Brenaman of Moscow died shortly afterward on the porch of the county jail here, where policemen had ‘taken him, thinking at the time that he had been drinking.

Mr. Brenaman was about sixty- five years of age and leaves one sis- ter and three brothers. His funeral owned system appeared certain today, following fssuance by the state transit commission of Its initial re- port on plans for a readjustment of transit management. The commission, it was pointed out. is vested with authority by the state legislature to put its decisions into effect, despite opposition from the companies involved or the ity ad- ministration. Only g repeal of the law or its upset in the courts, it was declared, can block their plans. Little opposition is expected from the com- way and elevated lines in Manhattan and the Bronx; one the surface lines in Manhattan and the Bronx, and one the subway, elevated and surface lines in Brooklyn.
