POLICE OF MANY
TOWNS ON THE TRAIL
Bv Mo united Press.

BY The United Press.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, juno 1S.-Two
bandits, who early today held up the
Diamond Special of the Illinois Cen
tral in the open prairie ten miles
south of here, made several unsuc-
cessful attempts to blow the express
Car safe and escape fror a posse of
several hundred police officers, deputy
shcrifs and citizens who apparently
had them surrounded.
The safe was wrecked, but the in
ner strong box, containing $4,000 in
cash, was not disturbed.
A squad of policemen who ap-
preached the robbers while they were
making their final attempt to crack
the safe at the outskirts of SPRING
field, were held at bay by the bandits
until they made their escape The
posse is continuing the search through
the woods near here and police of all
surrounding towns have been noti-
fed
After first tagging the train with a
rec lantern and ordering the passen-
gers TO remain in their berths. the
robbers leisurely went about their
first attempt to blow up the strong
box. Failing in this, they re-coupled
the locomotive to the express car and
ran toward Springfield making sew
eral more attempts at safe cracking
on the way.
When the pursuit grew too warm
they abandoned the train at the out
skirts of Springfield and fed

BOY Hit BY
TWO TROLLIES
ONLY BOUNCES

That Stewart Bryan, of No. 1905
Pleasant street, a Postal Telegraph
messenger. is alive today is due TO
tho fact that he possesses some of
the qualities Of a rubber ball. When
he was struck by two street cars
yesterday afternoon he certainly
demonstrated that he is a bouncing
boy.
AS he was riding a bicycle along
Market street, between Fifth and
Sixth streets, shortly after five
o'clock, he was struck by a street car
Bryan and his bicycle were knocked
over TO the other tracks, where
West Fourth street car going south,
struck him. Because of the fender
of the car preventing the lad from
going under the wheels, and also be-
cause of the car being stopped sud-
denly, young Bryan escaped injury
beyond a couple of bruises. AS he
started to mount his bicycle TO ride
away, he discovered that one wheel
had been broken. A large crowd
that gathered marveled at the escape
from injury of the lad who was hit
by two cars in succession.

Selection Narrowed Down Be-
tween Thomas N. StaytOn
and English
APPOINTMENT MAY
BE MADE MONDAY

Everything today indicated that
James J. English. manufacturer and
former Democratic City Chairman,
will be selected by Senator Willard
Salisbury for appointment as post
master Of Wilmington to succeed NJ.
Howard Jester The name of Mr..
English, it was said today, probably
will be sent to the, Senate by Presi-
dent Wilson on Monday.
According to the politically wise,
after the hearing given by Senator
salisbury on Saturday to friends of
the various candidates for postmaster,
the selection narrowed down be-
tween Mr. English and Police Com
missioner Thomas n Stayton. The
latter is a friend of Mr.. Salisbury of
many years standing. This, and the
fact that Mr.. Stayton had been of
great political assistance to Mr.. Sauls-
bury in Sussex county, are said TO
have caused the Senator % consider
Mr. StaytOn seriously for the post
mastership. Friends of Mr.. English
have put up such a good fight, how
evers that it was reported, apparently
on trustworthy authority today. that
Senator Salisbury has decided to ask
President Wilson to appoint Mr.. Eng
lish to the pOstmastership which
carries with it a salary OF S3SO0 a
year. Mr.. Saulsbury's choice may be
announced officially this week

CITY SOLICITOR DEFINES
POWERS OF THE UTILITIES
BOARD; SAYS LAW IS VALID

City Solicitor Daniel o. Hastings,
in a lengthy opinion relating to the
powers of the Board of Public Utili-
ties Commissioners which was read
at a special meeting Of that body yes
terday afternoon i'm Mayor Howell's
office, set forth Just what, in his
opinion, the board has the power TO
do. Following the defeat of the bill
providing additional powers for the
board, by the last Legislature the
members Of the commission turned to
the original act creating the board
TO learn just what powers they had
concerning the regulation of public
utilities. Mr.. Hastings was asked for
an opinion and this was received by
the board yesterday.
The opinion was so lengthy that
the members were not able to digest
its contents at the one meeting and
II was decided that each member
should obtain copy for study be-
tween now and the next meeting. BY
that time the board also will have
reached a conclusion whether to seek
an opinion from another attorney to
check up on the city solicitors deci-
sions on the various questions asked
by the board.
If another opinion is sought IL is
! likely that Judge Churchman will be
asked to answer the same questions
asked Of the city solicitor. The per-
mission of the city solicitor will have
to be obtained, however. before this
can be done The question OF ex-
pense was discussed and President
Peirce said he thought such an
opinion could be obtained for $780,
With two exceptions City Solicitor
Hastings made specific replies to the
eleven question asked Of him. The
opinion follows:
Wilmington. Del, June 5, 1918.
To the BOARD of Public Utility Com
missioners for the City of Whining
ton.
sirs: shall take up the ten qres
tions asked me by resolution of you
board in the order in which they ar
stated.
I. Does the board have any regu
lative powers and powers to max
needed Investigations and TO enforc
remedial orders for the benefit of tn
public?"
This question is very broad. and re
ally about the only answer that can b
made to it is found in the language 0
the act itself; except that this ques
tion raises the broad question as I
