SUBWAY WHEELS
 HALTED BY ACCIDENT
Seven Hundred Persons Held
 In Darkened Tunnel When Blowout Causes Fire And Smoke - Panic Follows.
City Faces Transportation Blockade - Surface and Ele- vated Cars Overloaded - One Woman Is Killed.

NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-The worst accident in the ten years history of the New York subway was caused to- day by short circuited cable Seven hundred passengers on two stalled trains were stricken panic ih the darkened tubes by the dense smoke and acrid fumes. In the struggle to escape 200 were injured only one woman fatally Police and tiremen made heroic rescues Many were over come and unconscious when rescued.
 As a result of the accident the city tonight faces a transportation block ade without parallel in it's history. It was not until late that a wheel again turned in the subway and then only limited local service was in operation. Hundreds of thousands of passengers ordinarily carried in the subway were diverted to surface and elevated cars, neither of which was able to accommodate the tremendous crowds. It is feared a normal number of trains will not be operating in the subway tomorrow and a repetition of todays congestion is probably.
 The accident occurred between Fity-Fifth and Fifty-Ninth street stations. Virtually the entire fire and ambuance service of Manhattan Island was called out soon after the accident. The two trains which had been stalled were filled with the fumes of burning rubber This grew unbearable and it took litte to start a panic in the darkness.

 BIG TALK
Senator Lodge of Foreign Re lations Committee Says Is Too Late to Do Anything In Merico But Intervene.
Says Orderly Government In Republic is Impossible In Bitter Attack on President s Policy Toward Republic.

WASHINGTON, Jan. G.-Criucism of the administration Mexican poll cy caused sharp debate in the senate during which Senator Lodge of the foreign relations commission declared it "all but too late to adopt any poli- cy toward Mexico other than military occupation" and characterized the hope of an orderly government in Mexico "an impossible dream Sen .ator Stone, chairman of the committee who defended the president and Sen ator Borah joined the discussion and it is indicated that there will be a general airing of views on the Mexi- can situation soon.
 Senator Lodge who is the ranking Republican member of the commis- sion reviewed the history of the Mexican disturbances and criticized the presidents policy toward Huerta which, he said, was based on per sonal animosty. The failure of the president to mention Mexico in his last message indicated, he said, that he had no policy to advance now that Huerta was busted and revolt and tumult resigned across the border
 When he quoted former President Roosevelt's article attacking the ad- ministration policy, mentioning the alleged religious prosecuting in Mex leo Senator Stone heatetly declared. that it is detestable that the former president of the United States. and his coadjutor upon the floor should attempt to incite religious passions in considering our foreign affairs
 "I would like to see a policy estab- lished" Senator Borah said, whether Democratic or Republican that when man said in a foreign city that he is an American that 1t will be known his life and his rights will be fully protected"

American Ship Used as
Shield by Submarine
By Associated Press

Liverpool, July 13.-How an Amer
lean ship is alleged to have been used
as a shield by German submarine
before sinking another vessel is re-
lated by the members of the crew of
the American bark Normandy which
has arrived here from Gulfport, Miss.
The story is that the Normandy was
stopped by a German submarine sixty
miles southwest of Tuskard Rock, off
the southeast coast of Ireland Friday
night The captain was called aboard
the submarine, where his papers were
examined and found to show that the
ship was chartered by an American
firm January 5.
The captain of the bark, 1t was as
serted, was allowed to return to the
Normandy, but under threat that his
ship would be destroyed unless he
obeyed orders. These orders, 1t was
stated, were that he was to act as a
shield for the submarine, which lay
around the side of the bark, hiding
itself from an approaching vessel.
This vessel proved to be the Russian
steamer Leo. Presently the sub
marine submerged and proceeded
around the bow of the Normandy so
the story went, and ten minutes later
the crew of the Normandy saw the Leo
blown up.
Twenty-Five persons were on board,
of whom IL were drowned.

Bryan Gives Explanation
of Unnecessary Risk"

Hermosa Beach, Cal, July 13. -
William ]. Bryan, former Secretary of
State, who is spending q brief vacation
here with his son, issued a statement
to-day in explanation of what he
meant by unnecessary risk" contained
in his comment in connection with the
last German note. He said:
ANY traveller takes an unnecessary
risk when he goes into the war zone
on belligerent ship knowing that it
is subject to attack by submarine. A
traveller also takes unnecessary risks
when he rides on a neutral ship carry
ing ammunition.
'I believe that our Government
would be justified in separating pas
sengers from ammunition. but until
this is done, American travellers would
be justified in refusing to take pas
sage on a belligerent ship or q neutral
ship carrying ammunition.
''If patriotism requires man to
risk his life for his country when his
country is engaged In war 1t would
seem to be patriotic for citizen to
avoid risks that might involve his
country in war"

PEN|VSY To IMPROVE
SHOPS At CRESSON
p P. R. R. Planning to Build Annex
to Repair Shops as Result of
Interstate Commerce

Cresson, Pa, July l2. = Because of
the fact that the Interstate Commerce
Commission has issued an order pro-
hibiting the hauling of defective cars
through tunnels, the Pennsylvania
Railroad, il is reported. has decided to
enlarge and extensively improve its re-
pair shops in Cresson. No official state
ment could be obtained and the report
is unconhrmed. However. railroad men
give much credence to the story.
There are few places along this sec
tion of the Pittsburgh Division where
cars can be repaired. Often times break
Gowns occur in this part of the noun
tain, but there was no great inconveni-
ence as Ions as the cars could be taken
on east. through the Gallitzin tunnel.
10 Altoona or other points where there
are shops.
Since the new ruling of the commits
sion. however, 1t is necessary for the
Pennsy TO provide more and bigger re-
pair shops. Cresson has been selected
as the point for this kind of work on
this part OF the division, il is said:
The new shops will be built as an ad-
dition to the original shop building, il
is reported. The company owns consid-
cradle ground in the vicinity of the
present shops and has plenty of space
on which to erect the new plant. The
old shops are only equipped TO repair
wooden cars. The new plant will re-
pair both steel and frame rolling stock.
