view 10 validate the securities Of the COM
pany. was fled with the Legislature to-day.
accompanied by the recommendation that
the laws Of Massachusetts BE- modified 70
conform with the policy OF the state re-
garding railroad securities.
The report elaborates on the brief hndns
made on January I. in which It was stated
that the assets OF the road were sufficient
to secure the outstanding capital stock and
Indebtedness.
The spectal commission consisted OF the
three railroad commissioners, together with
the tax and bank commissioners, and the
report IS unanimous
The Joint board finds through It's experts
that the value Of the New Havens prop
erty aggregates s49625o,8ll, including all
working assets, cash and securities. No at
tempt IS made 10 estimate Intangible as
sets, although the report states that these
may amount TO a very considerable item. "

company on June 30. 1903. totaled $40, ,los.s15.
The board is of the opinion that the
New Haven company, having committed
acts in violation of Massachusetts, statutes,
should reasonably petition the Legislature
for authorization Of these acts" But be-
fore such approval is given by the Legis-
lature the board suggests that It shall be
ascertained whether the outstanding obli-
cations Of the New Haven company are
secured by aggregate corporate assets.
This applies 10 certain corporations not In
cluded in the boards Investigations, but
which are intimately associated with the
New Haven, such as the Boston & Maine
and subsidiary companies.
II is the opinion Of the board that this
state should not validate securities Issued
by the New Haven company for the ac-
quisition Of property other than that for
transportation. nor should legislation be en-
acted recognizing the further or future ex-
ercise OF any of the franchises granted by
the State Of Connecticut.

AVIATOR FALLS INTO RIVER
Morok Strikes Schooner's Mast,
Trying to Cross Hudson

Charles =. Morok, known as the "Relg,an
daredevil aviator" made another trv for a
flight from the Guttenburg racetrack In
New Jersey. 10 Columbus Circle early yes-
terday afternoon. His biplane tangled It.
self up in the rigging of a schooner at an
chor a hundred yards off the Hoboken
shore and machine and aviator dropped to
the icy waters. The former sank hut Mo-
rok was pulled out of the water and taken
to Manhattan to be warmed and dried.
During Christmas week, when Morok first
tried a similar flight, he struck a house
half a mile from his starting point lie
was injured. the biplane was damaged and
the house was badly wrecked.
At Columbus Circle and at Central Park
West and cath street, where Morok intend
cd TO alight, there were crowds yesterday
afternoon to await the coming of the Bel
eian The air was raw and the pavements
wet and nasty, but in spite OF this hun
dreds were waiting more than an hour after
Morok had his plunge bath.
The unfortunate aviator avoided the
houses of Union Hill yesterday by keeping
up about three hundred feet. a little north
OF the West Shore elevators in Hoboken his
biplane began to wabbie and buck violently
Morok could be seen wrestling with his
levers as II swooped to the south and dart
I'd toward the schooner's mainmast. II
struck the huge spar as If II meant to sting
Il TO death. Then, turning over and over
with motors roaring loudly, 1t dropped into
the Hudson.
Morok was making heroic efforts TO swim
when Glen Pollard and Frank Moore. West
Shore piermen, who were out in launch
yanked him on board. Norok was nearly
paralyzed from the cold when he was
helped out on q wharf at 72d street

SUMMER RUSH FOR LINERS
Early Bookings Indicate Record for
Eastward Sailings This Year.

According to the unusually large advance
bookings for the summer rush eastward on
all the big transatlantic liners, the passen-
ger traffic this year probably will equal II
not exceed the record OF 1910.
For the last three weeks there has been
an unusually big demand for transportation
on the steamships OF all the transatlantic
lines. The steamers scheduled to leave
New York in April May and June have
been practically filled.
The bookings from the West have been
particularly heavy. and II is believed that
large portion OF the passenger traffic this
year will be from the Pacific Coast and
the Middle West. Another feature of the
bookings is the heavy demand for return
transportation on steamships leaving
Europe in the latter part Of August, Sep
tember and october.

Company, which Is now in the possession OF

and yesterday in the Supreme Court. be-
fore Justice Platzek. Theodore T. Van
Dorm, attorney for the child, wanted the
Superintendent OF Banks directed 70 pay
over this trust fund for the benefit OF his
client.
Mr. Van Dorm said his client formerly got
So d month as a benefit from this trust
fund, and that as the Carnegie Trust Com
pany was in the possession Of the Superin-
tendent Of Banks his client was not receiv-
ing the benefit Of the trust. The company.
the lawyer said, had been appointed special
guardian Of the minor by Surrogate Coha-
Ian.
Counsel FOR Mr. Cheney maintained that
the Supreme Court had no Jurisdiction in
the matter. as the Carnegie Trust Company
had not been in his possession for three
months. This was the law in the case, coun-
sci maintained and Justice Platzek agreed
with him and dismissed the motion
