New-York tribune., 1921-02-17

a subcommittee appointed by the or
ganization's executive committee to
frame report on the Governors pro-
posals, said yesterday that the report
probably would not be made public
until after copies of the bills intro
duced at Albany are thoroughly
analyzed.
MIR. Kracke said he agreed with Mr..
Livingston, that q commission, when
appointed, should not as it's first act in
crease fares, but he added that this
position should not be construed as ia
Vorlng or opposing increased fares ulti-
mately, If that should be found neces-
sary.
Mr.. Livingston and are in accord,
believe, in our confidence that the
Governor will appoint commissioners
qualified to deal with the local traction
problem without undue delay" said Mr.
hracke. Our understanding is that
the commission will investigate the
situation before it acts on fares or any
thing else"
The American Electric Railway AS
sociation, West Fortieth Street, an
nounced yesterday that a referendum
showed that civic and commercial or
carnations throughout the country
tavor "a comprehensive programme
looking to the improvement of the
country,s street railways" Ninety-three
New York organizations voted. Some of
the principles voted for were that pri-
vate ownership and operation should
be preserved, that provision should be
maze against the consequences of un-
fair competition, and that all burdens
unrelated to service should be removed
from street railways.

Livingston May Oppose
Part of Miller Car Plan

Jacob A, Livingston, Republican II
leader of Brooklyn, indicated yesterday
that che Kings County Republican or
ganization will not support Governor
Miller's traction proposals in their en-
tirety. Although Mr.. Livingston in an
interview some time ago expressed his
approval of the Governors plans in
general, he has taken the position that
one feature of the plan, only recently
developed, might meet with objection.
Doubt, he said, has arisen over the
Governors explanation that the trac-
tion bills would give the commission
authority to change fares as tempo
rary relief and without a public hear
ing. This feature of the proposed
measure was amplifed by the Governor
in an interview published yesterday in
The Tribune.
The Governor was asked: "Under
the provisions of the bill, could the
commissi toner's, Immediately on being
appointed, raise any rates Of fares, if
they so minded, without giving public
hearing?"
His answer was: "Yes. But who ever
Mr. Livingston declared that he was
GggPfqGSed5 1T to 5hJ ths featursf s5ff COMMISSION
doing any such thing"
"What will be done about ?" he
was asked.
Eve probably will indicate our dis
approval and suggest modification or
elimination. This may be done when
it comes up for discussion on the floor
Of the Legislature. Who will speak for
the Kings County organization in re-
gard 20 it, however, | cannot say now"

sembly tonight issued the following
statement:
"The Governors utility bill intro
duced to-day, is brazen attempt to
override guaranty Of fixed utility rates
and fares througout the state. The up
state cities are affected by the pro-
visions in regard to streetcar fran
ehises. and the municipalities which
have a fixed rate on gas and electric
rover are also affected.
FIXED charges, rates and fares were
set by the various utility companies in
return for valuable concessions on the
part of municipalities. Under Gov
ernor Miller's plan these charges, rates
and agreements may be abrogated and
increased, while the public utilities
companies apparently have all the con-
cessions granted at the time of the
original agreement"

Shoots Divine Who Married
His Daughter to Catholic.
Claims Self-Defense.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Aug. 12.-
The Rev. Edwin Il. Stephenson,
itinerant Methodist minister, was
held in Jail here today on charges
of murder. following the fatal
shooting last night OF the Rev
James z. Coyle. dean OF the Cath
Ollie Church in North. Alabama and
pastor of St Pauls Church in BIr-
mingham.
Mr.. Stephenson. in a statement
made following his arrest, made it
apparent that he will claim self de
fense. -
Father Coyle was shot to death
as he sat on the front porch Of the
parish house. The minister sur
rendered Immediately. Father Coyle
died an hour later.
Grief over the fact that his
daughter had married a Catholic,
the ceremony having been per-
formed yesterday by Father Coyle,
was the cause of the shooting, po-
lice said today. -t
Mr. Stephenson. according to
statements made both by himself
and his wife, had bitterly opposed
the desire of his 1S-year-old daugh-
ter to join the Catholic Church. Yes
terday evening, Mrs. Stephenson
said. while hse and her husband
were hunting their daughter, who
had not returned home from work,
they received a message that she
had married Pedro Gussman, a
Porto Rican and a Catholic.
Stephenson told police that he was
walking past the parish house and
saw Father Coyle sitting on the
porch.
He called to me and asked me
to sit down." he continued. I'VE
started to talk about my daughters
marriage"
A bitter argument apparently fol-
lowed and Mr.. Stephenson declared
Il called him a dirty dog, or words
to that effect. He told me not to
make the remark. Then 1 said he
was a dirty dog again. and he strutk
inc twice. He ran his hand into his
pocket and then shot"
