Mr. Stellwagen said today: “There will be no one interfering with the golf course until I get ready to sell it and I am not ready just yet. I am going to let the ocourse stay there. ‘These men who play there have been there for & long while and I am not golng to interfere.” If the plan of the Recreation Club were carried out, Mr. Bisselle declared that the entrance to the golf club ‘would be swept away and the geventh and -eighth holes would be.cut.off. Important freight traffic as well as passenger traffic will be rerouted out of Richmond, over the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac tracks to Doswell, Va., where the tracks of the Chesapeake and Ohio cross those of the former road: The Chesapeake and Ohio will take the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac traffic from this point, which is twenty-four miles. outside Richmond, via Gordons- ville, Va., to Orange, Va. at which junction, the Southern railroad will e reliéd upon to bring trains into Seminary, Va., where again the Rich- mond, ¥redericksbus and_ Potomac tracks will take up the traffic. Semi- _{nary is-just below Alexandria. Repair Work Starts. This is why the time loss will oc- cur. The Southern and the Chesa- peake and Ohlo. naturally on their own tracks demand the right of way for their scheduled -trafic, and the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Po- tomac, the Atlantic Coast Line and Seaboard Air Line will be forced to sandwich their trains in. the bridge today, reinforced by scores of skilled and unskilled labor. A plan is being ‘worked out for the transfer of passengers from one side of the bridge to another, but difficulty is expected to be encountered in ma- terializing this project, because of the width of the marshland and the creek. Of course, trains can be run over the tracks to each end of the burned structure, but transporta- tion of passengers from -one side to the other, according to.

A few minutes earlier Mr. Doyle had said he did not “think” the defendants would return to their picketing, al- though he refused to make that state- ment a promise when the comn ‘ssioner pressed him to do so. Several times during the trial Commissioner Mac- Donald halted the proceedings to warn those in the courtroom to refrain from a repetition would require stern meas- ures. After the trial Mrs. MacSwiney showed no_surprise at the result. It was what she expected. She did express deep concern over the reports from abroad, however, that the home in which*she left her Infant daughter in Ireland has been searched by Free State troops. Mrs. MacSwiney also declared Miss MacSwiney could not much longer survive her hunger strike. | | corege. __ ~©~ o $9,000,000 AND 200 MEN SOUGHT BY DRY CHIEF Haynes Outlines Needs Before House Subcommittee—Quarter Million Under This Year’s Sum. { JANITOR THEFT SUSPECT. $1,250 Missing, $1,230 Found in Ash Can at Home of Accused.

The company sevéral weeks ago took the initiative by offering to re- duce the rate for unlimited service from $5.50 to $5 a month. The com- mission, however, is sald to be con- sidering whether the cut should ap- ply only to the unlimited rate or be spread over the several classes of service. At the hearing_ the company, it is expected, will endeavor to show that the wisest course would be to make a substantial reduction in-the highest rate, namely, the unlimited, than to distribute the cut over the entire schedule.
