Improvement in Traffic
Conditions on New York
Roads Affected by Strike

NEW YORK. March ga very de-
cided Improvement in the conditions of
traffic on the subway and elevated
roads marked the second day of the
strike of the employees of the Inter
borough Company. This was especially
so on the subway, on which. by the
time the evening rush hours came. ex-
press service had been established and
affairs had almost resumed their nor
NAL aspect. On the elevated lines ser
vice was more irregular, but continued
to improve, especially on the Sixth
avenue line. There was practically nc
disorder and only few minor acci-
dents occurred during the day.
Officials of the Interborough Com
pany expressed confidence that they
had the situation we'll in hand. and
that a few days would see a full re-
sumption of service on all lines. To-
night the officials announced that they
had received assurance of the inten-
ton of so per cent of the strikers te
resume work as individuals. and thai
forty of the old motormen had already
been taken back. This was positively
denied by President Pepper of ths
Amalgamated Association of Street
and Electric Railway employees.

MISS RICHMOND
MORE CONFUSED
NoaO Says McWhlnmey May
Not Haze UncoyRed Bottles.

Miss Elizabeth Richmond, formerly
Mrs. Stanford's maid, was in talka-
tive mood yesterday. To Call re-
porter at South Mateo she spoke freely
of the poisoning mystery and frankly
acknowledged that in the work of the
detectives to ferret out the murderer OF
murderers they must proceed on the
theory that she is not above suspicion.
Herself, Miss Berner and All Wing, the
Chinese factotum of the house, were
the only ones, so far as is yet known,
who had access to Mrs. Stanford's
sleeping room, where the strychnine
was probably placed in the Poland wa
ter. The solution of the mysterious
poisoning in San Francisco on January
IA ought to be a solution of the mys-
terry in Honolulu.
Miss Richmond insists, in behalf of
her own reputation. that the great
mystery shall be thoroughly worked
out. She demands that those in charge

QUITS HIS
POST UNDER
HARTMAN
J. C. StubbS Resigns
Place as Traffic
Director.
Positive Statement to This
Effect Made at Omaha
Headquarters.
s W. Eccles, Now Of the American
Smelling Company, Selected fOr
the Position.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

OMAHA, Neb., March SIT was
stated positively this afternoon at the
Union Pacific headquarters in this city
that the resignation of j. c. Stubbs,
traffic director of all the Hartman
lines, had been handed in. The resig-
nation is believed to have resulted di-
rectly from the discovery of the secret
traffic Agreement between the Southern
Pacific and the Santa Fe, which was
signed by Stubbs on behalf of the
Southern Pacific and by Paul Morton,
now Secretary of the Navy, on behalf
of the Santa Fe. While ii is under
stood that Stubbs resignation was not
requested, it is said that the friction
between him and the Hartman inter-
ests has been growing greater until he
had practically no alternative.
Stubbs has been receiving salary of
$50, 900 a year and is considered one of
the brightest traffic managers in the
country.
1t is understood here that S. w.
Eccles, third vice president and traffic
manager of the American Smelling and
Refining Company, has been appointed
to succeed Stubbs. Eccles was for
merly traffic director of the Oregon
Short Line and is believed to stand
well with the Hartman interests.
"a, Nails, MIDI Cll II 10 I'LL
derstood in railroad circles here that
the board of directors of the Rock
Island Railroad has decided upon Gen.
eral Manager H. V. Nudge of the
Santa Fe to be general manager of the
Rock Island, to fill the office which has
been vacant since the resignation of
H. /. Miller.
1t is not stated that Nudge has sig
nified his, intention of leaving the Santa
Fe to become affiliated with the Rock
Island. The report simply announces
that the board of directors of the
Rock Island has decided upon Nudge
as the man to be given the position.
Nudge is in California, where he went
with his family a few days ago.
BOSTON, March S.-There was per-
sistent rumor on the Stoc.- Exchange
to-day to the effect that the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad had secured control of
the Atchison. There has been a stub
born short interest in Atchison, but in
siders say that this has been covered.
Such rumors are given strength by the
fact that the acquisition of the Atchi-
son would be a logical and entirely
proper step in Pennsylvania develop
ment.

worthy, she says, for entertaining the
suspicious, but she contends that the
detectives should be kept at work until
the cloud is raised from her.

day, but he did not send.
