MRS. FLACLER HURT
in AUTO CRASH
Car Wrecked and Upset
When Hit by Machine
at Harrison.

Mrs. John H. Flagler and her two
guests; the Rev. and Mrs. j. 8. Stone,
were hurled from Mrs. Flagler's car, in
Harrison, N. Y, in Purchase st., near
Harrison av., in a collision last night
with an ,.utomobile owned by Sydney
S. Bean, of Port Chester, and driven by
Frederick Zietz.
Unconscious, Mrs. Flagler was picked
up and carried to a cottage, where doc
tors, hurriedly called, found that she
was not seriously injured, though bah-
" cut and bruised and suffering from
shock. That she and her guests es-
caped death is considered in the nature
of a miracle.
The chauffeur and the footman were
also thrown heavily to the pavement
but they, as we'll as Mr.. and Mrs. Stone
escaped with few slight cuts and
bruises.
Mrs. Flagler had been TO the
Heather Dell Farm, the new estate OF
Adolph Lewisohn. to attend the an
nual meeting of the National Commit
tee on Prison Labor and was return
ing to her country home at North
Brook Farm, Greenwich, Conn.
Zietz is the brother of a butcher.
Yesterday afternoon he started out to
make a number of deliveries, one of
them being at the Bean place. There
his car broke down and Mr.. Bean lent
him one of his to finish his route.
While driving at round pace Zietz
lost control of the car in Harrison.
Directly ahead of him was the Flagler
car. Travelling at an ever increasing
speed, ZietE crashed into the Flagler
automobile, hurting its occupants right
and left and wrecking born cars. The
Flagler car was upset.
my brakes would not work" Zietz
explained 10 Captain Munro, Of the
Harrison police. He was locked up
when Munro found that he had no
license, and later was bailed out, under
the charge OF operating a car without a
license. Mrs. FIagler went home in the
care of a physician.
Mrs. Flagler, who is chairman Of the
educational committee Of the National
Committee on Prison Labor, in making
her report for the year said 'the igno-
rance and indifference OF the people OF
the country lies largely at the root OF
the evils of our present prison system
We are therefore conducting cam.
paign Of publicity, and will issue bull

Jersey Mans Car Turns Over
Crushing Him Under It.
fBy Telegraph to The Tribune. ]

Hackensack, n. j.. June 20.-F. II.
Glassford, of 149 Larch av., Bogota.
was killed instantly when his automo-
bile turned over on the Fort Lee road,
between Teaneck and Leonia. this
evening. Under Sheriff English and
County Physician Armstrong think
that front tire blew out when Glass
ford was travelling at a high rate OF
speed.
The auto landed in a ditch and
turned upside down after tearing UP
the road for a considerable distance.
An automobilist came on the wreck
and found Glassford's body pinned un-
der the car.
About the same time Carl Krieger,
another Bogota resident, died suddenly
In the Krieger bowling alleys. A dou-
BILE wedding was in progress at his
home this evening and news of his
death was kept from the family until
after the ceremony.

on the part Of Carranza which shows
his weakness, they say, and Is merely
spite work to antagonize villa. Villas
advance upon Mexico City has filled
local Carranzistas with dismay. They
assert Villa will be greatly disappoint-
ed IL he really counts on the whole
armed force of rebel territory accept
ing him as leader. CarranZa men say
General Obregon. who is moving from
Guaymas toward Guadalajara, is not
planning to Join Villas army, but that
he is acting under orders from Car
rama to get into Mexico City in ad-
vance of Villa and deprive the latter
of the fruits of his victory by taking
the capital first. They also say Cen
eral Pablo Gonzales, who has 25,000
men, is moving from Monterey with tho
same purpose in view and that he will
cooperate with Obregon.
General Villa appears to be undis-
turbed by to-day's developments in the
north, and General Angeles, who is ac-
companying Villas army on the march
to Mexico City. apparently is not
lamenting the loss of his Cabinet place.
AS matter of fact, Villa men declare
Carranza has no government and no
Cabinet, is without power to make or
unmake Cabinet ministers, and that his
own place in the rebel government has
been occupied by another As proof
they cite the fact that Villa last night
in telegram to The New York Tribune
and to-day in dispatches to his repre-
sentatives on the border signed himself
as general in chief" whereas here
tofore he has signed merely as COM
mander of the north.
Carranza may maintain the SEM
blance of civil government at Saltillo,
Villa men say, and so long as he does
not antagonize Villa too greatly he
may not be molested, but they look
upon his action to-day in removing An
geles and in ordering his forces to the
south as decidedly antagonistic and
likely to cause further trouble.
villa Is continuing his march to the
south, and tonight his army is pre-
pared to reopen the attack on Zacate-
cas-. The bad condition Of the railroad
below Torreon interfered somewhat
with the troop movement, but repairs
, were rushed, and reports received to-
night indicate that practically tho
whole army win engage in the assault
to be made probably tomorrow.

CONFESSES MURDER
AFTER SEVEN YEARS
Slayer in Same Prison with
Man Convicted of
the Crime.
tBy Telegraph to The Tribune. ]

Trenton, N. J., June 20.-Frank Burd,
who has spent the greater portion OF
the last sixteen of, the twenty-three
years Of his life in prison, sat in cell
in the penitentiary here and related
with apparent relish and with no snow
Of sorrow or remorse, details OF the
murder of Manning Riley, which he
confessed to committing.
In another cell not far away was
John Edward Schuyler, the man who
seven years and half ago was con-
victed of the murder, and who has sat
In a cell in the Hunterdon County Jail
and listened TO the hammers of car
penters as they erected the gallows on
which he expected to be hanged the
following morning.
Burd made his confession several
days ago, and yesterday the police sue
ceeded in verifying so many of the de-
tails he gave that it seems certain that
SCHUYLER, whose sentence was COM
nuted to life imprisonment, will be re-
leased.
Bravado probably furnished the mo-
tive for Burd's confession. Certainly
1t was not caused by any desire TO save
Schuyler or by the promptings Of con-
science.
Manning Riley. a prosperous farmer
of Hunterdon County, was found muir
dered on the Upper Parker road, that
county, on the morning Of January 20
1907. II was apparent that the muir
derAr h%d lain in wait for his victim
and beaten him TO death with a fence
paling.
II was recalled that Riley had given
SCHUYLER beating ten or eleven years
before. and this slight fact was the
basis Of the circusnstantial evidence on
which Schuyler was convicted and SEN
fenced to hang.
schuyler's counsel appealed in vain
for a new trial. While the 3oard Oh
pardons was considering his case Gov
ernor Stokes gave him reprieve. Thr
delay in his execution angered the c'tl-
zens of Hunterdon County. A delega-
ton OF business men, headed by the
Rev. Dr. Baker Smith, Presbyterian
clergyman, went 10 Trenton and in
sisted that Governor Stokes permit ,he

time.

The Tribune brings to an end to-day
the most successful and popular con-
test in its history by the announcement
Of the T69 prize winners in the Ben
Franklin Quiz.
To these S7,1J0 in awards will be dis
tributed
More than 10000 persons took part in
this contest. The answers received

Of letters from contestants during the
sixty-four days OF the ouis bore elo-
auent testimony of the interest, amuse-
ment and instruction derived from it.
TO The Tribune only remains the pleas
ant duty of sending the prizes to the

The popularity of the quiz is best
shown by simple statement of fact
that answers were sent in from people
living in almost every state Of the
Union and in Canada. France and
Honolulu.
Touch Of Heart Interest.
Two sent in correct solutions for AZ
out Of the 80 photographs, while the
greatest number missed by the lowest
prize winner was six.
There is a touch of genuine heart in
terest in the fact that Miss servis,
winner of the fourth prize, is engaged
and that she interprets her good tor
tune in g Quiz contest as the happies'
Of omens, for her futur life.
The winners of the first five prizes
Expressed themselves without excep-
tion as being completely surprised by
their success. Mr.. Young and Mr.. Pat
terson each submitted the same num-
Der OF correct answers, 40. But as the
former sent in fewer answers than the
latter-each contestant was allowed to
submit six for each pictograph-under
the rules of the contest the first prize
went to him.

WILSON SLAVES OFF
MEDIATION'S END
Villas Ascendancy Gives Presi-
dent New Hope of Bringing
Rebels to His Terms.
BY GEORGE eRIsWoLp HILL.

Niagara Falls, Ont, June 2O.--Presi-
dent Wilson, through the Argentine
Minister, has persuaded the A B c
mediators to continue their efforts TO
promote peace while he makes another
attempt TO induce the Constitutionalists
to become party to the conference un-
Ger the terms prescribed by the me-
diators, or, in the event OF failure of
that plan, TO give guarantees regarding
life, liberty and respect of property,
according TO the provisions of the Mex
lean constitution.
The President believes that with
Villa in control Of the Constitutional
lists 1t may be possible 70 induce him to
send delegates to the conference, while
at the same time he declares an armis-
tice and imposes no restrictions on the
subjects to be discussed by the media
tion conference. This expectation may
be confirmed by the news that Villa
has already appointed two delegates 10
this conference, although the dispatches
reaching here say nothing as to an
armistice. without which the medlators
will no more admit the representatives
Of Villa than they would those OF Car
rama
Hear carranza ls peposed.
News has reached the Mexicans here
that Villa has completely deposed Car
ranza and decreed that Felipe Angeles
be recognized as President of Mexico.
This is not an unexpected step, but IL
is one which seems TO dispose Of Car
rama for good. What may be the
views OF Angeles regarding participa-
ton In the peace conference is not
known.
There are some who believe that

TRANSFER THE ACTION
MAIN POINT At ISSUE
Arguments In Re Mittag VS.. the
Railway Were Heard BY
Judge A. R. Pfau

Whether the suit of Leo Mittag
Of Nicollet. who recently died, against
the Chicago and Northwestern Rail
way company for damages In the
sum of $500 on account of per.
sonal injuries can be removed from
the state district court to the federal
district court, was argued before
Judge A. X. Pfau of the state dis.
trict court this morning by Attor-
new c. o. Daley, on behalf of the
plaintiff, taking the view that il
could not, and Judge w. H. Somsen
OF the Winona law firm of Brown,
Abbott & Somsen, on behalf OF the
railway company, taking the view
that II could.
Mr.. Mittag was a section employe
on the railway company's line
through and near Nicollet. On De
cember IL motor car on. which he
was being conveyed from one place
to another jumped the track. He
was thrown off and injured. His
shoulder was broken and according to
his own claim he was internally
hurt He afterwards brought suit
against the company.
Brown, Abbott & Somsen recently
served notice of a motion to trans
fer the case from the Blue Earth
county district court to the United
States district court. Mr.. DALEY
took the position that as the plain
tiff was dead, he could not appear
for himself and as no executor or
administrator had been appointed
for him, no appearance could be
made for him, and hence the state
district court could not act on the
motion for a transfer. The twenty
day limit within which the railway
company can present to the court the
motion for a transfer to the federal
court will expire tomorrow.
Mr.. Mittag Is survived by his wife
and by one son, who lives In Ger

Ladies In Tennessee SquabbIe;
ederation Is Holding It's
Meeting
Especial to The Free press.l

Pulaski, Tenn. May 13.-The con
vention of the Tennessee Federation
of Women's Clubs began here today
for three days session. The prin.
cipal topic for discussion is a change
in the constitution OF the federation,
which, II adopted, would open the
doors to suffrage organizations.
The matter will be hotly contested
for a powerful effort is being made
to admit suffrage organizations into
the state and national federations,
move which is favored by the
more advanced thinkers OF the vari-
Gus clubs.
Those opposed to II are taking
the stand that the federation has
all to lose and the suffragists alf
to gain IL the proposed change is
favored. for the entrance of suffra-
gists into their clubs would drive
those opposed and many now neu-
trail women from their rosters.

Story Of the Play.
This play, while essentially a
comedy, contains much good phil
osophy and some pathos. A middle
aged doctrinaire, Mark Embury, who
was once crossed in love, but VINO
has at length decided It is his duty
to marry to beget an heir, adopts
from a founding home a very young
girl Little Britain" This young
girl after she has been educated for
a certain number of years according
TO an ideal system, will be in a
position to marry him and in due
course supply him with a paragon
worthy to carry on the traditions of
his family. But after the due lapse
of years our philosopher realizes that
he loves his ward madly. and when
at length he makes his proposal to
her, he does It SO delicately that she
imagines he is asking her TO marry
his scapegrace nephew, George Low.

who is her ideal. even as she is his.
This is a difficult situation. for the
doctrinaire, but he rises to 1t nobly.
All Mankato should see how, Friday,

Sentiment - Wholesome.
The sentiment in this play is all
airy and wholesome. Mankato thea
