COMPLAINT AGAINST RATES
ON MOUNT VERNON DIVISION
Objection Is Made TO Charges for
Communication 10 Addison and
Virginia Highlands

In a petition filed with the Interstate
Commerce Commission yesterday. COM
mutation rates on the Mount Vernon di-
vision of the Washington Utilities Com
psny, particularly. between this city and
Addison and Virginia Highlands, Va.
are complained against by the Virginia
Highlands Citizens Association and the
charge is made that the rates are sub
stantially the same as those to stations
two or more miles farther on. even the
came as those to Alexandria, Va.
IT is also charged that the rates are
such as to give the commuter little or no
advantage over the occasional traveller.
The petition declares that the existing
rates are unduly discriminatory; that the
Communication rate to Alexandria is such
that it reduces the single fare and round
trip fare practicallyNto the same as those
applying to Addison and Virginia High
lands, and that the lack OF transfer priv
ileges with District of Columbia lines in
wolves extra expense. The petitioners
ask the commission for a hearing and an
investigation, and an order for reason
able and Just rates.

Washington a few days ago that Senator
replied that Col. Roosevelt might prove
to be the proper man TO reunite the Re
publicans.
Object of Conference.
Senator Wesley Jones, who, with Sem
at~- Cummins. is a member of the sub
committee that is acting for the Chicago
conference in the matter OF bringing
about nationwide conference by call
of the Republican national committee to
consider plans for rehabilitating the Re
publican party, made Il clear that the
movement with which he is identified is
not designed to forestall Col. Roosevelt
He declared that the object of the con-
ference was to restore the Republican
party TO power. Asked II a Republican
convention in 1916 could be brought TO
the point OF accepting Roosevelts plat
form of last year, Senator Jones replied
that nearly all Republicans could sub
scribe to the planks In that platform,
with probably the exception of one,
namely. the recall OF judicial decisions.
The surprising feature to political OBJ
servers here is the prompt acquiescence
of so many prominent Republicans in
Congress. who have been classed as
regulars" in the suggestion that Roose-
welt will probably be the party leader
in 1916. All OF this proceeds on the
theory that Col. Roosevelt would be
willing 10 head the Republican ticket If
the Republicans would be willing to
adopt mis- platform. But no word has
come from Col. Roosevelt himself. so
far as any one can learn.
A story was current Friday that Will
lam Loeb. jr., had been interviewing
Republican Senators on the feasibility OF
fusion plan for Republicans and Pro-

the nomination of Roosevelt for Presi-
dent Mr.. Leob talked with several Re
publican Senators Friday, buT he dis
cussed tariff matters and business and
il can be stated positively that he was
not here on a political mission. 1t is
generally believed here that Col. Roose-
welt is not unfriendly to the plan. al
though there is nothing to show that be
has made move TO advance it,
Declared to Be Logical.
Not single Republican who has sug.
gested Roosevelt as the probable nomi-
nee could give any other reason for
making the suggestion than that II
seemed logical. and that the colonel would
be willing 10 accept II the Republicans
adopted his code Of political principles
Undoubtedly there is a considerable ele-
ment among the regular Republicans

who would not vote for Roosevelt If he
were the Republican nominee. But II is
very evident that there are many OF them

No one familiar with national politics
doubts where Senator Lodge of Massa,

Eichus to Be Worn This Fall.

From Paris comes the announce.
ment that in fall neckwear fichu ef-
fects, to be worn either with separ-
ate blouses or with the fashionable
and popular onepiece dress, are to be
strongly favored. Old lace, if one is
so fortunate as to possess such a
thing, is used more advantageously
in a fichu than any other type, but
innumerable fabrics are thus en-
ployed.

waist line, and hanging straight from
the shoulders, shows how easy and
comfortable looking 1t is. The waist

over the top of the skirt and the eff.
