BRITISH RAIL WAYS ARE

LONDON, Aug 21.-The railroads
were rapidly restoring normal services
today ana the managers confidently
expected that by evening all lines
would be operating almost as smoothly
as before the general strike on the
roads of Great Britain was ordered,
last Thursday night. There were
some bitches but all these were believ-
ed to be but temporary obstacles to a
formal pact assuring a better work
ing arrangement between employers
and employees, satisfactory to both
sides.

MRS. SCHOTLAND'S CASH
DlSAPPEARS-FOR A TIME.

A little third degree work on the
part of Sergeant Suchard, of the
Fourth precinct, is believed to have
saved the police a good deal of man
hunting. Early today Mrs. Lizzie
Schotland, who runs a corset store at
4oS Springfield avenue, reported that
she had been robbed of her pocket
book containing s7s cash and check
for $40 She added that her son had
been in the office where the money
was kept except for few minutes,
during which time the money was said
to have been stolen.
The youth came TO the station later
and Sergeant Suchard questioned him
closely. Half an hour later the money
was recovered "in a pile of rubbish -
according to Mrs. Schotland, who
asked that nothing be said about the
theft"

POSTAL SAVINGS
BANK IN Ne EWARk
IN NEAR FUTURE
Government Plans to Establish
One Here-Twenty New
Banks Named Today.

WASHINGTON, Aug. H.-Newark is
among the twenty-one frst-class cities
which, according to official report. will
have postal savings banks in the near
future. The postmasters in some of tho
cities have not yet been notified as to
when the experiment will begin. The
first class Offices which we're des-
gnated today by Postmaster General
Hitchcock as postal savings banks were
Pine Bluff, Ark; Los Angeles. Cal;
Stamford, Conn; Pensacola, Fla; Ma
con, Ga; Joliet, ILL.,; Des Moines, Ia,
Kansas city. Kas.; Newport, W;
Lynn, Mass. Duluth. Mimi; Hatties-
burg, Miss; Concord n. H.; Newark,
n. j.; Wilmington, n. c.; Fargo, y
D.; Enid. Okla; Providence, X. l.;
Knoxville, Tenn, and Chattanooga,
Tenn.
At the close of business August IS
the treasurer Of the United States had
accepted from depository banks as
security for postal savings deposits
bonds aggregating SO, 103 2SS. The treas
urer had on hand bonds aggregating
81, 100000, which were being investi-
gated.
In the first twelve days of their op-
Grafton the four first-class postoffices
designated as postal savings banks re-
ceived in deposits aggregate sums as
follows
New York City, $53O29; Chicago,
s1OS S16; Boston, $26, ,722, and st. Louis,
$19,9S1.
At the local headquarters of the
postoffice 1t was said today that no
word had been received from Wash
ington regarding the proposed inno-
vation. 1t will take some time to
make preparations, but it is expected
the postoffice savings bank will be
inaugurated before the end of Sep
tember.

MYSTERY MARKS
DEATH OF WOMAN
IN HOTEL ROOM
No One Claims Body of MRS.
Webb in Ho-
bOken. M&
Especial to the Newark st.s.I

HOBOKEN, Aug. 21.-No one has
called at the morgue to claim the body
of Mrs James Paine Webb, the elderly
woman who was found dead in
NaegelRs Hotel The police to-day are
busy working on the strange case.
When the woman went to the hotel
she had about $500 in cash.
This money disappeared either before
or after Mrs. Webbs death. The abb
sence of this amount of moneN, coupled
with the remarkable life of Mrs. Webbs
is inexpicable. 1t suggests a numbeH
of possibilities.
In June a lawyer had given her a
check for 1854, according to Charles R
Abbott, of 275 West Twenty
street New York. Since that time she
had spent practically nothing Only
SAT was found in the womans room
when she was found dead. Where tha
remainder of that sum went Is 80
mysterious as her own past.
Twenty-three years ago she was LEFT
a widow by DIR. James Paine Webb, =
prominent Maine physician, residing IN
Bridgeton. With large fortune, sne
spent much of her time travelling In
Europe. Her winters were passed on the
Riviera. She gambled at Monte Carlo
upon a system of her own devising, an
elaborate as 1t was unique. She studied
music under the masters of Europe.
With the aroma of culture and ro-
nance still clinging to her, she finally
came to walking the streets of New
York, cold and hungry. without homes
money or friends.
