CHILD DARTS in
FRONT OF FAST
MOVING J|TNEY

About six o'clock last evening while
little Louis Almesy, aged 9, of 145
Chruch street, was watching the pa
rade forming on Barnum avenue he
became so excited that he ran in front
of a jitney bus, operated by Alfred
Ward, of 432 State street, and was
knocked down. One of the wheels of
the machine passed over the little fell
lows abdomen, inf1icting possible in
ternal injuries while his face and head
are badly lacerated.
According to witnesses of the acci-
dent the driver of the jitney is. en-
tirely blameless in the affair. The
child was darting about the crowd in
company with many other children,
and in his excitement ran into rather
than ran in front Of the machine.
Ward iammed on his emergency
brakes, but it was impossible to avoid
hitting the child

CUP
NETS S17,5OD
FOR RED CROSS


Kaiser Wilhelm's gold cup, which
was awarded to Wilson Marshall in
1906 for winning the. race across the
Atlantic ocean in his schooner At
lantic, was auctioned off at a big box
ing carnival given in Madison Square
Garden, New York, last night for BEN
eft of the Red Cross, and brought the
sum of 1880. 1t was purchased by
Richard Doggett, Joseph Marone,
John Walters and others, each pur-
chaser putting it again at auction. Be-
fore the sale is ended it is expected
$4,000 will have been realized.
Wilson Marshall, who lives at Ma
rina Park in this city, won the cup
in 1905, and it was presented to him
by the Kaiser with much ceremony at
Kiel. When the Red Cross drive was
commenced few days ago Marshall
announced his intention of donating
it to the Red Cross. 1t is of gold, and
has a bullion value of about $1,000.

There has been no change in
the situation on the battle
fields of northern France. Both
sides continue their raiding
operations, with the Germans
paying most attention to the
line between the Somme and
Albert. Elsewhere on the
front between Ypres and
Rheims British and French pa
trolls have captured prisoners.
The weather has changed for the
worse and rain is reported falling gen
orally on the Somme and Picardy
fronts. This imposes additional hard
ships on the Germans, who occupy the
shell torn lowlands while the Allies
hold the high ground, most of which
is unscarred by war. If the Germans
were not prepared to attack when the
weather was most favorable, it is noy
likely that they will essay new often
sive while rain and mud retard their
movements.
The sector northwest of Toul now is
all American. The gunners are Amer
ican, the men in the trenches are
Americans, and over their heads now
fly Americans with "a distinctive insig-

General Burleson today in their con-

by the post Office department in treat
ment Of publications presented to the
senate today by Senator Poindexter
of Washington, charged that the ad-
ministration had played for and
against different newspapers and

was directly responsible.

among them the Hearst newspapers
while embarrassing those that have
made honest criticism of the conduct
of the war.

The Cuban minister to Mexico, DR..
Ezequiel Garcia Ensenat, has not yet
arrived in Mexico City, having been
appointed only recently. During the
interval DR.. Luis Santamarisy Calvo
has been acting as charge. 1t was re-
ported recently that he would leave
for Cuba on vacation and would re-
turn with the new minister.
The Mexican charge in Havana is
Alberto C.. Franco.
The recall of the Mexican repre-
sentative to Cuba and the suspending
for an indefinite time of the sending
of a new representative is explained
officially as for the fact that because
of the war in which Cuba is involved,
that government has been obliged to
dictate measures that affect the in
terests Of the Mexican government in
many instances.
For this reason, it is declared, the
