impossible for the New York to Paris
cars to make their way over the highways
in this section Of the state until the slush
and soft drifts that now fill the highways
are frozen. In many places the roads are
dr;fted to a depth of from five to ten
feet. The thaw of the last two days has
made this snow wet and heavy and SO
soft that a wheeled vehicle of any weight
sinks nearly to the ground. The canal
towpath offers the best route through the

HARTMAN MUST SPEAK.
Supplemental Order From Judge
Hough in New York.

NEW YORK, February 14.-Judge
Hough in the United States circuit court
today issued an order supplemental to the
opinion of two weeks ago in the matter
of the interstate commerce commissions
questions which E. H. Hartman and
Otto Kahn of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., refused
to answer relative to dealings In Illinois
Central. Union Pacific and Southern Pa
cific railroad stocks.
The order gives the questions which
must be answered in detail, but does not
fix the time for the appearance OF either
man before the commission. OF the two
questions which Mr.. Hartman is not re-
quired to answer, one relates to the pur-
chase Of stocks between July 10 and Au-
gust II, that may have appreciated in
value. The other was whether Mr.. Harri-
man or any Of the directors of the Union
Pacific bought stocks in anticipation Of
the dividend.

Basis of the Charge.
ASSOCIATED PRESS CHANGES.
Three Shifts Made Of Washington
Newspaper Men.

Several changes are announced in con-
nection with the Washington office Of the
Associated Press that will be of decided
interest not only to the newspaper world
but to many people in public life in Wash
ington who know the men personally.
Edwin M. Hood succeeds H. A. Colman
as day manager; Robert o. Bailey sue
ceeds Mr. Hood in charge of the dlpio-
matte, military and naval work. and Mr..
Colman Joins the Capitol force of the as
ISOLATION.
MIR. Hood is one of the oldest men in
point Of service in the Associated Press
Office. He began quite young on routine
work at the State, War and Navy De-
partment, in 1877, before the present
building was erected. Afterward he was
shifted through all of the federal de-
partments and has occupied at one time
or another all the jobs in the-Associated
Press office. Personally he has been
known to more public men at the State.
War and Navy Department than any
other newspaper man in the past fifteen
years.
on the subject, there probably never has
been a cabinet officer I'm the three big up
town departments who did not hold quite
as confidential relations with Eddie
Hood as he did with any OF his assistant
secretaries. Mr.. Hood was offered and
declined the assistant secretaryship Of the
navy under John D. Long. and all through
the Spanish-American war was in closer
actual touch with the military. naval and
diplomatic moves of the government than
any other newspaper man in Washington.
No more can be said of his position in
relation to the government at that time
than that he was constantly in posses
sion of information that he could not
print.
Harry A. Colman has been in the Wash
ington office for about ten years. He
came a few days after the first Inaugural
ton of Mckinley. in 1897. and has since
been principally in the Office. Prior to
coming to Washington he was the editor
of the Roanoke Times and came from
that post to be the city editor of the
Washington Times. Thence he came to
the Associated Press. He was made day
manager of the Washington office in 1900
and has been in the position almost ever
since, except when being sent around the
country on presidential trips. He has been
in every state Of the Union with President
Roosevelt, outside of New England.
M Bailey is one Of the newer men in
the Washington office, coming to the AS
ISOLATED Press from the New York bureau
here having previously been on the staff
OF The Evening Star. For several years
he has been selected as the "A. Pr man
to look after the President during the
summer. when the capital of the country
was transferred for several months from
washington to Oyster Bay.

Cured this morning on the New York and
New Jersey railroad bridge. The cars
came together head-on in the center OF

danger signals from the view of the mo-
tormen.
Ambulances were rushed to the end Of
the bridge and the injured were removed
to the Hackensack hospital. Motorman
Egan of the trolley car bound for New
ark is the man who will probably die.
Both his legs were broken, and he was
badly crushed. Motorman Saplin of the
other car was bruised about the body
and both knees were wrenched. Fred Rit-
ter of Newark was cut by the flying bits
of glass. A woman and two men whose
names were not secured were taken Off in
the ambulance.
Neither car was crowded, else the list
of injured would have been greater. The
one bound for Passaic tore it's way
through to the smoking compartment of
the Newark bound car. Panic prevailed

covered that they were on the bridge.
