No One Seems to Know Who Is Responsible ffcr the Wreck. TWO NEW BRIDGES By Private Leased Wire. Chadwick, N. Y., June 30.—The Del aware, Lackawanna and Western flyer, going 40 miles an hour, bound east, with all of Its coaches fairly well Ailed, smashed Into a freight train, head-on, here this afternoon. Six of the pas sengers were dangerously, If not fatally hurt, while a dozen others, including the conductor and baggageman, were less seriously Injured. Just how the flyer, which should have had the right of way and a clear track, should have encountered the freight train beyond tho station hire. Is unexplained. The cohductor of the passenger train .declares that he re ceived orders as usual, and the engin eer went ahead according to these In structions. i The engineer and fireman on the freight train were slightly hurt, the latter being flung from the engine cab. The engineer also declared he had In structions to pass Chadwick, and he believed that the flyer was late, and that, therefore, had time to reach his siding.

Car- DOGS AND ROOSTERS DISTURB SLUMBERS OF TIRED CITIZENS; RELIEF IS ASKED OF THE POLICE One of the most unique complalnte inihle to the pbllce In some time cornea In the nature ot a protest against the dogs and roosters In the vicinity of No- 178 Forrest avenue, which are aald to poaseaa a penchant for luaty and dis turbing noises during these heated summer nights. The neighborhood ta said to ’ teem with canines and husky chanticleers, and they keep up such a confusion, with an Intermingling of barks ami crows, that the tired and hot cltlxena are unable to sleep. These noises hive chased away peaceful slumber so per sistently of late that the people have grown desperate and have appealed to the police for relief. One lady has Informed the police that some kind of relief must be af forded at once, or "there will be some thing doing." What this "something" will be, she does not explain, but the threat ieavea plenty of room for specu lation. The police are of the opinion that the lady contemplates a reduction In the population ot canines and roost era In that particular community. ter, H. K. W. Palmer and E. B. Rosser. It Is stated that one .of the sites has been- positively decided upon, and that ono of tho remaining two will be cboaen. The point decided upon will not be made public until after the committee aubmlta lta* report to the commissioners. The committee paid' a visit to the three ferries Friday afternoon and conferred with commissioners from Cobb county. The matter will be taken up at the meeting of the county commissioners next Wednesday, at which time commissioners from Cobb county will be present, and appropria tions will probably be made. The new work Is In line with the extensive Improvements on the county roads which have been made recently.

SMITH \ Motor Car Which Has Been Making a Wonderful Record in Other Parts of the Country To Be Handled in This City. THE FAMOUS REO TOURING OAR. An announcement which will Interest prospective automobile buyers Is the fact that John E. Smith, who has been connected with his father, John Smith, the well-known carriage build er, for many years, has, after careful consideration and Investigation, taken the agency of the Reo automobile, one of the best and most successful American makes. Before taking the Reo agency, Mr. Smith, who Is a graduate'of the Geor gia School of Technology, and Is well posted as. to mechanics, made a visit to the factory of the Reo company, at Lansing, Mich., xvhere he made a per sonal Inspection of the ff*—** and performances of the Reo cor. He returned Thursday. Tn speaking of his trip. Mr. Smith said: When I decided to entor the auto mobile business, I determined to make a careful Investigation ns to the mer its of the various machines In the market. My attention was attracted to tho Reo by Its really remarkable performances In all parts of the coun try. In economy nnd In hill-climbing contests It has established a "truly wonderful record, almost always win ning trophies over cars In Its ftlaak, and oftentimes dsfeatlng cars of twice Its cost. But desiring to make a per sonal Investigation, I went to Lansing to seo how* the Reos are made. I was more than satisfied with the result of "The engine Is the two-cylinder pet. tern with sixteen well-developed horn power, which Is so effectively applied that the car Is admittedly the greatest hlll-clfmber in its class. "The part that pleased me most, however, was their method of testing each car; the motor Is thoroughly test ed twice by being run on Its own power for, at least, ten hours before being assembled In the frame of the chassis, nnd then after being mounted It ts tried out on the track for neversl miles; then, after the car Is all finished and ready for shipment, It Is given *' fourth and final teBt of 10 to 20 miles on the road, the roughest roads are sought out nnd the cor Is put to the severest possible exertions, and must be entirely right before the Inspector will pass It for shipment. I rode In five different cars, which were being tested out, and can testify to the thor oughness and care taken with etch car. "I have ordered a car load of Reos, which will be shipped this week, and when they arrive I would be very glad to give Interested parties a demon stration, showing just what Vie Reo can do. I predict that It will surprise many with Its great hlll-cltmblng power, as well as simplicity of con trol. tlon manufacture, 1 can recommend the splendid car. Drop forgings arc used throughout tho chassis, In suring strergth and lightness. "The Reo touring ear, two cylin der, 18-horse power, sells for (1,2(0, while the runabout for two people sells for (650. Tho price of the four-pas- senger runabout, with fr/dlnl seat, Is (676.

Miss Lawrence Swears Out War rants Against Man and Wife. Women Fought Furiously, Saturday morning Mist M. Lawrence, who conducts a: boarding house at S? Walton street, swore out warrants for H. E. Handy and hla wife for assault and battery, and Judge Landrum set the trial of the case for Monday after noon. • It seems that Handy and Us wife have been boarding with Miss Law rence for a year or more, and for some reason the two women fell out and for a while carried on a wordy war. Then It became In good earnest a reg ular hair-pulling match. Mrs. Handy wore glasses and In the first encount er these were lokt, with the result that she was practically blinded. Her hus band took a hand, claiming that ha simply tried to act aa peacemaker, but when seen Saturday morning he stated that he had a sufficiency at that sort of thing. "Marquis of Queenaberry rules don't go In these scraps." said Handy, “they go at It tooth and fingernail fashion, and the one who gets the worst of It is usually the peacemaker. If he sep arates them they both come back at him as If he were the principal cause of the scrap. No more of It for me.'' Handy claims that the warrant sworn out against him by Mias Law rence Is pure spite work, as she hoped he would be thrown Into jell on ac count of Inability to make the bond required. This he succeeded In doing, howevar- ami »•>'» he has no fear of the outcome. When Miss Lawrence was seen Saturday morning she stated that she preferred to make -no state ment whatever In regard to the matter. Handy and fits wife conduct a card printing stand on Peachtree street. "You believe In tunes, don't yon?" "I do not." "But I heard you "Well, my rich i Llicn.
