PRESIDENT PLANS
TOUR Of THE j. s.
Wilson Seeks Public View on
World League.
TRIP PLANNED FOR MARCH
Expects to Return to Peace Confer
ence After Learning Countrys
Opinion, Says Paris Dispatch
Gives Dinner to Ameri-
can Commissioners.

Paris, Jan. 15.-President Wilson is
considering a speaking tour of the
United States when he returns home.
It is said that this trip will take him
into many of the principal cities and
it is possible that he may touch the
Pacific coast. His plans are not as
yet matured, but it is believed that he
has discussed the plan with his ad-
viSers.
With congress out of the way early
in March Mr.. Wilson would have an
opportunity for such a tour before re-
turning to Europe should he follow his
original plan and if his return should
be necessary. He would also have
time for his proposed trip before the
converting of an extraordinary session
one.
So far as known, Mr.. Wilson has no
plans for an extra session, but he still
holds to his idea of returning to the
peace congress, If it is felt his presence
is necessary to the success of the
league OF nations.
To Sound Public Sentiment.
The object of his proposed speaking
tour would be to inform the country
by personal contact of the proceedings
at Paris and at the same time sound
out and encourage public sentiment in
support of the peace principles he has
enumerated and which he feels have
been acclaimed by the masses in Eu-
rope.
There are as yet no official announce
ments of the presidents purpose, but
some of those close to him suggest
such a trip is feasible in view of the
fact that it is now certain that the
peace congress will still be working
on its problems during the summer.
Mr.. Wilson's friends believe that pop
ular expressions in the United States
might support those of England,
France and Italy and have great in
fluence on European statesmen.
The president has told his friends
that he considers the receptions given
him by the people of Europe, not as a
personal Endorsement but an approval
of his peace principles. He is being
urged, therefore, to make a speaking
tour to give opportunity for popular
manifestations of public opinion in his
own country.
President Gives Dinner.
President Wilson gave a dinner to
members of the American peace COM
mission and its technical advisers, in
Guiding E. n. Hurley, B. n. Baruch,
Herbert Z. Hoover and Vance McCor.
mick. Z. M. House was the only alb
sentee, being still too i'll to leave his
home.
Mr.. Wilson will be the guest of hon
or at banquet to be given by the
French senate January 20.

New York Central Flyer Crashes
Into The Wolverine Ex-
press.
FLARE SIGNALS DISREGARDED
Although Both Trains Were Composed

Rear Sleepers Were Telescoped,
Force So Terrific.

| Batavia, n. Y, Jan. 14.-Twenty-twt
passengers were killed and 10 injured
on the Wolverine express of the New
York Central when the Southwestern
Limited of the same road crashed into
it in q rear-end collision at South BY

A rigid investigation was immedi-
ately started to determine the respon-
sibility for the collision.
Both the Wolverine and the South
western Limited were composed of all
steel cars of the most modern and
strongest construction. Yet so great
last car was driven into the one be-
fore it, telescoping both.
All the passengers killed or wound
ed were in these cars and asleep at
the time. Both trains were west
bound from New York, the Wolverine
on its way to Chicago and the other
to st. Louis.
The second section of the Wolver-
inc had stopped to take on an extra
engine. The flagman, witnesses agree,
went back about So car lengths, as is
customary, and set his fuses burn
ing.
The Southwestern Limited came
tearing along through the night at high
speed, overrunning the burning fuses,
according to the flagman, and crashing
into the rear of the Wolverine.
The two cars were twisted about so
that three of the four tracks at this
point were blocked with wreckage.
The passengers in the four sleeping
cars ahead were shaken up badly and
in some instances were thrown from
their berths, but because of the stanch
construction of the cars escaped seri-
Gus injury.
None of the passengers on board
the Southwestern Limited was killed.
