ON
THE FRANCHISE
Community Should Regulate
Its Utilities or Should
Have Competition

Willard Salisbury today sent the
following letter to the Street and
Sewer Directors:
October %, 1911.
The Honorable The Directors of the
Street and Sewer Commission, Will
mington, Delaware.
Gentlemen: Probably the present
application for an electric light and
power franchise, in opposition to the
Wilmington and Philadelphia Traction
Company, should not receive it, but
the occasion certainly presents itself
TO declare a policy for the city re-
specting such applications. Almost
ali who have studied the subject are
convinced that it is much better for
a community to have only one com
pany exercising a public franchise In
any given line. provided such COM
pany is efficiently and satisfactorily
regulated in the interest OF the pub
lie both as to prices and methods.
The unreasonable condition you
have to settle now Is that the COM
pany which refuses and. at this par
ticular time, resists public regulation,
is also endeavoring to prevent COM
petition.
Your Board in my opinion should
declare il to be the fixed policy OF
the city government TO refuse to grant
further public franchises where a
company already in existence Is salts
factorily and effectively regulated as
to its prices and operations, but unit
the companies operating here under
public franchises have submitted e
reasonable regulation for the benef
of the community, to grant TO re
sponsible and proper persons sucl
/ franchises as they ask, reasonabl,
safeguarded so that there may be com
petition as far as possible.
The principle l hope to see estab
lished is that a community is entities
to regulate its public utilities or &
have competition in the necessaries o
life they furnish.
Yours very truly,
Willard Salisbury.

How the girl could have disDosed Of
the bottle or paper which contained
the cyanide of potassium is a question
that has completely baffled the police,
and they admit today it is point in
their chain of evidence against Richie

The police had hoped to find a vial
or paper in the girls bathrobe and to
establish that such a bottle or paper
had been in the possession of Richie
son. In this way the police haped 70

the girls murderer
New Theory of Police.
In that, however, they we're foiled.
The police are, therefore, advancing a
new theory, that the poison was given
to Miss Linnell in a gelatine capsule.
They say the person who gave Miss
Linnell the drug could have emp
tied a quinine capsule, refilled it with
powdered cyanide and given il to the
girl. This they say, may account for
ne mysterious length OF time it took
the cyanide to kill the girl. Cyanide is
instantaneously fatal, but the police
say it may have taken the capsule
some time to dissolve after sbe swal-
lowed it.
Medical Examiner Leary and Dis
trict Attorney Pelletier both have de.
clared positively the first autopsy
showed beyond question that it was
cyanide, and not some other drug
that killed the girl, but up to date
there has been no explanation as t
the length of time 1t took this fata
drug to kill.

BOSTON, Oct. 25.-A second autopsy
was made today on the body of Avis
Linnell.
At the same time, the mystery sur
rounding her death Woo deepened
when a search of the girls bathrobe
failed to disclose any vial or paper
which might have contained the cya-
hide of potassium which the medical
authorities declare positively caused
her death.
The second autopsy today was the
third time the girls body has been ex-
amined. The first was performed after
the finding Of her body in the bath
room in the Y. w. C. A.
The second examination was made
at midnight last night, when the girls
coffin, brought back from the grave at
Hyannis, was opened and the bathrohe
searched
The third examination was made
when the second autopsy was perform
ed this morning only after Police Cap
tain Ainslee Armstrong, head of the
bureau of criminal investigation had
demanded it. Armstrong said anphati-
cally he was not satisfied with the

autopsy had been made.
What his second autopsy will reveal
is not yet known. All the internal or
gans of the girl we're removed and
probably will be sent to the laboratory
at Harvard for a quantitative as well
as a qualitative analysis, so that the
chemists may ascertain exactly how
much cyanide she took, and what
grade it was.
