vel, N. Y, whose automobile struck
and fatally injured Antonio Carchio,
ten, of 601 Fifth street, while he was
returning home after viewing the pa

The death of little Dorothy Hughes
was particularly pathetic. Excited by
the prospect of seeing the parade, she
ran into the bedroom of her father,
Frank Hughes who is critically Ill

he did not meet with single acci-
dent

among them two policemen, that

down Dorothy. He had been driving

AUTO
THEFT IS SOLVED
"Queen of Bandits" and Two
Men Are Arrested in
Camden.

CAMDEN, Oct. 13.-As the culmin-
alton of months of organized detec-
tive work, in which the police of
New York, Philadelphia and various
New Jersey cities have co-operated
with the agents Of e. B. Hopwood,
of 80 John street, New York city. ad-
juster for more than score of bur-
glary insurance companies, depreda-
tions of an organized band of auto
mobile bandits which have cost the
automobile owners of New York more
than $1,OOO,0OO in the last five years
seems brought to a close today.
The alleged leaders of the gang,
Eugene Hatton, better known as
Funny Hatton;, the mysterious
woman who has gained the title of
Queen of the Auto Bandits and
a man said to be the brains OF
the gang are now under arrest in
Camden, N. J. Hatton is the pro-
prietor of the III. and H. garage
here
The arrests were made Saturday
evening by Hopwood. State Detective
William Shasta, of New Jersey ana
his lieutenant, John Broderlck. In
the possession of the prisoners was
a new model high priced car stolen
on August 81 in New York from Har-
rison B. Smith, of Charleston, w. Va.
The car had been repainted and re-
furnished.
Several cars which have been stolen
in the last year, the detectives say,
have been disposed of by Hatton, but
this Is the first time that they have
been able to catch him in possession
of one of them The two men and
the woman are now held under the
charge of grand larceny. 1t is ex-
pected that several more arrests Will
follow within a few days.
So many romances have been woven
about the personality of the Queen
of the Auto Bandits" that few first
hand facts came as a refreshing nov
city Information properly booked
under this head came to light today
in the course of an investigation into
the roundup of the Queen and her
confederates.
In the first place, 1t is necessary to
get a fair idea of what the gang has
actually accomplished. 1t is estimat-
ed that less than half of the S1,O00,0 900
worth of automobiles and automobile
accessories stolen in this city in five
years has been recovered. Many of
the machines finally returned to their
owners have been stripped" re-
painted and otherwise ''mutilated."

Second National Of Orange, says that
there was a shortage of about 5000
when Smith left his employ. He
denied that the deficit was s1S, 900, as
had been rumored.
'Smith did not give us satisfaction
for a long time" said Mr. Bonnell,
land finally we dispensed with his
services
when he went to the Roseville
Trust Company / believed it was my
duty to myself and to the banking in
terests of the community and to the
public generally to make known to
the officers of that institution certain
facts about the man. This / was not
able to do, as the man / spoke to re-
fused to receive my well-intended in
formation, declined to call at the Or
ange bank to discuss the matter with
me and finally called me by telephone
and told me that I would be made to
prove in court some of the things
had said if l repeated them"
Smith emphatically denys any
shortage or discrepancy while en-
ployed in the Orange bank.

Because Of an accident the Bolsnd

from the cont est.
The accident happened yesterday
afternoon during trial test over
Newark Bay and the machine was
wrecked. w. Leonard Bonney, the

Bonney ascended from the Boland
company's hangar on Newark Bay
near the Lehigh Valley bridge. He ex-
pected to make a fast run to Red

a final test before the contest today.
The machine went off quickly until
it struck a strong breeze that was
moving at twenty-five mile an
hour rate. 1t was then about fifty
feet above the surface of the bay.
Bonney shut off his engine in order
to veer around. He lost momentum
and then the breeze caught the BIZ
plane and 1t capsized, descending like
a shot.
Attendants had been watching the
flying machine in its effort to get
away and they were lowering near
in a motorboat They hurried to the
rescue and the craft quickly picked
UP Bonney, but not until the motor
boat had struck the aeroplane.
An effort was made to tow the
aeroplane back to the hangar, but
the motorboat was not powerful
enough Several other motorboats
then tried to help out, but the best
they could do was to tow the wrecked
airship to the Lehigh Valley railroad
bridge, where it was tied up for the
night 1t was brought back to the
hangar Today.

Huerta government that the United

upon any injury to the Mexican depu-
ties now under arrest.
1t has been left entirely TO Mr.
Lind's discretion whether he should
return to Mexico City TO impress
those views on the Mexican authorl-
ties. but Charge Shaughnessy has
been directed to address himself to
the minister of foreign relations and
make II plain that the United States
attaches "the gravest Importance" to
the arrest of the deputies and iG

their fate

day that there would be no depar-
ture from the original position that
the Mexicans should settle their own
affairs. There are no plans today
for any increase in the number of
American warships in Mexican
waters.
The government here has PRACTICAL
ly abandoned all hope of seeing an
election or treating further With
Huerta as an individual. There is a
disposition in administration circles
to await the course of events with the
hope that the factional lines will =
SO tightly drawn as 20 bring a5c3 .
natural adjustment without outside
interference.
My opinion is that there can be no
constitutional election In Mexico
under existing circumstances, said
Senator Bacon. chairman of the for
eign relations committee, after a con-
ference with President Wilson, at the
White House The senator said he
had not discussed that phase with the
President but that IL was obvious that
with the arrest Of the deputies and
the dissolution OF congress, no one

and that there could lot be sfy fres

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13-The state
ment that Thomas Fortune Ryan
subscribed $4,000 to the campaign
fund of President Wilson when he
ran for Governor of New Jersey was
made IN the House this afternoon by
Oscar w. Underwood, chairman of
the ways and means committee. I'm
derwood's reference TO the New Jer-
sey contribution of Ryan created a
sensation in the House.
The statement was made in answer
to Richmond Pearson Hobson's S
charge that Underwood's campaign
for the Presidential nomination last
year was financed by Ryan.
Underwood, said Hobson, had been
dummy In the hands of his man
ayers and was used as the tool of
Wall Street.
Does the gentleman charge that
Theodore Roosevelt was the tool of
Wall Street" asked Underwood, be
cause George Perkins financed his
campaign? Does he charge that the
present President of the United
States is a tool of Wall Street be-
cause Mr.. Mccormick subscribed to
his presidential campaign or because

TALK Of SENATE
ADJOURNMENT
Congress, Acceding to Presi-

Session, Pending Currency.
Star Bureau,
Metropolitan National Bank Bldg.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.

" n
Talk of a Senate adjournment until
the middle of November was stopped
today by the positive announcement
of the President TO several senators
that he would not agree to such a
program.
The word was carried from the
White House to the Capitol this
morning by Senator Simmons that
there is to be no compromise in the
Presidents purpose of speeding up
the currency legislation as fast as
possible.
Because of this inslstence at the
White House the Senate will continue
to hold sessions two or three times a
week until the currency committee is
ready to report a bill. The House
also will go through the form of meet
ing twice a week until the currency
bill has passed the Senate or through
out the time remaining before the be-
ginning of the regular session, if cur
rency legislation does not get through
the Senate sooner.
II think it would be a political
blunder equal to a crime" said Sena-
tor Stone, of Missouri, at the confer
ence with the President, IF we do not
pass a currency bill during the pres
ent session. We cannot let Ii go over
until December"
Senator Simmons said Democratic
leaders would continue to work for a
prompt termination of hearings and
early consideration of the bill. Sena-
tors Sheppard and James. of Ken
lucky, also expressed emphatic views
against any recess.
Efforts to induce the President to
agree to the adjournment of the
II g., Il. - .
day as unavailing, as the efforts to
secure a Senate adjournment AS q
result, there will be an agreement
that, while the House is to meet, nc
legislation will be attempted, and
probably no effort will be made to
keep members in Washington
