STRAUS MILK DEPOT
AWAITS DISPOSITION
Of WEALTHY OWNER
Laboratory Closed for Bust
ness, and Miss Hurn Soon
to Leave for Home.

The property OF the Straus Milk Lab
oratory has been turned over to its
owner, Nathan Straus, of New York,
and will be closed within the rext few
days, until Mr.. Straus disposes Of it or
1t is purchased by the Government. The
laboratory was closed for business yes
terday
Miss Reba Hurn, who has been in
charge OF the laboratory, will leave the
city soon for her home In the State
of Washington. She said today George
NJ. Oyster, jr.. had taken over the lab
oratorys depots at Friendship House
and the Colored Social Settlement on
South Capitol street, and that the only
sections not served now ARE those about
the laboratory itself and at Freedmen's
Hospital.
1t Is not known what disposition Mr..
Straus will make of the plant. Miss
Hurn expressed the opinion that IL
would be taken over by the Govern
ment at this session of Congress-, but
that progress at the Capitol had been
blocked by the absence Of a quorum of
the District Committee Of the House,
where the bill to purchase 1t now rests.
Julius l. Peyser, chairman Of the citi-
zens' committee which is pushing the
bill, is not expected to return to the

STEEL PLANT GAINS,
NAVY YARD LOSES, IN
NEW BOAT SCHEDULE
Alexandria Line to Include
Giesboro Point in Route,
Cutting Off Early Trip.

Ferry service between Washington
and Giesboro Point. where the steel
plant of the Firth-Sterling Steel Com
pany is located. and between Alexandria
and Giesboro, is to be inaugurated by
the Washington-Alexandria ferry June
Is. This announcement was made by D.
J. Callahan, general manager Of the
company. today.
Since the ferry, Alexandria, was put
in service several smonths ago. it has
been plying directly between this city
and Alexa ndria. no stop being made at
the steel plant. The new schedule con-
templates making a stop there on every
trip.
Officials of the ferry company have
found some difficulty in arranging u
satisfactory schedule. The managers of
the steel plant have kept a standing Of
fer of a bonus OF 5000 If the schedule
were arranged to suit the convenience
OF their employees. On the other hand,
pressure was brought to bear by Alex
andrians in behalf of about seventy-five
who live in Alexandria. At their sug-
gestion a trip leaving there at 6:S in
the morning was put on. This trip Will
now have to be abandoned to permit the
operation of the new schedule. On the
other hand, about $50 employees of the
steel works in Washington want the
ferry service. These will be accommo-
dated by the change.
There is some concern in Alexandria
over the proposed change, it being
feared there that the city will lose to
Washington the seventy-f1ve employees
of the navy yard, whose alternative will
be either to use the trolley lines to work
or move to this city.

Wealthy Friends Will
Aid Stokes ASSailantS

NEW YORK, June 10-Develop-
ments will probably come rapidly
Monday morning in the West Side
court, when Lillian Graham and Ethel
Conrad will be rearraigned on the
charge OF shooting with intent to
kill w. E. D. Stokes, the millionaire
owner of the Hotel Ansonia.
A number of rich men have indi-
Gated their willingness to go bail for
the girls and to see that they are
represented by counsel. For fear that
Stokes may drop the suit now that it
promises interesting developments,
the girls are being urged to bring
counter charge of felonious assault
against him, as they charge him with
attacking them in their apartments in
the Varuna when he called ostepsibly
to obtain possession of letters which
he had written to Miss Graham
Whether this effort to force a trial is
due 10 the desire to hear the expected
sensational developments, or to the be-
lief that Stokes is prosecuting, the girls,
one of whom, Miss Conrad, is only
eighteen, is not known. The fact re-
mains that the girls will not lack
friends when they next appear in court.
Stokes story that the letters ne
sought contained nothing Inat would IN
any way compromise him has been
weakened, Miss Grahams friends say,
by the admission of his own attorney,
Terrence McManus, that Stokes gave
her 500 a short time before the shoot
ing, when she called at his office, in
the Ansonia, and demanded $500 for the
return of the letters
AS Miss Graham demanded only $500
at this time, according to Stokes, and
was refused such an amount, It is be-
Ueved improbable that she would have
boosted her figure to $4,000. the sum
which Stokes alleges was asked of him
when he appeared at the girls apart
ment
Mrs. Alice Andrews, the widowed sis
ter of Miss Graham, will arrive here to-
morrow from San Francisco, bearing, II
is said a substantial message from John
Singleton, the prisoners brother-in-law,
who is a Los Angeles millionaire. Miss
Conrads mother. Mrs. Charles Nagel,
and her stepfather. who at first turned
against her, have Teconsidered their &C
ton and will do everything they can to
assist the unfortunate girl.
