NEW MONEY ORDER PLAN.
Postoffice Department Would Cash
Checks at Any Station.

Washington Officials Of the postof-
fee department have determined to
urge congress at the regular session to
amend the postal laws SO that money
orders may be paid ut any postofiicc in
the country, although drawn on II Civ
en- Office A committee appointed by
Alexander NJ. Dockcry, third assistant
postmaster general, has worked out
details of the plan.
Information has reached the depart
mcnt that the express companies al
ready are opposing the plan because IT
would mean sharp curtailment Of the
money order business handled by
them The expectation Is that bank
ing interests also win oppose the plan,
as IT would be likely to cut into tn"
bank draft business.
Under such system money order
would be treated identically as draft
or express money order, The party 10
whom such an order was made out
would indorsc it just the same az a
draft or check, making II payable n

A GOOD LIFE ENDED
Crawford Ross Dies at the Pres
byterian Hospital, Chicago
WAS I'LL ONLY A SHORT TIME
Assistant Corporation Counsel for
Chicago. Practiced Law in the
City for Several Years and Was
Active in Civic Affairs.

Crawford Ross closed his earthly
career at about four O'Clock Monday
afternoon at the Presbyterian hospital
in Chicago. He had been at the hos
During the first week in December he
had trouble with one of his eyes and
went to an occulist, DR.. Nance, who
found that one of the arteries of the
eye was ruptured and advised him to
go to Dr.. Post for more complete
diagnosis. DR.. Post at once discovered
that he was suffering from nephritis,
and at the hospital also discovered
that his blood pressure was over 200,
that he had endocarditis. This dag
nosis was confirmed by DR.. Billings.
The end came more quickly than even
the skilled physicians expected, and the
manner of its coming was blessing, as
the patient passed from sleep to his
eternal rest without any of the excruci-
ating suffering so often attendant on
lingering cases of nephritis.
Crawford Ross, eldest son of Mr.. and
Mrs. William S. Ross, was born Nov. 3,
1880. He graduated from the Mineral
Point High School in 1899, from the
University of Wisconsin in 1903, and
from the law school of the University
of Chicago, (cum laude), in 1905 He
then began his professional career in
the law Office of Richer, Montgomery,
Hart & Abbott, continuing there for
one year, and afterwards practiced
with Arthur w. Underwood for six
months, then entered into private prac
tice.
Mr.. Ross was charter member of
the University of Chicago Kappa Sigma
fraterdity; (after graduation was al
umni representative member of the
Delta Chi law fraternity, member Of the
Chicago bar association, of the Illinois
Athletic club, the Chicago association
of the Chicago Alumni, the Iroquois
club, and had been invited to join the
new Chicago bar club, an organization
whose membership is limited to four
hundred lawyers. He was member Of
the Chicago Association of the Alumni
of the University Of Wisconsin.
Politically, Mr.. Ross was Democrat.
and gave active and efficient service to
the party organization III Chicago. At
the time of his death he was both pre-
cinct committeeman and county central
committeeman. Under the Harrison
administration, he was appointed one
Of the assistant corporation counsel Of
the city Of Chicago, and was entrusted
with very important cases. On the
same day that he went 10 the hospital
he argued a demurrer in the Marshall
Field subway case The demurrer was
sustained, 10 his great satisfaction, as
he had himself drafted the ordinance
