Paris, July 1.-THE French govern
hent- will demand reparation from

Fbergeant major of dragons at the
hands of persons unknown in Berlin,
according to La Liberte. The Incl
dent occurred at the French embassy

dent and adding that the person guilty
of the French soldiers death will be
punished.
Russian Blockade Chief Topic.
The Council of Five met yesterday,
its chief topic being the Russian
blockade. There have been proposals
that the powers shall allow ships to
enter Russian ports under special
permits, the United States having con-
stantly insisted that there has been
no blockade against Russia except
such as is incidental to the embargo
| on imports to Germany. Consequent.
ly the American delegates were not
ready to take any action in the matter
| until instructions have been received
| from Washington.
It has been suggested that most OF
the Black sea ports could be blockaded
by the Denekine government, which is
friendly to the Allies, but the Supreme
council has not decided to ask him to
| declare such a blockade.

NEW STREET CAR TO KEEP
FARES AT Low RATES

DETROIT, Mich, April 18. - The
present-day electrically driven street
car is ON the way to the scrap-heap
The forests Of poles, innumerable
miles of wires and cables and power
houses are doomed.
Street railway traffic will be revo.
lutionized by a new street car, mo-
tivated by a gasoline engine, all OF
its own. 1t will carry its own power
depending on no external agency.
Cost of operations will be reduced
by about one half. Waste of powc,
will be eliminated. There will be nc
speak load" to worry about.
The above is in substance the be-
lief of Charles E. Sorensen, general
manager Of the Ford tractor plant ir
Dearborn, Mich.
"Every engineer and railway man
ager knows that the present street
car system is too imperfect to last,
The daily morning oasis., 1919-04-19

said Sorensen. Engineers condemn
the present stret railway system "
erywhere on the ground of expense.
1t costs too much. Great dynamos
capable of carrying the peak loads
of modern traffic are required along
with tons of costly cables, food wires
and bonds made Of copper; great
numbers of poles, cross-arns and
hangers.
"Besides that the weight of the
motors compel more heavily con-
structed cars than the traffic really
calls for. All this leads to street
danger, the elimination of service that
lighter, but fully as strong cars could
perform and all other inconvenience
Of which car-riders complain. Then
the destruction wrought on under
ground conduits and pipes by electro
lysis is a constant source of expense
and loss that every department OF
public works knows"
"The modern electric car has beer
weighed in the balance of efficiency

Sorensen said his company was now
at work on gasoline engine which
will supplant the electric motor in
street railway transportation.
"This engine" he said, will be-
come the standard power equipmetn
on street cars because, it is cheaper.
The cost of operating the electric car
is "a cents per car mile. The cost
of operating gasoline propelled car
of the same capacity is IL cents
To retain the old low rate Of car
fares, cars must be operated at a
lower cost and the gasoline driven
car solves the problem, Sorensen said.

Federal Regulation.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13-Excoriation
of the Big Five packers was the bur
den of three-hour argument made be
fore the senate agricultural committee
yesterday by Edward /. Burke of Omaha.
Neb,, vice president of the American Ma
tional Livestock association, who asked
the immediate passage of the Kendrick
and Kenyon bills for federal regulation
of the packing industry.
What the big packers need" Mr.
Burke declared, lis common sense enough
to accept fair federal regulation. The
trouble in the industry is that they think
themselves bigger than the government
send them straight to destruction"
The Livestock association, Mr.. Burke
said, was proud of its connection with the
federal trade commission investigation OF
the industry, but he added ''the state
ment that the association used undue in
tiuence with the commission is a lie
Cattle associations in almost every state

Kenyon bill, and wanted the packers di,

The big ISSUE he continued, SIS

tween producer and consumer
| Dealing with the previous testimony o.
cattle producers who have objected to the

| Mr.. Burke said that the witnesses heart
| had not represented any considerable sen
timent among farmers and ranchers.
The attitude of a few of these larg,
cattle producers can be well understood,
he asserted. They have large bunche:

1.-The members of the Boston Police
men s union have accepted the sugges-
ton of President Samuel Gompers of
the A. f. of L., and have instructed
their committee to act in accordance.
Frank M. Mccarthy
This message was given out from
the meeting of the Policemen s
union at 1870 last night. 1t referred
to a telegram sent by Mr. Gompers yes
terday morning to Mr.. Mccarthy, urg-
ing that the Boston policemen return
to their work, and to another telegram
from Mr. Gompers to Mayor Peters,
asking that the policemen be permitted
to return, that the whole situation 90
back to where it was before the strike
order was made, and that Rule 35,''
forbidding the policemen to join a
anon, should be held in allegiance until
after the meeting on Oct 6, which has
been called by President Wilson.
Mayor Peters replied to the president
of the federation of labor that the sug-
gestion ought to have been made to
Gov. Coolidge. The mayor also pointed
out that the situation in Boston was
not analogous to that in Washington.
where policemen S strike is threat
|ened on similar grounds to that which
underlies the Boston strike.
Mr.. Mccarthy S announcement was
communicated to Henry Long, seere-
tary to Gov Coolidge. Mr.. Long re-
Piled that the governor had retired
for the night and could not be dis
turbed.
Police Commissioner Curtis was also
given the message, and issued state
ment saying that the policemen will
not be taken back
Commissioner Curtis directed that an
order he had issued previously in the
day be sent out. The order reads:
''Sept. y, 1919.
" All Division Captains:
In confirmation of the telephone
given you this informing at $50 clock
by Deputy Supt Kimball, | am sending
you this notice in writing: ea 'eSta
THAT none of the patrolmen who
failed to report for duty on Sept. o
1919, or since that time may return to
duty under any circumstances; nor are
they to be allowed to remain or loiter
on the premises of the different sta
ton houses.
"When officers report back from va
cation or sickness the division COM
manders will communicate at once in
each instance with the superintendent
for instructions. /
You are also instructed that no
open-air rallies or anything calculated
to draw crowd are to be permitted
until further orders'
