 Trolley Cars
 MeetHead-On

SAN JOSE, Gal, Aug. 3.-More than two score persons were in- jured, many seriously, when two interurban cars on the Peninsula railway coIlided head-on nine miles from here at noon today. One of the cars was crowded with picnick- CTS bound for Congress Springs, a resort.
 The injured included E. G. Shoup, superintendent of the railroad, whose left leg was so badly crushed it was found necessary to amputate it.
 As the outbound car, carrying 53 passengers, mostly women and children, rounded a curve, an in bound car carrying but 15 passen- gers, but double the size of the other coach, bore down upon it. Witnesses said the lighter car reared until it stood nearly on end, throwing the passengers in a screaming, struggling mass to the lower end.

SILVER BULLET"
 NOT ARMS, CAUSED
 DOWNFALL OF HUN

COPENHAGEN, Aug. 3.-The former prince Henry of Prussia in a letter to King George, published today by the Hamburger Mach Richten, says the truth about the war may be had from the allied statesmen and he suggests that if the former German emperor is placed on trial the statesmen also ap- pear.
 The letter asks King George to de- sist from demanding eytradition and trial of the former German ruler The letter, signed Your Humble Cousin Henry charges England plotted Ger many's commercial downfall.
 hTe letter continues:
 Germany and her brave people have been hit severely but they are not yet dead The German spirit which now seems dead, still lives and will one day awake to full consciousness of the dis grace and shame which have been in flicted and will one day demand a reckoning
 Germany was overcome, Prince Henry declares, not by the arms of the entente, but by a silver bullet which lodged in the back of the Ger man people.
