FRED JEANS TROUBLES
Roller Polo King Had Transferred All His Property to His Wife Whose Love He Feared Was Lost.

Another chapter in the domestic troubles of Fred Jean, the former roller polo king who is missing from his Hartford home, Is added by his friends, who are acquainted with his misfortunes.
 Some time ago Jean, who was en- ployed as tester by the Pope Hart ford autoombils company, ran down @ boy on Park street in Hartford
 He was tried in the superior court and was heavily fined but the fact that he was not forced to go to jail is considered evidence that the court believed there were extenuating cir cumstances. Previous to his arrest, Jean, it is said, believing that his property might be attached in civil suit by the parents of the boy he had run down, transferred all his pos sessions to his wife. It is claimed that Mrs. Jean then assumed the lead ership in their domestic affairs through the prestige of having all the property in her name.
 Jean, it is claimed, suspected that he had lost his wifes love and affec- ton and later is said to have be- come convinced that this was so. His domestic life being unhappy, he de- cided to leave home and his present residence is known only to @ select few who refuse to divulge the in formation.
 Local friends who were very close to the former polo player say he transferred property valued at from SIP, ,0O0 to $15, 900 to Mrs Jean. For years he has been the kingpin of the roller polo game and his salary was always between $80 and $100 a week. Being of a frugal and conservative disposition, he saved his salary and invested in real estate and jewelry. The fact that he had unwsely dis posed of his lifes savings is thought to have so affected him that he de- cided to leave home.

FOUR LOCOMOTIVES
 IN TANGLED MASS
Fog and Disobedience of Orders Held Responsible For Freight Wreck
 At PIainyiIIe.
Especial to the Herald ]

FlalnV1lle, Sept. 1S.-F'iremen and other members of the crews narrowly escaped death by jumping from their posts and rolling down steep em- bankment to safety at an early hour this morning when two freight trains collided at the water tank a short dis tance north of the passenger station That the men were not injured is con- Sidered remarkable as the heavy en- zines came together with great force and a number of cars on one of the trains were piled in a tangled mass from the impact. The engineers on the four lOcOm Otives involved re- mained at the throttles and all were unhurt although the giant moguls which they were operating were badly damaged.
 Fog and failure to live up to in- structions are both blamed for the wreck. It is said that the north bound train had been ordered to remain on the siding near Broad street until passed by the freight going towards New Haven. Misjudging the time of the arrival of the train going south, Engineer James Leg uncoupled the two locom otives from his train, Wn1Ch was OH the SlO1nS, ana tan them to the water tank to refill the boilers. In the meantime the south bound train, which was made up of seventy-six cars and two en- zines, put in it's appearance. Engineer Lewis Whitney, who was at the throt- tie of the forward locomotive, could not see the engines at the water tank until his train was too close to avoid the crash. There is a grade at this point and even the air brakes failed to bring the heavy train to stop before the engines came together.
 Five of the cars on the south bound train were thrown from the tracks and were crushed like egg shells. The wrecking crew spent considerable time this morning removing them from the tracks. They were so badly smashed that they were thrown down the embankm ent, where it is likely they will be burned as it is not be- lieved they can be repaired. The pi- lots on two of the locomotives were badly damaged but the engines were removed from the scene of the wreck under their own steam.
