his discharge, was found guilty of
disorderly conduct by Judge George
H. Macdonald in Police Court to-
day.
The veterans personal bond was
taken, but an appeal for a new
trial was noted by his attorney,
Abner Siegal.
The trial developed into heated
discussion as to whether Mayors
was properly notified of his dis
charge from the hospital before he
objected to leaving and had to be
carried out.
Mayors testified he was in bad
physical condition with impaired
vision. fostering surgical incision
in his stomach, and his nerves COM

PROTESTSCOPS'
ARRESTS

The burning of cross in the
heart OF Hyattsville, the sounding
OF q fire alarm to extinguish It,
and the gathering of a large crowd
of residents and motorists followed
the arrest in the Maryland town
last night of Policemen Guy Robey
and Bernard Rowe of States At

who were charged with assault and
battery by George Walsh OF Hy-
attsville.
Reported Backed by Klansrnen
The burning of the cross was de-
cIared by some Hyattsville citizens
to be signal of protest by the
Ku Kiux Khan against the arrest
of the policemen, who have been
making number of raids in Prince

DELAYS
RAIL MERGER

Merger proceedings are now be-
ing held UP pending the decision
from the Court of Appeals on the
valuation of the Capital Traction
Company. it was indicated at the
District Building today.
1t is the opinion of Commissioner
Cuno H. Rudolph that the Commits
sion cannot expect to enter negotia-
tons with the railway companies
until this decision is rendered. He
claims that the basis for a con-
crete plan of combining the .wo
street car companies must first be
laid by finding the financial stand
ing of the Washington Railway and
Electric and Capital Traction COM
panies.
Although some agree with Com
missioner Rudolph others interested
in the merger hold that it is not
necessary to wait for this decision.
In the opinion of several officials, it
is well-known under just what ar
rangements the two companies
would agree to combine
Members of the Utilities Commits
sion, however, admit that they ire
not as fully conversant with the
meaning of the demands of the
companies as they might be, which
explains the hesitancy of other Of
ficials to offer a tentative plan.
When a conference, 1.-The subject
of which was not for publication, -
was held Monday those in attend
ance would not throw any light
on the proceedings, but it is under
stood that representatives of the
railway company laid down ex-
traordinary laws under which they
would consider combining with the
Capital Traction Company.
Such extravagant desires were
expected, however, it was indicated,
and were dealt with accordingly.
1t is understood that the hour
consumed by the conference was
considered Just so much time
wasted"
