apartment on the third floor of the house.
Dilfgent search was made during the
fre among her acquaintances to ascertain
II she had left the building and taken
refuge in any nearby home, but no trace
Of her could be found.
1t is possible that weakened by ILL
ness she was unable to leave her bed.

While the fire ragged no one appeared
at any of the windows of the Byron
apartment. according to spectators.
The bottom floor of the building was
Occupied by Smith Wormley. who is con-
nected with the public schools, while

BEEF TRUST LOSES
Will Be Ordered to Produce
Books for Grand Jury.
DECISION IN new JERSEY

TRENTON, n. j., March 1.-THE So
called beef trust lost the decision in the
New Jersey supreme court today. Justice
Swayze filing statement that he would
sign the order compelling the National
Packing Company and other packing
companies to produce their books before
the Hudson county grand jury for use
in the investigation that body is holding
Hudson county.
The decision was arrived at by Justice
Swayze after consultation with other
members of the court. In his statement
the justice says that only two objections
were made on behaalf of the companies:
First, that the prosecutor failed to show
a cause pending In which the books would
be required as evidence: second, that
Justice Swayze had no power to bring
the books within the state except where
they might be needed in a cause In the
supreme court, which would make the
books subject to the control of the court
In reply Justice Ewayze says that II a
grand jury has a right to do what its
oath indicates-that Is, Ito diligently in
quire into all such matters as shall In
any way come to their knowledge''-then
the grand jury should be permitted to ex-
anime the books.
Specification Not Necessary.
He goes on to say: "Often a crime
may have been committed and may be
notorious, although the perpetrator may
be unknown. In other cases there may
be grave suspicion that crime has been
committed, although such suspicion may
be far from certainty. 1t would thwart
the administration of justice to hold that
in every instance the case to be investi-
gated must be definitely specified In the
proceedings, for not only may the grand
jury be ignorant Of the necessary facts,
but to give the name of the suspected
individual or to describe the supposed Of
Tense may warn the offender and give
him an opportunity to escape
With respect to the second point JUS
tice Swayze says:
1T certainly never was supposed that a
corporation whose books contained evil
dence that would be important in a crimi-
nal proceeding against individuals could
not be tmpelled to produce those books
for the purpose of affording such evi-
dence.'

thorize the extension of Van Buren, street

PASSES DISTRICT BILLS
SENATE AUTHORIZES STREET
CHANGES AND EXTENSIONS.

The District OF Columbia had its innings
in the Senate this afternoon. When the
calendar was taken up the upper house
found that the first business to be con-
sidered was District bills. Seven meas
ures providing for street changes and ex-
tensions which have already passed the
House received the approval of the SEN
ate.
The first bill authorized the extension
Of 4th street southeast. at a width Of
so feet through the lands Of the govern
ment Hospital for the Insane to connect
4th street. Congress Heights, with 4th
street, Washington Highlands. The OBJ
ject Of the bill is to provide a direct con-
Meeting roadway between the two SUBJ
divisions in the southeast suburbs The
only connecting road at present is by
way of Livingston road and Nichols ave-
nue..
The Congress Heights Public Improve
ment Association urged this measure on
the ground that 1t will afford better pro-
lection against fire for those having
homes in Washington Highlands.
Columbia Road Extension.
Another bill which was passed author
ICES the extension of Columbia road from
it's present eastern terminus east Of
Georgia avenue about 200 feet to connect
with q new portion Of the road which has
been recently dedicated to the District.
BY this extension it was stated better
traffic facilities will be afforded from the
northwest section to Mcmillan Park and
the parkWays in it's vicinity.
The extension of 41st street from Har-
rison street to keokuk street northwest
is provided in another measure which was
passed. BY this extension a continuous
street of nearly 1900 feet in length will
be secured.
The Senate also approved the bill
changing the name of I'D street north
of Calvert street to WOodley place. The
Senate District committee recommended
the passage of that bill because it be-
lieved much confusion in names would be
obyiated by the change.
\ change in the plan of a permanent
system of highways for that section by
and between Georgia avenue. 18th street.
Kalmia street and Butternut street is
authorized by another bill which the Sen
ate ratified
the abandonment as a highway of North
Dakota avenue between the sections
named. The grounds of the Walter Reed
Army Hospital and other buildings on the
same site west Of Georgia avenue make
There will also be minor changes in other
streets to facilitate improvements.
Entrance to Rock Creek Park.
The Senate also approved the bill au-
thorizing the extension of Military road
northwest. The extension is necessary,
It is claimed, in order to make q straight
connection from Georgia avenue to the
military road. This road Is one Of the
entrances to Rock Creek Park. much
used by automobilists. The present en-
trance is now very narrow. and con-
tains many turns, and is believed to be
dangerous on that account.
Another measure to be ratified directs
that Jefferson street northwest between
I4th street and Colorado avenue be
stricken from the plan Of the permanent
system of highways. The grade is SO
steep ,.iat IT is regarded by the Com
missioners as impracticabie to open q
street between those limits.

Gold Dishes for Hot Days" is an
innovation OIL the part of the Northern
Paciic's dining car department. which
seeks to add attractiveness 10 the
meals on wheels" A special bill-of-
fare is presented to the patron which
shows all of the cold dishes served,
ranging from cold chicken gumbo or to-
mato bullion through an enticing list Of
radishes, fish, meats, salad. cheese,
pastry and beverages. Moderate prices
prevail, making the cold lunch a stroke
of economy as we'll as a pleasing meal
for hot weather. A special kitchen in
the Northern Paciic's commissary de-
partment at Seattle produces these cold
dishes exclusively, a high grade of ex-
cellence being assured thereby. OF
course, it is optional with the patron
whether he have a cold lunch or not. as
a regular menu is carried entirely in
addition to and cold specials" The
new % is proving very popular on
Northern Pacific trains.
