garage, a Hudson, was found in the mud
two or three miles north of the city where
it was abandoned. 1t is supposed the
men took this car first and finding they

BOSTON AND MAINE
DEFIES n. III. LAW
Governor Asked to Secure Supreme
Court Opinion ON Recent Day
light Legislation.

CONCORD, y. H, April I9-At a
meeting in the executive council cham
Der in the state house yesterday +. T
Grant, general passenger agent OF the
Boston 4 Maine railroad was asked by
Gov. Albert O. Brown, Attorney Gen
Oscar L. Young and Public Service Com
missiOners Gunnison. Northen and
Storrs why he had disregarded, in max
ing up the new summer schedule OF
trains running over his road in New
Hampshire, the law passed by the recent
state legislature fOrbidding the chang
ing of trains because OF daylight, say
ing in Massachusetts and New ork.
Mr. Grant said he had proceeded on
the basis of the greatest good TO the
greatest number and that he believed
a majority of the people of New Hamp
shire would be satisfied with the new
schedule.
Governor Brown suggested that if the
train now leaving Concord at 9.43 a. III
for Boston could remain on its present
running time, this making connections
with three trains from the North and
West, - per cent of the objections
would be overcome, but Mr.. Grant said
this would necessitate running another
train at S.43, and the railroad could not
afford to do it.
Representatives of the State Grange
of the federation of farm bureaus. the
state board of education and of the
postal service were present to protest
against conditions under the proposed
new schedule.
No likelihood of any change i'm the at
titude of the railroad was held out by
Mr.. Grant, and the public service com
missioners suggested that the governor
and council secure from the supreme
court an opinion as to the constitution
atty of the recent legislation before
any legal proceedings are begun under it

A Congressional investigation Of

mediately after the arms conference
adjourns. Chairman Porter of. the
House Foreign Affairs Committee
Announced today.
Mr.. Porter, who also is chairman
on Pacific and Far Eastern ques-
tons, said that information re-
ceived by his committee proves con-
clusively that a sweeping investiga-
ton is necessary.
The advisory committee of which
Mr.. Porter ia chairman made a
thorough study of the drug traffic
in it's investigation of Far Eastern
problems, and recommended to the
arms conference that the foreign
postoffices in China be abolished as
the first step to end the traffic.
The records of the committee show
that the traffic has been conducted
through the foreign postoffices, prin-
cipally the Japanese.
The decision to close the foreign
postoffices is the biggest step yet
made toward doing away altogether
with the traffic in drugs" said Mr..
Porter.
Congressman Julius Kahn Of Cali

pending before the House Foreign
Affairs Committee calling for an
