A. F. Martel, president of the wrecked
Market street bank, was summoned be-
fore District Attorney Langdon yes
terday and closely questioned in re-
gard to doubtful transaction OF his in
stitution. Langdon was particularly
eager to gain information bearing upon
the badly tangled Burlingame terrace
account. The accounts of the con-
cern show a number of irregularities
which the officers will be called upon
TO explain. Whether these operations
were due to incompetence or criminal
intent will be decided in a few days,
and in case there appears to have been
deliberate Justification the entire mat
ter viii be placed before the grand
jury.
Receiver Mooser has discovered sew
eral transactions which appear so ir-
regular that he will lose no time in
sitting them to the bottom. While
Langdon and Mooser are working along
their own lines. they win cooperate
If the proceedings take turn which
calls for court action.
Martel pleaded Ignorance to a great
many Of the matters that Langdon
called to his attention. His examina-
tion will be continued at later date.

reach basis for action

HARTMAN KILLS
GOULD'S PROJECTS
Recent Big Deal Effectively Pre-
vents the Wabash Getting
Near New York

The recent deal between Hartman
and Gould by which the former OBJ
tained possession of the Wheeling and
Lake Erie has a wider significance
than most people imagine.
One Of the results Of this is that it
viii effect a saving of several million
which was preparing to spend large
sums for terminal facilities in Pitts
burg.
The second result is the crushing of
the Gould ambition TO get an entrance
into Washington with the Wabash and
SO be in a strategical position as re-
CARDS New York. This will never hap
pen now. as Hartman for the future
viii have a great deal to say about the
management OF the Gould lines.
This much can be seen now, for by
the recent deal Hartman has secured
a valuable right Of way property be-
tween Pittsburg and the western ter
minus Of the Western Maryland rail
road. This will be used for straight
ening the main line Of the Baltimore
and Ohio and eliminating curves. which
viii shorten the trackage between
Pittsburg and Washington.
The statement that the Erie will
enter Pittsburg over the Wheeling and
Lake Erie and Wabash roads is not
taken seriously, although 1t IS be-
lieved that the Gould interests VIII
aid the Erie with freight tonnage al
other terminal points.
II is believed also that another re-
suit Of the Gould Hartman railroad ar
rangement viii be TO shut the Wabash
system out of Washington.
For years ii has been the pet project
Of Gould TO get this trunk line into the
capital and firmly planted within strik-
ing distance Of New York. 1t is pretty
well settled that this is now out OF
the question by reason of the new deal
The Baltimore and Ohio and Pennsyl-
Vania, which foresaw the move of the
Gould interests to get into Washing
ton, made a desperate fight against the
Goulds securing q foothold in the ma
tional capital but seemingly were
doomed to defeat, as they were in their
endeavors TO keep the Wabash out of
Pittsburg.
Now there is a change in the situa-
tiOn. While Hartman has big say
in the management of the Gould lines
they viii never compete with the Balti-
more and Ohio. Therefore it is certain
that no more effort will be made by the
GOulds TO get into Washington. Since
the Gould lines got into Pittsburg and
also into Buffalo, after lond and hard
struggle, Washington was TO be the
next point of attack and il was here
that the Wabash and the Baltimore and
Ohio We're TO have their next battle

WANTS MRS GREEN COMMITTED. The Woman Who Has Been in Courts
 in the Limelight Apain.


 Hartford, March 30.-Mrs Alice Bennett of East Hartford has filed an application with the probate court or this city that her sister, Mrs Ros- anna Nolan Green, be committed to an institution for the insane. The hearing on the application will come before Judge L. P. Waldo Marvin in the probate court.
 Mrs Rosanna Nolan Green lives in Windsor Locks now. As Windsor Locks is in the Hartford probate dis trict the application for her com mittment had to be made in the pro- bate court here. The woman has re- ceived considerable notoriety. She Is the mother of twenty-one children. A few years ago she lived with her husband and children in Suffield and she skipped out with Frank Green, a boarder in the Nolan house. She and Green were arrested in this city. Mrs Nolan was forgiven by her hus- band and taken back by him and Green was sentenced to jail for evad- ing board bill, which it was said he owed MT Nolan. Later Mrs Nolan left her husband and still later she brought suit for divorce against him. When she obtained the divorce she married Green and then she had trouble with him. The woman has been in Hartford several times dur ing the last two weeks.

HILL STREET CLUB
Met Saturday Night at Home of T.
 J. Coyle.

The Hill Street Improvement club held its regular meeting Saturday evening at the home of T. J, Coyle on Cassidy avenue. The mail service committee reported that word had been received from the postoffice de- partment at Washington that the visit of the inspector would be de- ferred short time, on account of other matters demanding his atten- tion. It was reported from the local postoffice that the clubs request for a mail box at Hill street and Pilgrim avenue would be granted shortly.
 Progress was reported in regard to street grading and sidewalks. The committees of the board of public works had been seen and it was thought that Hill street would be graded this year to Greenwood av- enue and sidewalks laid about as far as the grading now goes. The club members who come from upper Hill street expressed the hope that the work would soon be started, as the deep mud made travelling very diff cult.
 From time to time members of the club have notified the police depart ment of nuisances in this section which needed attention. On account of the dastardly case of assault in the Pine Grove last Thursday, a commit tee of three was appointed by the club to cooperate with the police in regard to bettering the conditions as to public safety. The opinion was expressed, however, that good roads, sidewalks and electric lights were the best aids in this direction. Much indignation was expressed at the recent occurrence and an effort will be made to have the police break up certain gangs of loafers who are in the habit of hanging around there. 1
 It was voted to remind the gas company of their promise to lay gas mains in Hill street and ask them to do so this spring.
 Two applications for membership were received.
