Taft Receives Report
On Lincoln Memorial

The Lincoln Memorial Commission, by
its chairman, President Taft, Is ex-
pected to make public tomorrow the
findings of the Fine Arts Commission on
the memorial project. The report OF the
Fine Arts Commission. completed last
midnight. has been transmitted to the
President, and probably will be formally
committed to the memorial commission
tomorrow.
The contents of the report of the Fine
Arts Commission have been kept a Sc
cret. The Fine Arts Commission had
worked almost fnceSsa ntly. for two
days. Yesterdays labors lasting from
o'clock in the morning until late in the
night All Of the members were there:
D. H. Burnham. of Chicago, chairman;
Cass Gilbert, of New York: Daniel c.
French, of New York: Charles Moore,
of Detroit; Thomas Hastings, of New
York: Frederick Law Olmsted, Of Brook
line, Mass, and F. D. Millett, or Wash
ington. In the absence of Col. Spencer
Cosby, U. S. A, Lieut.. U. s. Grant. U.
S. A.. acted as secretary to che Fine
Arts Commission.
The plans under consideration by the
Fine Arts Commission included, It is
understood, projects for the erection OF
a marble portico on the western end or
the Mall. an approach to the Union Sta
tion. colonnades on Meridian Hill and
Delaware avenue, near the Union Sta
tIon. and the construction of a highway
from Washington to Gettysburg battle

/ that with a large improvement In the
service.
1t is likely that the system under the
management Of Mr.. King will still fur
ther advance, both in the quality Of
service and in earning power. It is also
to be noted that Mr.. King will retain
his position at the head of the electric
lines In Virginia, and there will be natu-
rally close cooperation between the
two systems. even II it Is nothing more
than loose traffic arrangement
1t would be among the possibilities Of
the future for the Washington system
to absorb the Virginia suburban lines,
and thus add TO the extent and utility
of the system. That, however, is q
matter for the future, as Ii Is certain
that no union or merger of the prop
critics is contemplated in the immediate
future.
Electrical railroad development in and
about Washington is likely to have rap
Id growth in years to come. The Cap
ital Is in sense an Isolated city, but
it Is already connected with Baltimore
by trolley and within few years
must be connected with Petersburg,
Richmond, possibly Leesburg, and 9TH
er Virginia cities, and lines may be-
expected between the Capital. the bat
tleiield of Gettysburg and several points
in Maryland.
The expansion of the Capital real
estate operations and the growth Of
population in the adjoining territory
will comparatively soon bring all this
about. The city lines will profit by the
extension of suburban lines and the
growth of the Washington Railway and
Electric Company seems assured.
Other business Of note on the local
exchange during the week was large
investment in bonds, bank stocks, Mer-
genthaler and those securities general
ly regarded as investment stocks and
bonds. Purchases during the week cas-
lily reach the $4,000 mark, and show
the investment Of a portion Of the July
divedends in this class Of property.
The local market has been firm and
steady. with prices somewhat higher
fOrTToarly
The Washington times., 1911-07-16

The chief feature Of the local market
during the past week was the sale Of
some 1000 shares Of Washington Rail-
way common at an advance Of about IS
a share over the former prevailing
price. The advance Of the stock was
due to bull movement in this security,
brought about by the change of the
executive head Of the company, in
which Clarence F. Norment was re-
placed by Clarence King.
Mr.. King is a Philadelphia capitalist
who was already president of the Wash
ington-Virginia Railroad Company, and
is an experienced electrical railroad
manager. 1t is assumed that his occu-
pancy of the position of president of the
company will give the property a larger
impulse forward and increase the earn
ing power of the properties.
Since the acquisition of the Washing
ton Railway and Electric Company by
local capitalists, about three years ago,
the various lines making up the system
have undergone considerable repairs,
new rolling stock has been purchased,
and the entire service put upon a far
better basis. The local management,
under the supervision of Mr.. Norment
and the directors, most Of them local
men, has been obviously a great i'm
over that which preceded.
At any rate, the property has advanced
in value, the common stock has been
brought to a dividend-paying basis, and

AWAIT DECISION OF
COMMERCE BOARD
Interstate Body Now Wrest-
ling With Problem of Ex-
cess Express Charges.

Having charged the telegraph. ex-
press, and transfer companies operating
| in the District Of Columbia, with gross
discrimination, the Anacostia Citizens
Association is waiting for advice from
the Interstate Commerce Commission
! as to what steps 1t should next take
| to get the same consideration and serv-
ice that Is given in Washington.
Whatever suggestion Is made by the
commission will be followed, accord
ing to statement made by o. H. Oster-
man, secretary Of the Anacostia Citi-
zens' Association. this morning.
I'VE already have engaged our at
torney. Frank S. Bright" said Mr. Os-
terman. "and we intend to go through
with this thing. II the efforts of the
commission to get a voluntary reduc-
ton from the common carriers is un-
successful, and they suggest a hearing.
we will present witnesses to prove that
Anacostia residents are charged excess
i've delivery fees, while citizens of
Washington at greater distances from
the place of delivey receive the service
without charge"
The letter sent to the commission yes
terday was in compliance with a sug-
gestion OF the commission
The letter sent by Mr.. Ostermau in
pursuance 10 the suggestion outlined
the situation in Anacostia. and explained
the various charges. II SAYS in part:
any citizen of Anacostia an extra charge
for delivery OF % cents per message is
made hv both telegraph companies, eX-
cept where the addresses can be reached
by telephone, and in these cases the
messages are delivered without charge.
Each express company will deliver
packages to It's office in Anacostia, bat
will not deliver them to the addressee,
and as the business is at present con-
Quoted the agents Of the express corr
panias in AnacOstia notify the ad-
dresses by postal card Of the receipt OF
an express package, and the addresses
thereafter, in order TO secure their
packages, have to call for them at the
office of the express companies or have
to pay an additional charge for delfV-
cry.
"The Union Transfer Company refuses
absolutely to deliver baggage to or take
II from any point in Anacostia.
IAN Of the corporations named are en-
gagged in interstate business, and Ana
costa Is one of the termini OF business
orriginating outside the District of Co.
lumbia, and they. therefore, come under
the provisions OF the act to regulate
commerce and its amendments.

PROY|NCETOWN TO
PROTECT SAILORS
FROM SW|NDLERS
Sharpers Who Prey on Un-
Gle Sans Men Will Be
Driven From Town.

PROVINCETOWN, Mass, July 16.-
One arrest was made by the town
authorities last night out of regard
for the rights of the visiting sailor.
Officer Kelly, the towns single po-
liceman. arrested a man who gave
his name as William Beatty from
suspicious character. officer Kelly
searched the mans clothes and found
dice and shells. and locked him up
pending trial Monday morning.
The discovery of gamblers finn
vealed the fact that sharps were ar
irving in numbers to fatten up on the
sailors earnings. The authorities
have declared war upon film fam
mers, and special efforts will be made
to round up and drive out of town all
suspicious characters.
The flagship Vermont received Wis
itors today and large numbers of
summer guests obtained their first
view of naval vessels interior.
Admiral Badger received the guests
in his apartment at the stern of the
ship. On Monday, he will transfer his
flag from the Vermont to the Kan
sas, the former ship being due to sail
for the Boston navy yard for changes
Of equipment. She will return here
as soon as that work has been COM
pleted.
Maneuvers and exercises that are to
occur off this port prior to July "a
are likely to include besides the lay
ing of naval defense mines, turning
trials, the assembling of the fleet in
two opposing squadrons for regular
battle practice. large practice with
rifles. and landing drills, with Long
Point as the field of operations; all to
accustom the men to actual condi-
tions in time of war, with land as
their temporary field of operations.

Police Unable to Get
BatonS That Will Last

Wanted-Some unbreakable batons
for members of the Washington police
force.
While the records fail to show that
the police have to use their sticks very
often in the District, Edwin Hesse.
chief clerk Of the department, is hav-
Ing his hands full keeping the members
of the force supplied. Every day or 50
about a dozen broken batons are turned
in at headquarters.
Mr.. Hesse explains that the reason for
this is the fact that 1t is practically i'm
possible to get rosewood sticks that are
not kiln dried. This makes them brittle,
and after tapping them on the pave
ment or against a lamp-post a few
times they snap in two like toothpicks.
Virginia pine has been tried, but doesn't
last as we'll as rosewood.
Mr.. Hesse has received samples from
practically every maker In the country
during the last few days, but none Of
them comes up to the required stand
