterpriisng housewife. She
cuts a lemon in half, cleans out the in
side thoroughly and then fills the
halves with the sauce. She serves
one to each guest. When fish or sal
nd is served the little lemon cups are
placed around the edge of the platter
and one is taken by each guest. In
this way the sauce is kept firm and
strong instead of melting into a liquid
when put on a hot plate.
For the home where guests are al
ways arriving and departing there is
nothing quite so nice for the windows
as white cotton crepe. This may be
simply hemmed or trimmed with ball
fringe. For the dressers and bureaus
covers of fieece-lined piQue will be
found very satisfactory. This may
be cut into the required size and the
edges buttonholed in scallops. Two
sets OF curtains and covers should be
kept on hand, one in use and a clean
Que besides.
