The accident occured on the Post

the occupants were able to alight
from the vehicle. J. Cohen was
taken to the. Stamford hospital. where
five stitchrs were taken in his right
leg. No complaints were, made by
either partiés. consequently no ar-
rests were made by Darlen authori—
ties. It is believed by an operator of
a passing truck that the two‘ motor
vehicles were racing, which probably
was the cause of the accident.

pointinl.r of the office of City-Clerk in
their power. it is said that Stephen

General Leonard Wood retired today
from active service in the Army. to

terminating voluntarily more than
thirty-six years of distinguished mili—

by insistence of administration offi-

the refusal of Congress to permit him
to do so while continuing his active
army status. 7
In announcing the General’s retire-
