A SURVIVORS, STORY.

HARTFORD, Conn, Sept. Jos
eph w. Boardman of East Hartford,
who is now conducting a hotel at Sa-
vim Rock Conn, was one of the first
to arrive from the scene of the wreck
at Talford. A correspondent for the
International News Service talked
with him on the telephone.
Mr. Boardman said the scene at the
wreck was one of horror. The first
section of the White Mountain express
crashed into the rear end of the Bar
Harbor express and ploughed through
the cars turning them into a mass of
splinters and twisted steel. Some sew
en- or eight of the killed were hurled
into a melon patch beside the spot
where the train stopped.
Mr.. Boardman and a Mr.. DeMoar
helped to bring these bodies to the
improvised morgue. There were two
other bodies on top of the mammoth
superheated engine of the heavily la
den White Mountain express and Mr..
Boardman expressed the belief that
ten or more were under the engine
which stood painting in a mass of
splintered wood and twisted steel as
though surveying the damage it
wrought.

EFFORT TO KIDNAP
THAW IS REPORTED
New York Officials Are Said
to Be Behind the Plan
For Abduction.
(Natioral News Association

SHERBROOKE, Quebec, Sept. g
before Judge Hutchinson in Consta
BILE Bourdeaus habeas corpus proceed
ing in the Thaw case today, sensation
al reports became current that repre-
sentatives of Duchess county, New
York, had planned to hdnap Harry
Thaw
Judge Hutchinson announced that
he probably would not deliver an opin
ion on the habeas corpus proceedings
until late this afternoon or Wednes
day. He also announced that he would
hear arguments in chambers, which
was a keen disappointment to the
hundreds of persons who stormed the
court house.
The plot to carry Thaw back to New
York in a high-powered touring car
relayed along the road, was reported
to be in the hands of Captain John
Lanyon, the famous head of the private
detective agency, who came here with
former District Attorney Jerome OF
New York. Lanyon had credentials
of being officially appointed to rep
resent the office of the district at
torney of Duchess county, and car
ries a commission as a keeper in Mat
teawan asylum.
The leaking out of the kidnapping
report caused out-of-town newspaper
correspondents to engage automobile:
to follow the kidnapers if the daring
plan was attempted.

DECLARE ROADS OF
COUNTY VERY POOR
Commissioners May Seek to
Have Three Mile Road
Law Invalidated.

Wayne county is far behind other
counties in Indiana in the building OF
good roads according to County Com
missioner Albert Anderson, who stated
today that the roads being built here
are not to be compared with those
around Cincinnati. The county com
missioners returned Saturday after
noon from Ohio after visiting sew
eral parts OF the state for the pur-
pose OF making an investigation of the
condition of roads there
The concrete road proposition
which is to be tried out here, will
not prove satisfactory, Mr.. Anderson
believes. The concrete and cement
roads are equally as poor as the ma
cadam, the commissioners reported
The most satisfactory roads, Mr..
Anderson believes. is the macadam
roads covered with tarvia, as the Ma
tional Road west of the city within
the corporation was treated New
road specifications may be brought up
after a consultation has been held be-
tween the surveyor and the commits
| sionerS.
All of the commissioners believe
the three mile road law, under which
most of the roads in the county have
| been built recently is a poor one and
/ imposes a hardship upon many people.
A plan is being considered by. the
commissioners which may result in
the law being declared unconstitution-
al. If a petition is rejected the mat
ter must be decided by the courts
and the commissioners believe the
! law can be set aside in this way. If
the law was declared unconstitutional
the residents of the rural districts
would be compelled to pay all of the
improvements on highways rather
than receive assistance from the city
! taxpayers.

1000 MILE PIGEON FLIGHT.
Record BY Working MIN Fancier's Bird.
Is published Emery
Wednesday II Saturday

A new British record for a long distance
pigeon flight has been established by an
Enelish-bred bird in the great international
race started from Rome on June 20, a bird
belonging to Mr., G. H. Hudson, a working
man %funcier, Of Derby, arriving home late
on Tuesday night, just a month after it was
liberated
The distance from Rome is 1000 miles
and this is the first time a pigeon has ac-
compIished the flight. Fanciers consider
it a wonderful feat.
The previous ong,distance record by a
British pigeon was accomplished by q bird
belonging to Mr.D.R. Adams,of Cambuslang,
Glasgow, which flew from Mirande, France,
to Scotland, SEA miles in twenty-eight days.
Longer flights than that of Mr.. Hudson's
bird have been established in America, but
IN these cases the birds had no such
obstacles as mountains and a twenty miles
sea passage.
Weather conditions during the past month
have been against speed records, and the
Rome-Derby flight must be regarded mainly
as a feat of endurance. Mr.. Hudson pigeon
is six years old. The bird has twice won
races from Guernsey (270 miles}. 1t has
flown from Mirande goo miles) twice and
also from OAK, in France (about $50 miies).
The Rome rnce was promoted by Belgian
fanciers, who entered 1000 birds rs against
106 sent by English fanciers. Sixty-two OF
the Belgian birds have reached home, "a dls-
lance of about 500 miles. -Ddity M0lt, IUJ.
