"B. Bronson" whose mind has been
a blank since last May, despite all eff
forts Of specialists to aid her to re-
cover her memory. now says she is
Diana Hamilton Morgan and that she
believes her home IS In Virginia.
A ray Of light came to her this week
while she was sitting in a chair in a
room In the National Hospital for the
Paralyzed Now her physicians hope
that by finding her friends and en-
abling her to renew old associations
her memory will come back to her.
This mystery woman" as she is
known in the hospital where she has
been receiving treatment. was found
wandering in lane near Deal. She
said she had been robbed. When she
was asked what her name was she re-
plied "B. Bronson" All efforts to find
her relatives failed. although they
were widely advertised for on two con-
tinents.
She was fashionably dressed when
found near Deal and had every ap-
pearance Of woman of high stand
ing socially and of respectability. Sne
told conflicting stories and 1t was ap-
parent that her mind was gone.
The most persistent of these stories
was that she went from Manchester 70
Dover to bid farewell to her husband.
But there was nothing to substantate
this. nor could any information be got
regarding where he was going.
After parting from her husband she
said she remembered nothing save tnat
she fell from trap. She said she had
a handbag containing twenty pounds
sterling, a gold watch and chain. TWO
valuable rings and wedding ring
When she was found these were miss
ing.
The police formed d theory that she
had been asked to ride in a trap anu
rad been robbed and left unconscious
on the roadside. Now they think y
likely that B. Bronson is her maiden
name and Morgan her husbands name
Aside from her mental affiiction her
healfAh is good.

Berlin, Sept. 10.
TRAVEL on German railroads
during the summer season
exceeded that of last year. The
impoverishment of the middle
classes is indicated by the grow
ing tendency to travel third and
fourth class. An increase Of 26
per cent. in first class traffic is
partly explained by the large
number of foreign tourists who
again are visiting Germany. The
railroads are introducing third
class sleeping cars and it is
cheaper to buy a railroad ticket
and ride in a sleeper than to live
in a hotel. Suburban trains in
and out Of Berlin carried 1,200,-
900 passengers daily before the
war. Now the daily number is
100000.

Attacks Poison Gas.

Poison gases in warfare, used as "the
negation of civilization" were strongly
condemned by Sir Edward Thorpe. pres
ident of the association, in his address
He warned scientists that the educated
public would refuse to give credit to
any body of scientific men who employed
their talents devising means TO develop
or TO perpetuate modes OF warfare which
are abhorrent to the higher instincts OF
humanity.
Answering those advocates Of gases
who asserted they were far less cruel
than any other instrument of war, sir
Edward said:
These arguments carry no convic-
ton. Poison gas creates a new kind
Of weapon. of a power OF deadliness far
beyond the limit of mans vision"
Dealing with the general progress OF
science, he said that unfortunately the
industrial world had possessed an un-
derrated value of the research work
done, but there was an indication IL
was at length aroused to the Importance
of this work. which. he added. was In

Senator Moses, charging that a

of the bill, attacked the leadership

to enact such legislation. 1t was not a
Republican measure, he said, and had
no support from the White House in
so far as it purposed to continue war

Senator Ashurst said Democrats
had lost elections in the past on the
issue of free trade and the day had
come when the rights of the agricul-
