many PERISH in FIRE
| IN PARIS Rail CRASH
Terrifying Scenes Follow
Collision Death List of
80 So Far Reported.
TRAPPED IN A TUNNEL
Cracking Of Blazing Cars
Heard After Means of
Victims Cease.
By the Associated Press.

PARIS. Oct 5.-A rear end collision
Of two suburban trains in the half
mile tunnel running under a most
populous part Of Paris and leading
to the st. Lazare Railroad station this
evening led to terrifying scenes and
the death OF many persons on their
homeward journey from Paris. The
wrecked cars burst into flames In the
smoke filled tunnel and the disaster
was made all the more terrible by the
explosion Of gas reservoir.
At a late hour tonight sixteen
bodies had been recovered. and seven
teen Of the injured had died in hos
pitfalls. Many more are known to have
been seriously injured and sixty others
were slightly injured. This, however,
gives no idea Of the extent of the dts
astcr. because the fremen and others
engaged In the work of rescue have
been unable to get any distance within
the tunnel owing to the gas fumes.
II Is feared that those who were
trapped in the burning wreckage may
never be identified. as they would surely
be burned to q cinder in the intense
heat
The collision occurred when the 5 :62
train for t1a suburb. Marly-le-Roi.
crashed into the rear end OF a train for
Versailles. which left four minutes
earlier on the same track but which
stopped inside the tunnel.
Unable to enter the ends of the tunnel
because Of smoke and flames hremen
cut a hole thr ,ugh the roof Of the tunnel
through the pavement of the Rue de
draught In order to allow the smoke and
gas to escape
The fire spread with great rapidity,
and for time cries Of distress and the
means Of tha dying were heard on all
sides. but these finally were slenced.
though the cracking of the blazing
wooden coached could still be heard.
The firemen under Col rI;vert were
not prepared for the barrage Of poison
Gus fumes which assailed them as they
reached the scene. Finally they sue
ceeded In playing four streams on the
last coaches at the st. Laare end OF the
tunnel. But these were empty and not
burning. while seventeen coaches in the
centre Of the tunnel. far away from tho
Siremen's efforts, were burning fiercely.
At no time could they get closer than
800 feet from the inferno. Nevertheless.
every now and then a passenger with
blackened face would come stragglins
out. begging tho helpless firemen. police
and soldiers to enter the tunnel and save
those dying within.
The Minister Of Public Works, NJ. lc
Troouer. who was early on the scene
helping to direct the rescue work. de-
scribcd II as "a vision OF he'll" He
announced that the dead would be buried
and the injured receive medical treat
rnent at the expense OF the State.

HITCH IN BURCENLAND;
AUSTRIAN CRISIS ACUTE
By the Associated PYess.

VIENNA, Oct 5.--New complications
entered into the Burgenland situation to-
day when 1t was learned that the pro-
posed conference In Italy had not been
sanctioned by Great Britain. In Gov
ernment circles Italy's injection into
the affair Is being regarded In the same
light as the efforts Of DR.. Eduard Benes.
the Czecho- Slovak Premier to settle
the controversy through Herr Schober.
the Austrian Chancellor, both being
without sanction.
Information In Austria Is to the ef-
feet that notwithstanding the signing OF
the evacuation protocol by the Hun
garians only the Hungarian regular
troops were withdrawn. These troops
still remain close to the eastern frontier,
and raids continue. Austrian patrols
and bridge members have been fired upon
at several points.
The economic crisis Is growing more
acute with the fall In exchange. The
populace Is besieging food and clothing
stores in anticipation OF still higher
prices. The price OF fat has risen from
500 to 1900 crowns per kilogram.
Canned milk cannot be purchased. Mer-
chants are Withdrawing their stock and
selling only one article to customer.
Some OF the department stores are
opened for only two or three hours.
Street car fares have increased 80 per
cent. while gas and electricity have
risen nearly 100 per cent Popular un-
rest Is increasing.

LEAGUE ADJOURNS,
COUNCIL REELECTED
Some Delegates Fear That
Washington May Start Rival
Organization.
By the Associated Press.

GENEVA, Oct 5.--The second assembly
Of the League OF Nations adjourned this
evening after reelecting Brazil. Belgium.
China and Spain the four temperament
members OF the council.
The attitude Of the delegates toward
tation Of armament varies according to
the situation of the different countries.
The small States say that 1t Is for the
large nations to make beginning In
this direction. hence Washington Is the
proper place for such beginning. since
there all the greatest nations will be
gathered together. There is also con-
siderable scepticism. but most Of the
delegates are hopeful
In some OF the delegations the Idea
prevails that as an outcome Of the
Washington conference some interna-
tionai organisation may be formed
which would be apart from the League
OF Nations as at present constituted.
Some apprehension Is expressed over the
possibility Of such rival organization.
Great Britain and France must pay
the largest proportion Of the expenses
OF operating the league. according to the
report made by the committee charged
with determining the share Of each coun-
try. They must each pay 90 per cent.
while China, India, Italy and japan will
pay 6.65 per cent each. In the third
category were placed Argentina, Spain.
Brazil. Rumania, Jugosiavia and Cxecho-
slovakia. whose Individual shares were
fixed at S.58 per cent
Opinions Of majority Of the delega-
tions regarding the work Of the league
are divided. The assembly has done less
than ardent league members like Lord
Robert Cecil thought It ought to do. but
more than conservative delegates, such
as A. J. Balfour. believed 1t could do.

cArAWBA COUNTY MURDER
Neal Turner Shot and Killed by Robert
Rcep


Rcep.
Mr.. Neal Turner Of the Loray sec
ton was shot and almost instantly
killed Tuesday morning about unc
o'clock by Robert Rccp, his companion
In the truck which he was driving
through CatawliA county en- route tn
Burke county. Reer was captured this
morning by Sheriff Abcrncthy, Of, Lin
coin county, and was placed in the Ca
tawba county Jail.
Turner had started to Burke county
for, a load Of potatoes and farm pro-
duce when he picked up l2ecp in Ca
tawba; county: and gave him ride
Whils$Gn the way it appears that he
and Reep who is said to have been in:
toxicated got. into a quarrel resulting
In the. Shooting which causeh Turner's
DEATH The bullet entered his left side
and caused death within thirty minutes
Iaftcrward. Turner had been doing n
farm produce business with people up
in Burke county, and on this partfcu-
lar occasion was taking load OF lay
to. some stock and intending to return
with a load Of potatoes.
The affair is supposed to have arisen
partly out of a shooting affair about
four years ago when Turner killed Ju-
| Illus Hoyle at the home of William
Bradshaw in the upper part Of Lincoln
county. Turner was sentenced to the
penitentiary for this act for three years.
He was paroled once or twice during ME
Imprisonment, and upon his good be-
l.havior was pardoned by Governor
Beckett before his term in the peniten-
tiary had expired. Rccp Is said TO have
been a friend of Hoylc whom Turner
had killed some time ago, and the
quarrel which led to the shooting IS
thought to have arisen partly out ri
the former incident.
When Reep was captured he IS SAID
to have been about half drunk, and rs
there was no eyewitness to the inc'-
dent, no further information as to the
shooting could be secured other than
that from Reep and physical eTl-
dences.
In a statement made this afternoon
/ by Young Turner, the 17-year-old son
of the dead man, he states that ne ano
Forrest Recp, near whose home the
marty was camping for the night, werf
witnesses to the tragedy. The Turner
youth says he had been to Burke colln-
ty with his wagon and was On his way
hack and was met al Mulrs Mill las

the purpose of taking Rccp back To nj
home, eight miles away. As lic stcppc'
