SENATOR FLETCHER
HIT BY TROLLEY;
SERIOUSLY INJURED

Washington, Aug. 22.-Senator
Fletcher of Florida was strunk by a
car yesteday and seriously injured.
He sustained severe scalp wound a
confusion and a badly bruised arm.
The Florida senator was on his way
home from the capitol and as he
alighted from a street car near his
residence. he was struck by another
car coming from anopposite direc-
ton.
Ait the Fletcher home last night il
was said that the senator's injuries,
while quite severe, were not regarded
as serious, although his exact condi'
ton could not be ascertained until a
more complete examination Of the
scalp wound and the confusion was
possible. The senator is sixty years
Of age.
The physicians attending the SEN
ator late last night said examination
had established that Mr.. Fletcher
suffered concussion of the brain but
that his chances for recovery were
good. His wife and two daughters
we're summoned to Washington.
The senator's view of the ap-
preaching street car, it was said, was
obscured by an umbrella which ne
was carrying. Upon regaining con-
seriousness an hour later Mr.. Fletch'
er said the motorrnan of the street
car should not be held 10 blame, as
the accident happened through his
own negligence.

GERMANS PREFERRING
TO LEAVE 'FATHERLAND"

Berlin, Aug. 22.-It is expected that
several million Germans will attempt,
las soon as passes are available, to
leave Germany and secure more lu-
|crative employment abroad.
The newly organized Imperial Mi
grafton Bureau denies that German
commission in the Argentine is at
tempting to arrange for the accept
ance of 5000 900 Germans, which Is
vastly more than the South American
country could suddenly assimilate,
but says that delegates OF the new
bureau will shortly go to the Argen-
tine to protect such Germans as do
arrive there from being robbed and
deceived.
The bureau says the Argentine Is
friendly to Germans and offers good
chances for skilled labor as carpen-
ters, watchmakers, mechanics and
printers.
The Argentine Consulate General
says that Commission has been sent
to the Argentine which will buy land
for the emigrants and institute farms
and schools. ell declares that the
Argentine government is willing to
welcome large colonies of Germans
but demands they should accept Ar
gentine citizenship so that there VIII
be no danger of creating a state with

tories of Chaco Misiones, Chubut and

two hundred hectars will be given

to be sold, and cattle and machinery
will be advanced on credit.

the rate at which the government can
borrow. He pointed out that the war
had added 500, 900, 100000 to the pub
lie debt in two years and that the
annual interest charge alone is now
almost equal to the whole annual ex.
pense of the national government be-
fore the war. ITO buy the railroads
and double the national debt would
be exceedingly unwise,p said Mr.. Her
rick. "It would simply multiply the
principal and interest which the peo-
pie must pay.
Uncertainty in business will not
cease until the railroad problem is
solved" asserted Mr. Herrick. "Ev-
cry delay means tremendous loss to
the country. All the billions Of
wealth. owned by the people Of the
United States are to go forward or
backward, dependent upon the legisla-
tion which is just ahead. A mistake
will threaten the whole financial
structure.
Mr.. Herrick said that he believed
the best plan yet presented for solv-
ing the railroad question was that
presented to Congress by the Nation.
al Association of Owners of Railroad
Securities. This plan, he said, pro-
vides for a fixed percentage return to
the roads and that where a road
makes profit In excess of 6 per cent.
the excess shall be divided between
the government, the employees and
the railroad. In his opinion this plan
protected all interests-the public,
the shippers, employees, and owners.
"The time for experiments has
passed" said Mr.. Herriek. "The gov.
ernment has followed fads and fan
cies far enough. Now let us forget
partisan and politics and devise
practical plan for the business-like
management of our great vehicles Of
commerce giving men of experience
and vision a chance to exercise their
abilities. Radical experimentation is
unthinkable."

ARGUES AGAINST PLAN
OF HANDLING RAILROADS

Cleveland, O., Aug. 22.-Myron T.
Herrick Of this city. member of The
Executive Committee of the National
Association of Owpers OF Railroad
Securities, declared in statement
today that the turning over Of the
vast system of railroad lines to the
control of the government, and
through the government to the con-
troll of organized labor, would be a
long step toward the establishment in
this country Of an autocratic power
that would imperil the liberties of
the American people,"
Mr.. Herrick, who was formerly
governor of Ohio and American am
bassador to France, Is banker, di.
rector of the Erie Railroad and of the
New York Life Insurance Company.
Mr.. Herrick asserted in his state
ment that "the experience Of the last
two years with the railroads, as with
the telegraph and telephone lines is
ample proof that there Is neither ef-
ficiency nor economy In government
control. He said that such control
and operation would defeat the pur-
pose for which the railroad brother.
hoods were established and that 1t
would involve huge addition to the
public debt as the value of the rail.
roads was estimated at $17,0O0,.
100000.
Referring to the agitation by rail
road employees through the officers
Of their organizations In favor of gov
ernment ownership of the roads, Mr..
Herrick said:
"This propaganda will not be fav.
orably received by the, people of this
country who, as always, must pay the
bill. The deficit incurred in less than
two years of federal operation is al.
ready more than $5O0,000, 900 and Is
mounting at the rate of 5000 q
day in spite of sharp increases In
freight and passenger rates. Direct
ly or indirectly, in taxes, freight
charges and increase in the cost OF
goods the burden of that deficit falls
on the people and contributes in
tremendous measure to the oppres
sively high cost of living. In the face
of that showing who could conscien.
