There will be a holiday matinee Washington birthday at which night prices will be charged. and the regular matinee Sat- urday.

PENN. ROAD CLAIMS THE
 PUBLIC WAS MISINFORMED
(continued from First Page,)

all engineering and construction work, have been as faithful as they were skillful. The committee expresses it. self as satisfied that the purchasing department dad been administered with marked ability and with unswerving fidelity to the interest of the share holders.
 Allegations of favoritism to certain shippers of freight, mainly coal, are treated at considerable length by the committee, which sums up the result of its investigation of this subject with the statement that there has not been and is not on the part of the railroad company any discrimination as be- tween shippers in the facilities given for the exercise of that legal right
 Much of the trouble which led to the allegations, the committee believe, was due to the so-called individual cars. In 1906 there were 27,50O individual cars In service on the Pennsylvania rail- road. For the use of these cars the railroad pays six mills per mile loaded or empty and charges the regular freight on the loaded cars. The indi- yidual cars cause suspicious of prefer ence and lead to "unfounded, but vex- atious" charges of discrimination. While recognizing all the disadvan- tages, however, the railroad company has not yet seen its way clear to do away with the Individual cars" The principal reason given for inability to discontinue the individual car service is that equipment cannot be provided rapidly enough to meet the growth of business, 4aa
 On charges of discriminatioh to fla vored shippers in the bftuminous coal fields the committee quote the report of company of expert accountants, who made an investigation of the mat | ter. The accountants report declares that the officers of the railroad com- | pany have fair operating or other req sons to present in explanation of such seeming preferences and discrimina- l tions."
 With regard to the charges of favor itism in car distribution to the Der. wind White Coal Mining company the committees report says:
 In connection with the subject oi car distribution, the committee has carefully investigated the relations ot the Berwind- White Coal Mining com. pany to the railroad company. The lease Of Harsimus pier in New Yorl harbor is an arrangement by which the railroad secures a profitable traffic O. great magnitude; so handles that traf tic that cars can be unloaded with th' minimum of delay, and retudned tC the mines for re-loading, has perform

 statement to-day bearing out in part the theory of the coroner. The New York Central officials also issued a statement.
 Assistant District Attorney Nathan A. Smyth, with two other assistants, continued his inquiries into the wreck to-day, with view to determining whether the circumstances warranted criminal prosecution MT. Smyth and ais associates worked in connection with Coroner Schwannecke and Police Inspector Flood, and interviewed number of the officials and employees of the New York Central. including Ira A. Mccormick, superintendent of mo- tive power. MT. Smyth said tonight that he had made his inquiries partic ularly on the speed of the train, wheth CT a tire had been lost from one of the motors, and as to the condition of the rails. He said he found that one of the outer rails on the curve had been torn up, and that the heads of the spikes which held the rail to the ties had been cut off, but there was nothing to indi- cate by what agency. He said pieces of broken wheel of the first motor were found at a point far beyond where the rail had been ripped up. Whether the rail or the wheel was the first to give way he had no means of knowing, but it appeared that the wheel had broken some time after it had passed over the displaced rail.
 As to the speed of the train at the time of the accident, MT. Smyth said that F. R. Rogers, the motorman, who was operating both motors under one control, declared he was running forty eight miles an hour.
 That the state railroad commission is preparing to make a searching inquiry into the wreck was made evident to- day from the fact that Henry N. Rock well, of Yonkers, a member of the com mission, notified the officials of the New York Central railroad that he had been Instructed by the commission to re- quire the officers of the road to fur nish them with the details of the wreck A representative of the company said that the demand would be compiled with
 In an official statement to-day J. c. Hammond, press representative of the New York Central railroad, said that the investigation made by the railroad officials had not disclosed the cause of
 the accident.

THE BURNs-o s-o'BRTEN FIGHT.

The New Cooper-Hewitt mercury light, used at the Burns-O' 'Brien fight at Los Angeles last Thanksgiving day, for the first time for the taking of moving pictures, was most successful experiment.
 The intense glare produced by this new light making the night more bril- liant than day, had the desired effect of making these pictures the most bril- liant and clear of any yet taken.
 Nearly one thousand feet of lighting surface reflected down on the right a light more intense than the sun and infinitely more satisfactory for the purpose, owing to the fact that the lights and shadows, always navoid- able with natural light, were obviated entirely and not shadow was cast across the right at any time during the fight.

SHEER ON SECRET SOCIETIES
BREACHES POWLRFUL SERMON
 Fro TALE STUDENTS

At BatteIl Chapel Yesterday Forenoon
 Artificial Types of Brotherhood
 Which Are Narrowing to the Soul
 and the Spirit of Universal Brother
 hood.
 Robert E, speer, the secretary of the Foreign Board of Presbyterians, preached one of the most powerful ser mons heard this year in Batten chap el yesterday, in which he attacked the secret society, which sets up an arti- ficial type of brotherhood, and narrows itself to a few MT. Speer told the story of the most religious man he ever knew. This man entered Williams col lege in the early sixties. He was not a Christian at that time, but he became a Christian in his sophomore year. He immediately resigned from the secret society of which he was a member. When asked why he did so he said that he felt such a feeling of brotherhood with all mankind that he could not confine himself to the narrow brother hood of the society. This, said MT. Speer may not be the condition in ev- cry secret society, but those in which it exists are a menace.
 There are three views with regard to the ownership of life. According to one our Hives belong to nobody. One may claim that his life does not belong to fbof hiS life does not belong to his neig'hbors. While we may hold these ideas in the ory, in practice no man can live by them. There are, however, very few young men who do not take and try to live by them. They like to think that they are masters of their fates, and that they control their own lives, but back of it all they know there is some one waiting the time when they shall weaken and die.
 Ger against these ideas the Apostle Paul sets up another view of life. He says that our lives do not belong to ourselves, but that we belong to Jesus. Belonging and possessing is the es- sence of real life. Life consists in the discovery of and the maintenance of relationships Eternal life is the main tenance of the right relationships with God. Right life consists in right rela- tionships.
 Paul says that life is a trust placed in our hands. If we adopt this view Jesus Christ becomes responsible foI the man and for his place in tEe world God is trying to get men into theil places with more zeal than they them seles are trying to find their places There is a large number of you young men who are uneasy because they have not discovered their right rela' tionship with the world, but so long a' they live by the theory that their lives are their own they will be in unrest If they join Christ I defy them to bt the same men there were before.
