RAILROAD TRANSFERS.
Mr.. SchOepf Says He Will Resort to
Legal Measures If Necessary.

The difficulties being experienced by the
various local street railway companies in
making the transfer arrangements directed
by the act of Congress approved August =
last will, according to Mr.. w. Kelsey
Schoepf, vice president and general man
ager of the lexington and Belt line COM
panies, be ended shortly in a summary
manner.
TT is my opinion that the resolution OF
Representative Baker, said Mr.. Schoepf to
a Star reporter this afternoon, which was
offered in the House and passed. calling on
the Commissioners for information regard
ing the exchange of transfers by the street
railway companies of the city, viii result
in but one of two thipgs-either in the
Commissioners applying to the courts Tor
a writ of mandamus compelling the
roads to transfer as provided in the act
of Congress, approved August ., 1894, or
else in Congress passing a further act IN
which it will more than likely be provided
that penalty be named should any road
fail to comply with the law in this respect.
My belief is that the failure of the Com
missioners to take steps in this matter
" as due to the fact that no penalty was
named in the original act
Unless action is taken by one or the
other of the bodies mentioned, Mr.
Schoepf continued, Il will certainly apply
to the Supreme Court of the District Of
Columbia against the companies with
which we connect to compel them to form
transfer arrangements"

A letter suggesting that the government
at once send a special annexation envoy to

Dole and the executive council on Decem-
Der 81 by the American League. The petit
ton sets forth that since the question of
the isfau Is was in Congress before many
facts nave come to light and many men,
hers of the Senate and House have changed
their minds upon the subject. In every in
stance the alteration of view has been
from hostility to friendliness for Hawaii.
Even the administration now has able and
1ustiiiable grounds for treating the matter
differently, and is now i'll possession of re-
liable data. In 1898 1t acted upon mSin-
formation. The petition further states that
the sending of another commission VIII

Range and Intensity of the Cold
Wave.

The cold wave which struck this city
yesterday started in the northwest, and
has produced almost blizzard in some
sections. Heavy snowfalls occurred in the
west. Trains were delayed and much suf-
fering was caused among the poor.
AT Cleveland. Ohio, the wind blew fifty
two miles hour. Block Island had
gale of forty-eight miles hour. At AL
bany thirty-eisht miles were recorded.
PASSPORT, Me-; Northfeld, VT, and Allan
tic City, n. j.. each had thirty-six miles,
were vigorously famed by a thirty mile
breeze.
The freeze up extended east of the Mis-
sssippi from Detroit to New Orleans and
from Maine to Florida. San Francisco had
a temperature of 81 degrees while the
thermometer at Jacksonville Fla, recorded
SO degrees.
Other low temperatures at S D. m. yester-
day in the south were: Charleston, S. c.,
80 degrees; Wilmington. N. c.. "a degrees;
Montgomery, Ala, 80 degrees; Mobile, Ala,
81 degrees; Atlanta, Ga, % degrees Sa-
vannah, Ga, 30 degrees; Norfolk, Va, 20

Among the coolest places in the country
were Oswego and Rochester, n. Y, and St
Vincent Mimi, where the thermometer
registered but degrees above zero In
Canada the temperature was Is degrees

with snow at the latter place.
The wave is apparently moving off to

Galley in the chair. After minutes OF last
meeting were read and approved the special
committee appointed to investigate in re-
gard to the matter OF free delivery by mail
carrier, reported, through its chairman,
that the matter had been thoroughly In
vestgated, and the committee was of opin-
ion that if the free delivery system which
has been extended to Tenleytown proved
successful and popular it would not be long
before the system would be in operation
in Brightwood.
Mr.. Coz presented set of resolutions in
regard to a change in the post office at
Brightwood from a fourth-class office to
that of a station, in order to afford the
residents a more direct and quicker service

Electric Railway Company, who Informed
him that for the present 1T would be I'M
possible for the company to comply with
the wishes of the association in the matter
of put ting on more cars, etc.

A notice YVES posted on the doors of the
Dover National Bank today announcing
that the institution had suspended, and that
by order of the board of directors the
banks affairs had been taken in charge by
Bank Examiner c. NJ. Dorr.
Dorr said that Cashier Isaac f. AbbottS
accounts were badly mixed and there was
a shortage which might amount to between
S6o,eJ and $4,000. He could not say defin-
itely how much the defalcation would
amount to, as the books have not yet been
thoroughly examined.
The bank is about twenty-five years old,
and is rated as one of the most substantial
in the city. Its president is e. y. Brewster.
Abbott has been cashier OF the bank for
about twenty years, and is one of the most
prominent residents of the city. He has
