with the Pennsylvania railroad will De made. Trains from the south and west will then run over the Pennsylvania tracks through the tunnels under New York and Long Island City, thence over the Connecting railway out over the Harlem branch through to Boston and the east.
 It is announced that the additional land required for the six tracking has already been acquired. To make possi- ble high speed and to insure public safety, grade crossings will be elinlin- ated throughout the line. The road will start on viaduct, crossing streets and highways, from the Harlem river to East 18th street. Beyond 18th street the line will be depressed and the streets carried overhead on steel bridges.
 The new construction also includes drawbridges over Eastchester bay, where there is to be an open waterway of 1,600 feet, and across Westchester creek. The cut at Hunts Point. which runs through solid rock, is to be deepen ed to nearly fifty feet, lessening the grade to five feet; and the existing curves will be reduced so that none will be more than degrees. The four tracks to be added will be laid to the north of the present double track line, the space between tracks being increas- ed from 12 feet to 13 feet, which is now the standard of the road.

THE LATEsT COTTON SCARE.

THE LATEST COTTON SCARE.
 The latest contribution to the work which the future historian will proba- bly call "The Rise and Fall of the Bear Movement in Cotton Under the Auspices of the United States Government" is statement in a daily consular report of the Department of Commerce and Labor from a United States Consul in France regarding the manufacture of artificial cotton in that country. He quotes the French Chamber of Commerce of Milan to the effect that an artificial cotton is now made from the cellulose of the fir tree freed from bark and knots. He gives some details of the manufacture of this material. involving the pulveriza- tiun of the flores, their steaming, theiT washing in bisulphate of soda, then
 grinding ''electro-chemical bleaching by
 means of chloride of lime" and their subsequent treatment with chloride of
 zine, hydroehloric acid, nitrate acid,
 castor oil, easein, gelatine and car | bonate of soda. Finally" he says, to give the necessary solidity the thread
 is treated to an ammoniacal bath and linsed in cold water. after the product is pliable and worked we'll" He adds that experiments in Bavaria to produce i, cotton from pine wood have been very
 successful, it is claimed. Nothing is ! said, however, about the cost of pro- ducing this artificial cotton. But the report is just as valuable to persons
 seeking to depress the price of real cot- ton as are the reports which have been ! circulated through the Department of Commerce and Labor for the past year dealing with movements in European countries to raise cotton in their own
 possessions and to become absolutely independent of the South in that re- spect. For the comfort of the bears 1t may be suggested that cotton has all
 ready been brought to fruition in
 Boston, Mass; that experiments in raising cotton in competition with the South have been made for three-quar-
 ters of a century, and that by the time
 these experiments have resulted in in-
 dependence of the South for European
 manufacturers the South will have be-
 come independent of European markets and will be manufacturing all of it's
 raw cotton Furthermore should the
 manufacture of artificial cotton from the pine ever come to a commercial
 basis, it is not at all improbable that
 the pine forests of the South will give 1t a monopoly in that respect if the
 pine of the world, including the South, has not been exhauster. -Manufactur- CTS Record.

A REAR-END COLLISION

(Continued from First Page.l Short while. All the other occupants of both cars went to their homes not needing medical assistance.
 The rear end of the big car and the front end of the small car were wedged together, and both cars were badly smashed. It took about half an hour to clear the track, and during this time travel was delayed. Officials of the road were quickly on the scene and are now making thorough investigation. The broken cars were sent to the barn for repairs.
 The people on both cars were very badly frightened when the collision oc- cured and some of the ladies tainted. Several of the passengers were taken into a nearby house and resuscitated, after which they were brought on an- other car to this city.
 Those who witnessed the accident stated afterwards that there was no doubt that the two cars were running too close together, but owing to the large number of people waiting to be brought home from the shore the cars had to be run on a little less than a minute schedule.
 One of the men who was sitting on the end of a seat was thrown off on his head, but ecaped with only a few bruises. A lady was thrown off into the road and badly shaken up. She was taken to her home in an automobile which happened to be passing at the time. |..

NEW COIN FOB PANAMA
ASSEMBLING OF THE MEMBERS
OF THE JOINT cpMM1ssIoN.
Secretary Taft Tells Tnena of the Evils
Of an Unstable Currency--Ses-
sions to Begin Tomorrow.

BY appointment the members of the joint
commission appointed by the government
of the United States ana that of Panama
to arrive at an agreement respecting the
adoption of a coinage system for the new
state of Panama assembled here this
morning and immediateiy paid their
respects to Assistant Secretary Loomis.
Secretary Hay being at tie cabinet meet
ing, and then to Secretary Taft at the War
Department, who remained at his desk for
that purpose.
Beside Rear Admiral Walker, Minister
Barrett, Judge Magoon and Mr. Charles
A Conant, who represent the United
States government, there were present
Messrs. Arias and Morales the special
fiscal agents of the Panama government
and Mr. Cromwell of the Panama Canal
Company. Senior Obaldia, sthe new minister
from Panama, had not reaehed Washington
when the commission assembled.
Secretary Taft made short but forcibe
speech, welcoming the commissioners and
dwelling upon the importance of the work
conf1ded to them. He pofEeed out the i'm
portance of a stable curre4scy in the very
beginning of the existence Of the new state,
basing his advice upon his own experience
with the disordered conditions which he
found existing in the Philippines when he
Particularly the Secretary dweit upon the
considerable loss all comrnereial interests
would suffer by the high adverse rates of
exchange certain to follow ia the wake of
fluctuating and unstable currency.
The Secretary's suggestftns were favor
ably received by the Panama representa-
tives and it is expected from their atti-
tude that not much trouble will be ex-
perienced in reaching az agreement that
will be mutually satisfactory to the two
governments.
About the only point wsxIh promises to
develop any substantial dis Starence Of opin-
ion is connected with theA Projected retire
ment from circulation Of sfhe nondescript
currency-Col Colombian, Mextean, Venezuelan
and American-which now serves as a me-
dunn in Panama, the Enlightened difficulty
being the fixing of ratesN of redemption.
The present Colombian silver coin in cir
culation on the isthmus isS1et quite as lne
and as valuable the prex2ed peso OF the
Philippine standard so t,gI some slight
discount in redemption viii probably be
allowed.
The commission will meet at ten o'clock
tomorrow to begin it's busi2ess sessions.

London Today.


PARIS, Tune 10.-Miss Lena Morton,
daughter OF Levi P. Morton of New York.
died this morning from the effects Of blood
poisoning following an operation for ap-
pendicitis. Miss Morton's family were at
the bedside when she died.
The, operation in itself did not arouse
serious apprehension, but the appearance
yesterday of blood poisoning gave the case
a grave turn Miss Morton rallied slightly
during the afternoon, but later her case
became hopeless. and she sank gradually
until her death occurred early this morning.
No funeral arrangements have yet been
made, but 1t is probable that the body will
be eInbalmed and taken to New York for
interment.
The deceased was twenty-seven years of
age, and was the elder of the two unmar-
ried daughters of former Vice President
Morton. She was educated here while her
father was United States ambassador to
France. She was linguist, highly culti-
waited and was general favorite.
Her father and mother, and her sister, the
Duchess of Valencay, remained at the
private sanftarfum in which the operation
was performed until death occurred
Friends of the family fear the blow will
seriously affect Mrs Morton. who has re-
Gently been slightly indisposed.
