Mrs. Angelina NJ Aufiero. &c years
old. of 1913 Crotona avenue. The Bronx,
won $500 by rapid movement of
justice yesterday in Bronx Supreme
Court. where she was suing the Ter
minal and Town Taxlcab Company for
damages alleged to have been sustained
to one OF her legs in an automobile ac-
cident. Mrs. Aufieros attorney called
DR.. Cornelius Egan OF 6S1 East 1920
street, who testified to having measured
Mrs. Aufiero's limbs and found one OF
them-the right one--one inch smaller
in circumference.
This injury. IL was alleged, was the
direct result Of the automobile accident.
An X-ray expert was called and ties T.
fled that Mrs. Aufiero's leg had "suf-
fered n bad twisting" Tho interest of
the jury was unmistakable and Mrs.
Aufiero was asked TO take the stand.
AS she stepped TO her place several OF
the jurors leaned forward. and when
the witness was seated her attorney
asked her TO prove her injuries to the
satisfaction OF the judge and the jury"
II will II you think IL necessary" Mrs.
Aufiero replied.
She raised the hem of her skirt so
that 1t rested slightly above the knees.

There was no further argument and

SLAYER OF TWO SISTERS
GETS LIFE SENTENCE
Crazy Mike Found Guilty of
First Degree Murder.

A jury before Justice James J. Bergen
in the Supreme Court at New Bruins
wick, y. J.. yesterday returned a YER
dict OF guilty of murder in the first de-
gree against Michael Mazorkiewich Of
Stelton. who has been on trial for the
shooting of Misses Sadie and Susan
Felter. sisters and school teachers OF
that town. On recommendation of the
jury the court sentenced Mazorkiawich
for life. An hour later he was being
taken to the State prison at Trenton.
Mazorkiewich. otherwise known as
Crazy Mike" and Mike the Robber,"
looted the home Of a former British
army major taking the latter's war dec
orations and n large calibre rifle. He
stopped an automobile In which the Sis
ters were riding with Theodore Whltlock
of Stelton, and was shot at by whitlociS
when Mazorkiewich brandished the rifle.
A bullet fired from the rifle the next mo-
ment passed through the heads OF the
two sisters.
The defence was that Mazorkiewich
fired when he feared Whitlock was go
ing to kill him.

POINTS I.R.T. RECORD
ON 18TH BIRTHDAY
Only Seven Subway Passengers
Killed in 1901, 100000
Carried, Says Hedley.
100000 HAULED DAILY
Original Trackage of 62 Miles
Has Been Extended
TO 220.

The Interborough observes its six
teenth birthday to-day. Frank Hedley,
president and general manager. who has
been keeping UP a drumfire for in
creased fares, utilized the opportunity
to issue a few more salient facts re-
garding the tremendous growth of sub
way service.
The most remarkable OF Mr.. Hedley's
array of computations was the accident
record. During the sixteen years the
subway carried 1901. 100000 passengers
(about three times the total poulation
of the world). and In that time the death
of passengers on trains due TO train ac-
cidents was only seven.
Mr.. Hedley deduced from this record,
which is. of course. the highest safety
record in the world. that the risk OF
death by subway travel is incurred by
one out Of 614,400,000 passengers car
ried.
The subway originally was built to
carry about 100000 passengers a day
This increased TO 100000 a day by
March. 1913, and at present to more
than 100000 day. The original sub
way was.17 miles long. with GO miles of
single track. At present tho subways
are 10 miles long, with o2O miles of
single track.
One of Mr.. Hedley's calculations is
that the total mileage of the cars run on
the marlborough lines daily is 2s5.000.
The subway was first opened at p. NJ.
October 27, 1904. and on that day car
ried 111.Ss1 passengers.

R. H. DAVIS TO LEAVE
FRANK A. MUNSEY co.
Editor for 10 Years Will In
dependently Continue Lit
erary Activities.

Robert II. Davis who has been asso-
ciated editorially with the Frank a.
Munsey Company for eighteen years,
announced yesterday his retirement
from that organization, TO take place
within the present year. His purpose is
TO devote himself exclusively to handling
the work of a group Of magazine. book.
stage and screen contributors. to the end
that authors. editors and producers may
come into closer relationship through n
medium familiar with the capabilities
and the needs Of all concerned.
With the writer's of the present gen.
Grafton Mr.. Davis has enjoyed a rare
intimacy He found O. Henry on the
top floor OF the Hotel Marty in Twenty
fourth street in the early nineties and
shortly thereafter put him under con-
tract for five years. During that time
all of the manuscript from the Bagdad
Historian passed through Mr.. Davis's
hands. He published all OF the early
short stories of Mary Roberts Rinehart
and her first three novels. When Fan
ME Hurst came out of st. Louis to New
York In search of fame he bought her
first years output and induced that
authoress TO turn her attention TO the
themes that since have given her dis
tinction. He took the late Charles r..
Van Loan out of Park Row and Ben
Ames Williams from the journalistic
field In Boston.
Montague Glass during his early
struggles came to Davis and announced
his intention to retire from the pursuit
of literature and return to the practice
of law. Davis prevailed upon him to
write three more stories before striking
his colors Among the three was the
first Potash and Perlmutter" tale. The
bar association lost a good member.
Scores of the now successful contribu-
tors to the fiction periodicals received
at his hands encouragement at time
when they most needed 1t. His CORE
spondence with the writer folk. hundreds
of whom he has never seen. averages a
thousand letters month, distributed
through the English speaking world.
Twenty-six books have been dedicated to
him.
On a novel buying expedition to Eng
land in 1914 he read the manuscript OF
q story entitled Black Diamonds" by
Joseph Conrad. 1t was a brilliant piece
of writing viewed as literature. but II
lacked plot, suspense and progress. In
Davis's own words. 1t was like "a hand
full of glitterng jewels. unstrung." AT
the end of a three hour session In the
Savoy Hotel Conrad agreed to make the
experiment of turning Black llia-
monds" into a novel with plot ana 70
leave nothing unfinished. AS a result
he revised 10000 words OF this manu-
script. which subsequently appeared In
book form under the title Of victory.
In point of circulation 1t is Conrads
best seller.
In spite of the fact that Mr.. Davis
during the las. twenty years has come
into professional contact with every
we'll known writer In America and Eng
land. his greater pride Is that during his
entire editorial career the doors OF his
office have always been open to the be-
ginners in the realm of letters.

RUINED MOBILES PAID
FROM SECRET FUND
Creditors Of Russia Sue to Get
at Millions Sent to Wash
ington Embassy.
ASSERT CASH is DIVERTED
Prince CantacuZene, Husband
of Julia Dent Grant, Is
Said to BE on Payroll.

In the Supreme Court yesterday be-
fore Justice McAvoy the assertion was
made by Phelan Beale that Prince
Michael Cantacuzene. who married Julia
Dent Grant, daughter of the late Gen.
Frederick D. Grant, has been receiving
funds from he defunct Russian EN-
baesy in Washington. Various other
Russian noblemen, whose fortunes went
down with the collapse of the Cars re-
gime. are alleged to have been the re-
cipients of these funds as salaries.
The assertion was made in injunction
proceedings instituted by Clause Nam
kivel and the Macgregor Grant Corpora
ton of New York to enjoin the old Rus
sian Embassy from paying out money III
the National City Bank to any one ex-
cept the plaintiffs. They want payment
for 100000 worth ~of automobiles ship
ped by them In 1917 to the Russian Ash
attic Bank at Vladivostok and fseized by
the late Admiral Kolchak, then head of
the Omslt All-Russan Government.
The petitioners assert that correspond
ence which has passed between former
Ambassador Bakhmeteff. representative
of the one-time imperial Government of
Russia. and Mr.. Ughet, his financial
agent III new 1OTk, Will SHOW lndL lAie
Omsls Government sent about $4,000. 600
to New York for deposit in the National
City Bank and iSidder. Peabody & Co.
TO pay bills incurred by the Omsk Gov
eminent in the United States
Since the death of Admiral Kolchak
and the passing of the Omsk Govern
ment, petitioners allege. the fund sent
here to pay United States creditors has
been used for other purposes. including
payments of salaries to Prince Canta-
cuzene and other Russian mobiles, and
the establishment OF bureau of in
formation in Washington for the Russian
Embassy.
Frederic r. Coudert. representing the
Russian Embassy. did not admit the
use OF the funds as charged, but he cnn-
tended that Mr.. Ughet is protected from
legal process, such as the petitioners are
invoking, by reason of his diplomatic
position and international law.
Mr.. Beale replied that there is a ques-
ton about the diplomatic standing OF
Russian representatives In the United
States and that he did not think the
court would allow creditors to suffer by
reason of such a technical objection.
Both attorneys declined to discuss the
matter outside OF the court.
Justice McAvoy reserved decision.
