Attorney Martin said. generally have
settled these cases out of court for
large damages. SO per cent of which
invariably went to the lawyers.
The alleged perjury in Murray's case
concerned his testimony at a coroner's
inquest year ago regarding the death
OF James FLETCHER. who had been acci-
dentally electrocuted. Murray. who
was Fletcher's foreman. is said to have
testified that although it was his Gus

the danger of live wires. he failed to do
SO on the day of the accident.
The verdict Of the coroner's jury de-
clared the New Haven road had been
negligent. Suit for damages was

NEGRO AMERICANA BEGUN
At HOWARD UNIVERSITY
Collection Of Books, Documents,
Records and Available Data on
Race Being Assembled.

Howard University has just under
taken to make a collection of books
documents, records and other available
data bearing upon the negro race on
the American continent. The univer-
sity already possesses several impor-
tant individual collections as basis of
the proposed Negro Americana.
Many years ago the library Of Lewis
Tappan, the anti-slavery advocate. was
given to this institution. John w.
Cromwell. secretary of the American
Negro Academy and author of ''The
Negro in American History several
years ago placed at the disposal of the
university "the Cathcart Clippings
covering the period of the civil war
and reconstruction. This collection
consists of scores Of volumes of clip
pings touching the various phases of
that epoch and the negro's relation to
it.

Less Activity in 1914 Than in Can
ada-Equipment Orders
Fall Off.

For the first time in the history of
railroading in the United States some
other country has exceeded this coun-
try in the mileage of new railroad built
during the year, according to statistics
compiled by the Railway Age Gazette.
This condition was nearly approached
in 1913. when the railways of Canada
built almost as many miles as were
built in this country.
In 1914 the total mileage of new rail-
road constructed in the United States
was 1881, as compared with 3,071 in
1913. while the Canadian roads built
1878 miles, as compared with 1910 in
1913. Not only is the total for the
United States only about half of that
for the year before. but it is the lowest
for any year since 1895, and only about
25 per cent of that for 1902. the high
record year. In addition to the new
lines built, there was constructed 565
miles of new second track and ten miles
of third track. In 1913 1858 miles Of
second track was built.

Built by 1875 Companies.

The new mileage in the United States
was built by 165 companies, as COM
pared with 23S companies building in
1914. No new mileage was reported
from Mexico. While In previous years
the greatest mileage of new line has
been built in the west, in 1914 the state
of Florida heads the list with 220
miles. The other states with over 100
miles of new line are Washington, Ida
ho and California. At the close Of the
year LOIS miles of new first track was
under construction and uncompleted.
The tota: for 1918 was 1,522 miles.
After new mileage built, one of the
best indications of the progress of the
railways during year is the extent to
which they have added to their equip
ment, and the Railway Age Gazette
has also compiled statistics showing
the number of freight and passenger
cars and locomotives ordered from the
manufacturers during the year, and
also of those built during the year.
Equipment Orders.
This latter figure is likely to reflect
the conditions existing in the previous
year when much Of the equipment ac-
tually built during 1914 was ordered.

NEW YORK POLICE MAKE
GRUESOME FIND IN ICE
Two Burlap Bags Containing Parts
of Human Body Picked Up
in Marsh. .

NEW YORK, January 1.-TWO burlap
bags were discovered last night i'm
bedded in ice in marsh in a suburban
section of Brooklyn, and when examin-
ed in a police station one was found
to contain the torso of a human being
and the other a frozen bundle wrapped
in a sheet believed to contain the arms
and legs.
Wrapped about the torso was a news
paper of date of December 21, a petit
coat, a skirt and other clothing. In the
second bag was a newspaper printed in
Italian.
Examination today led the police to
believe the body wrapped in burlap
was that of a man.
Evening star., 1915-01-02
Wrapped in Burlap Bags.

The torso was wrapped in two bur-
lap bags, and patrolmen and detec-
tives searched all night in the Long
Island meadow where the two bundles
were found, in the hope of locating the
missing parts of the body. The police
were especially anxious to ind the
head that the identity of the supposed
ly murdered man might be established.
The bags were first seen by boy
who was passing near the spot. The
boy led a detective to the place, who
ripped open the exposed top OF one of
the bags.
