WILLARD SUCCEEDS MURRAY
Burlington Man is Elected President
of Baltimore G Ohio.
DUE TO HARTMAN INFLUENCE
New Executive Formerly Assistant
General Manager of Line When
F. ID. Underwood Was
President.

NEW YORK, Jan. L-Oscar c. Murray
for the last six years, president Of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad company,
rendered his resignation today as a special
meeting of the board of directors of the
road held in this city. Daniel L. willard,
vice president of the Chicago Burlington
Il Quincy railroad, was elected his sue
cessor.
Mr.. Murray'sl resignation, which has for
some weeks, merely awaited formal ac-
ceptance, will take effect on January Il
and Mr.. willard will assume office the

maintain his connection with the Balti-
more & Ohio, as chairman of the board
of directors to which office he was
elected today filling place In the direc-
torate held by George s. Randolph, who
resigned.
8 While no official announcement was made
as to the reasons for tie change tn the
management of the road II is understood
IN Wall street and railroad circles that
1t was mainly due to so-called Hartman
influence in the Baltimore G. Ohio a large
block of whose stock is held by the Union
Pacific and which for all practical pur-
poses amounts to a controlling interest
Mr.. Murray. is % years or age ana II Is
said the Union Pacific interests felt q
younger and more aggressive man was
needed for the position.
Mr.. willard, who is 49 years old, is a
railroad man of wide experience. He is
regarded as particularly efficient as an
operating official. In view of the fact that
the Baltimore & Ohio is in close compe-
tition with the Chesapeake & Ohio, one OF
the rising Hawley roads. this ability es-
pecially commended him, it is said to the
Union Pacific interests. Mr.. willard be-
gan his career as track laborer on tbs

the Baltimore & Ohio familiar with the
ground as he formerly served the road as
assistant general manager under Fred

KANSAS CITY, Jan. 4.-George Reynolds
and John Williams, negroes, were found
guilty of assaultlng Mrs. W. f. Jackson by
a jury in the criminal court here tonight

a half minutes. But two days were occu-
pied in selecting a jury, hearing the evil
dehce and returning a verdict.
Both men probably will be hanged the
first week in February. Every pTecaution
has been taken during the trial TO protect
the prisoners from violence, as the assault
was of such a nature that intense public
feeling was aroused. The public was not
admitted to the trial Mrs. Jackson swooned
While testifylng.
Prisoners in the county jail raised q
bedlam when the verdict became known.
They had previously threatened to lynch
the colored men in the exercise room of the

ARGUMENT FoR POSTAL BANKS



Millions Sent Abroad Each Year by
Foreigners Could BE Kept Here.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4-The immigrants
lack of confidence in the safety and Sc
curity of private Financial institutions of
the United States is officially declared
to be probably responsible for the flood
Of millions of dollars which flows by pos
tai Inoney orders from the United States
to foreign countries each year.
Auditor Chance of the Postoffice depart
ment points to this condition as an in
dicauon of what might be accomplished
throught the establishment of postal saw
ings banks.
The stupendous total of S64O, O,64O,S17 repre-
senting the surplus earnings of foreign
labor employed in the gigantic industrial
and commercial enterprises of the United
States, has ben sent abroad since 1880. A
total Of $76,6 500 was sent abroad by for
eighn workmen in 1909. The millions sent
out of this country have steadily increased
each year in proportion to the influx of
foreign immigrants.
Most of the amount sent abroad last
year found lodging in Austria, Great Brit
ain, Hungary, Norway Italy and Russia.
Postal officials declare that in the for
warding their money to foreign countries,
foreigners prefer money orders to checks
and drafts on banks.
Auditor Chance declares that probably
a majority of the foreign element would
rather patronize government banks with
interest paid on their money. Thus con-
siderable share of the millions sent abroad
would remain in the custody of the secre-
tary Of the treasury.

posely in the hope that the reprieve would
be received. He produces tha original

judgment Of the district court in the case
OF the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe rail-

was keeping telegraph operators on duty
for longer period than the hours allowed
by the hours of service act. In the lower

had been relieved from noon until p. m.
The court held as the men had only nine
hours of actual time on duty, 1t was no
