Transfers to All Cars
Within the District
Aim of WiIey'S Bill!
Public Hearings Will Probably Be Given on
Measure Soon After Holidays House
Said to Favor Proposition.

Public hearings on the Wiley bill for
universal transfers by the street car
lines in this city will probably be giveL.
by the House Committee on the Dis
trict of Columbia soon after the Christ
mas holidays.
Mr. Wiley OF New Jersey, author of
the measure, is eager TO have the hear
ings. Several members of the com:nit-
tee have received inquiries as 10 whether
hearings would be granted before action
was taken by the committee. II is
probable that representatives of the
street car companies viii make special
effort TO present their objections TO the
bill.
When this same matter was preached
in the last sess:on of Congress. the ar
gument was advanced by friends of the
street car lines that it would be i'm
possible to operate universal transfer
system in Washington, owing. 10 the
frequency with which the various lines
intersect each other. and the prime re-
quirement of the bill is that the COM
pauies shall give 10 passengers trans
fers whenever they want 10 go from one
line TO another line intersected by the

line on which they started their ride.
This argument is met by friends Of
the Wiley bill. however. by the the re-
ply that il is easy enough to refuse
to give a transfer on a transfer and
that the conductors can easily, with suf
fieient care, remember who are entitled
10 transfers, s.5s-
Although IL has been persistently ru-
mOred that the street car companies will
demand the right to charge cash fares,
and do away with selling six tickets for
% cents as a kiad OF compensation TO
them for having 10 transfer passengers
whenever demanded. no formal stare
ment 10 that effect has been made by
the car companies. Whether they would
be able 10 secure the cash-fare conces-
sion IS problematical. as they are now
required by clauses In their charters 10
sell the six tickets for @ cents wher-.
ever the demand for them Is made
These charters were enacted by Con-
gress, and II would take Congressional
action to change them.
Mr.. Wiley has found that there Is a

METHODS OF MAKING
DENATURIZED ALCOHOL

Many inquiries are made daily re-
garding the process of making dena-
tured alcohol. The removal OF the
government tax, which takes effect
next January, opens up large possibil-
tiles in the manufacture of alcohol
for the arts and as n substitute for
gasoline for motive power. as 1t can
be made cheaply from various vege-
table products. one man asks how
to make 1t from potatoes.
First crush your potatoes" said
DIR. w. NJ. Cross, city chemist. "Then
sterilize them; then malt them: then
let them ferment; then the product
must be distilled--that is. to separate
the alcohol from the water. The next
porcess is to 'denaturize' the alcohol,
and | understand that is to be regulat-
ed by the secretary of agriculture"
a dispatch from Washington says
the act provides that domestic alcohol
of such degree Of proof and under
such regulations as the commissioner
Of internal revenue, with the approval
of the secretary of the treasury may
prescribe. may be withdrawn without
the payment OF internal revenue tax,
for ue in the arts and industries, and
for fuel, light and power. II also
provides that the same shall be de-
natured so as to destroy its character

5000 MEN ON NORTH RANK.
Work is Being IusnAl on the New
Line

Fully 5000 men are now being em-
ployed on the new north bank rail-
road building from kennewiok to Van
couver WASH, and the southern part
of the state, according to several lum-
bermen who returned recently. from a
trip from the south, says the Seattle
News. The men are working on the
right of way OF the new Portland and
Seattle line, which il is expected will
be extended into Seattle -as soon as
the line is completed along what is
known as the old grade, from -Chehalis
to Vancouver.
1t is a matter of conjecture at this
time, as to whether the builders of
the line intend to install an electric
or steam line. From what can be
learned from the appearance of the
work and its nature, preparations are
being made for third rail electric
system.
There is nothing definite whatever
as yet regarding the line, but the 5000
construction, for seldom in the history
Of coast railroad building has it been
known that so many men were en-
ployed at one time. The graders work
about three feet apart. Many teams
are employed and fifty or more shacks
and construction camps are built along
the right of way

SH|LL IS ARRESTED
CHARGED WITH BEING
WORSE THAN A MACOUE
said That He Connived at and Sane
toned His Wife Earning Money In
the TenderlOin District, From Which
Payments Were Made OH Land
Enthusiastically for the Offense
Charged is From One to Five Years
imprisonment, or u Fine.

George Shill was placed under ar
rest Tuesday afternoon for the revolt
ing crime of living off the earnings
of prostitute, for which he had been
indicted by the district attorney.
By the testimony given the district
attorney by neighbors of the Shill
family and by the woman herself, it is
shown that Shill allowed his wife to
become an inmate of one of the Cot
tonwood street cribs and that the pro-
ceeds of her life there were used for
defraying the family expenses. The
evidence showed that Mr.. and Mrs
Shill recently purchased small farm
from John OFT, and that they have
been making the installment pay
ments from the money which Mrs.
Shill has earned in the tenderloin.
When Sheriff Taylor served the
warrant on Shill Saturday he found
his man at his wife's room on Cotton
wood street. He was locked i'm the
county Jail, being unable to give bail.
The law forbidding a man from liv-
ing off the earnings of prostitute
was passed at the last session of the
legislature, and it prescribes a sem
| tence of from one to five years in the
penitentiary, or a fine of from $1,000
to $4,000. There has already been one
conviction from this county, the pris-
oner being now in the penitentiary
serving a two-year sentence.
