BIadensburg Road at Fifteenth Street
near the car barn. The car was then
going at a rate of about twenty-five
miles an hour.
AT Laugd0u the speed OF the auto
mobile was even greater than in the
city. The buggies, it is said, were on
the wrong side OF the road. which is
wide enough Tor three vehicles 20 pass
one another. Mr.. Campbell tried TO
guide his machine Out of the path OF the
first buggy, buC was unable 70 do so be-
cause OF the high rate OF speed. The
front OF his auto struck the horse and
knocked it on his feet. The automobile
then crashed into the buggy. throwing
Mr.. Waters out and demDlishiug the
vehicle. The horse scrambled TO his
feet and ran away.

INTEREST CLAIMS

Waggaman Creditors Ask

Today's meeting of the creditors OF
Thomas h. WasSamau and their attor-
neys was given up to continuance Of
the discussion which began yesterday
afternoon.
The announcement by the referee Of
what claims had been allowed or dis
allowed. which was 70 have been made
today. was postponed by Mr.. Bradley
until / o'clock Friday next
There is another question which has
come up. said Mr. Bradley. that must
be settled before the vote for trustee
can be taken. Many Of the claims which
have been filed are for the principal Of
the sums placed iu Mr.. Waggaman'
hands with interest. The adding OF the
interest increases the amount Of such
claims and affects the voting rights Of
their holders.
Il should like 10 hear from attorneys
who represent claimants secured on
List no. J. as TO whether or not they
would be willing to waive interest when
it comes TO deciding who has the right
To vote, and let this question OF right
be governed By the amount o. principal
Of the claims.
'.If interest is waived the election can
be held on Saturday, as arranged.
Otherwise the referee viii have 10 go
carefully over the list Of claims filed.
OF which there are now about 1900, and
compute the interest.
This task viii delay the election of
trustee at least week. i should be
glad 20 hear from attorneys on this
question.
The interest, / may add viii not
amount to a great sum in any case.
Attorney Taggart then suggested that
the attorneys Interested In claims Sc
cured Dy notes on List No. Il should
meet and appoint q committee TO take
the list and go over IL carefully. ascer-
tain the value OF the securities on It,.
and report 10 the referee.
Personally. said AIr Taggart, he was
OF the opinion that the question of the
value Of these notes should be settled
by priority in time.

WASHINGTON GETS
ST.LOUIS TURBINE
Property of Railway and
Electric Company.

The Washington Railway and Electric
Company announced today that the last
step had been accomplished toward se-
curing adequate power for its many in-
terests. Negotiations have been con-
Guided FOR the purchase of the new cleo
trio generating machine called tie Car
It's steam Turbine which has been on
exhibition at the ST. Louis Exposition.
There has been the keenest COMPETE
ton from all sections OF the country and
indeed from all over the world to Sc
cure the turbine. one representative Of
an electric company i'm Melbourne. Aus
tralia, was particularly active i'm the
bidding
The machine has been an object of
great interest 10 the visitors. There Is

the 0nc1als Of the company felt 1usu-

1T has been demonstrated that the tur-
Dine develops between 80 and 3 per cent
more power than the ordinary engine
and generator. and occupies about
fourth Of the space.
Since the General Electric Company
nrSt placed their machine or exhibition
the officers OF the local company have
kept their eyes on III with the thought
of purchasing IL. Orders for turbines
have poured into the offices Of the COM
pany manufacturing them so that, TO
