Thousands Held Up
By Short Circuit On
Long island Lines
Cars Jump Track, Hit Third
Rail and Cut OFF Power ON
Rockaway Beach Division
and Ocean Electric r.. R.

Traffic on the Rockaway Beach divi-
sion of the Long Island Railroad, be-
tween the Aqueduct station and the
terminal at Rockaway Park. and on all
the lines of the Ocean Electric Rail
road Company was brought to COM
plete standstill from 1904 o'clock to
$3.50 last night by the derailment of
the two rear cars of a local due at
Rockaway Park at 7:10 o'clock. The
trucks came in contact with the third
rail as they Jumped the tracks, caus..
ing short circuit which interrupted
tn power on both systems.
Officials of the Long Island Railroad
rushed to the scene on the wrecking
train and found that the accident was
due to a rutted switch near 117th
Street, Rockaway Beach, rather than
to defective rolling stock, the blame
for which could have been laid to in
adequate inspection owing to the shop
mems strike.
AS the wheels came in contact with
the third rail there was flash which
drove the passengers on all eight cars
of the local in near-panic to the
right of way. A fire which started a
minute later brought the fire engines
to the scene A crowd assembled to
watch the wrecking crew and the fire
men. Inc ponce RESERVES Hdu W Iopc

-Four trains on which it is thought
that about 5000 persons We're travel

the current on the Long Island, and
in the Rockaways it was thought that
three times that number had been in
convenienced by the tie-up on the
streetcar line. The passengers at
first stood around their trains waiting
for something to happen, but before
the short circuit was repaired most Of
them had drifted off on foot or in
taxicabs, which reaped rich harvest

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. o. Only the
sharp tang of the salt sea was in the
air to-day when Father Neptune came
to town with his court of twenty
beauties. No aromatic perfumes in
vaded the atmosphere az the old fellow
fioated in from the ocean aboard q
barge that was vision of loneliness.
In private life the King of the Deep
is none other than Hudson Maxim,
famous for his inventions and for his
aversion to artificial fragrance.
With the arrival of Father Neptune
and his score of nereids, the Atlantic
City pageant was on. Thousands of
spectators crowded the dock of the
Atlantic City Yacht Club when his
deliberately decorated barge reached
there. The sixty candidates for Amer
ica's coveted beauty prize showered
Father Neptune with non-smellinc
flowers. and he shifted the air and was
satisfied.
Mayor Bader presented him with q
silver key to the city. Then he pre-
sented Father Neptune to Miss Amer

Street, shortly after midnight yester-
day, and after binding and gagging two
watchmen on guard, made away with
three truck loads of bonded Scotch
whisky valued at $4,000.
The robbery is one of the boldest
ever reported. All precautions were
taken by the robbers, who carried their
own electrician and disconnected bur-
yIar alarms. Another talented indi-
vidual in the operating gang was an &C
complished burglar who welded
Jimmy, breaking locks on all barred
doors, which stood In the path OF the
Iooters.
Took Choice Liquors
The robbers were in the warehouse
for four hours seeking out the choicest
l;auors stored there and loading the
cases on the big trucks. They left the
xga.cfren bound to chairs and gagged,
where they were found shortly after
daybreak.

loading platform, at which three trucks OK

Horse ON Rampage
And Four Are Hurt
Boys, Playing in Street,
Start Runaway; 3 Police
men Injured in Attempts
to Stop Frightened Animal

A big bay horse, footloose and fancy
free for five minutes in a congested
section of Williamsburg yesterday aft
ernoon, injured three Brooklyn police
men and civilian before it was cap
tured and subdued It's lease of free
dom terminated with several breath
less men sitting on its head.
The horse was attached to light de-
livery wagon driven by Abraham Barn
tosky, of 1923 ST. Marks Avenue,
Brooklyn. At the public watering
trough at Havemeyer and South Fifth
streets, Williamsburg Plaza, Barntosky
slipped the bride from the horses
head to let him drink in comfort. Just
nose in the refreshing trough, tennis
ball. used by youngsters emulating
with their fists the bat Of Babe Ruth,
raped him smartly on the flank The
horse wheeled and bolted up Have
meyer Street toward Broadway. Barn
tosky was so astonished he couldn't
stop him.
Patrolman Charles Knapp, of the
Wilson Avenue station, who was off
duty and in civilian clothes, made q
flying leap as the horse passed and
managed to get his arms around the
animals neck. He was carried into
Broadway, where Fatroman Charles
Norbeck joined him. The weight of
both men failed to slow the horses
pace and after being carried nearly q
block they were thrown to the pave
ment.
Samuel Herschkoff, clerk living at
II Argyle Road, was knocked into the
gutter when he tried to halt the run
away. Patrolman Gustave Schauer-
brand, on duty near Broadway and
Marcy Avenue, was more fortunate. He
closed in when Herschkoff was thrown
and succeeded in getting one hand over
the nose Of the animal, shutting off its
wind The horse stumbled and, with
the weight of the officer, dropped to
his knees and shoulder. Schauerbrand
and several civilians soon were sitting
on his head.
The injured men were gathered up
over an area of three blocks, treated
by hospital surgeon and sent home,
suffering from bruises and lacerations

Ten years later he became manager
of the then st. Paul, Minneapolis and
Manitoba railway and director of the
Bank of Montreal. For 43 years he
was a director and became the banks
president in 1910 at the age of so. He
was one of the early organizers Of the
Canadian Pacific railway and at critic
al times when Lord Mount Stephen
and Lord Stratheona had pledged their
credit and that of their friends to the
limit and it looked as though the en-
terprise must be abandoned, Angus IN
dertook TO pledge the credit of the
Bank of Montreal up to a certain
amount.
Becoming closely associated at that
| time with the Canadian Pacific rail-
way which had chance for its life
with the indispensable backing of the
bank, he stood by the railway through
out the remainder of his life, Offering
at all times his knowledge and serv-
| ice to its presidents, Lord Mount
Stephen, Sir William Van Horne, Lord
/ Shaughnessy and E. w. Beatty. His
wonderful foresight caused him to help
foster schemes for the progression OF
the railway and the development OF
one of the worlds finest wheat grow
ing areas in Western Canada.

until he broke my heart. ] said, 1

But if you'll cease to chase me round,

salesman rant; why don't you mort
gage yonder COW, or borrow money
from your aunt?" Oh, nothing could
his ardor douse, at every turn he
would appear; often hid beneath the
house when l beheld him drawing
near. At last arrived the golden morn

scratched; 'and now" l said, IN buy

are apathetic and careless probably best explains
the situation.
Too many voters depend upon the party or
CARNATIONS to call on them and urge them to do
that which they should do as part of their citi-
zenship The man or woman who cares so little
for his vote that he or she neglects to register,
is not the kind of citizen who has the welfare
of the country at heart very much.
The selection of the men who are to represent
us in the house of representatives and in the
senate of the United States is an important one.
1t should enlist the serious consideration of the
voters, for it is by their choice that the selec-
tons will be made.
If voters neglect to register by the thous-
and and undesirable men are elected because of
public apathy and indifference, the state must
suffer the consequence in the decisions which
these men will make in the national legislature
No voter who has not registered will be per-
mitted to enter the voting booths in November
Registration is absolutely necessary. None
should deceive himself into believing that he can
let the registration go by default and yet be
able to exercise the right of his franchise on
election day. That is impossible.
Between now and Oct. 8, the two parties
probably will make strenuous efforts to induce
the voters to register. If you have not done so
remember that your last chance is on Oct. 9.
