EFFORT OF THE 7. M. @. A.

Interest in Washington's campaign to
raise the $S00.00 fund for the new Y. M. C.
A. building seems to have extended over
pretty much the entire country. During
the past few days New York, Brooklyn,
Buffalo, Hartford New Haven. Scranton,
Philadelphia, Fall River and Brockton Y.
M. c. A. secretaries have flooded the mails
with inquiries OF the local Office as to the
progress Of the canvass and offered their
suggestions and words of encouragement
One secretary sent his check for $50 and
another New York friend of the cause yes
terday sent $500.
The sentiments expressed are: That it is
impossible that the people Of Washington
can let January 1 come without subscrib-
ing the sum required, thereby insuring the
$57 900 conditionally subscribed outside; that
the national character OF the Washington as
ISOLATION makes 1t the most important en-
terprise of the kind In the country; that an
increase of 100 to 300 per cent in member
ship at once follows the erection of a new
and adequate structure: that increased in
come from rentals and incidentals, with
multiplied patronage. causes the new struc-
ture to be money maker from the start,
and. finally, that of all the cities in the
country the national capital needs a new
and larger plant.
There is still over 10000 of the required
100000 to be raised between now and next
Friday. January /. Something like a hun
dred small subscriptions of SO to $25. with
an occasional one of 800 to $500. are COM
ing in daily. But total Of 81 600 to IS 600
per day is not now sufficient to raise the
500, 200 in time to meet the requirements
of the Rockefeller. Peabody and Converse
conditional subscriptions 1t is apparent
that some big subscriptions of $4,000 to
$4,000 must come in during the next three
days. or the $4,000 of conditional subscrip-
tons by outsiders will be lost. At the
same time 1t Is believed that Washington
citizens cannot afford to lose that sum for
an important Washington enterprise, and
General Secretary Pierce refuses to be-
failure,

it was an effort at avoiding the
penalty prescribed by the tommis-
sion by doing something which
would ultimately be beneficial to
the company, and was. to my way
OF thinking, trifing with the ques-
tons involved. | wanted to be just
to them and adjust the matter
without receivership if it could
be done in line with the resolutions
and orders of the Commission adopt
ed May 10. So far as l could have
any influence upon the course
adopted, l was determined that it
should be one of frmness.
st appears that, nothwithstand-
ing much pressure was brought to
bear on the Commission TO secure
the adoption of the socalled counter
proposition, which we rejected, that
the lire is to be built any way. The
order of the Commission provides
that if it is built that the company
may exchange the bonds to which
it will be entitled under the law to
issue against the new mileage, for
the old bonds, but the order clearly
sets ont that the old issue of illegal
bonds must be cancelled and de-
stroyed.
81 have been criticised some, and
my position with relation to this
matter has been misunderstood,
probably by some who are unfriend-
ly to me. But there has not been
deviation from the original propos-
ition as submitted in the resolutions
of May Is to,require the San An
tonic & Arkansas Pass to do all that
practically could be accomplished
by the course proposed by my es-,
teemed associate on Commission by
his motion to instruct the Attorney
General to bring suit to forfeit the
charter and ask for the appoint
ment of the receiver. And l believe
much more substantial good has or
will be accomplished in what has
or will be done, than would have
been accomplished had the other
course been pursued.
( another matter that the resolu-
tionior order of May 13 will &C
cbnlpIish, and that is the enjoining
Of the Southern Pacific Company
from5Toting the stock of the San
A,9onio & Arkansas Pass or of any
ther two parallel and competing
lines. This is about the only way
fhis matter can be reached so far as
1 know, and though much has
been said that has been unfriendly
tolthe Southern Pacific Company in
the past, no effort has ever before
been made in this State to jar loose
its control of parallel and compel
ing lines in this State, the owner

hibited by our Constitution"

Paris, April At is reported that the

a considerable part in the present bitter
political controversy before the municipal
council, aroused by the question OF ex-
tending the franchise. Several news
papers have asserted that one OF the lead

several leading French capitalists inter-

The second chapter In the murder
drama at Cranston was enacted In the
Eighth district court at Cranston this
morning when Frederick HOFFMAN. who
shot and killed oscar Steinbach on the
afternoon OF March 2e was up for trial
before Judge Palmer.
Hoffman and Steinbach were fellow
workmen at the What Cheer brewery
Steinbach received a few dollars week
more than Hoffman, and tn elatter Is
said for that reason to have entertained
a very jealous feeling towards his more
successful associate.
He had carried a pistol for some time.
but his wife had taken II from him, fear
ing he would do some mischief. Stein
bach was in fear Of his life. for he was
aware of the feeling Hoffman had for
him and also that he carried a revolver.
For several days previous to the shooting
Hoffman had the revolver In his pocket.
His fellow employees at the brewery
knew OF his strange enmity against Stein
bach and that he had the weapon. They
complained TO Mr.. Molter. one OF the pro-
pretors of the brewery, and Hoffman was
