 All the children lived in Kingston and were on their way home from school.
 The accident occurred late in the afternoon as the car approached a bridge. The trolley pole slipped off the wire and broke the feed line carrying hundreds of volts. One end of the wire fell on the roof of the car. setting it afire. The other end fell to the bridge, charging the rails.
 The children screamed and rushed for the door. The motorman tried to hold them back, but four jumped out. They came in contact with the rails and were electrocuted. The clothes were burned from their bodies
 A fifth child had got to the door when the motorman seized him and barred the way, keeping the rest of his passengers within the car until the current was turned off.

WILSON LIVES QUIET LIFE SINCE. VACAT|NG PRESIDENTIAL CHA|R;. HEAL HI |SGRADUAL[Y IMPROVING.
[RepubIican A. ?. Leased WIreJ

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26-Wood- row Wilson fell sick man two years ago today. Since then he has passed under the shadow of death and out of the White house.
 Thousands of Americans recalled the anniversary of the beginning of the former presidents illness and wondered what he was doing.
 Besides following the ways of a retired man with a lively interest in the world affairs, MT. Wilson lives by the eight hour day. He aims to have eight hours for sleep, eight for work and eight hours for relax ation. and keeps to the schedule pret- ty fairly
 Eats Hearty Breakfast
 Seven a. m. is about his ris- ing time. He slaves and bathes, and then takes some calisthenic ex- ercises prescribed as beneficial in restoring the use of nerves and the muscles impaired during his break down. He has breakfast in Mrs. Wilson's boudoir and finds that two years of illness and slow conva- essence has not affected his appetite. The morning papers never are neg lected, and MT. Wilson reads them thoroughly.
 Then comes the mornings work. Old friends write informal friendly notes or discourse on politics. The schools and colleges ask donations i; individuals for personal financial as- sistance. Others discourse on the shortcomings, as they see them. of the Republican party. Autograph hunters are numerous. Various men who think their ailment is the same as MT. Wilson's want to know the names of his physicians.
 Mrs. Wilson invariably goes over the mornings mail with her hus- band; some letters are turned over to a secretary for reply; most oi them the former president answers. dictating to a stenographer. The mornings work is done in the li- brary. The old desk and chair and table Mir. Wilson used in his study at Princeton are there. along with thousands of volumes. Near one win dow hangs bag of golf sticks. a re- hinder of a better day.

RAIL PLOYES FAVOR GENERAL
 STRIKE. ASSERT
 UNION LEADERS
IRepublIcan A. p. Leased wIrel


 CHICAGO. Sept. 2s.-Leaders of the big four brotherhoods and affili- ated railroad unions tonight declared they had little doubt that the railway employees had voted for a general strike rather than accept a wage re- duction, but announced that the con- servative counsel of the leaders might prevail against a walkout.
 General chairmen of the Brother hood of Railway Trainmen began counting the 1S6.000 strike ballots of their men. but admitted at the start. that. judging from the known temper of the men. the result. will be over whelmingly for a strike. Pressed for an estimate as to what that majority might be, President James Murdock said:
 Big Majority Favor Strike
 "Our past experience has been that 9S per cent of the men will always vote to strike"
 Next Monday officials of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engin- eers, Order of Railway Conductors. Brotherhood of Locomotive Bremen and Engineers, and Switchmen's Union of North America. will meet to count the vote of their 259.000 mem bers.
 Railroad union leaders here expect all the brotherhoods and the switch mems union to cast substantial ma jorities for a strike. The affiliated shop crafts have already voted by approximately 325,000 to 4s.000 to walk out and are only waiting to see what action the other unions take and for the railroad labor board to dispose of the pending working rules agreements.
 Reports of the general chairmen of the trainmen when they assem- bied today were disappointing to the union leaders. The trainmen had voted on a separate ballot because their leaders did not approve of the joint ballot prepared by the other unions. On September 12. President W. G. Lee. who has been i'll at Cleve- land, addressed a letter to the men. who were in the midst of the ball loting, in which he pointed out req sons why he thought strike would be unwise at this time and why the men might expect to accept some wage reduction.
 Argues Against Walk Out
 He asked the men to consider the fact that wages and working condi- tions of all classes established since 1918, were the result of the world war; that 5,000,0 900 men are unem- ployed: that nearly all classes of labor have ben forced to accept re- duced rates of pay during the past year." that the increased wages granted railroad employees last year were based on increased cost of liv- | ing; and that government reports in- dicate 16 per cent cut in living costs since July 1, 1920.
 The strike vote, union officials ' nnfnfnd HnaS mt necessarily mean the immediate calling of a strike. The question as submitted to the men carried vote for or against ca strike unless the wage reduction question can be settled in manner satisfactory to the general grievance | Committee.
 The grievance committee probably will meet here when the strike vote is canvassed, it was said. and either take steps to reopen negotiations with the roads or set date for the walk l mt
