ETY. Commission a lot of space, the
Daily News was one of the most ar
dent supporters of the commission.
Vic Lawson's writers banged type
writers for hours lauding the work of
the commission and denouncing the
autoists who careen madly over Chi
cago streets:
But no mention was ever made of
the newspaper auto trucks which
thunder along the streets and boule-
ward, shattering all speed limits.
Mrs. Keane, the widow. says the
chauffeur was going a terrific speed
when the car crushed her husband.
After the accident the chauffeur
sped away. And his identity has been
kept hidden ever since.
The police were particularly in
active in view of the attitude Of the
states attorneys Office which is pro-
scouting all auto death cases if the
chauffeur is found to blame. The re-
cent 14-years' sentence which they
secured for one man that ran down
and killed a pedestrian shows the
way they feel.

COURT CITES THEI. &C.
IN SUIT Of SHIPPERS
Must Answer Petition Filed in Con-
troversy Regarding Common
Carrier Issue.

Justice Anderson Of the District Su-
preme Court today cited the interstate
commerce commission to show cause
Friday why a writ of mandamus
should not issue to compel it to enter
an order in the Industrial Railways
case in reference to the Newburgh
and South Shore Railway Company
The commission January 20 last filed
its written report. but it seems not
to have made an order.
The citation is based on a petition
filed by shippers and receivers Of
freight over the Newburgh and South
Shore Railway Company, who claim
that if the finding of the interstate
commerce commission that the South
Shore road is not a common carrier Is
put into effect they will be entirely
deprived of common carrier railroad
services and facilities. Until the order
of the commission is filed no appeal
may be taken, it is stated. and no op-
portunity given to have change made
in the finding, which is alleged to be
illegal.
