Waite as saying. that it would be ad-
visable to have the embalming fluid

Potter was brought TO the district
attorneys office and questioned to-
day. He made a sweeping denial of
everything Waite told Mr.. Swami re-
garding him.
The use of arsenic in embalming
fluid is against the law in New York
State and Kane several days ago was
quoted as saying that no arsenic was
used in embalming MI. Peck's body.
From this feature of Waite's revela-
tions the authorities has concluded
that at one time he was preparing for
a plea of not guilty in the event of his
arrest for the murder. The rest of
the young dentists confession, how
ever, has convinced the district attor-
ney that he is getting ready to de-
fend himself on plea of insanity.

in both cases with doses of poisonous
drugs. In committing these acts,
Waite declared that he was under the
evil influence of a force which he per-

Plans for the distribution of the

The distribution of over a million to
private individuals. Every tree plant
cd this Spring will be supplied by the
Departments own nurseries.

According to Fritzele and De Ray.
the first section stopped five minutes
after it left Amherst and was Just
picking up speed again when the first
crash came. Two minutes later they
said. the second occurred.
Train Sc was known as the Pitts
burgh- Baltimore Buffalo Limited. 1t
was due in Cleveland at 4.O5 this
morning.
The train carried sleeping coaches
from Chicago to Pittsburgh and Buff
talo and took on sleeper at Cleve-
land from Buffalo.
1t carried diner from Chicago to
Pittsburgh, and was known as one of
the finest trains on the New York
Central lines.
The flyer was split in two sections
to-day because of unusually heavy
traffic and this splitting of the train
indirectly caused the wreck.
Gives Story of Wreck
d. c. Moon, general manager of the
New York Central lines gives this
story of the wreck as it was given
his subordinates on the road at 8
o'clock:
Train No. S6. eastbound, was trav-
cling in two sections.
The engineer of the first section
was stopped at Amherst by a signal
don't know just how.
The second section of Sc should
have stopped because of the automatic
signal or by the signal of a fiagman
on the first section.
The second section ran into the
end coach of the first section. The
wreckage from both sections went
over onto the westbOund high speed
track.
The rear car of the first section
was a coach from Chicago to Pitts
burgh. 1t had forty passengers, four of
whom were killed. l don't know how
many were injured.
The next car ahead of the coach
was club Pullman car. There was
nobody in this car but porter and a
mail clerk.
These two are missing. The cars
ahead of the coach and club car were
sleepers. Nobody in them was hurt.
The Twentieth Century was deraiI-
ed, but nobody on it was injured
L have ordered an investigation at
once.
II don't think any of the crew was
hurt. but so far we have not got track
of the engineer of the second sec
