Motorman Who Is Held On Homicide Charge-Accident in Front of His Home. Just as Mrs. Rosalie Franzpane, 58 years old, of 58 Floyd street, left the home of her son, Pasquale, at Fifth avenue and Seventy-third street, shortly after midnight this morning, a Fifth avenue trolley car, going north, bowled along at a speed of about 25 miles an hour. Mrs. Franzpane, unwarned by bell or shout, according to witnesses, crossed directly in front of the car and was hurled to one side.

The speed of the car wasn't slackened A bit, Captain Edward Gallagher of the Fort Hamilton station was told by Harold Peralta of 7125 Fifth avenue, and Thomas O'Loughlin of 7124 Fifth avenue, but the car continued on for three blocks to Bay Ridge avenue. There it was stopped so that a switch might be turned and then, the witnesses said, it went on at high speed again. Mrs. Franzpane remained in a crumpled heap at the side of the trolley tracks. Dr.

Stack, who was called from the Norwegian Hospital, found that she had suffered a fracture of the skull and internal injuries. She was taken to the hospital, where she died at 2:45. Captain Gallagher and Patrolman Taylor had meanwhile learned from Peralta and O'Loughlin that the number of the car that struck Mrs. Franzpane was 1494. They discovered that this car was manned by Edward Regan, conductor, of 663 Fifty -fourth street, and Michael Latschauer, motorman, of 7307 Fifth avenue.

When they went to arrest Latschauer, the hunt led them back directly to the scene of the accident. Mrs. Franzpane was killed in front of the motorman's home.

Eagle Bureau, 608 Fourteenth Street. Washington, June 5-In the seventy-nine days up to and including June 2, last, 8,752 recruits were secured for the United States Army. These rescruits came under the increase authorized by Congress on March 10. During th eseventy-nine days in which the 8,752 recruits were secured the numerous recruiting stations throughout the country received a total of 39,154 applications. Of this number, only the 8,752 were found to requirements fixed by the War Department.

The Adjutant General's office is unable to give figures at this time showing the number of discharges from the Regular Army during the seventynine days period referred to. Adjutant General McCain, who is in charge of the recruiting service, says, however, that the recruiting ten is running anywhere from 500 1,000 more a month than the discharges. He is endeavoring now to secure data from the several Army headquarters in an effort. to make a comparison of the recruits and discharges. When asked today if the number of recruits being secured for the Army was satisfactory, General McCain replied: "It is to me, because I know of the difficulties in getting new men.

Some criticism is being made, but none of it comes from persons familiar with the work of army recruiting. This is a bad time of the year to recruit. There is plenty of work in the industrial plants of the United States, and the farmers need all the help they can get. I expect to see the rate of recruiting take a jump next fall. am out to get the additional men authorized by Congress and I will not be satisfied until I get them.

I am open to suggestions from any source as to how to improve the recruiting service of the Army. One thing that I believe will help is the provision in the new Army bill appointing the postmasters of the country as recruiting agents. They will work hard to get recruits and will prove a big help There are 30.0000 postmasters. One recruit a year each bring the Army nearly to its full strength." BUSHWICK HOME SOLD.
