TENNESSEE CARRIES
REFUGEES TO EGYPT
Permission Given by Authorities
in Turkey Is Approved by
American Ambassador

Washington, d. c., Dec. 2S.-The
cruiser Tennessee, with the permission
of the Turkish government and at the
request of American Ambassador Nor
genthau, is transporting 500 refugees
of various nationalities from Jaffa,
Syria, to Alexandria, Egypt.
Captain Decker, OF the Tennessee,
reported the departure of his vessel
from Jaffa in message filed last
night and received to-day at the Navy
Department. Secretary Daniels sum
married the report in this statement:
The refugees were unable to get
passage from Jaffa by any other
means. Captain Decker states that his
action was taken at the request from
the consuls, which requests, approved
by the American Ambassador to Tur-
key had been made after permission
had been given by the Turkish author
tiles.
No reply came to-day, however,
from either Captain Decker or Cap
tain Oman. of the North Carolina, to
the request for full information re-
garding the unofficial report that an
unnamed American warship had
threatened to lombard Tripoli, when a
mob attacked departing foreigners.

las forces have suspended their at
tacks on Ebano, near Tampico, and
have concentrated their attack on the
seaport of TuXpam. where fighting is
in progress to-day according to ad-
vices to the State apartment.
Reports issued earlier to-day by the

patches to the State Department from
the Brazilian minister in Mexico City
who yesterday had conference with
Gutierrez.
The general situation as reflected in
official dispatches was viewed as not
altogether encouraging. Friction is
regarded as apparent between the
Zapata element and the Gutierrez-Vil-

MRS. MITCHELL'S STORY OF WRECK
All Night Ride From Ash bury Park to Scene Where Daughter Met Tragic End

One of the most dramatic recfta1s of the wreck is that by Mrs. Henry Nit cheIl. who lies in a serious condition at her home, 1,114 Park avenue to- day, suffering from severe shock and possible internal injury
 Mrs. Mitchell with Mrs Anna Hen keIs and her son, Charles Henlxels, were sitting on the second seat of the tll-fated car. She says that upon the return trip the children were singing even as the cars approached at high speeds upon the same track, nearly quarter of a city block distant from each other. So great was the rate at ter sighting each other it was 1mpos- sible for the motormen to stop the cars As those in the the pfcnic-car saw the express car approaching the singing ceased and panic ensued. There were frightful struggles by others back from their impluse. and others Jumping. Mrs. Mitchell was among those who jumped from the car just before the crash. She did not regain consciousness until some time afterwards She insisted upon being taken home. An unknown mo- torist took her home. She is today in the care of her physician
 Mrs. NTitcheu asserts the motorman got down from his platform at the signal box and switched off the lights several times At each turn of the handle the lights glowed dinnly. Fi- nalIy he looked at the box for the last time and apparently believed the, line was clear. There were eight chill dren seated on the first seat behind him as he swung the controller fully around and made all speed for the next switch. That the motorTnan was undecided as to the condition of the track was plainly witnessed by Mrs. Mitchell and Mrs. Henkels, who spoke to. each other of the condition of the, signals and the speed maintained. The motorman finally decided, how ever, to attempt the trip and threw on full speed. A few minutes later the crash came.
