Long Island Man Now
Sees No Other Hope
for Railroads.
IMPROVEMENT PLANS
MUST BE CURTAILED
H. R. Towne Thinks Beginning
of Recognition of Companies
Rights Is at Hand.

Railroad men pleaded for more time,
when asked last night to express an
opinion on the decision OF the Inter-
state Commerce Commission on the
advance in freight rates sought by the
Eastern railroads. Ralph Peters, pres
idont of the Long Island Railroad, pre-
dictcd what would happen TO his road
unless some relief we're forthcoming.
"The decision, so far as have heard
about it, is disappointing. suppose
we'll have to go on struggling and,
when we get chance, get down on our
knees to the Legislature and ask them
for permission to raise our passenger
fares. That's the only hope for the
present.
80 far as the Long Island is con
cerned the setback is a real blow. IL
means that all our elaborate plans for
improvements and new work, the elm
nation of grade crossings and the like,
must be suspended. We shall con
-inue the programme laid out for the
nres.nt wear. but after that will come
retrenchment.
East trains will probably have to
be taken of and each train be made
10 do more work. People who have to
travel over our lines will be able to
do so, but it will be at our convent

over an embankment on a mountain
road near North Pownal, VI.
Miss Mary Haughton. daughter of Al
bert c. Haughton, of North Adams, was
fatally injured. Her spine was broken.
Mr.. Haughton suffered fractured arm

John Widders, the chauffeur. who were
riding on the front seat, escaped with
minor bruises.
Mrs. Hutton and her son, Robert. jr.,
had been visiting relatives in North

"The Golden Almond" by Edmund
Yerrow, which appears in the Sunday
magazine of The Tribune, August .. is
curious story. Brandon, the main
character, after numerous efforts to
bolster up his courage, finally bought
a beautiful book and decided that in
presenting it to his sweetheart, Belle.
he would offer his hand and heart with
it. When he reached the house, how
ever, he was told that Belle had just
died. He wandered TO the funeral
services a day or two later and saw in
the coffin a Jewel he had bought for
the girl and left in his room. Dazed,
he fed from the house, Some one
held a carriage door open for him. He
sprang in, and the door shut with a
bang. As the carriage rolled away
something ratified against the roof,
and he thought he heard the sound Of
merry laughter behind him." And
Belle was sitting beside him. They
had Just been married and we're OF on
their honeymoon.

It's an astonishing idea. The pictures
