Police Drop Robbery Theory
in, Jersey City Murder Case

JERSEY CITY, Dec. s.-Notwith-
standing the police authorities have
been diligently following up every
clue that might probably lead to 81
solution of the death of Arthur j.
Coward, a shipping clerk employed
by the Colgate Soap Company, whose
body was found In the hallway on the
second-hoor landing at 81 Grand
street Sunday morning with both
lungs punctured by u bullet, is still
unsolved.
The police have abandoned the
theory of robbery as a motive for
the crime. They are inclined to be-
lieve that Coward was seeking an
entrance to one of the apartments
on the second floor when he was shot
down by one of the inmates who mis-
took him for a burglar. The police
have learned that 1t was not the first
visit that he had paid to the interior
of the building.

To Use DISKS At
GRADE CROSSINGS
C. r. r. Adopts Red Standards
With Word stop" in Place
of Flags.
rspecl.l to DE Newsrk stsr.1


TRENTON, Dec. s.-The Board OF
Public Utility Commissioners has
been advised by the Central Railroad
Company OF New Jersey that the
company proposes a change IN ite
system OF signaling at grade cross
ings so as to afford better protection
for those crossing the compapy's
tracks. The company states that az
against a white flag now in use 1t
proposes to substitute large red
disk upon which the word stop" 10
to be displayed In large white letters.
This disk is to be held aloft by tho
crossing Waterman and In front OF
an approaching vehicle. The COM
pany contends that this will offer n
striking protest against the driver
proceeding and that II IL something
that cannot be misunderstood. Tho
company states further that for night
protection 1t proposes to use the color
''red," such as is prescribed by the
road rules OF the State Of New Jersey
for real protection of automobiles,
etc, and for red lights covering OBJ
structions or openings In the streets,
This, the company contends, lie q
universal and thoroughly understood
anu llidJ AdIhPC VI q DPt-
cial design showing this will be en-
ployed and used upon the crossings
by the company's Waterman.
The letter from Vice President Bes-
Ter, OF the Central Railroad Company,
is in answer to a letter from the
board directing attention to an acci-
dent which had been reported to It..
This accident apparently resulted
from an automobilist installing the
waving of a white flag as signal
to proceed. he thinking that the track
was clear when a train was ap-
preaching. Inspector McKelvey, of
the board, suggested that 1t might be
advisable to use a green flag and
green light in place of the white flag
and white light commonly used.

MOLDERS OF FASHIONS
DISCUSS DOGS DRESS
Leather Collars Are Still Worn, but
Attention Must Be Paid to
Fine Effects.

Special Gable to The Washington Herald.
Paris, Aug. e.-The dog question is
again the liveliest subject at seaside
and salon. Having threshed out fash
ions for women. artists and our leaders
,of fashion. male and female. are dis
cussing what fashionable dogs should
wear Here are their conclusions:
Leather collars are still worn, but
they should be of the same color and
material as the leash. The most fash
ionable collars are OF brass or silver,
many of them mounted with precious
stones. turquoises. sapphires, and rubies.
Much attention is paid to artistic
combinations in dog wear. For in
stance, a dark brindled bulldog should
have a red leather collar with silver
gilt mountings, while a white hrindled
dog looks best in a white collar set
with turquoises.
For Pekinese. japanese, and King
Charles spaniels. the collar should be
of worked silver. light and supple, OF
fino mesh and closed by tiny paddock.
A very stylish effect is obtained by the
use of patent leather collars, and a
ravishing combination for Poms is the
dog harness which encrcles the neck
and brest.
Greyhounds look best in lleht-colored
coats with stripe to match.
For motoring. English stuffs and fur
coats are in high favor. and plaids of
dark shades are considered most suit
able. At the seaside, sporting sweaters
are very fashionable for short-haired
dogs, and the wet summer is response
BILE for the appearance Of canine mackin-
toshes. daintily gathered in at the neck
and legs.
Every weTI-bred dog has at least two
pairs Of boots, a pair of Wellinetons for
outdoor wear and velvet or satin pumps
for indoors.

The Queen questioned the professor
through the Princess Colonna, lest he
should recognize her voice. and thus
learned that the hymn composed by him
formed part of a solemn requiem mass
which he had composed.
1t was only when he refused to have
the mass publicly sung that theeQueen
revealed her identity and complimented
him on the fine music.
The mass was sung last Sunday for
the first time before a limited number
of privileged guests and is said to be
even superior to Verdfs mass.

QUEEN OF ROUMANIA-"CARM
SYLNA.-

Bucharest. Roumania, Aug a.-Much
sympathy is expressed throughout Eu-
rope for the gentle Queen Elizabeth of
Roumania, who is known the world
over as Carmen sylvia poetess, now
elist, Translator, and advocate of peace.
When the Roumanian troops were
called out TO make war on Bulgaria.
she turned to the King and cried:
This ends my life work." and then
tainted.
But now that hostilities seem to have
been stopped before her troops were
obliged TO enter Sofia, she seems to
have recovered her strength and most
of her good spirits. She has taken new
heart, and now has high hopes that her
army will soon be permitted to return.
When the Roumanian troops were
on the march, Queen Elizabeth received
from the CZarina of Bulgaria a plain
tive appeal to stop the war, to which
she replied that while it was true that
Bulgaria was being invaded by the
Roumanfan troops, their movements
would be made with as much consid-
GRAFTON S possible.
The aged Queen has not been seen
IN public since the latest Balkan de-
yelopments, which shattered all her
dreams Of peaceful progress.
