H. c. STUART DECLINES
|. c. c. APPOINTMENT

Former Gov. Henry c. Stuart of Vir-
ginia has declined the appointment
by the President to the Interstate
Commerce Commission which was
| made public yesterday. The an
nouncement was made today by Rep
resentative r. Walton Moore of Vir-
ginia. who is a close friend of Gov
Stuart.
Representative Moore said the ap-
pointment was made without Mr.
Stuarts knowledge or any previous
intimation to him; that he has not
had the remotest idea of accepting
the appointment. and that in declin-
ing it he simply adheres to his pur-
pose which he expressed at the expira-
ton Of his term as governor not to re-
sumo additional official duties.
''The action Of the President. which
was entirely of his own notion" said
Representative Moore. indicated the
high esteem in which he holds Gov.
Stuart"
Representative Moore explained that
after the war began Gov Stuart, by
appointment of the President. served
as chairman of the agricultural ad-
visory committee. as a member of the
price fixing committee of the War In
dustries Board and as member of
the commission to inquire into the
production and distribution of meat
products and the relation of the pack
ers to that industry. He is now

VIRGINIA SENATE HEARS
OISAPPR0VAL OF BRYAN
Nr. Goolrick, in Opposing Equal
Suffrage, Declares in Favor
of Hoove,

RICHMOND, Va. February : tSpe-
cial).-It remained for the senate to
hear the first word of disapproval of
the policies of Col. William Jennings
Bryan, in a formal speech in that
body. When the equal suffrage ques-
tion was under consideration Thurs
day, Senator Goolrick Of Fredericks-
burg opposed that proposition-the
ratification of the amendment. He
said that were the matter submitted
to the people OF the state he would
vote for the women to have the ballot,
hut he was unalterably opposed to the
scheme Of liberalization of the rights
of the states, the invasion of the rec
ognized and established principle of
characterization. Taking up the
many policies advocated by Col. Bryan
the senator declared that the time had
come for the democrats of the coun-
try to throw aside this man and all of
him for President and let the party
go down to defeat with him for the
fourth time.
The senator then advocated the Sc
lection of a man like Hoover, who
stood for Americanism. and who stood
a reasonable chance of success.
This expression was given a round
and the immense crowd in the CALLER
les Senator Goolrick said, too, that
Attorney General Palmer had sent a
letter here asking that this amend
ment be accepted and supported by
the democrats. and he felt satisfied
that the letter had not gained him a
vote for the nomination and had made
no friends for him in Virginia. This
was the first declaration against
Bryan since his appearance in Wash
ington in January, and its reception
Was hearty and vigorous.

SECRETARY LANE QUITS
POST; EFFECTIVE MAR. |

ment Of the Interior has placed his
resignation in the hands of Presi-
dent Wilson. 1t became known
some time ago that the Secretary
when it was convenient for the
President to release him.
Secretary Lanes resignation is
effective March /.
President Wilson has accepted the
resignation and date fixed by Mr..
Lane. Discussion of a probable
successor today included the name
of Alexander T. Vogelsang of Cali
fornia, now first assistant secretary
of the interior.
1t is understood that Mr.. Lanes
plans for the immediate future
have not been fully matured, but
will be announced soon. He has
been Secretary of the Interior since
the beginning of President Will
sons administration. Prior to that
he was member and chairman of
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion.
Mr.. Lanes resignation terminates
ty years. in which he has held
many posts. beginning with local
6Itices in his home state of Cali
fornia. 1t has been a matter of
common agreement among politi-
cions for some time that he would
be a presidential possibility were it
not for the fact that he was born
in Canada.

! PARIS, February 7.-Delivery to the
! German government by the French
charge in Berlin of the list of Ger
mans whose extradition is demanded
by the allies is the proper course to
pursue in the existing circumstances,
| the council of ambassadors decided to-
day Its action was made known
through an official communique. which
read:
The council of ambassadors is
unanimously of the opinion that the
| list should be delivered to the German
government by the charge d'affaires of
France in the name of the allied pow
ers as soon as possible"
1t is understood that in the dis
cussion of the question today the am
bassadors took the view that the en-
i tire question is now up to Germany
should await action by the German
government.
The fact that the communique was
silent regarding the issuance of a
note was taken to mean that no note
| was considered necessary by the
council.
The issuance of the communique was
taken as an indication that there was
to be a restriction upon the sources
of information of the councils official
doings, and caused much indignation.
British AstOnish French.
Astonishment has been caused in
French circles by a change of attitude
on the part of the British government
regarding the extradtion of Germans
accused of violations of the laws of war
While it was understood that Great
Britain was the most insistent of all
powers represented at the peace confer
ence in demanding the trial of former
Emperor William and other prominent
Germans, information has been received
that the British are showing a tendency
to leave the initiative as to further
measures in the process Of extradition
to others.
1t was said yesterday that Premier
Lloyd George objected only to the form
of the covering note, but Baron Birken-
head, lord chancellor Of England. is un-
derstood to have made it clear that the
British government favored a radical
modification of the list in order that an
agreement with Germany might be
reached.
Premier Millerand declared in the
i chamber of deputies last evening the al
lies would not evacuate the left bank
of the Rhine until Germany had fulfilled
all the terms of the Versailles treaty.

The plan suggested would make

Cured 70 Frank Lyon Of tAiexandria
county. Virginia, with offices in the
District. Mr.. Lyon has discussed it
with representative Moore of .yir-
siniA ana other prominent residents
Of the section just across the Potomac.
Idea Presented to Col. kutz.
Spurred on by the belief that the
Key bridge now being constructed
across the Potomac near 35th street
should have an approach in keeping
with the beauty Of the structure, they
presented their idea to Engineer Com
missioner Kutx.
Commissioner Kutz has sketched out
a possible course for the proposed
boulevard, but he said today it should
be made clear that the engineer de-
partment has no thought of asking Con-
gress to carry 1t through at this time!
He is studying it, he said, merely as
possible f6ture development.
The main thought Of the men who
suggested the plan is that M street in
Georgetown is rapidly becoming in
adequate to handle the traffic between
the District and Virginia.
In the tentative plan the new road
way would run in a southeasterly
curve from the end of the Key bridge
at 35th and NJ streets. across the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal at point
near 3Sd street 1t would then go
through Grace street to Rock creek.
After crossing the creek it would con-
meet with Virginia avenue and follow
that broad thoroughfare to Potomac
Park and the heart of the city.
1t is pointed out that such a boule-
ward could use the bridge at K street
to cross Rock creek.
Link Between Parks.
A new thoroughfare through the
section suggested also would serve
as a link between Potomac Park and
the proposed parkways of lower
Rock Creek Park.
Mr. Lyon pointed out that the pro-
posed boulevard through Virginia
avenue would greatly relieve traffic
on NJ street and Pennsylvania avenue
west Of the Treasury. 1t also would
give the farmers of nearby Virginia
a direct route from the Key bridge to
the Center market. without follow
ing the car tracks on NJ street and
Pennsylvania avenue, he said.
Mr. Lyon believes that eventually
the Capital Traction Company should
extend its Georgetown tracks across
the Key bridge and have loop on
the Virginia side.

CQNFEREES REPORT
AGREED ON TERMS
Of RAILROAD BILL
Leaders Express Hope of
Enacting the Measure
Before March |.

A return of ~ per cent on the ag-
gregate value of the railroads would
be guaranteed by the government for
period of two years under an agree
ment reached today by the Senate and
House conferees on the railroad bill.
In announcing the agreement to-
day. Chairman Cummins Of the Senate
managers said the rewritten section
provided that after the two-year
period the percentage of return would
be fixed by the Interstate Commerce
ized to f1x rates so as to yield that
return.
Final Work of ConHerees.
With the agreement on this section
the conferees completed their work
on the BILL and Senator Cummfns
said their report probably would be
ready for Congress by February 16.
Leaders @ nope to complete final enact
ment OF the bill before the railroads
are returned to private control on
The aggregate value of the prop
critics used in transportation would
be determined by the Interstate Conn
merce Commission. according to the
bill. the determination being by traffic
districts. These districts would be
used as groups for rate making, and
in territories where the roads earned
an equivalent of the guaranteed re-
turn no increase in rates would be
necessary. Similarly. the rates would
be raised to make up a deficit in dis
tricts where the roads failed to earn the
5k per cent.
No Figures ON Aggregate Value.
Figures on the probable aggregate
value OF the roads are not available
yet. The commission has completed
the final physical valuation of only
three roads and the tentative vaIua-
tions of only fifty-six. the largest
being the Kansas City Southern. The
outstanding capitalization and bonded
indebtedness of all the roads amounts
to approximately $4,000. 0.O0O.O 900, on
which a 51s per cent return would
be $I,045.000, 900.
The guaranteed return to the roads
under government control has been
about s900.000.000 annually, based on
the three-year period just prior to
the time the government took charge
individual roads receiving varying re-
turns.
Distribution OF Earnings.
Distribution of earnings in excess of
the guaranteed return also is provid-
ed In the bill. One-haIf of / per cent
would be available for unproductive
Fifty per cent of the
excess over 6 per cent would go to
the roads earning such excess. while
the remaining half would be put into
a contingent fund administered by the
and used to purchase
equipment for rental to the weaker
roads. which also could obtain loans
from the fund.
