MaIUoux. oonaldartd an expert driver, told hla wife not to worry, aa ha wnen' "goln to take any chances." Hi aat the brakes. Ttia road la considered dan gerous under tha moat favnrabla con ditions, aa It pitches to on side. There waa a covering of dead mapla laavai on the oll-soaxed hlgiiway and tha air mi foggy. The party had been vtaltlnc la Hartford. Mra Rlcharda, Mallloux's aunt and her riauKhter-ln-law.hla guests, were going; home to-day and thle waa to be Mr laat auto trip. The machine had Bona about quarter of tha way down hill at twenty mllea ait hour. Mallloux save, whan It awerved. alld over tha allppery road way, crashed Irrto a trolley pola and turned completely ovar. Tha three Women were pinned beneath the ma chine Mallloux waa flung thirty feat. Por a moment ha waa daaed. Then ae ran back to tha overturned oar and triad to reaoue tha woman. Tha aider Mra Rlcharda'a head waa pro truding from under the aid of tha uto. Mallloux bant dowa and apoke la oar but there waa no anawer. Than he called to hla wlfa are the younger woman. No reply came to hla anxloui queries. Worked in the dark to rescue women. Mallloux began to about hyeterteally for help. Several mea In a blackamtth nop heard the ctiea, but they were 'faint, and owing to too fox tha mea could not tall trom what direction they came. It wai fifteen mlnetee before lha wreck waa located. Nona of too man had brought a lantern, and tha work of rearue waa carried on la tha dark. Spurred by Mallloux's frantic appeals, tha men railed tha car enough ao that the women could be dragged out. Dr. Allen of Broad llrook, four mllea away, waa auinmoned. lie waa loet In the fog and arrived a half hour after the nieasage waa aant. By the light of g dingy lantern he ftrst examined me yaunger Mra. Klclisrda, who had bean killed inatanlly, the loctor said.

Mallloux be came wild with grief. "On. why waen t 1 klHed?" ha cried, wringing his glovod hands In despair. "Why was I left to bear all this." Just then rescuers and the dead lying teethe rukd were almost run down by an other machine, which stopped not five faat from the body of the elder Mrs. Klchards. Mrs. Mallloux waa lifted aboard the car and with her husband waa rushed to bar home, No. ao tiuuiner avenue. Springfield. There it waa Xound aha had suffered no dangerous injuries other than shock, from tha affaota of which ana may never wholly reaavor, her physician fears MalUous escaped without a scratch. Tha uod.ea uf tha dead woman wars taken to Warehouse Point WAitTNOTrN. Oct l - Naval of fleers who have read the report of Washington L. Cspps, sent to Havana by Hr-cretary Meyer to Inspect tha wrcrkars of the Maine, say that his report 'onflrrns the deolalon of the Court of Inquiry that the primary explosion was underneath tha hull of the warsh'.p near frame Is. Mr. Cspps superintended the building of the Maine and was familiar with her construction. He was at one time chief constructor of the nsvy. Hi went to Havana to Identify crrtaln parts of tha wreckage that had been exposed through the lowering of tha water In tha cofferdam that aurrounds tha re mains of the vessel. It is expected that the report will be made public. The Court of Inquiry met In 1JM, Im mediately after the Maloa was blown up, but Its Hi, ding was based only upon the reports of naval and civilian dlvara who examlnnd tha sunken hull. Mr. Cappn, tnrough his experience and his famlllsrlty with the Mslna, la rated as ths mont important snd trustworthy observer tha (iovernmetit has had to depend upon. Hneretary Mayer to-day deplored the farl that parallela have been drawn between tha destruction of the Mains and ths mlaliapa to the French warships Liberie and Jena, Both the latter were due probably to the deterioration and spontaneous ooxnburtlon of a certain kind ef smokeless powder, but Secretary Meyer haa oavuaed an investigation ta be made Into the ordnance bureau rec ords and has established the fact that no smokeless powder of tins kind was In the Matne'e magaxlnes. 'This," said Secretary Meyer. "If a matter of record in the bureau of ordnance, where an accurate record la kept of the distribution of all powder belonging to the navy."
