WITNESSES Urge
RAILROAD PROBE
Vice President Buckland, However,
Opposes Appointment of Spe-
cial Committee.

Indicating that they intended to recon-
mend the appointment OF a subcommittee
OF the Interstate and Foreign Commerce
Committee to investigate the alleged IL
licit connection between the Grand Trunk
and New Haven railroad systems, the
Rules Committee Of the House adjourned
last night after a two days considera-
ton of the O'Shaunnessy resolution, ask
ing for a Congressional investigation of
the railroad monopoly which the New
Haven is alleged to exercise in New Eng
land.
The session was taken up with a large
number OF witnesses, who favored the
appointment of a committee to investi-
gate the railroad. and one who did not.
The one witness opposed was Vice Presi-
dent E. G. BuckIand, of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford, who said that
his road had been continuously investi-
gated for the past six years, either by
Federal or State boards. and he didn't
see any reason why this should 20 on
indefinitely.
Mr.. Bucklsnd admitted that the value
Of the stock Of his road had decreased
greatly within the past decade, but at
tributed II to the opposition Of the New
England people o the road. He also read
several reports Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission to show that faulty
equipment of the New Haven was not, as
charged. responsible for the recent
wrecks along that line. He also explain
ed that, in buying up the steam and troll
ley lines incorporated into the New
Haven, system. the road had not been
guilty Of any violation OF the Sherman
antitrust law because the roads and
steamship lines which it purchased were
not competing but complementary lines.
At the close Of Mr.. Bucklands state
ment. Arthur W. Walker gave the COM
mittee the benefit OF his opinion Of the
Sherman antitrust law, and Chairman
Henry said that the final decision Of the
committee would be made known within
a few days.

DEEP MYSTERY
INWEDDING
Russell MilIWard, Noted Ex-
pIOT0T, and Girl Vanish
from New York.

Russell Hastings Mlllward, an explorer,
well known in Washington, who was said
to have made ready to leave New York
!, to-day for Guatemala on an expedition
for the Geological Survey, and Miss Made
line Ethel Sylvester, of New York, have
disappeared from that city after securing
a license to marry, it was reported in
dispatches from New York last night.
| 1t was stated that Millward and Miss
| Sylvester. known as "the child of the
Ansonia," because she was born in that
hotel and has lived there all her life with
| her father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs
Mitchell Sylvester might come TO Wash
ington, where Mr.. MilIward's mother,
Mrs. Margaret Millward. has a home in
| the Kenesaw, but neither of the young
people could be located here last night.
Mrs. Millward said she felt sure her son
was not in Washington. and declared she
did not believe he was about to marry
anybody.
Never Heard of Her.
Il never heard OF this woman before
in my life." Mrs. Millward tearfully de-
clared last night in her apartment in
| the Kenesaw. when she was asked about
| the report concerning her son and Miss
Sylvester.
My son is not in Washington" Mrs
Millward continued. He was here a
week ago. and promised to stop here
again on his way to Guatemala, where
he is going on some work for the Geo
logical Survey. l am worried so that l
cannot sleeD.
What worries me is the report that
my son has taken out n license and in
tends TO wed Miss Sylvester three years
hence. This seems ridiculous, and l do
not believe il. can only think il Is a
joke played by one of his friends When
my son was here last week we had a
serious talk. for he was going on a long
journey and I am an old woman. d
Il questioned him about a young lady
Of whom / thought he was fond-another
woman than Miss Sylvester-and he told
me he had no intentions of getting mar
ried. He said his work would not per-
NIT it.
He must know that I am worried to
death, and / have telegraphed him, but
have received no answer. II he were in
Washington he would come at once to
see me-"
walked 5000 Miles.
Mr.. MilIward is a Fellow of the Royal
Geographical Society, and a member of
many American societies for exploration |
and geological research. During the past |
two years he has walked 5000 miles back |
bean Sea. TO Laguna-Carmen. near the
Bay of Campeche, of the Gulf OF Mex
leo.
He tramped a like distance through |
Central Africa. He is a close friend of |
Capt Dick" Marston, who helped lead

luton.
