ACCIDENT CAUSED BY
WASHOUT AT BRIDGE

Anadarko, Okla.-As the result o
the washout nj the culycrt between
the west river bridge and the corne
Of the city. and the failure OF IN,
county commissioners TO repair tn
damage. Ford car ran into tn,
cavity and narrowly avoided killinl
Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Mckee ,and hei
seven months old baby who were the
three occupants OF the car.
While returning home from a
short pleasure trip. Mr.. and Mrs
: Mckee, mail carrier on route one,
drove across the small bridge west
OF Anadarko. and in order to pass
another car approaching from the
east. drove close to the edge OF
the washout. The road surface
gave way and the car fell into the
ditch. Mrs. Mckee was seated in
the front seat beside her husband
and was holding the child in her
arms. The impact OF the car when
il lodged In the east bank of tie
washout. loosened the baby from its
mothers arms. and threw II into a
pudf'e OF water at the bottom OF
the hole. The small landallde that
followed covered the baby up with
dirt and clods, but fortunately the
blanket ithe child was wrapped in,
protected its face. Mrs. Mckee
climbed over the back OF the car
and rescued the baby. who apparent
ly was not injured seriously by the
fall.
The front wheel of the car went
completely over the embankment
and buried itself about foot In
the east bank. The car was going
at rate of four or five miles an
hour, and this low speed no doubt
prevented il from turning over and
killing the occupants The car
rested on the right rear fender
with the left front wheel on top
of the bank.
Rope and tackle were brought to
the scene in the city's truck, and
by anchoring this to a tree across
the road the car was pulled out
of the hole, after about half an
hours strenuous efforts.
A cavity about eight feet across
and extending almost TO the center
of the road, was washed out of the
approach to the culvert during the
tich water last week. and had not
been filled up or guarded with a
rail. The hole is six or seven feet
deep, and near the outer edge Is
a small pool of water, about seven
inches deep, in which the baby fell.
Crushed rock covers part OF the bot
tom of the hole. The washout ex-
tends back q foot or more under the
road bed aud is very dangerous
place.
IT was lucky accident, If there

CONTINUE WORK
FOR IRISH PEACE
Definite Action Expected TO
Follow Elections This
Month.
Especial Gable to The Washington Herald
and Chicago Tribune.)
By JOHN STEELE.


LONDON. May Il.-Pourparlers
are proceeding without interruption
between representatives of the
British government and Sim Fein
leaders and will probably result In
some definite action toward peace
following the elections at the emo
of the month. Difficulties, however,
have arisen over the fact that most
of the men chosen so far to repre-
sent the Sim Fein are without
practical experience in the prob
lens of government economics and
finance.
The British expressed their will
ingness to grant full control of tax
alton, including customs and ex-
cises, and the Irish representatives
got So far as to discuss details with
the British experts. The British
were astounded when II was seri-
ously proposed that Ireland receive
all taxation on Guinness stout. which
is produced in Ireland. no matter
where IL is sold. A great majority
of this product is sold in England
and abroad and such a scheme
would be impossible of realization.
This is only one sample, but II Is
a type Of all the difficulties made in
working out a practical scheme. An
other difficulty is the insistence OF
some extremists, who are mostly
literary persons and who have TAX
en- no part in the fighting, on the
letter Of their demand.
The practical element in the Sim
Fein has begun to realize this
weakness in its directorate, and sf-
forts are now being made to or
ganize a group Of hnanciers and
business men who will be able 10
meet the British on equal terms.
