ploes testified in an investigation
before the corporation commission
as to the cause Of the wreck last
night just outside the yards Of
the company here resulting in the
death Of Engineer j. O. Smith and
Fireman Hodge and the painful
injury of Engineer Fleming of
the passenger train, that Engineer
Smith was running from the yards
20 the turn-table with yard en-
CINE without any order from the
superintendent or dispatcher,
making it directly responsible for
the disaster. Operator Raney
testified that Smith asked him for
permission to 60 on the belated
time Of the passenger train and he
told him he would see if there was
time. He heard nothing more
until the accident. He said it
seemed Smith had taken such
chances before and in reply to
warnings from associates had
known to declare: cob hell, I
cant wait in the yards all night. !"
Norfolk & Southern officials insist
that no order was issued to Smith
allowing him to make the fatal
run to the turn-table. The wreck

The remains Of Mrs. George w.

Coroner Seapark is concluded, he
having reached the conclusion that
there was not such a condition as
would warrant him In instituting
an examination of witnesses be-
fore a jury as to delay in calling
in a physician and reports of in
felicity between Mrs. Steele and
her husband. Statements to the
coroner by those closely associated
with them were to the effect that
they had observed no trouble be-.
tween them and that when the
poison was first taken it was not
thought that there was anything
like as much taken as it ultimate
ly developed that there had been

negligence in the delay in calling
the physician.

ABORNS AT CLIMAX
IN De KOIEN OPERA
Closing Production Is Stellar
Engagement At the
National.

In presenting Robin Hood" as the
fourth and last Of its series, the AbOrn
Comic Opera Company attained the
climax OF It's engagement, and the per-
Torrance al the National theater last
night was marked by demonstrations
Of enthusiasm.
Though Reginald De KoVen's opera
may perhaps be said TO be one Of the
most popular OF modern comic operas,
there were other reasons for the heart
mess Of the reception The appear
ance Of George B. rockingham in his
familiar garb as "Friar Tuck" was
the occasion for an ovation in ap=
probation Of the return Of this actor,
the creator OF his role with the Bos-
tonian Opera Company. There is nc
doubling the fact that Washington Is
glad 70 see him here again on his
part. Mr.. rockingham injected new
life and soirit into tho company
Two other additions TO the strength
OF the company were Charles Meakins,
cast as "LittleJohn." and Bernlce Mer-
shOn, seen as "Alan-A-Dale.'
Clean cut in face and figure, Mr.
Mea kin's success was half won be-
fore his voice was heard he &C
quilted himself well in Brown &c
IOber Ale, though II must DC sdl4
that he showed a tendency TO relax
mis- efforts when not speaking.
Miss Mershon was charming as
SAlan-A-D Dale ard IN her song.
''lEomise Me-" placed herself among
those worthy of special praise.
II was 10 be expected that, aside
from any interest in the newcomers,
the chief hOnOrs should be laid at the
feet Of Miss Ada Meade. The work OF
this young woman with the Aborn
company this season has been IN con-
tinual cTescendO. AS Maid Marian, %
all her buoyancy and animation comes
into play. while the role also affords
abundant opportunity for her versa
tility as q singer Of merit
In the title role, John r Phillips
sang and acted with something Of that
energy and dash which has been lack
ing from some Of his previous work.
The fact that he was cast as the
Sheriff Of Nottingham" permitted
Robert Lett TO he his own cOmical
self, and he amused the audience 10
the usual degree. Huntington May
appeared erhaps 10 better advantage
than in any role he has had during the
Washington engagement as "Will
Scarlet
As has been the case with the other
comic operas produced by the Aborn
company, Robin Hood IS staged with
completeness Of detail. D. II.

sly prOds and occasional broad digs al
human pecadilloes. opened the second
week Of the Ben Greet engagement al
the Belasco last evening.
The play was well acted. II requires
delicate suggestion rather than dra-
matte ability, and fits successful pre-

greater achievement, perhaps, than
some more ambitious offerings.
The fun is Of the quiet. chuckling va

and 1t has 10 be viewed occasionally

centers about the ailment OF a certain

severe dose OF true love. Around his
