be found necessary 10 the preparation OF
series OF articles for four Of the largest
newspapers OF the East. giving investors

bilities OF the West.
Mr.. King. with a similar party. was In
the city last September, but while making
visit in Tacoma he was taken III VITA
appendicitis and compelled TO submit 20
an operation. which left him in a very
weak condition. When he had recovered
he returned to his home in Boston 10

that he feels equal TO again taking up the
work
u have come back to Seattle" said Mfr.
King last evening. Ito resume our work
just where we dropped II and this time
feel assured that II VIII reach completion.
My own Illness. should I suffer a relapse,
viii not be serious hindrance to the
work OF the party. as the members are
all thoroughly competent men and will he
able TO push the work 10 completion I'M
der any circumstances
We were just beginning to get matters
in shape for work when Illness overlook
me and OF course after undergoing the
operation l was unable to do anything
more for the time being. We left ut once
for Boston. and on our return came
straight through 10 Seattle making only
one stop ON our 5stsp-miie trip"
The Idea OF a series OF articles to be
gathered In this manner originated with
Mr.. King. 1t IL the Wish OF the members
to prepare an illustrated series that VIII

fact that the Potomac company Vas not
in a position, owing to the law, to lay
down conduits. Mr.. Crosby, fowe-er,
agreed to these prices if the committee
would urge through Congress the Nc
MILAN bill giving them the proper power.
Mr.. Dyrenforth stated that the committee
then went before the District Commits

RELEASED FROM PRISON.
A VIrgIninn Liberated From Confine-
ment in Mexico.

The State Department yesterday re-
ceived a message from Vice Consul Car
roll. at Monterey, Mex, stating that Hun
ter E. Golding an American citizen, who
was recently sentenced to eight years IN
Mexican penitentiary, had been re-
leased.
Golding was employed as a brakeman on
a Mexican railway, and was charged with
causing the death of a Mexican. who was
stealing ride on his train, by throwing
him off the car. At a rehearing Of the case
1t transpired that Golding had nothing to
do with ejecting the man from the train,
two of the trainmen testifying TO that ef-
feet. The sentence of the lower court was
therefore reversed by the Supreme Court,
to which an appeal was made, and he was
given his freedom.
A pathetic incident In connection with
the case was the death of Golding's son
while he was imprisoned. Through the
intercesson of Mrs Dodge. an American,
the father was allowed to attend his boys
funeral, for which he was deeply grateful.
The United States Consul General to Mex
leo and also the United States Ambassador
to Mexico were untirng In their EFFORTS
TO secure Justice for the accused man.
Golding is of a weli-known Virginia fam
lily. and Senator Martin. of that State, has
evinced warm interest in his case.

Since the publication in The Times a
few days ago OF the list Of tracks and
parts OF lines abandoned by the Washing
ton Traction and Electric Company, at
tention has been called TO the peculiar
circumstances surrounding the disuse Of
the " Street line in Southeast Washing
ton. This line of street railway forming
q part CT the Anacostia and Potomac Riv-
er railroad, and formerly operated by the
company. is practically the only line for
a large part OF that section of the city.
Its abandonment. II is claimed. has left
all that portion of Washington in the vi
entity CT Washington Asylum and the
Congressional Cemetery without street
railway facilities.
What is known as the NJ Street line be-
gins at Second and Canal streets south
west. as shown On the map OF abandoned
railways In the Office of the Engineer
Commissioner. and runs along Second
Street to NJ Street and thence to Elev-
enth Street southeast. and thence over
other streets eastward to q point near
the entrance to the Congressional Gene
terry.
The matter OF the abandonment OF this
important branch of the Anacostia sys-
TEN was called particularly to the attcn-
tion of the COMMISSIONERS recently by a
communication from William H. Ram
sey. of 621 Street northeast. who en-
CURED of the Commissioners whether the
company was not required by the terms
Of its charter to run cars over the II
Street line.
For long period Of time" he writes.
perhaps two or three years, the Anacos-
tia and Potomac River Railroad Company
Ens permitted its line of street railway
known as the NJ Street line to lie un-
Used. Will you kindly advise me wheth-
sr the terms of the charter Of the said
railroad company permit It thus to ne
Glect the franchise granted 1t by Con-
eress? Is II not required By the terms
Of the charter or by law to continue TO
run cars over the said branch road, as
shove described"
