Hazel Brown, who Sept. ~ observed
her ,21st birthday, gave the Brunswick
and Massachusetts officers consider
able troublea the latter part Of the
week. Friday evening Chief of Police
Stetson received a call from Boston,
stating that Hazel, who. is a state

wards located her that night at the
house Of Samuel French on the Great
Island road. Mr.. and Mrs. French
agreed to turn the girl over to the
officers in the morning, provided that
she could remain with them over
night. Several hours later Chief Stet-
son was notified that the girl had run
away. The chief replied that he was
aware Of that fact as grandson Of

through a window. The girl did not 60

CAR HITS PILLAR, II HURT
Second Accident of the Kind Since Sat-
urday on Third Avenue Line.

For the second time since Saturday
Third Avenue surface car last night
jumped the track and crashed into an
al pillar. The accident occurred at
10th Street, and eleven persons were
injured. Six were sent to hospitals.
Saturdays crash occurred at lOfth
Street, and fifteen were hurt.
James Mahan, motorman, of 339 East
Sixty-ninth Street, ran his car across
10th Street and had reached the north
crossing when the forward truck left
the rails. Ploughing along the cobble-
stones the car travelled twenty-five feet
before crashing into the 81" pillar.
There were about thirty passengers,
and when the crash came men, women
and children were piled in the middle
OF the aisle. The motorman was thrown
through the windshield and crushed
against the pillar.
Reserves from the East l04th Street
station arrived before Patrolmen Flynn
and Noar could get the passengers from
the car. Three ambulance surgeons
two from the Harlem Hospital and one
from the Reception Hospital-frst
looked after the six seriously hurt, and
then worked for more than an hour
patching up those who refused TO go TO
the hospital.
The police were unable TO determine
what caused the car 10 leave the rails.
A report that boys had placed stones
and spikes on the track could not be
verified

GERMANS STRIVING
TO S00THE WILSON
Gerard Sees Won Jagow-Then
Friendly Efforts Are Told.

Berlin, Sept. 13 (via London, Sept.
l4D.-The American Ambassador, Mr..
Gerard, had long conversation last
evening with Herr Won Jagow, Minister
Of Foreign Affairs. The discussion did
not specifically concern the submarine
question, nor was il evoked by any new
developments in connection with that
subject, but IL was indicated after the
conference that both the Imperial
Chancellor and the Foreign Minister
were endeavoring TO improve German
American relations.
Well informed persons say the diplo-
matte and military leaders are doing
their utmost to prevent recurrence
of incidents in the submarine cam
paign which have clouded those rea-
tions, and to eliminate as far as posi-
BILE the chances of torpedoing ships
under conditions to which the United
States objects.
1t is pointed out, however, that they
are working under difficulties, particu-
larly in view of the ambition of naval
officers and public opinion, which is
proud of the submarine achievements
and is quick to protest against any
open indication Of a backdown.
The reflex Of this attitude can be
seen in the press, in which an acri-
monious tone toward America has been
conspicuously absent of late. This is
shown particularly in the comment on
the Dumba incident.

fresh evidence Of il as indicating that
the latest raid is any more serious than
previous attacks. This view Is borne
out by one dispatch which minimizes
the effects Of the raid and corroborates
the official announcements.
All England Aroused.
All England, however, is awakening
70 the increasing seriousness of these
raids, and in compliance with the de-
mand for more effective protection the

appointment Of Admiral Sir Percy VI.

merry practice and one of the foremost
inventors in the British navy, 20 take
charge Of the aerial defences of Lon

each successive raid, there is very little
disposition left, as in the early days, to
sncer at the inefectiveness of the Yep

prisal. and The Globe" has taken the
lead in the cry for action. 1t urges
that a public meeting be held TO force

Why Can't a Gun Pick Off
a Zeppelin? London Wonders

London, Sept. 14.-"The Daily Chron-
icle" says editorially:
THE public will welcome the an
nouncement that Admiral Sir Percy
Scott has been appointed to take charge
of the whole service OF anti-aircraft
guns for the defence of London against
Zeppelins. We have been fortunate 50
far in escaping any important damage
from material or military point Of
view on the occasion Of recent Yep
pelin visits, but the man in the street,
without wishing TO murmur unduly
against those in authority, is inclined
to ask why Zeppelns have been equally
fortunate.
Having seen how readily an airship
at great height can be picked out by
a searchight, he wonders why it can
not be picked off by a gun, bearing in
mind the size of the target and the
fact that its distance, though great. is
short compared to those at which naval
actions are fought. OF course, only a
very special gun has the requisite YER
tical range, but it exists and there is
no reason why we should not have
enough of it,"
