Accidents are becoming quite num-
erous on the Shoshone Falls grade.
and it stands in hand for everyone
who has occasion TO use the grade to
use every precaution in going up or
down the same. T. c. Shultz, of
Glenns Ferry, accompanied by his
wife and child and two gentlemen
from the same place, were descending
the grade on this side of the river on
Monday afternoon. when the brakes
on the car refused to respond.
Realizing il was beyond control.
Schultz turned the car against the
canyon wall while going at the rate OF
about IS miles an hour Mrs. Schultz
and the daughter were thrown out
and the great force of the impact
rolled the machine violently over,
completely demolishing it, The ma
chine rolled completely over Mrs.
Schultz and her daughter. Mr..
Schultz had no time to escape and re-
ceived a broken collar bone, three
broken ribs on the left side and seri-
Gus injuries to his chest and back.
His presence of mind in turning the
machine against the wall saved the
party from pitching over a steep
grade to a drop of many feet upon
boulders below or continuing at a
wild speed down the grade and plung-
ing into the river at sharp turn.
The injured parties were taken TO
Twin Falls for medical attention and
later reports state that Mr.. Schultz
is more seriously injured than at
first thought

lost control of the machine. 1t plung-
ed down the steep grade and into the
river, where It was entirely submerg-
ed several feet from the shore. Math-
ews had no time to escape and went
In with the car. A number of young
men who had been in bathing were
nearby and Claude Smithon. one OF
the number. sprang into the water
and rescued Mathews as he was sink

day, Mr.. Gilmore said:
When the Federal League first en-
tered the field. we expected to recog-
nize everything about baseball con-
tracts except the reserve clause. My

The spectacular advance among the

The steel stocks were the favorites.
Evidences of improvement in trade

Tuesday In this squanble between ex-

over the affairs OF the club. he met

representatives were concerned, they
intended to recognize the newly ap-
pointed business manager, as they had
received telegTaphic instructions from

nothing. or make no statement OF the

to do all business through Mr.. VIII
son. Consequently this course was
Followed when the days business was
brought to a close.
Later in the afternoon word was
received that Secretary Bannwart
would arrive in Hartford ON the late
train from Providence, via Willtman-

secretary to make the next move. Mr..
MacKinnon declares that he Is ready
to fight the case to a finish, IL he does
not receive the money that he claims
to be due him for salary as business
manager of the Hartford club. I'm

matters by some sort OF compromise.

american manufacturers Of motor
truck parts should prepare now for
the end OF the war Is the statennent
OF an ofilcer OF the be1iigerent nations
who Is now In this country on bust
ness connected with the shipment OF
munitions and motor trucks. The
answer was made TO a question con-
corning the effect the end OF the war
should have ON American truck max
ers, many of whom have been busy In
recent months with war orders In
explanation OF his statement the on
Ger continued.
Here in America motor trucks are
turned out in such great quantities
that the making OF separate units OF
construction such as axles. motors
and transmissions has become an In
dustry in itself The business has
developed to such an extent that the
truck manufacturer need not make
all these parts for himself. In Europe,
however, the tendency has not been
that way. Every manufacturer OF
motor trucks has made as many of
the parts that entered into his truck
as he could. As a consequence the
parts business In Europe has never
reached the prominence 1t has In the
United States.
but with the end of the war there
will be a tremendous demand for
trucks in every European country and
many manufacturers in France. Ger
many. Austria and England who have
heretofore made the entire truck will,
II they wish to hold their trade in
their own countries, be forced to buy
motor and axle units outside and be-
come to a large extent assemblies.
There is where American parts max
ers will come in. have outlined this
situation to several makers of internal
gear drive axles already,as that is the
type OF motor truck rear axle that is
most popular in continental Europe.
