Commissioners to Sound Busi-

VIEWS LIKELY TO PREVAIL
If Public Opinion Is For It District
May Adopt Plan.
HOUR sNATCHED FROM NIGHT
Clocks Would Be Set Back During
Period From May 1 to
October l.

Shall a 'more-laylight'' bill be adopted
for the District of Columbia?
That proposition will be submitted to
the business men of the city for serious
consideration. If majority of the re-
plies are in favor of the plan. 1t Is not
unlikely that it will be adopted by the
Commissioners for the National Capital.
The scheme is TO advance the hands of
the clock in the District one hour May 1
and move them back one hour October 1.
in order to give more daylight working
hours.
Commissioner Macfarland has received
an appeal in behalf of the plan from the
National Daylight Association of Gin
cinnati in which the Commissioners are
urged to adopt the plan enacted for Gin
cinnati providing for setting the clocks
ahead one hour during the summer
months.

New York, Sept. 2s.--It is declar ed
in Wall Street circles that Mrs. Mary
w. Hartman, who by the will Of her
late husband, Edward II. Hartman,
becomes the richest woman III the
world, will be guided In her manage
ment of her 9sst e.tate by Charles A..
Peabody, president OF the Mutual Life
Insurance Company, formerly Harri-
mans personal attorney, and ex-Judge
Robert s. Lovett, chairman Of the OK
ecutiye committees Of the Union Pa
eific and the Southern Pacific, and
Harriinan's closest confident in bust
ness affairs.
The remarkable will Of the financier,
containing less than 100 works, is still
the topic of conversation in financial
circles.
The fact that no mention is made o.
the Hartman children. five in num-
Der, in the will is taken as an indica-
ton that Hartman, same time before
his death, created trust fund for
each of them, amounting to several
million dollars IN securities, to be held
By the taHstees until each of the chill
dren become proper age to handle 30
great fortune.
This assertion, however. is uncon-
firmed, and in some quarters it is still
assert ed that Mr.. Hartman gives his
