House’s mission, which he says ‘“‘seems to be character- istic of President Wilson' spirit of hesitation,” writes: “Europe has sud- denly seen a dumb missionary disem- | bark on its shores for a tour of in- spection among the combatants. He | has p: ed everywhere, appearing and disappearing by turns like the flying Dutchman in the mists of the horizon. He has said nothing, his whole mis- sion evidently being to observe. His task, I suppose, is to report faith- fully to the President, the conclusions he draws from personal observation as to the balance of force between the belligerents. “I know nothing about Col. House,” concludes M. Clemenceau, “but the fact that he has been chosen for this investigation by the first magistrate of the American Republic leads me to infer thHat he has at least the qualities of observation and good sense. This is enough to satisfy me as to the re- sults of his investigation. 30 ON TRIAL FOR DEATH OF HER SON’S WIFE Reputed Wealthy Pioneer of Towa Charged With Complicity in Mur- der of Daughter-in-Law.

PRESIDENT TO PUSH LEGISLATIVE WORK Wilson Anxious That Action Be On the Army and Navy Bills. Washington, Feb. 7.—The adminis- tration’s legislative program, particu- larly national preparedness, and the Lusitania case, gave promise today of occupying much of President Wilson’s attention during the week. The President has engagements to confer with many senators and repre- sentatives in furtherance of his efforts to expedite the work of congress on the army and navy bil He is anx- ious that these measures be disposed of as soon as possible so that other legislation may be taken up includ- ing the shipping bill, the tariff com- mission bill and revenue legislation. ‘Whether the President will make another speech-making tour in the in- terest of preparedness hinges upon the outcome of his conferences with congressional leaders as well as the Lusitania affair. While the President has been advised that he madé a deep impression on his recent trip, he has not yet learned whether it had a definite effect on congress. The Philippine bill, already passed by the senate, was up for discussion at a conference today between the President and Chairman Jones of the insular committee. It is said e to amend the bill. The measure i said to have met the President’s ap- proval as it passed the senate. NIGHTERS sm Over Initial Performances At the Lyceum. “FIRS' * TONIGHT.

NEW HAVEN ROAD TO TRIM INDEBTEDNESS President Elliott Says Resources Will Be Used 2 Much As Possible . for That Purpose. Boston, Feb. 7.—The indebtedness of the New Ycrk, New Haven and Hartford railroad company, maturing May 1, to be reduced as much as possible from the resources of the company and the remainder renewed upon the best terms obtainable, ac- cording to a statement of the action of the special finance committee of the directors made public yesterday by President Howard Elliott. The in- debtedness consists of $27,000,000 one-year five per cent, notes. Pr dent Elliott says that as the re of the Mai public service commission r to in- vestigate the road’s financial affairs is expected in the latter part of Feb- ruary, “it seems unwise at present to attempt to make a mortgage and issue bonds to take up the notes.” ‘It is hoped the statement “that the report will contain recom- mendatlons that will-enable the leg- islature to take any action necessary to remove any doubts as to the legal status in Massachusetts of invest- ments of the company made by and under lawful authority of other states. The committee, continues the statement, also considered the advi ability of recommending an increase in the capital of the company by an issue of the preferred stock, but ‘concluded that it is not best to ask the stockholders for action on any such plan prior to May 1, although they feel that the stockholders should give to this method of raising money their careful consideration so that debts may be paid and needed improvements be made promptly. No smount of new stock has ever been determined upon and the report that $75.000,000 or any other amount was to be raised was without foun- dation.” The statement says that the total debts paid and new money put into the property in the last two ana one half years, was $12,056,716 nd that during the next few years much more than this sum should be spent for additions to the property.
