At the instance of representatives of
several smaller railroads of the west
and on Endorsement of individual ship
pers, Representative Richardson of
Alabama, a member of the house COM
mittee on interstate and foreign COM
merce, has presented in that committee
an amendment to the railroad bill of
Representative Townsend, which is the
administration measure, providing that
railroads be required to handle freight
OVER any COiHcCtinS liHS.
Under the amendment, the initial car
rier would be obligated to carry ship
ment to its destination without unload
ing whether the initial road had any
exchange arrangement with the con-
Meeting line or not. The amendment
would operate in favor of many of the
smaller roads that have no traffic ar
rangements with trunk lines and
which Richardson says, frequently
are deprived of revenue by the larger
roads in order to prevent their up
building.
An amendment to the present law is
to be sought by the Chicago Associa-
tion of Commerce and law firms which
make a speciality of Interstate com
merce business. The object is to give
shippers the right to appeal from de-
cisions of the commission and to ap-
pear before the proposed interstate
commerce court when orders of the
commission which are favorable to the
shippers are under consideration.

Captain William Kenealey and Lieu

PARK BOARD MAY
REMOVE CURATOR
Man Formerly Known as Miguel
PoIadad Schieppa Petra Is
Mentioned for Place

Although the seal of approval mas
been placed by Mayor Mccarthy ana
the administration powers upon the
head of superintendent John McLareh
of Golden Gate park, it is rumoreo that
the new board of park commissioners
will not deal so kindly with all the
employees of the department and that
among the first who will feel the blade
Of the ak will be DR.. Albert h. Gray
curator of the park museum
No move has yet been made toward
effecting the changes, but hnts thal
many are to go have been insistent and
stand undenied by either the mayor or
any member of the park board. DoctoT
Gray is said to be slated FOR removal
for one reason at least as the result OF
the circumstance of his relationship 10
j. II. Skinner, assistant cashier OF the
First national bank, of which Rudolph
Spreckels is president.
Doctor Gray is the stepfather of
Skinner and the latter's business con-
nection with Rudolph Spreckels Is not
looked upon with favor by the powers
of the administration. Apart from TINS,
Doctor Gray is not looked upon as
strong administration supporter, having
received his appointment to the cura
torship in June, 1908, at the hands OF
the Taylor administration.
Doctor Gray is not without influential
friends at court, however, and efforts
have already been made in his behalf
to prevent the threatened removal
How successful these have been or may
be will not be known until the park
board actively puts into execution the
reorganization policy of the admins
tration, for the rule that governs from
the mayors office down is for removals
and appointments to be made without
warning. This policy of secrecy has
been maintained by the park board con-
cerning all its intentions.
The man spoken of, however, as Doc
tor Gray's probable successor in the
event of his removal is Michael Peter
Scott, formerly known as Miguel Po-
ladad Schieppa Pietra and former bust
ness agent of the cooks and walters
union. Scott, as he then called himself,
was one of the principal witnesses for
the defense in the eXtortion trial of
former Mayor Eugene Schmtz. in which
he testified concerning a plan between
the mayor and the walters union to put
several nonunion restaurants out of
business.
During his cross examination in the
SchmitZ trial Scott's true name was
brought out by the attorneys for the
prosecution and caused not little sug-
gestive comment by his examiners He
later had his name changed to Scott by
order of the court, stating that his true
name did not lend itself to English
usage and that he had called himself
Scott for more than 20 years.
Scott was connected for some time
with the building department. of the
board of public works.
