that Minister Sulivan's kinsman,
Timothy j.. Sullivan, had secured a po-

note:
1t has come to my attention that
one Timothy j. Sullivan has placed
with the public works department a

on the Puerto Plata-Santiago rail
road. 1 wish it distinctly understood
that Mr.; Sullivan, by reason of any re-

claim on the Dominican government.
OF course, l have no right to prevent
him from placing before you, in fair

such employment. He is only there

FROZEN AND DRIED EGGS
WILL SOLVE PROBLEM

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-D1. Mary
E. Pennington, in charge Of food re-
search work Of the department Of agri-
culture, told the house agriculture com
mittee today that frozen and dried eggs
would solve the problem of high prices
and cold storage corners.
"Frozen and dried eggs" said DR..
Pennington, "soon will be marketed in
small packages so as to be available to
every household, instead Of for bakers
and other manufacturers as at present.
Hard frozen eggs will keep a year. and
there is no question but what dried and
frozen eggs will ultimately displace the
cold storage variety.
eggs cannot be kept in cold storage
and be fit for food longer than ten
months" she asserted, and added that
dried and frozen eggs do not lose any
Of their nutritive value.

NEW YORK, Dec, 11.-''I do moi

when they met conditions which forced
them TO give the decision to take away
dividends and Christmas presents from

the new head of the New York, New

declared here tonight at dinner of
the Railway Business association. Mr..
Elliott alluded to the meeting Of the
New Haven's directors yesterday, at
which 1t was voted to pass the divi-

Matter of Regret.
Regarding charges Of dishonest rail
road management, Mr.. Elliott said that
il some railroads in the past have been
overcapitalized, il is to be regretted.
HBut no workable method has been
suggested, he declared, "by which
securities issued legally and bought in
good faith can be taken from tho own
srs without failures and receiver
ships that harm many moro people than
the owners Of the securities -
To criticisms that the railroads were
eKtravagant, he replied:
Many economies can only be
adopted by throwing away old. ap.
Pliances and buying new ones. And if
the railroads have 10 money with
which to get the new tools they must
do the best they can with the old
ones. The railway managers of the
county, he continued, "want to

authorities tie authority and help
necessary if the railway is TO do what
tho people want and must have If tho
country is to grow. So it would seem
as if it was TO the best interest of the
people to be patient with a railway
which has practically no control over
tho price of what it has to sell
transportation-and very little control
over the price of labor needed to pro-
duce that transportation.
Mr.. Elliott said that anything that
affects adversely the credit and social
welfare of Now England will affect the
whole country, and he urged that bust
ness men of the country "who benefit
from the accumulated savings Of New
England and from her large purchases
from other parts of the country should

Urges New Order.

Governor Cox said the railways abus
ed their powers in the past when there
was little government regulation, but
urged that "past sins be forgotten -
and that the new order be built on an
entirely new basis.
The governor declared that public
prejudice against railways had dc.
veloped in recent years because of
'reprehensible administrative policies
of some companics.'
Commenting on q remedy, he said:
First Of all we might as we'll recog.
nize AT the outset that a Puritanical
severity is not going 10 do any good.
The thing TO do is to restore the pa
