RESPONSIBILITY
ON THE WOMAN

At a cross-evamination OF Patrick e.
Mcdonald, who Is under arrest in con-
nection with the supposed murder OF the
child found on Hidden street on Tuesday
night by Chief Inspector Horton this af-
ternoon, the latter states that Mcdonald
denies any participation in the death OF
the child. that he last saw 1t a week ago
Tuesday, and that he blames the McDon-
aid woman for the alleged murder.
He admits that he met the Mcdonald
woman the night when the body was dis
posed OF and that he met her by acci-
dent on benefit street, and that the wo-
man told him that the child had been
placed In an orphan asylum.
He also said that later tho woman told
him that she could not get the child into
an orphan asylum and that after return
ing home the child fell against the stove
and received fatol injuries.
1t was said that Mcdonald said that he
had lived with the woman about year
and moved to the Benefit street house two
months ago.
The woman denies that she killed the
child. The case has been reported to Coro-
ner Lincoln.
Mcdonald and the woman will be ar
raigned tomorrow probably on the charge
of murder. Grace Heagney q sister OF the
woman who was arrested and held as
possible witness, was released from Gus
todny this afteroon, 1t being believed that
she had no knowledge of the crime.

by state corporation, the matter OF rate
regulation would be much simplified. The
cases are rare where a road OF any i'm
portance is not an interstate road and a
large share OF the business is interstate
business.
This may be argued as n reason for
entire federal control, something we be-
lieve to be impossible without amendment
TO the constitution This we do not believe
the states will concede until II is demon
strated that II is more practical than ex-
perience was yet shown II to be.
so far as we are advised, we know Of
no general reduction due to any action by
the federal authorities. We believe the
best interests OF the people would not be
served by placing the entire responsibility
for rate control In the federal government
We believe there should be a much closer
relationship between the federal and statJ
authorities than seems TO exist Mt present
Justice requires that there should be
fair relation of rates: that each class OF
traffic should bear its fair share OF the
burden. Here 1t may be said. that espe-
cially with the freight carried under the
so-called commodity rates. what would be
fair and seasonable in one section of the
country might not be reasonable at some
other points"

BLOCK SIGNALS URGED

Washington. Oct. 1.-THE special COM
mittee on safety appliances recommended
to the national railway commissioners to-
day congressional legislation to compel
railroads. both steam and electric, to pro-
teot their tracks by an automatic block
signal system, and urged that the several
state legislatures enact laws along this
line.

BALLOT LAW COMMISSION
TAKES UP MASS. SKARL
Continued from Page one.)

Mr. Parker who argued for Mr.. Whit
ney, endeavored to impress upon the COM
mittee the gravity OF the situation, and
how necessary II was that their decision
should represent the true will OF the DEM
ocratic party, He said that the rights OF
members of the party should not be lost
through the misconduct OF those to whom
they had given authority. He held that
II was the authority of the commission
TO inquire what was the intent Of the del
egates and whether any OF their rights as
deeghtes had been disregarded. He said
that the real issue was not one between
individuals, nor one limited by petty ca-
mors. but rather one OF the broad prin-
ciple as TO whether the Democratic party
should be maintained In this state IL
was too late, he added, to call anoth-
er convention so the duty OF rep
resenting the will OF the members OF the
party rested wholly with the commission.
George l.. Mayberry, as counsel for the
Bartlett faction, then addressed the CON-
mission.
That the Bartlett convention was legal,
that the exchange OF credentials for tick
cts was following out a custom OF 25
years standing, that there was no con-
spiracy In the state committee. He de-
clared that Mr.. Feeney, chairman OF the
state committee, waited 13 minutes for
the calling the convention to order before
opening the proceedings. and then made
no attempt TO rush them through.
He argued that some one had TO deter
mine the validity OF the delegates cre-
dentlals. and that this duty fell TO the
executive committee OF the state COM
mittee.
