Solution of Mystery in Taxicab Driver Murder Is Expected Within 24 Hours. Police predicted this morning that the mystericus murder of William H. Jones, taxicab driver, who was shot and fatally wounded the night of January 14, as he was driving on Twenty-fifth street between N and M streets, will be solved within 24 hours, basing their | prophecy on information obtained dur- | ing an all-night investigation. While maintaining an attitude of | secrecy regarding the clues which were | uncovered last night, men detailed to the case stzted that they were of a nature which would seem to point to the early and correct solution of the murder mystery. It was disclosed also that the search for the driver’s assailant is bosed now on but one theors—that the murder was | committed by a bandit who either | attempted to hold up the driver or! became angered with him in a dispute over the fare.

After hearing from advocates of all proposed sites, the park and playground subcommittee of the House District committee today will begin deliberating on where to locate the Farmers' Market permanently and how soon the site should be bought. The final hearing last night saw ad- vocacy of a new site on Georgia avenue, opposite Griffith Stadium. Vincent L. Toomey, spokesman for the Georgia venue supporters, based "his case on the accessibility of that neighborhood to the buying public. During the past 10 days the subcom- | mittee has taken volumes of testimony |in favor of placing the farmers' sheds |'n the Southwest, near the waterfront: | in_midcity, near Fifth and K streets; | m Eckington, somewhere in the vicinity | of Florida and New York avenues, and ! at Buzzard Point. between the War Col- |lege and the Navy Yard. Suggests Two Markets. ‘William B. Hudson, engaged as a con- ulting engineer by the National Capi- | «al Park.and Planning Commission, last night told the subcommittee that with »ospects of a growing population Wash- ngton could well consider having two irmers’ Markets, one on each side of » Mall. . Cary H. Brown, executive assis- | | tant to the planning commissjon, sum- | marized the studles made by that | agency last year, as the result of which | the commission recommended that the | | three sites under consideration at that | time be considered in the following | order: Eckington, west of the railroad: | Southwest, and mid-city. Maj. Brown | testified that the findings of the park commission were before the District | Commissioners when they drafted their | report to Congress last month, so that there was nothing new in his testimony. The District Commissioners came 10| the conclusion that the farmers should be provided for in some temporary way. so that the city could delay buying a permanent site until it becomes known | where the commission merchants plan | | to establish themselves. The city heads took the view that if Congress prefers | to move the farmers immediately to a ! permanent site, the Commissioners re- | | commend Southwest. Fourth of Population. Mr. Toomey, speaking for business men in the vicinity of the base ball | park, urged a site on the west side of Georgia avenue, over to Eighth street, and extending north from a proposed new street sbout to be cut through. Mr. Toomey said the market area should be extended north to Barry place if necessary. Disputing the contention that mar- kets should be near a railroad terminal, Mr. Toomey declared that “if they are dependent on railroads it is a funny thing that up to this day the market has prospered away from the railroads. Until the Government needed the land no one suggested moving the market to a railroad. Mr. Toomey said more street car lines converge near the Georgia avenue site | than anywhere in Washington, with the possible exception of Fifteenth street |and New York avenue. In the 1927 po- lice census, he continued, it was found {that 25 per cent of the population of Washington lives within eight blocks of Fourteenth street and Park road. Can Handle Crowds. Fifty per cent of the farmers drive out Georgla avenue, Mr. Toomey said. He testified that 75 per cent of the seafood | supply of Washington is brought in by truck or rail. ‘To show the subcommittee that large crowds and heavy traffic could be han- dled expeditiously at the proposed loc: tion, Mr. Toomey declared that when Washington won the base ball world series several years ago there were 40,000 persons at Griffith Stadium and thousands of automoblles in the vicinit, The entire crowd, he sald, was cleared from that neighborhood in 35 or 40 minutes, Mrs. C. Albert White, speaking for the women'’s federated clubs of the city, {Im‘ornd the mid-city site, telling the {committee it would not be possible for | women to go to a market placed at any extreme point. Chairman Gibson of the subcommit- tee asked Maj. Brown if a market on | the Southwest site would interfere with ! the Park Commission plans for a boule- | vard along Water street. Maj. Brown | sald that a market on the north side of Water street would not interfere with | those plans. Speaks for Southwest. Mr. Hudson sald that the sites north and south of the Mall each had distinc- tive, desirabic point: but that no one site has all the desired attributes. In some ways, he sald, the Southwest fs ideal. He added that it was unfortu- nate “you lack there the people to buy the farmers’ produce.” Col. Wrisley Brown, spokesman for the Southwest site, took issue with Mr. Hudson, emphasizing that the bulk ‘armers’ Market business 1s whole and that the wholesale bu; would find it convenlent to go to the Southwest site.

S. Con- flict “Amazing.” By the Associated Press, LONDON, January 24.—The London press regards as an “amazing indiscre- tion” the speech of Rear Admiral Charles P. Plunkett in New York, when the officer is reported to have forecast a war between the United States and Great Britain. Most of the morning papers play up the speech in big head- lines with the comments and criticisms of Senator Borah and a few prominent British officials, as well as Admiral Plunkett's reported denial that he was correctly quoted. All papers except the Laborite Herald, however, refrain from editorial com- ment. The Herald says the first impulse upon reading the report is to shrug one's shoulders but it recalls similar speeches In London and Berlin before the great war. It asserts that un- doubtedly “a spirit of antagonism is growing between the ruling classes of Great Britain and the United States, while there is a conflict of interests of American and British capital.” ‘The Herald urges that “Admiral Plunkett’s outburst should serve as a warning to sane persons to eliminate the possibilities of a quarrel and insure that any disputes between the two countries may be settled by other means than mutual sulcide.” Lord Sydeham, former secretary of | the committee for imperial defense, fs | quoted in the Express as saying that he entirely disbelipves that any responsible statesman in America can share Ad- | miral Plunkett’s unworthy _suspicion. | The same paper quotes Admiral Sir George King-Hall as saying that Ad-| miral Plunkett does not know what he s lulk“m‘( azm’xt and that there is no| reason to anticipate war betwee; - ica and Great Britain.
