1914. 3 WRANGLE OVER BODY OF VICTIM IN CRASH Wife Says Woman Killed With Molostowsky Broke Up Her Home. WIDOW WINS FIGHT FOR BODY. Bronx Man and Sister-in-Law Killed When Auto Crashes Into Train at Queens. (Special to The Eagle.) Jamaica, July 6-A sharp wrangle between the widow of Samuel Molostowsky, who was killed when his autocrashed into an electric train Queens, last night, and Jacob a brother of the dead man, for possession of the body in the Coroner's office Jamaica today, brought out the fact that Molostowsky been separated from his wife for a month because of his attentions to Miss Bessie Zatulove, his sister-in-law, who was with him when the accident occured and who was also killed.

Mrs. Molostowsky's attorney, Ezra Gottlieb, stated that the occupants of the racing automobile which sped away after the crash, were David Zatulove, a brother of the dead woman with. friends. coroner Issued a permit to the widow to remove her husband's body, deciding that she had prior right. He refused to turn over the effects of the dead man until letters of administration were procured.

Another sister-in-law, Irene Zatulove, 80, who lived with her sister, Bessie, was badly hurt. The automobile, not responding to its driver's efforts to halt It, crashed through the safety gates at the Long Island Railroad crossing at Hempstead turnpike and crashed into the side of a passing train. Molostowsky is said to have been racing with the driver of a bigger touring oar. Ag the two vehicles, speeding at forty miles an hour, approached the crossing, James Thomas, the gateman, lowered the safety gates for a Brooklyn-bound electric train that had just pulled out of Queens depot at 8:03. The big car stopped several feet from the gates.

But the smaller one did not even slacken speed, although it could be seen that Molostowsky was doing his best to stop it. It crashed through one of the gates. Then Molostowsky tried to turn sharply so as to run alongside the train without striking it. But he was unsuccessful, and with a crash that could be heard for blocks, the touring bar smashed into the side of the second car of the three-car train. 'The rear shoe of the second car caught in the mudguard of the automobile and dragged it and its three occupants for 300 feet along the tracks.

The contact of the shoe and mudguard caused a short circuit, and when the train stopped a there was a blinding flash and flames shot along the under sides of the second and third cars. Finally the flames spread to the wreck of the automobile and the gasoline tank blew up with a roar. Bodies Taken From Wreckage. But meanwhile the dead and dying nad been rescued, at least from the threatening flames. Mounted Sergeant Edward Freese and Patrolmen Albert Goss and John of the Jamaica station, had heard the crash bf wreckage beside the train.

They and ran down the tracks to the heap found Molostowsky and his sister-inlaw pinned under the debris of the automobile. The policemen quickly lifted the wreckage and each picked up one of the victims and carried them back to the crossing. The man had been killed instantly and crushed beyond recognition. Dr. Schoenberg of the Jamaica Hospital rushed the two women to that instilution, where Bessie Zatulove died half an hour later.

Her sister has af possible fracture of the skull, Internal injuries, broken collar bone, right hip lower Jaw. Her left thumb was torn off. The Queens firemen were called out to extinguish blazing cars and burning automobile wreckage. The pasengers in the train had become panic stricken at the collision, flash of, electricity and the crackling of the flames, which, however, did not burst Into the cars, and they made a rush for the doors. Conductor John Maxey, of 21 Bryant avenue, Jamaica, restrained them managed to get them all out of the train uninjured.

Later the train picked them up again and proceeded, having been little damA aged by the fire. Coroner Carl Vogel heard the crash at his home in Queens and hurried to the scene of the tragedy. He ordered the body of Molostowsky removed to Moran's undertaking establishment. He also ordered the arrest of James Thomas, the crosing gateman, and Eugene Kisam, of 4944 Beaufort street, Jamaica, the motorman of the train, on technical charges bf homicide, although he said he did not consider them in any way to blame. Later he went to the Jamaica police station and paroled both men' until they are wanted as witnesses at the inquest.

While Mounted Sergeant Freese was on his way to the scene of the accident, his horse became unmanageable and bolted. The animal crashed through another portion of the still lowered safety gates and threw Freese heavily to the ground. After he had finished his work at the accident he reported sick at the police station and went to his home in Glendale, sufferIng from cuts and bruises. BOY MYSTERIOUSLY SHOT. Chamberlain Wounded in Foot--Does Not Know How.

While visiting friends in Staten Island, Saturday afternoon, Armon Chamberlain, 11 old, of 336 Thirty-seventh street, was mysteriously shot in the right foot with a bullet. He said nothing of his injury until yesterday afternoon, when his condition became serious. He was removed to the Norwegian Hospital by Dr. Matthews. The police of the Fourth avenue station are making an investigation to ascertain the identity of the boy's assailant, whether the snooting was accidental or not, as it was against the law to use revolvers or similar firearms in celebrating Independence Day.

The boy says he does not know how he received the injury, and first discovered he was shot when his foot began to pain him on his way home on the terryboat. FLED FROM RANDALL'S. Brooklyn Boy and Two Others Escaped Over New Bridge. Early this morning Patrolman Maloney came upon three boys seated around a box containing several of milk from which they were drinking in front of the grocery at 527 Columbus avenue, Manhattan, He questioned the boys, and learned that they nad made their escape from Randalls Island by going over the bridge under construetion leading to Manhattan. Charles Guile, the oldest of the three is 16 years old, has been an inmate of the Randalls Island institution for six years.

The other two, Thomas Carr of 4557 Third avenue. Manhattan, and Irving Davidson of 488 Grand street, Brooklyn, are held truants. PAINLESS BIRTHS CALLED IMPOSSIBLE Brooklyn and Manhattan Obstetricians Say Freiberg Treatment Is Impracticable. LOCAL MEN TO INVESTIGATE. Drs.

Brinsmade, Dickinson and Polak STill Inquire Into "Twilight Sleep." The three Brooklyn medical men, John O. Polak, Robert L. Dickinson and W. B. Brinsmade, who sailed Wednesday last for a tour of study on and inspection at the clinics of the great medical colleges of Europe, will visit Freiberg, Germany.

It is understood that while there they will make inquiries into the use of "Twilight Sleep," a method of treating women at childbirth that has attracted much attention in this country. is claimed that by the use of two drugs, scopolamin and morphine administered under a method developed at the University of Baden, at Freiberg, childbirth is possible without suffering. Dr. Bernard Konig and Professor Karl Gauss, are the specialists in charge a at the Freiberg Hospital, and they make wonderful claims for their method. Recently "Twilight Sleep" has been extensively exploited in this country through magazine articles and other devices promoted by the Freiberg specialists.

Intense interest has been aroused in it among women. Brooklyn doctors, and gynecologists generally, have been beseiged for information on the subject, and have been urged to adopt the new method. It is learned by inquiry among specialists in obstetrics and gynecology that little credence 1s placed in the remarkable stories that have come over from Germany regarding the marvels of "Twilight Sleep." In fact specialists of Manhattan and Brooklyn, who were interviewed generally frowned on the new treatment and severely condemned the widespread currency given to its alleged wonders as misleading and harmful in the extreme. Dr. Dickinson made an investigation of the method on a visit he made to Freiberg last year.

It is known that he was not favorably impressed. The other Brooklyn doctors with him on are expected to make inquiries also. It is claimed that cases have been successfully at Freiberg, the number including many American women, alleged to have made the journey specially to come under the care of the German specialists. Local medical men are a unit in declaring that the Freiberg method is certain to raise false hopes and lead to mischief. The Idea 19 not new.

Scopolamin, drug used to deaden pain before more modern anesthetics were found, is the most powerful depressent of the nervous system known to medicine. Years ago It was commonly used to quiet the violent insane in asylums. Although it will ameliorate pain at childbirth, its use is declared to be dangerous, and it is denied that it produces the "Twilight Sleep" so glowingly described. Most of the specialists interviewed are eminent not only in the Greater City, but have national reputations. Brooklynites among them include the following: Dr.

O. P. Humpstone of the Jewish and Seney hospitals, Dr. William P. Pool, associate professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the Long Island Medical College Hospital; Dr.

A. A. Hussey, the chief operating obstetrician and gynecologist at the Brooklyn Hospital, and Dr. William H. Carey, also one of the chief specialists at the Brooklyn Hospital.

Brooklynites Find Treatment Unsatisfactory, Views of New Yorkers given include those of Dr. Ross McPherson, chief obstretrician at the Lying-In Hospital, affiliated with a half dozen Manhattan hospitals; Dr. J. D. Voorhees of the Sloan Hospital for Women, Dr.

E. T. Hull of the Lincoln Hospital; Dr. J. Milton Moffatt, a specialist of renown of many Dr.

John B. Buehler, a representative hospitals and a other institutions, and of the osteopathic obatretricians. Drs. Humpstone, Carey and Robert L. Dickinson are among Brooklyn specialists who have tried the new method and found it wanting.

Dr. Humpstone said: "We tried the method here but did not get the results claimed for it at Freiberg. The treatment is safe only in selected cases and would prove a danger if used promiscuously because of the varying susceptibilities of patients. "These powerful drugs have such a depressing effect on the heart and circulation that if it becomes necessary to assist the stork the operation may prove more than serious. There is a danger of children coming into the world asphyxiated when scopolamin is used.

We find that women do suffer pain while under the treatment, though they are not impressed with it after- ward." Difficulties of Standardizing Dose of the Drug. Dr. Carey also made a point of the a danger of attempting to standardize the dose that might be given where such powerful drugs are administered. "In particularly susceptible cases fatal effects on the unborn might be expected," he said. "While the drug serves to obliterate recollection of suffering afterward, it at times causes delirium while the pain lasts, requiring restraint of the patient in order to guard against upsetting of precautions against aseptic poisoning Also, such medication favors to an unknown extent post-partum hemorrhage.

"One of the most important arguments against the method is the resultant clouding of the symptoms which serve as the physician's harbingers in conducting his case. We all use drugs when possible to ameliorate pain, and with more gratifying results generally than are those of this method." Dr. Hussey declared that while theoretically the position of the German specialists was sound, be had found the working out of the practical details to be inadvisable for general use. "Although all practitioners ameliorate it whenever possible, en it is a fact, hard but true, that the perception of pain is necessary to the proper conduct of the case," he explained. He also made the points as to the danger of fatality to the child resulting from the use of the two drugs, the risks of an overdose, and disputed the claimed relief for the patient.

Dr. Pool said he might admit the use of the method in selected and carefully examined cases only. False Hopes Raised by Reports. The objections of the Manhattan specialists to the treatment were as emphatic as those of their Brooklyn colleagues. Dr.

Hull pointed to the danger of the general acceptance of the claims malla for the treatment and referred to the fiasco of the Friedmann tuberculosis in the same connection. cure, good doctor would add to the burden of handicaps imposed on both mother 0114 child," he said. "Yet to administer such drugs would add to the already both of depresse! condition of them. I had a case last night in which I was just able to get the baby breathing on account of the mother's depressed condition. So that in this particular case I am satisfied that those strong would have changed to the fatal the almost imperceptible line in these canes between life and death." Effect of Morphine Was to Retard Breathing.

Says Dr. McPherson. Dr. Ross McPherson of 20 West Fiftieth street Manhattan, said; "I am BEHIND THE MASK FREE SPEECH Astor Trading reluctant to express a definite opinion on the claims of the Freiberg special1sts at this time because I haven't had the opportunity to examine them carefully. When we first began to use the method in this country a number of years ago I did not find the results successful.

I found that the babies didn't do as well as in cases where scopolamin and morphine were not used. The effect of the morphine was to retard breathing. Of course the claims for the method are similar to those put forward for most new, or supposedly new ideas. It was much the same in the matter of the recent widely heralded tuberculosis cure." Dr. J.

Milton Mabbott, of 19 Fifth avenue, Manhattan, said: "I know the treatment, but I have always been inclined to use plenty of chloroform where conditions warranted in preference to it. I understand, however, that the treatment has been greatly improved by giving one dose of morphine only, that administered with the first dose of scopolamin. The latter only is repeated, owing to the susceptibility of infants to the effect of morphine. The latter slows down the infant's breathing, as soon as it is absorbed from the mother's circulation."

Woody and Jacob H. Shaffer have been presented to Attorney General James C. McReynolds as candidates to succeed Colonel William J. Youngs as United District Attorney in Brooklyn. Shaffer 18 the the Brooklyn branch of the Jeffersonian Alliance, Bert Hanson's anti-Murphy organization, and Woody is baoked up by a group of Democratio lawyers.

News of Woody's candidacy has surprised the alliance leaders, who, claim to be the real representatives independent Democracy in Brooklyn, and are jealous of the efforts of other of independents who attempt to groups get recognition from the National Administration. The alliance has been pressing Shaffer's candidacy for some time, but despite their utmost efforts they have discovered that Woody, with only the support of a small group of independents, has been receiving just as much, if not more, consideration at Washington than their own candidate. His name has been presented to Senator James A. O'Gorman and is described as being "not unacceptable" to him. The Democratic lawyers who are said to be Woody's chief supporters are described as "men of considerable influin Manhattan and Brooklyn law ence circles," although their names are being kept secret.

They are said to be principally Democrats who, though owing no allegiance to Tammany Hall, have not allied themselves with the Jeffersonian Alliance or any other anti-Murphy, crusade. Woody is a friend of Martin W. Littleton and several other prominent Manhattan Independent Democrats. He lives at the Montauk Club, and is the brother of Charles L. Woody, counsel for the B.

R. T. Shaffer is a lawyer, with offices in Manhattan. He lives in the First Assembly District, is a member of the Kings County Executive Committee of the Jeffersonian Alliance, and has been indorsed by that body for Colonel Youngs' place.

METER TWINS CANNOT AGREE. Baro Is 'Way Up. So Thermo Comes Down, and That's Why We Shiver. Al high barometer means a low temperature, and htat's what all the trouble is.

The barometers on the bridges of a dozen ships off to the northeast are very high today, and that's why New York is about as near to shivering as one can get in July. The high barometer aren has been swept over this part of the country by northeast winds, which come straight off the ocean, and the result 1s that the old saying about "as hot as the Fourth of July' has been frozen stiff. Today, although not a record breaker was cooler than either Saturday Sunday. It was degrees at 5 o'clock this morning, and by noon, the tenperature had risen only to 68. The sun kept behind the clouds and refused to warm things up, Moreover, the well-known Weather Man, who usually cheers by promising just the kind of weather we want, said solmenly from his perch at the top of the Whitehall Building, that there was no immediate prospect of the weather warming up.

"The weather will stay cloudy, and we'll have occasional showers this afternoon and evening to cool things. he said coldly. The normal average temperature for July 6, is 73 degrees. The coldest July 6 ever recorded was in 1882, when the temperature was only 57. But as July temperatures go, today might be a whole lot worse, for in 1873 thermometer stood at 50, so that everyone was frightened, and the price of coal went up, and straw hats came down.

Yesterday was the coldest July 5 since 1895, when the temperature was 60. Just to cheer New Yorkers up, be It known that the upper Missouri valley, and the Canadian Northwest are also having a spell of cold weather. In Portland, Oregon, it was only 54 degrees at 8 o'clock this morning, and the people in San Francisco went to work with a temperature of 52. Old millionaires at Key West mopped their plutocratic brows with A temperature of 84, the highest, and lots of people out West decided to light the furnace when they found the thermometer at 48, the lowest. From Manitoba to western Texas, over the Plains States, it is moderately warm.

"There's nothing in a northeast wind, except fog, rain, and cold," the Weather Man explained. "It the wind shifts to the south, the temperature will rise." So that all Brooklyn folk who find it too chilly to be comfortable, are ordered to sip a mint julep while humming and hunch for a south wind. The Rev. Dr. William B.
