SUIT To BREAK UP
The TRANSFER SYSTEM
Minority Stockholders of City and Sub
urban Line Would Take
Privilege Away.

John F. Shea and a number OF other
prominent citizens of Washington filed
in the Supreme Court OF the District
an intervening petition today in the suit
TO break up the transfer system be-
tween the City and Suburban railway
and the Washington Railway and Elec-
trie Company. The original suit was
brought some time ago by the United
States Mortgage and Trust Company,
representing the majority stockholders.
The petitioners today are the minority
stockholders
The complainants asked that Allan A.
McDermott be required TO show cause
why a eo-receiyer should not be ap-
pointed TO represent the minority stock
holders; that the receiver be instructed
TO discontinue the transportation OF pas
sengcrs on the lines Of the Washington
Railway and Electric Company, the
Aanacostia and Potomac River Railway
Company, or any other company.
The petitioners ailege that the transfer
system is causing the road 10 lose
money, as the passengers must be
hauled many miles practically for no
pay. The petitioners also ask that the
company be compelled to run through
cars across town on the G street line.

MAY ACCUSE MATTERN
ON ANOTHER CHARGE

It is not unlikely that a charge more
serious than handbook making will be
preferred against John E. Mattern, whe
conducts d cigar store at 436 Seventh
street northwest. and was arrested by
Detectives Muller and Grant yesterday.
The detectives carried a search war
rant, and in consequence of their search
Assistant District Attorney Given now
has 8 number of envelopes with the
names of horses and the bettors OH
them. 1t is said that money aggregat-
ing S77 was found in them.
'.In view of the fact that these en-
VelopeS containing the names of horses
and bettors and having money In them
were found there said Mr.. Given to-
day, Il am inclined to believe that the
court will hold Mattern on a charge OF
conducting q gambling house, which is
punishable by higher fine and impris-
onment than handbook making
Pending the action of Mr.. Given in
the case Mattern is enjoying liberty on

CASTRO'S ENVOY
CALLS upon Hay
Presents Papers Giving Him
Full Authority.
TALKS ON ASPHALT CASE
Indications Are That Department Does
Not Favor Attempt to Ignore
Bowen.
TALKS ON ASPHALT CASE

Pursuant TO the desire of President
Castro that negotiations between Vene-
zuela and the United States over the
settlement of the asphalt case be trans
ferred from Caracas TO this city and
that Minister Bowen be eliminated as
a factor in settling the difficulty. DR.
Jose de Jesus Paul., the confidential
diplomatic agent of Castro. paid a visit
to the State Department today.
Long Conference With Hay.
DR.. Paul was introduced to Secretary
Hay by Senior Veloz. the Venezuelan
charge d'affaires and long conference
followed. The papers presented by DIR
Paul give him authority from Castro te
act ON behalf of the Venezuelan gov.
ernment to negotiate with the United
States
s'The case of the New York and Ber-
that their property has been unjustly
seized, said DIR. Paul, is a contest be-
tween trust and another company
and is not properly. an internationa
controversy. President Castro desires
that the case go through the Venezue-
Ian courts. and then If the United
States is sti1l dissatisfied with the set
tlement he Is willing TO consider the
arbitration OF the question. But first
he desires that the judicial tribunals
shall sift the matter TO the bottom
Once Warner Quinlan Counsel.
DIR. Paul was formerly counsel for the
Warner Quinlan Company. a rival cor
Germ TO the New York and Bermudez
company, which endeayored to restrain
their operations.
DR.. Paul said ne thought it possible
that the negotiations might be shifted
tt this Capital, but thus far he said this
has not been done.
The indications are that the State De-
partment viii not look with favor on
having Minister Bowen ignored and Cas-
tro's latest move, thought may stave
off a break, is not looked upon as alto
gether feasible.

LONDON WHITEHALL.
1t Was Known IN York House Until
Cardinal WOlsey's Fall.

NhEoihui WOlbey'n Fail.
Old Westminster palace was the Lon
don residence OF the archbishops of
York and was known rs York House
or York Place down to the reign of
Henry VIII. On the downfall of Cardl-
nal Wolsey. 1920, York House was de-
hvered and confirmed by charter to the
king, who changed Its name to White
hall.
There were already several White
halls i'll the country. and the choice of
the name In this instance may have
been due to new buildings OF white
stone, added by Henry VIII, which
contrasted With the red brick in gen
enl use. Another conjecture Is that the
king wished to emphasize the depth of
the cardinals full by erasing the very
name of the palace so clearly associated
with his elevation to power and posi-
tlon.
This appears to have been Shake,
speare's view. for In Henry VIII. we
rend:
Sir. you must no more call It York Place;
that's past.
For. since the cardinal fell that title s
lost.
Tin now the kings and called whitehall.
