BUDAPEST, Hungary. June %
Count Stephen Bethlen, prime minister
of Hungary. was challenged to two
duels yesterday, but apologized when
friends of his opponents waited on him.
The challenges were issued by Gas
ton Gall and Julius Birki, members of
the Democratic opposition in the Cham
Der of Deputies. They objected to
epithets which the count applied to
the opposition in a bitter debate on
the government measure to grant a
monopoly to the Swedish American
match trust In return for several mil
lion dollars. Count Bethlen remarked
to the opposition deputies:
You are only sorry because no COM
mission on this transaction flowed into
your pockets
Deputy Fogarshi retorted to the
prime minister:
You remind me of a swineherd,
standing among his swine"
When the other indignant Deputies
sent their seconds to Bethlen he said
he was sorry and that he did not mean
to insult any one.

Reveal Criminal Negligence Third Accident Week
CHARGE |, R. T.
WAS AWARE OF
BAD EQUIPMENT
Ill Persons Treated by
Doctors


Criminal negligence on the part
of the PETERBOROUGH Rapid Transit,
on whose subway and elevated lines
three accidents, claiming almost a
score of lives and injuring over 200
others, have occurred within the last
two weeks, was yesterday blamed
for the fire in the East River sub
way tunnel which caused a panic
among 800 passengers trapped with
in the smoke-filled car
When the final check-up was
made this morning of those who had
suffered injury in the latest disas-
ter, it was found that Ill persons
had been treated for suffocation and
injuries. Many of the injured had
been trampled as the passengers,
still fresh with the horrors of the
Times Square disaster, made a gen
eral rush for the exits.
So indisputable is the guilt of the
I. R. T. in the most recent train
accident that even the Transit Com
mission of New York, which has
continually shielded the company
and perverted the facts of different
accidents to exonerate the officials
from all blame, was forced to re-
luctantly admit that the entire blame
for the East River tunnel fire lay
on the criminal negligence of the
marlborough.
The report of the Commission dis
closed the fact that Flushing train.
which had passed through the tun-
mel which goes under the East River
from the Grand Central terminal to
Long Island City, just preceding the
train in which the fire and subse-
quent panic had taken place, had ar
rived at the Jackson Ave. station in
Long Island City with eleven con-
tact shoes ripped off.
The Transit Commission admits
that PETERBOROUGH had made no at
tempt to investigate how the shoes
had been torn away. AS a result
of this failure to investigate, the
Astoria train was sent over the same
tracks a few minutes later, with dis
astrous results.
The three accidents on the I, r. T..
lines, coming within so short a per-
iod of time, have served to arouse
the anxiety and the anger of the
workers who are forced to use the
inefficient and out-of-date cars sup
piled by the l. R. T. on their ways
to and from work. A movement is
growing steadily to demand the i'm
mediate investigation of l. R. T.
facilities, wages, hours and assets
by committee composed of work
ers.

The Trade Union Educational

issued statement to the workers in
the mems clothing industry of New
York regarding the present cleo
tons. The statement declares in
part:
"The Hillman company union
holds elections this week. A pre-
tense at democracy will be made.
They will ask you to vote for Off

betraying the workers by forcing the
piecework system on them.

"Those who received three and
four times as many votes in the
primary elections which the official
dom were compelled to hold at oper
local meetings, were not permitted
to go on the ballot. This was done
because they fought the official
dom's planned sell-outs to the EN-.
ployers.
"Tailors! At the same time the
officials were planning democratic
elections, they were organizing
squads of thugs who came in auto,

attack on Abe Jacobs in William P

these elections? What benefits dt

Due to Testify.
Subpoenaed from Kentucky, where
he was developing a $5,000,000 road
project, D'Olier was to have testi-
fled within the next few days be-
fore the Grand Jury on what he
knows of S29,5o0,0O0 sewer graft
IN which the corrupt Tammany ma
chine is charged with having taken
the lions share.
D'Oller was an executive of the
Sanitation Corporation; also of the
Centrifugal Pump and Machine Co.,
and was also connected with third
corporation which did work for
former Borough President Maurice
Connolly and John Phillips, head of
the Queens sewer ring, who died in
Montreal few months ago under
extremely suspicious circumstances.
Struggle Revealed.
That D'Olier was murdered in
cold blood by those who feared his
disclosures was substantiated by
the fact that his coat lapel was torn,
indicating that struggle had taken
place.
D'Olier was last seen Saturday
afternoon. His body was found
near the Mt. Zion Cemetery, Mas
peth, not far from one of the prin-
cipal sewer plants operated by the
late Phillips, by baker driver.
