The reason Mrs. Dunn thinks her

man called at her home at 20 Cornelia
street, New York, said he was Patrick
and was trying to find his sister.
Mrs. Dunn was i'll in bed at the time.
The man remained in the hallway and
when friends of Mrs. Dunn asked the
caller to identify himself he evidently
became frightened and left. Mrs. Dunn
went out after him. but he had disap-
peared when she reached the sidewalk.

FEDERAL JUDGES
WANT NEW HOME
They Indorse Plan to Hand
Over Post Office Build
ing to City.

The plan to have the Government
abandon the old Post Office Building and
site in the Park Row Broadway triangle
so that the City Hall park may be ex.
tended was Endorsed yesterday by the
Judges of the Federal courts. which oc.
cupy the upper floors of the building
The Board of Estimate put the plan in
motion Friday by instructing its com.
mittee on court house to try to per-
suade the Treasury Department to re-
turn the site to the city in exchange for
a site on the city property north of the
Municipal Building.
At a meeting of the special committee
of Judges, presided over by Judge Henry
G. Ward. chairman, the following resolu-
ton was adopted: Resolved. that the
United States Judges strongly favor the
exchange of the present Federal Building
for site at Mulberry Bend upon which
a new building with adequate accommo-
dations. among other departments for
the great and constantly increasing busi-
ness OF the Federal courts and their
offices. may be erected"
The signers of the resolution in addi-
ton to Judge Ward were Judges Charles
NJ. Hough, Martin T. Manton, Learned
Hand and Julius Mayer.
The business of the Federal courts out
grew the old Post Office Building some
time ago and much Of the twelfth floor
of the Woolworth Building was taken
for chambers and offices OF Judges. The
bureau Of investigation of the Depart
ment Of Justice has Offices in the Park
Row Building.
The old Post ONCE Building. which
was built in the sos. has but five floors
available for business purposes. II was
built in the substantial fashion of its
day. with wide corridors and stairways
and high ceilings. 1t enclosed much
space that is put to no use.
1t is believed that Congress and the
Treasury Department will consent to
allow the building and site to revert
TO the city in exchange for a new site.
The only difficulty lies in the finding OF
place for the Post ONCE substation
that will be as suitable as the present
location on the first two floors OF the
building.

GOVERNOR-ELECT
FILLS TWO MORE
CABINET SEATS
Former State Senator Fisher
and Prof. Frederick Ras-
mussen Appointed

Philadelphia, Jan. 3.-Ex-St Sem
ator John s. Fisher, of Indiana. will
be tho next State Banking Commis-
sioner, to succeed Daniel A. Lafean,
of York, and Prof. Frederick Ras-
mussen. of Pennsylvania State Col
lego. will succeed Charles e. Patton
as Secretary--of of Agriculture. These
appointments were announced last
night by Governor-elect Sproul, who
said both had accepted.
Senator Fisher" Mr.. Sproul said,
"has had much experience along the
lines of trust company and banking
management and has given a great
deal of study to matters of the kind.
He was one of the leaders in the
Senate and was chairman of the COM
mittee which investigated the State
Capitol scandal and made the report
to Governor Stuart recommending
the prosecutions in the Capitol cases.
professor Rasmussen is a COM
paratively young man, who has ris-
en- rapidly in scientific. agricultural
circles. He has had much to do with
the agricultural activities of the
Committee of National Defense. He
accompany Government expeditions
to Europe to aid with the food prob
lens there.
professor Rasmussen had prac-
tical farming experience in Denmark
and in Iowa, where he resided in his
youth. He graduated from Iowa Col
lege in the agricultural course and
taught there for a time. afterward
going to New Hampshire, where he
was in charge of the state farm
work, coming from there to Penn
sylvania State College, where he has
been the professor of dairy hus-
bandry."
Professor Rasmussen won the
special comm endation of Howard
Heinz, the state food administrator,
to whom he was of great assistance,
and he has been requested several
times to accompany government eX-
peditions to Europe to aid with the
food problem there and to work out
plans for the rehabilitation of the
agricultural and dairy activities of
the devastated regions in France and
Belgium. He has been professor
at Pennsylvania. State College of
dairy husbandry, and has very sue
cessfully managed the large dairy
establishments of the college. Pro-
fessor Rasmussen has a complete
knowledge of the state and a very
large acquaintance among the n. e
progressive farmers.
"I consider Professor Rasmussen
a particularly able man, with tact,
force and industry, and l believe
that with the ideas he has in mind
he can be of great service to the
Department of Agriculture, said
Senator Sproul.
Banking officials have been anxi-
ously awaiting the announcement of
MIR. Sprouts selection for Banking
Commissioner. 1t was said last night
that undoubtedly the selection of ex-
Senator Fisher would be satisfactory
to the financial interests of the
state.
Senator Fisher" said Mr.. Sproul,
was one of the organizers and
principal directors of the Indiana
Trust Company, a very successful
institution, and he is in touch with
the financial institutions of the state.
Moreover, he has had great deal
of political experience and is very
widely known in the state, and has
been my close personal and politi-
cal friend for more than twenty
wears"

OF the commuters will suffer some
what of financial loss through the
fact that they will be obliged to
purchase tickets in February, only
a small fraction OF which they will
be able to use.
BY its order. the railroad admin
istration counteracts the ruling of
the Pennsylvania Public Service
Commission. from which appeal was
made the latter part of 1914 to settle
a controversy between commuters
and the railroad companies over IN
creases of passenger rates in the
suburbs. The commission fixed the
present status of the sixty-trip tick
cts as one of the, chief points in fa-
vor of commuters, while allowing
increases in fares.
Considerable mystery surrounds
the PRONUNCIATION of the order. 1t is
said that the instructions came from
q special committee of the admins
tration at Washington that was ap-
pointed to standardiZe forms Of rail-
road tickets all over the country.
The ruling means that commuters
will have to get their tickets the first
of the month, and that no tickets OF
that type can be bought in the mid
die of the month. AS it now stands,
d thhy puiSheloO % oANsy
trip ticket, for example, on the tenth
day of the month and use that ticket
until the tenth of the following
month. The present ruling proviSes
for no refund if any rides are re-
naming. In the opinion of COM
muters, the chief advantage of the
lowered Communication rate is lost
by the new order. The fare advan-
tage is lost when the commuter pur-
chases his ticket few days after the
first Of the month.
Officials asserted that the special
making the ruling was
doing it to make uniform the issu-
ance of Communication tickets all
over the country. 1t was pointed out
that this territory is the only re-
gion in the United States where
tickets are not figured
on the calendar month basis.
