Gil of Women, which have brought to
the capital hundreds OF intelligent and
attractive women from all parts of the
country. While most of these organi-
cations have a serious purpose and the
delegates in the main are thoughtful
women. these gatherings have their
pleasant social side. Also there are
displayed many smart and pretty
gowns. The meeting of the Daughters
of the American Revolution is socially
the gayest of all these assemblies. as it
is In some other respects the liveliest.
During the presence OF the Daughters

OPERATORS TELL
 OF REIGN OF TERROR
In Testimony Before the Strike Com
 mission Yesterday.

Scranton, Pa, December 1S.-The coal strike commission listened today Io further testimony tending to show that a reign of terror existed in the anthra- cite coal fields during the five and a half months of the mine workers strike. About a score of witnesses were called. They told of serious boycotts, brutal attacks by crowds ol men, women and boys, and an attempt to burn the house of a non-union man. In most instances the witnesses testifi- ed that the alleged offenders were members of the miners union. Law yers for the miners objected frequently to the admission of the testimony of hearsay, and sometimes objected be- cause of the irrelevancy of certain other statements.
 Chairman Gray said the commission was not bound by any strict rules or evidence but asked the counsel to con fine themselves in examining witnesses so far as possible to direct evidence. He said it was too difficult in trying to prove that boycOtts existed to get information on the subject. The com mission, he said, wanted to know, whether reign of terror existed in the anthracite. region, and could not get that information if strict rules of tne evidence were applied

EASTERN RAILWAY
 0F NEW MEXICO
Articles for the Santa Fe's New Line
 Filed Yesterday.

Los Angeles, Cal. December 1S.- President F.. r. Ripley and associates have incorporated the Eastern Railway of New Mexico. The charter Is for a period of fifty years. It .is intended to construct a line from a point at CT near Rio Puesto or the Santa Fe Pa cifc in Valencia county, in New Mexi- co. The road will run in a southeasteT- ly direction through Valencia and GuadalCupe counties, New Mexico. to a point connecting with the Pecos Val ley 6, Northeastern railway at or near Texico near the Texas and New MeXi- co boundary. The estimated length of the line is 26j miles. Branch lines will be constructed to tap many sections.
 The headquarters of the new com pany will be Los Angeles. Under its charter the new company has seven di- reCtors including President Ripley. Victor Mora,vetz and Edward c. Der wind of the Santa Fe and Henry l.. Waldo, D. E. Twitchell, r. C. Fox and Charles A. Spires, the three last of Las Vegas. The officers of the incor- poration include the general officers of the Santa Fe system.
 It is estimated that the new line will require a year to build and equip. It's completion will give the Santa Fe two separate routes between Chicago and Los Angeles and by shortening the route between Kansas City and Chica- 60 will enable the company to operate overland trains to Los Angeles and San. Francisco in at least twelve hours less time than any of it's competitors.
