SOUP P0|S0NER
TRYING TO CAUSE
REIGN OF TERROR
JEAN CRONES AND FELLOW An
ARcHIsrs At WORK TO OVER
TURN GOVERNMENT.

Chicago, Feb. 1s. Following the
publication this morning in New York
newspaper of another letter believed
to have been written by Jean Crones,
former chef at the University club Of
Chicago, local police ofiicials put on
the New York authorities the burden
Of responsibility for Crones' arrest.
Crones Is charged with putting poison
in the soup served at the Mundelein
banquet.
The federal government operatives
here today continued to assist local
authorities in tracing reports that the
poisoning was the result of an anti
clerical plot Of nation wide proper
TONS It was learned today that secret
service agents received warning OF
such conspiracy more than three
months ago. At that time 1t was re-
ported that anarchistic leaders had
been holding secret meetings at Salida,
Colo, discussing plans for reign Of
terror" to be created throughout the
United States by the destruction of
churches and public buildings. 1t was
reported that the new $2,500,0O0 FED
eral building at Denver, Colo, was
among those slated for destruction.
Letters from Salida, Colo, were found
among Crones' belongings.

Of poisoning the soup at a dinner OF
Catholic clergymen and laymen in that

SHOOTING AND POISON CASE
.PROBED BY BOSTON POLICE
Doctor, Shot by Another After
Latter'S FianCee Died,
May Get Well

BOSTON, July 20.-Physicians attend
ing DR.. Wilfred z. Harris, president of
the Massachusetts College of Osteo-
pathy, said today that he had slight
chance to recover from the three bullet
wounds inflicted Tuesday by DR.. Ed
ridge d. Atwood. Meanwhile the police
are endeavoring to lear up the mystery
of the death by poisoning of DR.. Celia
Adams, DIR. AtwOods fiancee, a few
hours before the shooting of Dr. Harris.
The autopsy failed to reveal when,
where and under what circumstances
this poison was received
DIR. Atwood told the police he left
Miss Adams about IL o'clock Monday
night at the Park Street subway sta
ton and that he first learned the next
morning that she had been found I'M
conscious in her office. 1t was said
today by the police that she regained
consciousness for a moment and made
several attempts to speak to a physician
who asked her If she had taken poison.
She did not reply but nodded her head.
An analysis Of the young woman's
organs was being made today by a
chemist to determine the nature of the
poison that caused her death. DR.. At
wood is in Jail on charge of assault
with intent to kill.

DEATHS IN
"a HOURS FROM PLAGUE
InfantiIe Paralysis Raging in
New York, With Total of
487 Victims
(By Associated Press. }

NEW YORK, July 2O.-On only one
day since the inception of the epidemic
OF infantile paralysis, on June &c, have
more fatalities from the disease &C.
Cured than in the last twenty-four
hours. During this period the plague
killed thirty-one children and there were
119 new cases reported in the five bor-
oughs Of New York City.
The latest figures show that the NOR
tally rate still is slightly less than 20
per cent. Since the beginning of the
epidemic there have been 4S7 deaths and
4,446 cases.
Reports today from cities and towns
surroundeding New York show that To-
cal health authorities are not inclined
to accept health certificates given to
children who leave this city as adequate
protection against the spread of infan-
tile paralysis. The state health Depart
ment has taken this ground and has
commended that all children from New
York City under 5 years of age arriving
in upstate communities be kept under
observation for two weeks Tee total
number of cases of the disease in New
York state outside of this city was Of
ficially reported last night as 161.
Many communities in the states adj
joining New York already have adopted
a similar quarantine against children
from this city, while some have absolute
ly excluded them.
Physicians are watching with interest
the trial of a new serum which is being
administered to patients at two hos
pitfalls here No official report has been
made regarding this treatment, and
physicians say 1t is too early to judge
of its effectiveness. The serum Is de-
veloped from blood of patients who
have recovered from infantile paraly-
sis. A recent statement regarding this
method made by Dr. Simon Flexner, Of
the Rockefeller institute, who discovered
a serum for spinal meningitis, called
attention to the fact that monkeys are
the only animals that seem capable of
yielding an immune serum and the mon
key is not a practicable animal from
which to obtain supplies.

GERMAN U-BOAT PREPARES
FOR DASH into OPEN SEA
Screen of Tugs and BargeS
Drawn About Craft in
Baltimore Harbor


BALTIMORE, July 20.-Prepared to
leave port at any moment Captain Paul
Koenig. commander of the German mer-
chant submarine Deutschland, put on
his uniform today for the first time
since he landed here eleven days ago
and for several hours this morning
studied the charts of the Patapsco river
and Chesapeake bay with Captain Fred
erick Hinsh, commander of the North
German Lloyd liner Neckar.
When Captain Koenig went back
aboard the undersea liner he took with
him a duplicate manifest of the ships
cargo. Another copy was ready to be
taken to the custom house. Captain
Koenig said he would not leave his ship
again and indicated an early departure,
but said nothing that would give an
idea just when the submersible would
leave.
1t was understood the Deutschland's
engines and submerging machinery had
been given a final. test and were found
to be in perfect condition.
At dawn today the screen of tugs and
barges was drawn about the submarine
merchantmen Deutschland, indicating
that she would not leave here for sever
al hours at least. To all appearances
she was ready to start on her return
voyage to Germany last night This
morning, just before she was hidden
from view, 1t was observed that she
was submerged to about the same depth
as when she came into this port with a
full cargo.
All through the night the tug Tim
Minis played it's searchlight ceaselessly
over land and water, practically cover
ing all approaches to the pier where
the Deutschland is berthed.
Toward midnight the vigilance of the
German guards about the pier tighten
ed. Several launches were found how
erIng about the waters near the sub
marine, and while the Timmons threw
its searchlight beams upon the strange
craft, the night superintendent of the
Eastern Forwarding company, local
agents Of the submarines owners,
jumped into a motor boat and made a
long tour of the waters about the pier
to inspect the mysterious visitors.

COOL-HEADED WORK OF
MRS. KENDALL PRAISED
C. C. Brantley Tells of Wreck
of u. S, Gums Automobile
by Train

C. c. Brantly, editor OF the Valdosta
Times, who is in Atlanta to attend the
meeting of the board Of trustees Of the
state sanitarium, was a passenger on
the Georgia railway train. No. Z, which
struck the automobile of u. S. Gum
one mile from Charlottesville Wednes-
day afternoon, killing two people and
seriously injuring the other three occu-
pants of the car.
Mr.. Brantly spoke in glowing terms
of the GOODNESS and possession that an
Atlanta woman, a Mrs. Kendall, who
was a passenger on the train at the
time. and who left the train at Kirk
wood, displayed in caring for the injured
passengers of the automobile.
1--WE were all so appalled, at such a
frightful accident" Mr.. Brantly said
that none of us seemed to be able to
collect our senses except Mrs. Kendall
She is certainly a remarkably COOL
headed woman, and her assistance and
help to the injured was wonderful.
There were three people on the back
seat of the automobile, and three
in the front. Miss May Caldwell, a
beautiful eighteen-year-old girl, was in
the left seat of the rear, and between
her and Mrs. Gum, who was on the
right, was little four-year-old Gladys
Gum. The road crosses the tracks of
the Georgia railway about a half mile
from the station and, with Mr.. Gum
driving, the train struck the car as it
was attempting to cross the tracks.
The pilot of the locomotive was driven
against the rear left-hand side of the
car with terrific force, for the train was
running at a rate of forty miles an hour,
and the car was going very slowly. in
response to an old negro mans warning
that a train was approaching. Miss
Caldwell was mangled almost beyond
recognition, dying a few minutes after
we carried her to the train. We hurried
from the train, and quickly running
back to the scene of the accident, found
Mrs. Gum, one arm broken and the
other crushed, vainly trying to pick
up her unconscious little girl.
Mrs. Kendall gathered the little child
up, and at the same time leading the
frantic mother, was helped to the train.
The little girl died in Mrs. KendalTs
arms few minutes afterwards.
'Mr. Gum, who was driving, had his
shoulder crushed, and his other little
girl, whom the dispatches have not
mentioned, was injured also. 1 think
that she was next to her father on the
front seat, and a little negro boy was
on the outside. lie was unhurt"
Mr.. Brantly says that when the train
reached the station, which was in sight
Of the accident there were 200 people
in tears over the disaster, hoping for the
best and yet fearing the worst.
