During the evening, while the depar.
ture from the circles of the local com.
pany, of Mr.. Gallaher was regretted,
there was feeling of citation over the
fact that graduate from the local
system had been chosen to head such
an important concern as the Charles
ton company. Mr.. Gallahsr's home is
in Charleston, fact which makes the
new position doubly enjoyable to him.
The party left the city on the six
o'clock car, dinner being served half
an hour later. At the table were
Messrs. s. B. Miller, Walton Miller,
Walter stockley, George T.. Watson,
Albert T. Watson, Smith Hood, o. F.

HIGHLAND PARK

Detroit Commissioners Refuse to
Extend Service to Outside
municipalities

The annual threat of cutting on
Highland Park, st. Clair Heights.
Hamtramck, Crosse Pointe Park, Oak
wood, River Rouge and Dcorse, from
the city's water supply. was made al
meeting OF the water board, Tues.
day afternoon.
william G.. Patterson. water com
missioner OF Highland Park, appeared
before the board to request the laying
OF about seven miles OF additional wa
ter pipe In the village. The village
has bought the pipe at cost OF $22,-
900. Commissioner Thomas F. Com
erford voiced his objection to supply
Ing any water to Highland Park until
the city consumers are more amply
provided for. President Wilkie de-
clared that people move outside the
city limits because OF the cheaper
taxes there. and the people In the city
are burdened with more taxes TO fur
nish them with water supply.
Other commissioners announced
their opposition TO any extension or
the water system In Highland PARK
at the present time. and the matter
was held up. President Wilkie said
that a resolution was being prepared
which would take care OF all the SUI
burban towns receiving their water
supply from the city. About 4,0O0,0oo
gallons of water are now being pump
ed daily to surrounding villages
greatly overtaxing the pumping faciii-
ties OF the city plant.

the freight service Of both roads. and
lays down rules which. II eventually
adopted will revolutionize railway
operations throughout the country
"In the opinion of the commission,
the report says. the following propo-
sitions lie at the foundation of all
adequate regulation Of interstate rail-
ways: Every interstate railroad
should be prohibited from expending
money or incurring liability or ac-
quiring property not in the opera
tion of It's railroad or in the legiti-
mate improvement. extension or de-
velopment OF that railroad-no inter-
state railroad should be permitted to
lease or purchase any other railroad,
nor TO acquire the stocks OF any other
railroad, nor 10 guarantee the same,
directly or indirectly, without the ap-
proval OF the federal government: no
stocks or bonds should be issued by
an interstate railroad except for the
purchases sanctioned in the two pre-
ceding paragraphs. and none should
be issued without the approval OF the
federal government"
The commission found that while
New England passenger service is
good. there Is room for Improvement.
and that while the freight service OF
the New Haven road Is inferior. II
compares favorably with that of other
sections similarly situated.

With SOlOns

WASHINGTON, July 9.-There was
a distinct possibility today that the
Mulhall charges may cause open
rupture in the senate lobby investigat-
ing committee. There was grave
difference of opinion among the mem
bers regarding how far the committee
can go in probing Mulhalls allega-
tions. There is no question OF its
right 10 inquire into his activity in
shaping legislation and making and
upmaking lawmakers who opposed
him and his organization, the National
Association OF Manufacturers.
But on the question of unveiing his
strike-breaking proclivities there is a
difference of opinion AT least one Of
the committee members does not be-
lieve the committee can go into this
phase. because its inquiry is limited,
under the creative Cummins resolu
ton, TO the lobby matters.
When the hearing was resumed to-
day the committee had on hand a
number of MINOR witnesses dealing
with the wool ana sugar lobbying, but
there was possibility that they
would be sidetracked early and Null

incidentally, there was much specula-

they have letters from Mulhall asking
