From all we can gather about the
late legislature, that young man from
Marion, Edw. Spencer, was on eof the
very ablest members, Notwithstanding
he was probably the Youngest man in
that assemblage. His attitude on
public questions generally was cor
rect, and he was responsible for the
long and short haul bill, which seems
to be about the most important meas
ure that became a law. We expect to
hear more and bigger things from this
young man-Lakeland Telegram.

TEST ON NEW HAVEN
Engineers Complaint of Engine
in Stamford Wreck Found
Justified by Trials.

STAMFORD. Conn.,. June 1s.-Eight
times, between the distance signal at
Glenbrook and the home signal, Just
east of the New Haven railroad station
here, the run of the second section Of
tAe Boston Express which ended last
Thursday in the death Of six passengers
and the injury of twenty more, in the
wooden Pullman parlor car Skylark, al
the rear end of the first section, was
sre-enacted.
Once the run was made under exactly
the conditions which prevailed when
Engineer Charles j. Dougherty was a,
the throttle. The train ran 255 feet fur
ther than it did with Dougherty-four
car lengths further. In one other test,
which was called an application of the
brakes as "Dougherty should have
made IT, the train stopped barely
short of the point where the Skylark
stood.
3 No official statement has yet been
made of the conclusions reached by
the airbrake experts from other roads
and the State and Government officials
who witnessed the tests, but 1t can be
said with authority that Dougherty's
complaint regarding the behavior OF
engine No. 1858 was proved to have been
well justified, and that as a further
result the New Haven railroad viii have
70 teach its men a new braking prac-
stice, at least as far as the 1900 type
of engines Is concerned.
Airbrake System Fails.
4 No. 13ss's behavior in the test was
not only found to be '.ugly." but with
the making Of the final test its air
brake system broke down completely.

Experts To Give Verdict.
.At the hearings which Interstate
Commerce Commissioner McChord will
begin at Bridgeport the verdict of the
experts who witnessed the tests win be
heard. It can be said that their concIu-
sions win follow these lines: nEr -
That Dougherty lost too much ali
with too little result In seeking to stop
his train as he did.
That one principal reason for this was
the stiffness Of the '13o0' type of en-
CINE he was using.
That still more important reason
was his insufficient knowledge of brak-
ing, resulting from the briefness of his
service as an engineer and lack OF in
struction. .,ssss l7s-'-gs's'Ts -

AWAIT DECISION
ON LOAN SHARKS"
District Officials May Force
Money Lenders to Move
From New Locations.

CORPORATION Counsel Thomas and his
assistants are awaiting a report from
Attorney General McReynolds on the
case referred to the Department Of
Justice to determine whether the offices
opened by pawnbrokers and loan
sharks or the Virginia side Of the
Highway bridge, In an effort to circum-
vent the District laws, In reality are
on District soil and not in Virginia
IF the Attorney General decides that
to be District soil. then the pawn
brokers' will have 10 abide by the pawn
brokerage laws, or move farther south. '
said Assistant Corporation Counsei
Stephens in commenting on the case.
When the law providing that pawn
brokers must pay license OF 800 a
year. give a bond of 5000. and keep
their books OPEN to inspection. went
into effect last March the pawnbrokers
eral moved to the Virginia side of the
Highway bridge and carried on their
Ask for Board Platform.
Permission then was asked Of the War
Department to permit the erection of
board platform at the south approach
to the bridge, in order to make connec-
tions with buildings erected by the
pawnbroker on ground near the river on
a lower level than the bridge approach.
Judge Advocate General Crowder. Of
the army. few weeks ago ruled that
there would be no objections On the part
of the Government to the erection of
such a platform. Before any action was
taken, however. Colonel Cosby. the en-
gineer officer in charge OF public build
ings and grounds. found an old map
which opened a question Of whether
the land on which the pawnbrokers had
built in reality was not on District
soil
The jurisdiction OF the District over
the Potomac extends to high-water
mark on the Virginia shore. The old
map shows that the land now occupied
by the southern approach to the bridge
formerly was known as Alexander's
island. and was surrounded by water,
coming therefore under the Jurisdiction
of the District of Columbia.
The War Department has suspended
action on the petition of the pawn
brokers for the right to build the plat
form until the Attorney General rules
as to the. ownership of the land in
volved; If it is held to be in Virginia.
War Department officials declare there
will be no opposition to the work.
Prepare for Appeal.
The Corporation CounsePs office is
making preparations to appeal to the
District Circuit Court of Appeals from
the decision of Chief Justice Clabaugh,
of the District Supreme Court. holding
the pawnbrokers' law unconstitutional
The District officials believe the law as
IL applies to pawnbrokers is too Sc
we're. as loan sharks and not pawn
brokers were the men against whom the
attack was directed.
Unless the higher court overrules
Judge Clabaugh, however. the entire
law will become imperative. not only
as II affects pawnhrokers. but loan
sharks as well. The provision prevent
ing the charging Of any greater interest
than / per cent a month has driven the
loan sharks out Of the District, and the
Corporation Counsel wants to keep them
out.
