early Sunday morning, shot and
seriously wounded the Metropoli-
tan park policeman Frank Phil
brick. The capture was made at o
home upon Jackson street where
Wilson was lodging with his pal,
BIZ Crosby The officers surprised
the men in bed. The two men
jumped to their feet and tried to
escape, but were quickly captured.
His young woman companion,
Sarah F, Doyle, informed the po-
lice.
The shooting ocured on the first
anniversary and under identical
circumstances of the murder of Pa
trolman James Preston of Wake
field, Mass. Officer Philbrick is
said to be only slightly injured and
likely to recover.
Wilson was identified later ac-
cording to the police as one of the
three men who held up and robbed
John Murphy, a messenger of the
Somelville Trust Co., on the af-
ternoOn of Feb. Il. Wilson was
held without bail on a charge of
assaulting with intent to murder
three Metropolitan police officers
Miss Doyle was held in $4,000

before and after the fact and
Crosby was arraigned as an acces-
sory after the fact. Crosby was
held in $l0,G90. The three cases
were then continued to April ID.
The shooting Sunday occurred
about 1915 a. M, and started when

approached the car occupied by
Wilson and asked for his license.
Pretending to hunt for it as he got
out of the car he ran away while
the officers were looking at the

the train due in st. Johnsbury at
220 Saturday afternoon and quick
thinking and quick action on his
part were all that prevented the
passenger train with its heavy
load of human lives from plunging
into the angry Moose river in one
of the worst landslides ever ex-
perenced on the Maine Central.
The mans home is near the
Works bridge and Saturday after
noon about las his housekeepcr
and Joseph Bell, young boy who
lives with Mr.. Wallace, heard a
loud noise and rumbling that
seemed to shake the house. Inves-
tigation showed the track across
the river covered three or four
feet deep and 100 feet in length
with dirt and trees carried down
from the steep bank. The Port
land mail was due in few mo-
ments and young Bell fairly few
to the track to give the alarm.
In the meantime Mr.. Wallace,
who was away from home, had re-
turned. He saw the danger and
not waiting to put his horse in the
barn he caught up an improvised
red flag and rushed to the track.
The slide was directly back of his
house, but to reach the track he
had to go some distance down the
road, through the bridge and up
the track, probably a half mile.
Fortunately the train was running
late and the man reached the
slide Just as the train rounded the
curve and the engineer pulled
down few feet from the danger
zone. 1t is doubtful if he could
have averted striking the lOosencd
rails as the track curves sharply
at that point.
Passengers and train crew shiv
cred with horror as they saw the
tragic setting of the landslide,
with its steep bank on one side
and the river on the other. For
some distance at that point the
track runs between the river and
the bank, and only a. miracle
could have prevented train and
passengers plunging into the river
if the train had struck the loosen
ed rails, moved several feet by the
avalanche of dirt and trees. Rails
were torn from the ties.
The Bell boy had signalled the
engineer before Mr.. Wallace
reached the curve, but the waving
of the red flag carried by the man
stopped the train. A purse of
money was made up by the pas
sengers and left with the station
agent at East st, Johnsbury for

CAPT. BEERWORTH'S
TRENCH MODEL
BIG ATTRACTION
Over Two Thousand Peo-
pie Saw 1t at Newport
ArmOry Saturday

Over two thousand persons were
attracted Saturday to the exhibit
ion at the Armory which includes
among its features a model of that
section of the Hindenberg line
which was penetrated by American
troops in 1913.
From the time Of the opening
of the exhibit at 10 o'clock in the
morning, until its closinD Saturday
evening there was constant
stream of visitors and the display
gave them a most comprehensive
idea of the battlefront.
The model of "No-M Mans Land"
is a work of great skill which has
been reproduced with the most
minute attention to detail by Cap
tain G. ". Beerworth, who served
with the Canadian Engineers.
Nothing that went to make up u
typical battlefield has been over
looked.
The front lines, the support and
reserve trenches, together with
communication trenches, duck
board bottoms, sandbag parapets,
parados revetment, barbcd wire en-
tanglements, shell holes snipers'
posts, machine gun cmplacements,
strong points, and the shattered
trees.
All that was required to com
plete the realism of the model was
Il thick coating of mud. The hlls
and valleys were readily recognized
by the local boys who served in
France and tlamped many times
through these trenches.
The exhibit also includes a large
number of official photographs
which tell their own story of the
devastation of war and the con-
ditions under which American
soldiers fought.
There are also displayed many
trophies of the war which have
been donated by France, Canada
and England, Along these relics
were machine guns, helmets, Ger
man armour piercing rife, breast
plates, trench motors, gas masks
various sized shells and other inter
cSting articles. 1t is worth the visit
to the model to hear the wise COM
ments of the former doughboys, as
some little feature of a trench will
bring to mind some exciting adj
venture during the days when these
same boys were dressed in khaki
and covered with mud not 20 many
months ago. "Hcy Jim see that
listenin' post in that shell hole?"
Huh? Remember the night you and
me- One cx-soldicr was heard
to remark as he left the rooms, it
was like that only the Hclls left
out of this one.
To 20 into detail with the model
constituted by Captain G.. W. Beer
worth, NcImonter, who was born
in Richford, where he received his
early education, leaving there at
the age of twenty Ten years be-
fore the war he transferred his
home to Tennessee and than with
the true spirit of IA fighting Ten

army and served overseas long be

PROSPERITY TO
FOLLOW STRIKES
ADMINISTRATION L e A D E .
FORECAST HUGE GAINS IN
U. S. BUSINESS.
GOOD TIMES COMING
GRADUAL BUSINESS IMPROVE
meNT WILL FOLLOW END OF
LABOR TROUBLES.

WashingtOn.-Wa was given oy
high administration officials that the
country must recover from the after
math of the recent Industrial upheaval
before economic benefits flowing from
the settlement of the railroad strike
can react fully upon national business
conditions.
Secretary Hoover took the view
that although the country Is now un-
doubtedly better off than it was
year ago, ii probably will be six
months before high plane of prosper
ity Is attained. while Secretary Mellon,
although considering the business out
look very good" recognized as fare
Stalling immediate CONNIE cial cXpan-
sion the limitations imposed upon
transportation facilities by car short
ages and II possible Inadequate labor
supply.
The greatest loss as n result of the
strike will be borne by the farmers,
according to an analysis of the situa-
ton by Secretary Hoover, in which he
reached the conclusion that the eco
nomic wound' received by the coun-
try should he healed quickly. Secre-
tary Mellon was said to foresec some
hindrance TO immediate economic re-
covery through shortage of transpor-
tation equipment and possible labor
shortage.
In contrast with the view of his two
cabinet associates, however. Secretary
a.
| positive that settlement of the railroad
| strike removed the last obstacle to
Unprecedented" prosperity.
Reports to the Labor Department
from its representatives in Chicago
brought additional details of the score
| to which the partial settlement of the
| strike was expected to extend. At
| least 30 per cent Of the railroads af.
| fected by the strike have approved
| the Willard.,Iewell plan, they
declared, while sufficient other roads
| had signified their willingness to set.
| tie on this basis to bring the total to
60 per cent of the national mileage
| While the losses due TO the coal and
railroad strikes have been consider.
able Secretary Hoover said in q
statement issued here, they are easily
overestimuted.
"The estimate of current coal min.
ers' wages lost in the five months (of
strike) is not correct basis of the
| estimation of the total loss" he said
Because over Il period of eighteen
months we probably will consume ap.
| DrOXimately the same amount of coal
| In other words, the miners will work
more days in the week and produce
more in the next six or eight months
than they would have produced II
there had been no strike.
Loss to Industries.
"The real loss would lie more In
the loss Of productivity in industries
that have, or might have, to close
| down as II result Of the coal strike.
The greatest loss is the one being
| met by the farmer as result of the
railway strike. The export of farm
products has been interfered with Sc
riously by the inability of the rail
ways to transport products. Prices
therefore are depressed unduly in the
agricultural regions and the farmer ID
