''he reached down to stop, as supposed"
He had made a sharp turn from the
garage driveway only LIS feet from the
track. and was just getting his car going.
His statement admits that he did not look
at all. This admission, the immediate
circumstances as to distances and sur
roundings, the entire absence of any ap-
parent reason why the other occupants
should think it necessary to look for him,
his statement tho he was on intermediate
speed as he approached the track, and
the statement Of the motorman that he
saw him reach down, all indicate that he
was busily engrossed in getting his au-
tomobile under way, and that he took no
notice whatever Of the railroad track un-
til he ran directly in front Of the car.
when he probably stalled his machine.
We do not think the reverse direction in
which the car was running contributed in
any way to the accident. Whether the
motorman could have stopped his car in
season to have avoided the collision If
he had sand with him, we cannot say.
Where a car is being run over a slippery
rail It should be equipped for such an
emergency at all time.

New York, April 13.-The Tribune this

We are for Col Roosevelt because

VIII stir the conscience of the people as
he will stir it. No one else will inspire

which the Republican party must make

SO effective an antithesis to Wilson as
he. II we are Americans, real Ameri-
cans, the Colonel is our man. While
timid politicians were consulting the
census books and counting the German
vote he spoke and the country hearkened.
He Is the leader in the fight for Ameri-
canism, and we don't believe in chang
ing leaders when we are going to the
front.
I'VE are for Col. Roosevelt in spite
of the fact that We were against him
four years ago. No one fought him
harder than we. No one will fight harder
for him. 1t has not been easy to put
aside our pride, our sense of resentment
at what occurred in 1872, and the hundred
other things that tend to keep alive
divisions. But We have put them aside
and are putting them aside because we
feel that they have no place in a crisis
like this. We come opt for Col. Roose-
welt as a Republican newspaper, intend
ing to remain Republican. and we feel
that in doing so We are doing the best
thing not only for the nation, but for
the Republican party"

Mexieans Use Cyanide
To Kill U. 5. Troops
Special to The Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald.
Fl Paso. Tex, April I2.-cy-
anide of potassium, one of the
deadliest of poisons, was found in
many Of the small streams in the
Sierra Madre when the Ameri-
can forces first marched through
that section on the hunt for Pan
cho Villa and his bandits.
/ Carcasses of dead animals had
also been dragged into many of
the water courses to contaminate
the supply.
This information was con-
firmed today by a chemist who
accompanied the American troops
on their expedition for the pur-
pose of analyzing the water.
The cyanide of potassium was
found in one stream in such
amount as to have killed every
man in the expedition if the SOL
diers had drunk of the water be-
fore an analysis had been made.
In several other places traces
of the poison were located.
