CAR LEAPS IN
NEWPORT BROOK
BUT MAN LIVES
Machine Is Completely
Wrecked In Wild
Tumble

At five o'clock Sunday morning
four men and an automobile were
hurled through the fence and down
ali embankment into Alder brook
on the Newport Center road just
this side of the Mark Joslyn farm.
The four men strange to say re-
ceived only a few scratches, but
the car is pretty much total
wreck.
The machine was a Mclaughlin
or Canadian Buick car, bearing the
number plate 49909 Quebec and
is owned by Robert Heath of
Mansonville. Mr. Heath is the
driver of milk truck from Man
sonville to Newport and makes
trips every day to the city. The
names of the three men who were
with Mr.. Heath could not be
learned as they had left town.
The road at this point is long
steep incline, and the car must
have been moving at a high rate
OF speed as it struck the fence just
on the culvert and smashed the
iron stakes which held the fence.
The fore wheels broke clean off
and were left on the bridge while
the rest of the car was precipitat-
ed over the bank into the water.
The top of the rest Of the car
was precipitated over the bank in
to the water. The top of the car
is crushed, the front wheels off,
the front end smashed in, mud
guards bent and broken, and, in
fact, about everything in sight is
broken or bent.
Several men from Randalps ga
rage at Newport Center worked
all the forenoon getting the ruins
out of the brook and into the road
so that it could be taken away. An
investigation is being held today
TO determine the cause of the ac-
cident.

mond Snyder, who was with the
BANNER girl when the bodies were
found was held as a material wit
ness.
Prosecutor Eastman of Middle
sex county, says Snyder affirmed a
800 word statement, accusing
Hayes of the crime. According TO
Snyder's statement the Staying
was the result of mistaken identi-
ties. He had gone out on the
night of the murder trailing a
man who accompanied the BANNER
girl. Seeing a couple beneath a
crab apple tree, he said, Hayes
opened fire.
According to Snyder, who ad-
mits he is in love with the Bahmer
girl, he was standing on street
corner with Hayes and Leo Kauf-
man when they saw the girl pass
with her stepfather. He was
jealous of her stepfather and when
he told them of his suspicion they
agreed to follow the pair.
About II o'clock they approach
cd the crab apple tree under which
the bodies of Mrs. Mills and Rev.
Hall later were found.
Hayes pointed to two figures
under the tree, exclaiming, "There
they are. Now we will finish. -
Then Hayes whipped out revoi-
yer, Snyder said, and shot. When
they approached the bodies soon
after and lit match, Snyder ex-
claimed, Great God, you've made
a mistake"
The three then fled, according to
the statement, Snyder declares
he did not know how the throat
of Mrs. Mills has been cut. De-
tectives continued vigorously to
work on the case clearly indicating
that they did not believe that the
salying had been wholly cleared up
by Snyder's statement.
Hayes, confronted with Snyder,
when the latter retold his story,
exclaimed, "Your're a liar, in
answer to the latter's words.
Great God, you've made a mis-
vake".

NEAR EAST SITUATION

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. g
The Turkey nationalist troops yes

LONDON, Oct. 9-The Near
East situation continued to pre-
sent disturbing potentialities with
the revolutionary Greek army at
Adrianople declaring it would not
retire and with the victorious
Turkish army concentrating at
Brusa and Ismid anxious to reach
Constantinople and protect the
Turks in Thrace. The uneasiness
was added to by reason that the
Allies are not generally considered
to have sufficient armed forces to
control either the Turks or the
Greeks. The British cabinet met
this afternoon to consider ques-
tions at Mudania where the armis-
tice conference was being resum-
ed under the French instructions
by which the allies present a uni
ted front to the Turks and the i'm
