bAbY.TO DIE IN
SECLUDED SPOT
Tells Police She Did Not Want
Child Found Dead in
Bushes.

HAGERSTOwN, April AFTER
having led the police on more than
dozen false clues, Mrs. Mary c..
Woods. Of Shippensburg. Pa, has
confessed to authorities at that
place that she had taken the five
week old child. Earl Woods. to a
point half u mile outside of Ship
pensbuEg, and left 1t there to die.
Thursday night last the woman
rushed into police headquarters at
Shippensburg and told Chief George
w. Kline that her baby had been
kidnapped. A search, in which the
whole town participated, was unsuc-
cessful.
The following day the police be-
gan an investigation. but were I'M
able to learn of anyone having been
seen in the vicinity Of the Woods
home. In the meantime. Mrs. Woods
apparently ceased to worry about
the child and the police became
suspicious OF her. They are also
said to have learned that she was
seen leaving the house with II
basket shortly before reporting the
affair.
She was taken into custody, but
was released when the police were
unable to elicit any information from
her. Yesterday Kline visited the
woman at her home and she Is al
legged to have confessed to him. She
guided the police to a secluded spot
near a stone quarry and showed
them the body Of the child hidden be-
hind clump of bushes. 1t is alleged
Mrs. Woods would assign no rea.
son for her act and took her arrest
calmly. She told the authorities that
she did not want the child. and. after
taking II to the place where 1t was
later found. fed It and placed II In
the basket.
Mrs. Woods and her husband do
not live together. The latter was
notified OF her arrest, but thus far
has made no attempt to visit her.
An autopsy is being performed on
the body of the child and today an in.
quest will be held.

RULES DENIED
ID. & O. President Contradicts
McAdoo and Hines Before
Senate Committee.
BY international News Service.

REPUTATION of charges by William G.
Meade aond Walker D. Hines, for
mer Federal Directors General Of
Railroads, that a breakdown" in
rail transpor tation in 1917 forced
Government control, was begun to-
day by railroad executives before the
Senate Interstate Commerce Com
mittee.
Daniel Willard. president Of the
Baltimore and Ohio. emphatically
denied that there was any break
down"
1T might we'll be argued that the
situation in 1917 was due to a brak-
down or failure Of certain government
tai agencies to deal effectively with
a most unusual and unforeseen sit
uation," Willard DECLARED. 1T might
also be said there had been a failure,
II not a breakdown. Of our system of
railroad regulation. but certainly not
a breakdown OF the railroads them
selves.
Willard declared that the actual
performance Of the railroads in 1917,
computed in terms of ton miles and
passenger miles, showed that the
roads had performed praiseworthy
service that year.
1.-THE roads moved 5000 900 900
ton miles in 1917. and only 100000
900 900 ton miles, in 1918 under Gov
ernment control. an increase Of only
2 per cent" Willard said. I'm 1920
under private control, these roads
moved 447 200, 900. 900 ton miles,
another increase Of about 2 per cent.
1t might with equal force be urged
that the railroads in 1918 under
Federal control had broken down."
