CHINESE RAILROAD P a DEBATED. WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.—(By The Associated Press)—Advices from Riga that soviet Russia has protested the discussion of the Chinese Eastern railway by th® Washington confer- ence has served to draw the atten- ton of conference circles to the rather complicated nature 2f this subject, which occupies a place on the Amer- ican agenda. The Chinese Eastern is of the greatest strategic and economic im- Portance tq Russia, Japan and China. It is the great connectirg link across China of the trans-Siberian railroad from Vladivostok to far away Moscow and Petrograd.

Phillips, the lat. | ter the driver of the motorcycle, were net seriously injured. The extent of their injuries consist mainly of minor scratches and bruises. Mrs. D. W. Lobdell, wife of D. W. Lobdell, assistant industrial relations director of the Standard company, was riding in the Dodge car which Taylor was driving. She had driven her husband to the Burlington depot preparatory to his leaving for Greybull this morning on company business. As she drove back up town she was hailed by Mr. Taylor, a‘friend of the family, and requested to drive him to work. Mrs. Lobdell asked him to drive the car because of the heavy early morn- ing traffic in the vicinity of the re- figeries. It was because pf this re- quest that Taylor was driving at the time of the accident. The crash which resulted in the death of Hurley occurred just about 100 yards east of the intersection of the Standard and Midwest plants, and within a few feet of the point where Taylor would have taken up his duties. Immediately after the accident T: lor left the automobile and informed Mrs. Lobdell, who was nearly over- come as a result of the mishap, to drive away from the grewsome scene. It was because of this fact that the report spread that a woman’ was S| ing the car which featured in the ac- cident. Investigations of the accident are under way today by county and ci; investigation forces. Arrangements are also being made by Coroner Lew M. Gay for an thquest to bring out all evidence of the accident. It is understood that there were no actual eyewitnesses to the accident except the principals of the accident.
