COMMISSION FAVORS IDEA Interstate Body Believes Congress Should Have Power to Enact Legis- lation Looking to Greater Safety for the Traveling Public. Chicago, Sept. 9.—According to a special dispatch from Washington federal regulation of the physical op- eration of railroads will be advocated by the interstate commerce commis- Jjust concluded in the latest disastrous wreck on the New Haven railroad. Thus another forward step in gov- ‘ernment control of interstate trans- portation will be expected in the near ‘future. From what was said by mem- i bers of the two interstate commerce |- committees of congress there exists . & purpose on the part of the lawmak- ers to stop the waste of life conse- quent upon the present ineffective methods pursued in train running on many roads. The means essential to the provision of greater safety for the traveling public, as the interstate commerce | commission will point out, will in- clude the adoption of the most ef- ficient type of automatic signal sys- tem, the immediate substitution of steel for wooden cars, regulation of the speed of trains, either wher on or behind time, and other details of management. McChord Inspires Safety. Commissioner McChord, who made the New Haven investigation, and who will write the report, has had special charge of the investigation of rail ac- cidents. As a result of Mr. McChord’s endeavors “safety first” clubs have been organized among the officials and employes of nearly all the big rail- road systems. Commissioner McChord was asked for his views on the evils of making up lost time. He was loath to discuss the subject in advance ot the report of the commission on the| New Haven wreck. “Of course,” he said, “the regulation of the speed of trains is a question to which all students of railroad prob- lems have given much thought for many years. It is not a new problam by any means. ““That the reckléss running of trains ought to be prevented goes without saying. The practice of mak- ing up lost time is common an Ameri- can railroads, although it long hag been recognized as ome of the most dangerous aspects of railroad opera- tion.” LETTER ACCUSES PHYSICIAN This and Pillow Slip Only Clues in Mysterious Murder. New York, Sept. 9.—An embroider- ed letter “A” begun with a flourish and finished with uncertain hand gave detectives their first tangible clue in New York’s latest murder mystery, the body of whose victim, a girl in the twenties, has been surrendered in two pieces by the Hudson river. Through this hand worked letter, which adorned the corner of the stained pillow slip containing the lower part of the body, detectives hope to establish the young woman’s identity, although her head, arms and legs have not beed found. A rambling letter sent unsigned to the Hoboken morgue, where the body is lying, is also being investigated. In this letter the writer bewails the dis- appearance of “Ella” and names an Photo by American Press Association.

Chicago, Sept. 9.—Left to guard his infant brother, Harry Klosky, five years old, gave the crying child something out of a bottle to make it quiet, just as he had seen his mother do. The baby fell into a sleep from which it never awoke.

THEOLOGY RECGRUITS SOUGHT New York. Clergyman Will Preparatory School. Open New York, Sept. 9.—A night prepar- |. atory school in theology, open to young men of every denomination, will be started shortly in this city by Rev. Dr. John Rogers Gunn, pastor of the North Baptist church. Dr. Gunn believes the field for such a school is a wide one. Several of the young men in his church have de- cided to take a course in theology and some from other churches have expressed a2 desire to join the school. ke says. Dr. Gunn’s idea is that at present the largest proportion of the minigtry is obtained from the small towns and that if given the opportunity the city will furnish its quota of youth anxious to embrace the ministry.
