 Mrs. McLean's death came, not un- expected, after less than two weeks illness with pneumonia and after a supreme fight for her life She had been here with her husband several weeks. Last Monday, it became known that she was seriously i'll and Dr. Fremont-Smith, of Washington, D. C., and pr. Thatcher, with a nurse, took turns watching day and night at her bedside. On Thursday, the physi- clans feared Mrs. Mclean could not llves and their message to Edward Beale Mclean, their only child, and his wife, who was the only child of a Denver mining king and muiti-n mill Honaire. Thomas Walsh, brought them hurrying from their summer home at Newport in a special train. Saturday y morning, at daEoreak, MT. and Mrs. Edward Mclean were summoned to believed to be dying. She rallied however, and in the meantime, at ) a. n., Saturday, pr. Lewellyn F.. Barker, physician-in-chief. at Johns F1OpFAinS Oh1FoIS1Ly aI Wh0 was visiting at Toxaway, N. C.. was summoned here. Dr. Barker was 40 miles from a railway station when the message came. He rode to ASf1s- vile from Toxaways to special train to the first Of a series of three changes on the way to this place.
 At 10 minutes to 8, last evening, he was at Mrs. McLean's bedside, having covered the 1929 miles of travel against death, with a record of a 42 mile an hour average Every possi- I71 Ia fn tl1a 1aa Tor was in vain and pr. Barker an nounced shortly after midnight, this morning, that it was only a question of hours.
 Although there had been little real hope for Mrs McLean's recovery since Friday, her family here have been crushed by her death and1funeral ar engagements probably will not be made before tomorrow meaning. How ever it is known that the body will be taken south either Tuesday even ing or Wednesday morning. It has not been decided whether the funeral will be in Washington or Cincinnati.

A rigid investigation Of the causes contributing to the fearful collision which took place on Saturday night at the corner of Congress and Main streets, when half a score of persons were injured by. a runaway car of the Connecticut Railway Company, has already been begun the Public Utilities Commission Of the State of Connecticut.
 That negligence on the part of the company in putting 8 green man in responsible for the fnJuring of those hurt and jeopardizing the lives of many more who were extricated from their dangerous position solely by the presence Of mind of the motorman, is one of the phases of the situation which it will be closely scrutinized by members lof the commission.
 It was learned today that the se- vereIy injured nnotorrnar1 n of the wild cat Oak street car had been employed by the Connecticut Company but two weeks at the utmost, and uncDnfirmed reports place his experience at much shorter period of time. Witnesses of the accident and employees of the com pany were heard to remark that when hospital he was not dressed in the reg ulation uniform of the com pany.
 When seen today by reporter of The Farmer, Theodore B Ford, of the Public Utilities Commission, stated that while it was not obligatory upon that body to make an investigation unless fatalities resulted, it was cus- tomary in all cases of such importance as the present to look carefully into fhe details with such precision as would give comprehensive under standing of the, conditions and causes. and that with such an object in view c. c.
