ipal ownership will spread like dew
throughout the United States If the
District OF Columbia takes over and
operates its street car lines" de-
clared Representative Crosser, OF
Ohio, today,
We will surprise the United Stats
by showing how successful municipal
ownership can be" he added. I'VE
will demonstrate 10 every city in the
country the real advantages or mn-
nicipal ownership.
Crosser. who Is author OF a bill
now before the house providing for
the condemnation of the los miles OF
tracks and all the car property In
the District, said today he firmly be-
lieyed the bill would pass both the
house and senate. one senator told
him, he added. TO get il through the
house and wen show you how quickly
the senate can decide the question"
Ii rs proposed in the bill 10 pay the
two corporations owning the street

erty
III Washington city goes into the
street railway business II VIII be the
greatest lesson for the people OF the
country that this district will ever
teach" asserted Crosser. More
people from more communities come
TO this city every year than go 10 any
other place in the United States. In
addition there are representatives
here OF every community. When
these two classes OF citizens see how
successful municipal ownership is
they will demand II in their local
tiles.
Crosser believes the benefits from
municipal ownership viii be greater
than its friends now anticipate. The
biggest thing he expects Is q reduc-
ton in fares. Better service will
come second, he added Strong sup.
port is assured Crosser by various
members OF congress with municipal
ownership "hobbies." One OF the
most outspoken is Representative
Bryan. OF Washington. who declares
he will fight throughout the remainder
OF the session for the bill II IL is
brought up before adjournment.
Crosser declared today that the
hardest point in the fight for the bill
had passed That was, he said, the
in the committee where
he was opposed at every step by
street railroad interests throughout
the country He does not believe
these corporations will be able to !
fight as hard before congress.

PARIS, June 16.-Belief that the
death list in the storm which swept
Paris yesterday would number nearly
a score was expressed today when
workmen began digging in the deb
ris OF several streets, sunk IN by the
terrible deluge of rain.
Four are known to have persisted.
The bodies of two--a man and a wo-
man--were recovered, horribly crush
ed, from gaping excavation Is by
30 feet, where the Rue Trochet, Rue
Auber and Boulevard Haussman In
tersected. The street sank under the
washing out OF overtaxed sewers. a
man and a woman in a taxicab pass
ing nearby were engulfed in the slid
ing mass OF earth and crushed TO
death.
A number of families reported some
OF their loved ones missing today,
and vigorous search in the debris
was started.
In addition TO the cave-in on the
Boulevard Haussman, a big section OF
roadway on the Place Saint Philippe
iu Roule, at the intersection of Rue
Ia Boetie and the Rue du Faubourg
Saint Honore also sank. A large sec
ton OF Paris was without lights all
last night.
A dozen persons who were under
the caves of the churh of st. Phil
lippe du Roule, we're drawn into the
cave-in and a number are believed to
have persisted. Spectators say a
woman and three children were
buried alive.
At Choisy lie Roi, suburb, at least
two are dead from lightning and a
number OF others were reported In
jured in the collapse OF part OF the
roadway.
Suburban cities all reported great
damage by the storm. II was believ-
ed there might be loss OF life at sew
eral places by lightning.
