CUMMINS FUNERAL
MAY BE SEMl-0FFIClAL

Up to noon today arrangements for
the funeral of the late J. A. Cummins
had not teen decided. About town
the suggestion is heard that a semi
state funeral would be appropriate,
in view of the fact that Mr.. Cummins
once held the premiership of the Ha-
waiian kingdom and was long'a prom
inent figure in the public life of the
country, It is probable that this dis
tinction will be given to the obsequies
by having al least a military escort
with the band in attendance. Judge
Dole. who was president of the re-
public and, commander-in-ehie of its
forces when Mr.. Cummins was dealt
with by the military commission, was
to be asked to act as one of the hon
orary pall-tearers, according TO a re-
port this morning. His appearance in
this role would be a signal evidence
of the obliteration of all harsh feel
ings obtaining in the troublous period
Of eighteen years ago.

SEEKS
DEATH UNDER
STREETCAR

Believed to be intent upon commit
ting suicide by deliberately jumping in
front of Rapid Transit car No. 49, in
charge of Conductor Young, as it was
passing over the McCully tract, a Ko
rean named Pi Yong Long received in
Juries this morning which necessitated
his removal to the Queens Hospital
The only statement made by the in
jured man was his name, and, accord
ing to the motorman, the man was
evidently seeking death under the
wheels of the rapidly car. The
car was coming across the track on
mine points, as is thetusuai custom
Snd when about half way across the
motorman noticed a man standing
near the track. apparently waiting for
the car to pass. As the car ap-
preached him he sprang toward the
middle of the track. directly in the
path of the oncoming car. AS he
made the leap, his foot slipped on the
wet bank, the front of the running
hoard striking him and hurting him to
one side. The motorman, although he
slowed his car down as it approached
the man. did not stop it, as the man
did not jump until the front OF the
car was directly opposite him.
After the man had been struck. the
car was Immediately brought to a
standstill, and the injured man placed
aboard and taken as far as King
street. Superintendent Pratt, who
happened to be passing as the car
turned into King street, had the man
placed in his automobile, where he
was conveyed to the hospital. He was
reported by the hospital authorities
this noon to be suffering from several
painful bruises. Otherwise, the man
is in no danger. .~~- H..

FRANCHISE TALK
MUCH COOLED

The wordy combat over the Rapid
Transit franchise between Governor
Frear and Secretary Mott-Smith on
the one side, and President L. Tenny
Peck and w R. Castle on the other,
apparently is closed chapter. As the
result of an informal meeting at the
Universit yClub during the, luncheon
hour yesterday, between the governor,
the secretary, Mr. Peck and L. A.
Thurston, the public is now informed
that an "amicable settlement" is in
sight
True, there will be more talk but
it is to be over table and glass Of
lemonade and a sandwich, at close
range, instead of through the public
prints, with heavy-firing, long distance
guns. Whether il is TO be a compro-
mise is not stated in just so many
WORDS by either side. =
Governor Frear, asked this morning
as to the interesting conversation
that took place over the club luncheon
replied he couldn't quote it, there was
10 stenographer present, and more
over, that il was of a quite general
nature.
He would extend the franchise thir-
ty-seven years from the present date,
bringing its expiration up to 1850 But
in return, he asserts, he would get RID
Of the present franchise, with its ex-
tremely faulty, and for the interval
of seventeen years that it yet has te
run, would have another giving more
to the people and less to the company
In other words. he says, il is a ques-
tion Of whether it is better to have a.
new charter, providing good regula-
tions for thirty-seven years, or per
mitting a bad charter TO exist seven
teen years longer -.. r." ..
If the changes that he wants in the
franchise can be obtained, he will
favor another charter now. to take eff
feet at once. .
