LOWRY LIKES THE
GOVERNOR PLAN
REPLACING ELECTRIC RAILWAYS
UNDER COMMISSION.
President Of the Twin City Rapid Tran
sit Company Says Suggestion Is
Worth Studying Thinks Authority
Gould Cover Suburban but Not Twin
Cities and Duluth Lines.

T "Possibly it might be a good thing,
with certain limitations. It would be
worth while studying said Thomas
Lowry, president of the Twin City
Rapid Transit company, this morning:
:. Mr.. Lowry was commenting offhand
on the paragraph in Governor John
son s salutatory message suggesting
the placing of electric lines as common
carriers under the jurisdiction Of the
sion. He had not read the paragraph
and had not studied the question, but
one phase appealed to the head Of the
big transit company. In place of ne
gotiating with three bodies he would
have only one to deal with. The author
ity of the councils of Minneapolis, st.
Paul and Duluth would give way to the
uniform jurisdiction of the state COM
mission. ~ s@
49, However, altho Mr.. Lowry thought
such a statute might apply to the Still,
water line of the Twin City Rapid
Transit, company and those the company
might build anywhere, he did not see
how the authority Of the commission
could be extended to cover the railway
systems of the twin cities and Duluth
with whom the companies had an I'M

time he thou ght it might be a good
thing. With respect to the three street
railways mentioned, the suggested
enactment would furnish food fol
thought, both to the legal department
Of the state and Of the street railway
company. -
Mr.. Lowry called attention to the
fact that eventually Minnesota would
be gridironed with electric suburban

LOST IN LAKE STORM
Steamer Wrecked In Worst BliZ. gard In Lake Superior In
 Many Years.
CREW THOUGHT TO BE FROZEN

Twenty seven Men Believed to Have
 Perished In Disaster - Appeals For
 Aid Made In Vain Through Mega
 phones - Other Vessels Crushed by
 the Waves.
 Duluth, Minn., Nov. 29.-Twenty-six men are believed to have frozen to death on the United States Steel cor poration's ore steamer Mataafa, which broke ill half in sight of thousands in the harbor yesterday at the height of the worst storm that has swept the western end of Lake Superior in twen- ty-fve years.
 The AIataafa, which left her barge behind half q mile out of the harbor, attempted to run the canal locks. She was caught by the waves and dashed against the pier heads. In attempting to go about to get back into the lake the great sea lifted her bodily, poised the ship like top and then dashed it with crashing force upon the lock of concrete masonry.
 Thousands looked on from the docks, helpless, and the men on deck in their distress appealed for aid through mega phones.
 Their voices were drowned in the roar of the sea; but, although those on shore understood, they could not help. Not even a tug could be sent to aid the unfortunate men.
