"Poland is a great admirer cf
America. It will ne'er forget Its gen-

what Poland wants is food and guns
for its army to fight the bolshe-
viks. It also wants to build up the
nucleus of a Polish artillery force.
“tt is for this reason we wish to
buy American light guns If possible.
I understand Ami rlca Is agreeable to
selling some of them to us rather
than go to the trouble and expense
of shipping them hack to America.
We may also buy many of their
rifles.
"We are not Interested in buying
heavy guns owing to the fact that
roads in Poland are very bad.
“But the purchase of guns, for
which I am prepared to spend be-
tween thirty and forty million dol-
lars, Is not the only tling up want.
Poland needs food, machinery and
many other things. Much of this we
expect to buy in America."

(A mass of evidence is being
accumulated against Landru, the
French “Bluebird." Special cor-
respondent here draws interest-
ing comparisons with the “Brides,

that let to Crippen's doom. The
hypnotic powers possessed by
Landru are an important ele-
ment.)
PARM—The more the Padia police
investigate the Bluebeard crimes—
the killing of eleven women and a
boy—the more akin, --es it become
to the methods of Smith, the famous
"Brides in the Bath” murderer.
Evidence is now forthcoming from
women whom Landru failed to en-
mesh in his inhuman tolls. They tell
of the fascination of the monsier
how he repellSd them, while at the
same time they were almost Irre-
sistibly drawn toward him in love
and affection. They hated and
loved h'm nt the same time.
He had a wonderful charm snd
manner, they say. All agree that
his greatest attraction was in his
eyes. He only had to get some
women i.y themselves and look in-
tently at them, and they were lost
forever.
COWED WOMEN
What that power was Is not known,
and luckily few men possess It.
George Smith, the brides in the bath
murderer, possessed it in no small
measure, and more than one of his
victims bore striking testimony to
the power of his glance.
There is a story of one of the poor
women he slew which was never told
in court, for the obvious reason she
wns not alive to do so.
But she told it to a neighbor, who
never forgot if. Smith was in the
habit of getting this woman alone
with him in a room and a tarn g at
her for two or three hours alone.
'By the time that ordeal was over
the poor creature hardly knew
whether she was alive or dead It
ertainly took her some few days to
recover by which time Smith re
pea'ed the neuseous dose. In the
end she followed him about the
rireet like a cowed dog, hot with
less spirit.

The accident happened shortly be-
fore 7 o'clock Just as many care,
carrying over 200 workers, were en-
tering the tunnel, taking the mea
to their places of employment.
More men died from inhaling thf
bks fumes than from the force of
the explosion. Some were blown to
hits. Many bodies were taken from
a ditch of water which ran along-
side the car track. s
Identification of the dead wea Im
possible at a late hour. Many bod fee
were removed to morgues so badly

to have been a trolley wire It Is

the blast.
Sixty bodies had been removed to
morgues at 10 o'clock this morning.
This number does not make up thn

I odles of many cthere have been
taken to their homes.
The catastrophe Is said to be one
of the worst that has ever occurred
here. It happened In direct viola-
tion of luw. It is alleged. The men
are permitted to ride to work In
