(Special to TIk Times.) Wilmington, Dec. 27 While- on her way across the street to show u play mate a horn gotten from a Christmas tree, Adell Knwan, the 4-veur-nld daughter of Sir. and Mrs. Newton Row an, was Instantly killed in front of its home at Dclgadn, a. suburb, shortly af ter 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon by being struck by an automobile owned :ind driven by N. B. Hankln, a banker of this city, who was returning with his wif and daughter' and a friend from Wrightsville .Sound. The front wheel of the automobile struck the child in the back of the head. splitting it in twain, parts of the brain belli scattered here and there for some dis tance. ' According- to the infornv.it ion fciveti by those who witnessed the accident. the car was running at a moderate rate of speed when the accident occurred. The child had just returned to her home from the Christmas tree and had started across the street to show to a little playmate the horn she had re ceived anions other thing from Santa Clans.: She halted for a niouiiiit in the center of the roiul, her face toward the city, entirely ignorant of the big machine bearing, down upon her from the rear. Mr. Rankin noticed the child in the rond. and when he realized that she was not going to move from ttie path of the machine he exerted every possible effort to bring the car to a standstill and divert its course. The distance was so short that the speed of the auto was checked but little, if my, but he succeeded in diverting the machine to one side, but not quite enough to prevent the distressing ac cident. The child was struck in the back of the head, death resulting instantly.- , The car ran on for about 25 feet be fore Mr. Rankin was able to bring it to a stand-still. Stopping the automo bile, lie returned to where the body of the child lay. It was a horrible siglft and Mr. Rankin was visibly af fected. A sheet was secured anil the body wrapped in it, Mrs. Rankin re mained at Delgado. while Mr. Rank in came to the city for Dr. ('. n. Hell, the coroner. After the arrivaj of the coroner, the little bodv was removed to the home of AViUiara Skipper across the street from the home of the parents of the child. Mrs. Rowan mother, of the child is just recovering from an illness and it was decided unwise to take the bodv home before being prepared for burial. From what could be --learned from those who witnessed the tragedy, Mr. Rankin could not have averted the ac cident. Some state that bis machine was running as slow at 10 miles an hour. Some one told the coroner that the little child was being .accompanied across the road by a little daughter of Superintendent W. A.. Woods,' and that when she saw Hie car bearing down upon them released her hold and re traced her steps, thinking her com panion would also recross the road. hut the little one was evidently so en grossed in the thoughts of her Christ mas presents that she didn't realize that she,: was in the slightest danger. The funeral was hold toduv. LOOKING FOR' ROCKKFF.I I.FR. Mania- Shoots at Keeper of Rocke feller Estate-, Also at Policeman. (By Leased Wire to The Times.) Cleveland, O.; Doc. 2" "Get the maniac" was the order given to the Cleveland police today when a hunt was begun for a man who exchanged a number of shots last night with Bert Knapp, keeper o John D. Rock efeller's Forest Hill estate and Mar shal Stamberger of East Cleveland while he evidently thought he was shooting at Mr. Rockefeller. After emptying his revolver the man fled through the grounds and the police this morning tried to trace the footsteps. According to the story related by Mr. Knapp, today he saw the intruder as he climbed over a tall fence. In stead ofheedingtiie challenge toslop, he commenced to. shoot towards Mr. Knapp. A telephone message brought Marshal Stamberger and the dement ed man then turned his revolver against the officer. He escaped ow ing to the darkness. While Mr. Rockefeller is in the east. Marshal Stamberger placed a police guard about the place for fear the maniac would return and do ser ious damage. The fear that he might attack other persons about Cleveland added Impetus to the police search which went on with vigor today. The police took Knapp's descrip tion of the man and today visited various institutions for tne insane about Cleveland to learn if any per son answering the description had been discharged recently.

STETSON LEADER But Denies She Wants to Succeed Mrs. Eddy llt'r OpiMiiu'iits Say She is Waging n Secret Campaign Anainst the Or- ganiatioii of (lie Mother Church .Mrs. Stetson "Spiritually Kit." (By Leased Wire to The Times.) New York, Dec. 27 Despite a statement issued by Mrs. Augusta B. Stetson in which site denies that she seeks the leadership left vacant by the death of Mrs. Maty Baker (1. Ed dy, opponents of the ex-communicated leader declared today that she was waging a secret campaign to de stroy the lower of the mother church directors in Boston and to have her self elevated to the position ol chief spiritual adviser of t'.ie culr. They -assert iliat .Mrs. Stetson's friends tirue that Mrs. Eddy never intended that the mother church or ganization . survive her and they quote from her writings to show that the Boston directors have served the purpose of their organization and should dissolve, tneir reign to be "succeeded by love, truth and divine light as radiated by those who have become spiritually lit." ; . "'':.. : .Mrs. Stetson is regarded by her followers, of course, as pre-eminently in the lead of the 'spiritually tit." One thing considered in her favor is that she Ims alwavs maintained her loyalty to Mrs. Eddy and lier teachings, -although-not friendly to ward the directors, who have always been credited will) being alraid ol her power. The first authorized statement of Mrs. Stetson's. position since she was ex-communicated by the Christian Science board ol directors was made public, today. She denies knowing anything about plans to disorganize the church. -or to elevate her in its councils. " - "None of my students and close friends," she says, "ever heard ine say that 1 aim at leadership in the' Christian Science organization, be cause 1 have never said it, nor do I aspire to any such position.

She sets forth fully her belief in the adequacy- of a full understanding- or Initii to triumph over "tne carnal mind" and says that t;te battle be tween truth and the unreal is inevi table. : "Mrs. Stetson is merely wishing to pose as' martyr." said one .official ot the church who requested that his name be not used at present.

The purpose of her letter is to it rouse other enemies of the church to join her in her move ment. She will not succeed. "Her statement is ridiculous and inconsistent. lier contentions that the church itself does not typify the faith and that Mrs. Eddy looked rather to individualism than to a church body is plainly absurd, for Mrs. Eddy left the better part of her wealth to the church.
