Dr. Waugh's story of Wolfe's short but evenful life is straightforward, unadorned bio- graphy, yet includes all the inter- esting minutiae of Wolfe's youth, his love affairs, and his campaigns. COMPANY BLAMED FOR TUBE TRAGEDY Charged N.Y. Crash Result of Disregarding of Signals New York, May 6--The manage- ment of.New York's vast subway "safest railway in the world"--was directly blamed by city officials last night for the latest major accident on its lines. The Transit Commission charged that a rear-end collision between an elevated express train and a subway train during the early rush hour yesterday, in which four persons were killed, as the result of a dan- gerous but habitual practice of dis- regarding signals to speed up ser- vice. The Interborough Rapid Transit Company, operators of the lines, realized the danger that lay in "keying by' the automatic signal controls in order to save time, but nevertheless had allowed it to go on. It was such "nullification" of the safety devices, authorities said, which caused the disastrous subway wreck last summer at Times Square in which 18 persons were killed. Yesterday's accident occurred at an uptown station, where the East Side Lexington avenue subway line crosses the tracks of the Ninth av- enue elevated. Trains Jammed . Trains were jammed with men, women and children on their way to work. James Cullen, motorman of the subway train, was behind schedule. Traing were crowding him in the rear, and he was utilizing every se- cond to catch up. Near the 167th street station his Arain_ran into an automatic sigaal and began slowing down. Callen knew then that there was another train ahead, but felt he could creep a little closer and save that much time. The motorman therefore "keyed past" the danger stop and sent his train ahead once more. Before he realized it, the cars were hiirtling upon an elevated train ald. In- stinctively C n applied emer- gency brakes and threw the mo- tors into reverse. But too late. The subway express skidded twenty feet, hit the rear of the elevated, and telescoped part of the rear car. Flames shot up from the wrecked car, 18 Simeoe Street Sewtn and elevated transit system -- the, INSPECTOR PRAISES SCARBORO CADETS Birch Cliff, May 6.--Cadets of Scarboro High School paraded on the school grounds on Friday, when the annual inspection by Major E.

Nearly all of the oil- burners are mow using St, Pierre, Miquelon, as their base, and as faci- lities for coaling steamers are rapid- ly nearing completion at that place, the picturesque rum-runners may cease visiting this port.
