|ME[[EN READY ID
 RESUME HEARING
Again in Washington Ready to Appear Before
 the 1. C. c.

Washington, May 1S.-Charles E. Mel len, former president of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, ar rived tonight in Washington to resume before the interstate commerce commits sion tomorrow his testimony dealing with financial transactions of the New Haven road and it's subsidiaries Chief Counsel Folk of the commission an- nounced tonight that there had been no change in the programme for the inquiry.
 Mir Meilen has informed the commits sion that he will reveal all facts in his possession concerning the intricate stock manipulations by which the New Haven acquired some of it's subsidiaries. He promises to give not only dates and de- tails of the transactions, but the names of persons who promoted and profited by them.
 In the opinion of members of the com mission. such revelations may give those who lost money through the transactions power to recover some at least of their losses through court proceedings
 It appeared unlikely tonight that any of the New Haven's directors would be called to testify before MT. Mellens narrative. It was expected he will be on the stand several days

A committee was also appointed to make plans for the education of the public, and the protection of the youth against the cigarette habit.
 The council promised the scout move ment it's indorsement and cooperation in an educational campaign for the read ing of better books among boys. This latter part of June.

duction will be free every day in the week.
 All are invited to see part one this week as it will not be repeated after Sunoay next.
 In addition to the motion and stereopti- con pictures there are several panarama. views shown in the first part of the photoplay. One of these portrays the pyramids and sphinx of Egypt in vivid style. The photographic explanation ac- companying it is to the effect that both contain corrobative testimony proving the authenticity of the scriptures. The Abydos ablet is also shown. and 1t is claimed that this. too. corresponds with the gene ology contained in the Book of Genesis in Il remarkable and convincing manner.
 For the convenience of mothers who cannot leave their young children at home and yet who wish to see the Creation drama it has been arranged to provide a room in the Biiou where they may leave the little ones in the care of elderly women who have seen the pictures and have volunteered their services so that the babies will not disturb the congrega- tion and interfere with the photographic Itctures There will be no charge in con- necton with the nursery and no danger to the children.

RAILROADS CLAIMS
 AGAINST U. $. ARE
 DENIED IN TEST CASE

Washington, May 1S.-Claims of mail carrying railroads against the United States, aggregating $31.000,0OO, and involv- ing 72o railroads, were denied in a test case decided today by the court of claims. In an opinion by Chief Justice Campbell the court reversed former ruling and held that the present method of weigh ing mail to fix compensation for trans portation is legal and proper.
 Prior to 1907 the postoffice department in weighing mail secured the average daily weight by weighing the mail carried for a period of 105 days and dividing the total by 90, the number of days exclusive of Sundays. Since 1907 the department has recognized Sunday as a working day and has made the divisor 16. By this means the railroads contended they were carry ing about one-seventh of the mall without compensation.
 This contention was upheld by the court of claims during the last administra ton, but Assistant Attorney General Huston Thompson secured a rehearing, which re- suited in todays decision. The original finding would have held the government liable for 31,000,000 to 72 different roads.

BURNETT IS SAID ] ID BE THREATENED ! sbYFORM|DAbLEFOE
Republicans and Progress sives Will Have National Aid in Effort to De-
 feat Him

Formidable opposition to the reelection of John l.. Burnett as congressman of the Seventh district, Is erystallizing. ac- cording to information received by Age Herald representatives yesterday.
 MT. Burnett was recently nominated by the democrats. The fact that his dis trict is generally considered doubtful has prompted republicans and progressives to combine in the hope that out of the general scrimmage throughout the state, one plum might be acquired by them.
 Strong pressure will be made to induce Sumter Cogswell of Per City to make an- other try for the congressional berth, and it is considered probable that MT. Gogswell will run. In the event that he does not, Amos Goodhue of Gadsden, is considered the probable candidate.
 It is learned that the national republi- can committee will aid in a financial way the opponent of the democratic nomi- nee. The democrats are very confident, and entertain no fear for the safety of their nominee. This year will probably he the last in which democrats will be hard pressed in the Seventh. The redis tricting of the state VIII result in a re- arrangement whereby the republicans will not be so strong as they are at present.
 In the recent democratic primary. MT. Burnett carried every county fin his dis trict over his opponent, l.. B. Rainey. He feels certain of trouncing the republi- cans as easily as he has done in the past.
