elusive monopoly of transportation
facilities by railroads In the greater
part of New England
That passenger train service, with
out considering safety of operation,
on the New Haven, is distinctly bet
ter than any other line entering New
York, and that of the Boston and
Maine equally as good. 3oth roads,
however. are criticised adversely for
lack of steel cars.
That the freight service of the Bos-
ton and Maine lis much less reliable
than that of either the Pennsylvania
or the Baltimore and Ohio, while that
of the New Haven is slightly inferior
to the Pennsylvania, but about on a
par with the Baltimore and Ohio"
That passenger fares in New Eng
land have been more favorable to the
local travelling public than in any
other portion of the United States.
That "any betterment of railroad
conditions in New England must be-
gin with the assurance that the New
Haven management will act not only
prudently, but, above all, within the
letter and the spirit of the law"
NO Ofder Is Made.
No order was made by the commits
sion, but in it's opinion, the following
propositions which have national APP
plication to all railroads. lie at the
| foundation of adequate railroad regu-
| lation:
every interstate railroad should
| be prohibited from expending money
or mourning liabilities or acquiring
| property not In the operation of its
| railroad or in the legitimate improve
ment, extension or development of
that railroad.
mo interstate railroad should be
permitted to lease or purchase any
other railroad, nor to acquire the
stocks or securities of any other rail-
roads, nor to guarantee the same
directly or indirectly, without the ap-
prevail of the Federal government.
mo stocks or bonds should be Is
sued by an interstate railroad except
for the purpose sanctioned in the two
preceding paragraphs, and none
should be issued without the approva
of the Federal government"
The inquiry resulting in today's re-
port was begun about a year ago by
the commission upon its own initia-
1 tive, in consequence of numerous and
persistent complaints of the railroad
rates, regulations and service in New
England. The carriers. particularly
investigated were the New York. New
Haven and Hartford; the Boston and
Maine, and the Maine Central
Months were devoted to examination
of books and accounts and thirty
seven days were devoted to public
hearings, in the course of which more
than 5000 pages of testimony were
taken.

EVIDENCE SHOWN
BOARD BY G|LLEN
Takes Commissioners on In
spection Tour Over Streets
Paved With Bitulithic.

The members of the Board of Works
: were escorted by Commissioners
! Charles P. Gillen on an inspection
trip of several streets, in which, he
! declared, the Standard Bitulithic
Company had not lived UP to the con-
tract specifications. OF the two
. streets inspected before noon the
I paving on Calumet street was said to
: have been about III inches short In
!. the concrete filing. Just before the
I inspecting party left the City Hall
. a lively tilt ensued between Commits
. sioner Gillen and Chief Engineer Nor
! ris r. Sherrerd, in which the former
insisted that the inspection should be
made by the Board of Works and not
by city employees. and that the
! streets to be Inspected should be torn
. up in the presence of the board mem
hers. The commissioner carried his
point
Commissioners Inspect Work.
All of the members of the board
were present, with the exception of
Commissioner Denman. who is out of
the city. The streets selected for the
first inspection were Malvern and
Calumet. where Mr.. Gillen had made
a personal inspection and declared
that the paving did not come up to
the standard of the specifications,
which called for top covering of two
inches thickness and a concrete filing
of sh inches.
In Malvern street both the top
layer and the concrete filling proved
TO come up to the specifications, but
In Calumet street the filling was said
to be IL inches short, while the top
layer was all right.
The tilt between Commissioner Gil
len and Chief Engineer Sherrerd oc-
CURED just before the board men,
bers left the City Hall in automo-
biles. The chief engineer informed
the board members that he had had
portions of the streets to be inspect
ed torn up. To this Mr.. Gil1en OBJ
jected strenuously, declaring the
resolution proposed by him at the
board meeting last Thursday called
for the inspection to be made by the
board members and not by city EN-
ployees, and that he did not propose
to have any city employee have any
thing to do with the affair.
Gilien WINS Point.
The other members did not see the
necessity of wasting time In having
new openings made, but finally con-
coded the point to Mr.. Gillen.
The inspection will be continued
during the afternoon and the paving
on Cypress, Vernon and Leslie streets
and Clinton place will be tested.
1t was announced that If Mr.. Gil
lens contentious prove true he will
formally prefer charges against the
Standard Bitulithic Company.

STARTED AT ONCE
McAdoo Says Evidence War
rants Prosecution OF Defunct
Institutions Managers.

WASHINGTON. July 9.-Secretary
McAdoo before the close of the day
expects to ask Attorney-G General NC
Reynolds to investigate alleged irreg-
ularities in connection with the clos
ing of the First-Second National
Bank of Pittsburgh, and determine
whether the National Bank act has
been violated.
Sufficient facts have been collected
by the treasury department, 1t Is
said, to warrant immediate interven-
ton by the department of justice.
Thomas P. Kane, acting comptrol-
Ter of the currency, who returned to-
day from Pittsburgh. where he
closed the First-Second National
Bank. declared that the First Ma
tional Bank of that city should have
been Cleaned up or closed up" at
the time of its merger with the Sec
ond National Bank several months
ago.
The merger was authorized by
Lawrence O. Murray former comp
troller of the currency.
At that time, Mr.. Kane declared
today, the First Nationals capital
was badly impaired and the bank was
notified last December that its i'm
paired capital must be restored.
The comptroller added that the
condition of the bank had been long
well known In banking circles in
Pittsburgh, New York and elsewhere.
Details of the causes which in
duced the treasury department to
close the bank Monday morning be-
came known today, with the return of
Comptroller Kane. He declared that
information concerning the govern
ment's surveillance of the bank
leaked out and one big depositor
withdrew 100000 last Saturday
Government officials then learned
that other big depositors con-
templated making heavy with
drawals Monday. To prevent the
large depositors from gaining the
advantage of saving their deposits at
were not aware of the circumstances,
the government refused to let the
bank open.
PITTSBURGH, July 9.-When the
Pittsburgh Bank for Savings opened
for business this morning the run
that was started on Monday upon the
closing of the doors of the First
Second National Bank was resumed
but not in such volume as the two
preceding days.
Police regulations continued to be
maintained and all the receiving win
dows were thrown open for the use
of those desiring to withdraw money
from the bank.
Those who came to deposit found
much difficulty in being waited on
quickly, and complaints from these,
President w. J. Jones, who was
elected yesterday, said were demon
stration of the confidence in the
bank.
