Substitute for Ifcich Oilier
The Misses Iluntie are so similar in
appearance that frequently Miss Ger

ment with one of the detectives for
her sitter, or the latter would sub
stitute for her. without the detectives
being any the wiser. ,

the shadowing of this agency. Major
Wynne, whosp men were called on the
rase, frequently had his ngent working
with the limine sisters to act as chauf

The plan, according to Mr. Dwyer,
Included getting such n bold on the twins
that thry would either through four or

"I tnmlo arrangements with youug
Mr, Hums nt the New York office ot
the agency," said Captain Campbell.-
"My only instructions were thnt the
agency should find out whether there
wns a conspiracy on tho part of the
draft board to 'frame' llergdoll.
"I gave the detective agency no In
structions to tamper with auy govern
ment witness, and 1 resent any imputa
tion that I hired detectives to do any
such thing.
"From conversations which I had
with Mrs. llergdoll and her son I felt
justified in seeking to find out whether
there was aiiy personal grudge being
served in the prosecution.
"Things that Ucrgdoll and his mother
had told me led m to feel that it was
my duty to investigate further. If what
the Ilergdolls said was true, I wanted to
know it; If It wus not true. I wanted to
know it equally. The detailed Informa

fidential." rttid 1 could not repent It for

Business Men Asked
to Boom City Port
Continued from t'ote Tine
the Heading Hallway. The latter road,
he added, refused to modify its oper
ating agreement nnd that no agreement
on joint operation could be reached.
"The only hope of the 'Kelt Line."
continued Mr. Turkcr, "Is to have nn
entirely neutral ownership and manage
ment, ns between the several railroads
entering the city, wlilcli can ouly be
done by some thorough reorganization
of that rond, or if possible, by city
ownership or control."
Illll Vetoed by Governor
An effort was made in the Legislatutc
in 11)17, he concluded, to effect such a
control. A bill passed the House nnd
Semite, lie said, but was vetoed by the
Governor.
"Ask Director Snroiile why the port
of Philadelphia is Icing out 1n port
business," said Captain Gntely. director
of the United States shipping board
here.
"A short time ago." said the cap
tain, "the director publicly criticized
the shipping board for the trouble, say
ins that there was a tremendous eon-
sestion of traffic here, and that it was
due to the gross Inefficiency of the
bonrd.
Good Ad for Port
"To my mind that statement was the
best advertisement for the port that
could have been given, it shows that
the business is coming here, despite
knockers.
"The steamship men here have been
doing their very best to boost the port,
especially during tho Inst fourteen to
sixteen months. The port uf Philadel
phia is iloiug COO per cent more busi
ness now than it ever, did in the two
to five years previous to this time."
Captain Gately said, however, that
iie could not voucli for the acthc inter
est of manufacturer; und business men
here in litis matter.
"W'Ipii they have the facilities here
for doing business the business men here
consistently ignore them," snid W. II.
Vivian., enernl agent of the Mallory
Line in tbl.i city.
"Through their neglect the Merchant
uud Miners Co. was forced to withdraw
u line sailing between this city and
Providence, while the Clyde Line had to
give up business after fifty years' ef
fort for the same reason.
"The thippers here are to blame if
there is a lack of coastwise facilities.
They look out solely for their own in
teiests. without any consideration for
the building up of a port business line.
Their course is penny wise uud pound
foolish. In times of plenty they ignore
the steamship lines and favor the rail
loads and then cry when the railroads
whom they have favored put them in a
hole from .imc to time with embargoes,"
Mr. Ilea's statement was made in a
letter to Charles S. Calwell, president
of the Corn Ihehungc National Hank,

New York; business men and manufac

handle and ship their goods.
Mr. Ilea says the charges against the
Pennsylvania system emnnate from two
misunderstandings. The first of these,
be says, is the belief that the routing of
the freight and the selection of its
destination lie In tho hands of the rail
roads, nnd the second the belief that
tho Pennsylvania railroad profits by the
longer haul to New York.
To correct tbe first of these misunder
standings, Mr. Hca says tho railroads
simply ship tho goods to the points to
which they arc consigned. Concerning
the second misunderstanding lie says
the additional charge which the rail
roads are allowed to make for tbe extra
haul to New York rlty does not com
pensate them for the extra 1(10 miles
they bnvc to move the merchandise.
What Philadelphia needs, says Mr.
Ilea, is not greater frontage on n tide

rnlliond facilities, but more traffic.

Some members of the delegation urged
the appointment of a civilian board to

putting the power In the hands of the

formed them, however, that Grnernl
Illnes had been entrusted wllli that

Under the so-called railroad reorgan

labor disputes Is required. The gov
ernment also retains n certain amount
of control over their bond issues, but
nt the same time insures a fixed per
centage of profit and makes it possible
for the corporations to secure loans
from n federal fund set nside for that
purpose.
Specifically, the bill authorizes the
President to settle all questions, in

Tho transfer of the Pennsylvania,

The Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
has resumed, as off this date, the operation of Its
property, and now, solicits, and will endeavor to
handle satisfactorily, business to and from all
points on or via its lines.
By virtue of Its geographical location. The
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, tapping as It does
the large industrial centers of the interior, and
connecting the principal cities of the Seaboard
with those of the Mississippi River and Great
Lakes, is logically in position to furnish satis
factory transportation service between the Eastern
Section and the Middle and Western States.
Regular freight schedules will be established
between New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington in the East, and Pittsburgh.Wheeling,
Columbus, Toledo, Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago,
Cincinnati, Louisville, St. Louis and other import
ant centers in the West, and special efforts will
be made to maintain regularity of service.
It will be the aim of Ths Baltimore and Ohio
Company in the future, as in the past, to satisfy
the reasonable requirements and desires of its
patrons, both freight and passenger, and it
solicits business solely upon that basis.

comotlves have been usod to the utmost,
nnd need thorough overhauling nnd re
pair. Tho supply of now freight cars
nnd locomotives has been far below nor
mal, nnd is behind tho needs of the
country. Theso faults will bo rem
edied." In view of theso great changes, which
were announced several weeks ago.
President Hen, of tho V. It. It., thought
it advisable to make n further state
ment to tho employes, commenting on
this nnd nlso upon tho return ot the
roads to private ownership. This state
ment says:
"Effective with the return o tbe rail
roads to their owners for opcrntlon on
March 1, the lines of the Pennsylvania
system liavo been divided into tour opcr
ntlnrr reelons to facilitate and encourage
closer and freer contact at all times with
the employes nnd the public.
"All efforts must be devoted to meet,
Ing the demnnds of the country, but,
ns n result of war conditions, nnd the
crisis through which the nution lias
passed, the property is returned to its
own management with its roadbed and
equipment below Its usual stnnuaru.
Further, our facilities hnve not kept
paco with tho growth of industry, and
until additional cars, locomotives,
trucks nnd terminals can be provided,
wc must utilize the present facilities
to tho fullest possible extent. For
some time, nnd for these reasons, the
service rendered cannot fully meet pub-
lie requirements. However, it is noped
that every one who requires transporta
tion of the Pennsylvania Hailroad bys
tern, either freight or pnsscngcr. will
see constant improvement. Our future
success depends upon our nbility to
command nnd rclalu the confidence and
co-operation of the public, which wc
can have only if wo fully meet nil our
obligations and conscientiously perform
our every dutj.
"For a long time mnuy of u (both
employes nnd officers) have justly felt
that our rcul problems were not appre
ciated nnd were not understood by the
public; but now we believe the Amer
ican people are thoroughly allvn to the
necessity for undcrstuudiug these prob
lems, nnd deciding upon n policy under
which they can bo bottled on a just
basis.
"In cur own organization, the long
ing for n return to the Pennsylvania
stnndnrd of work and service is appar
ent on every side. If each of us tho
275,000 men and women who rompriso
the personnel of the Pennsylvania Hall
road system will respond to this spirit
and work together as wo have iu tho
past, we shall succeed iu satisfying
the public and earning a fair return
for the mnny hundreds of thousands
of our ritizeus, and their Institutions,
who furnished the money to crtutc und
improve this great public transporta
tion system, and who have entrusted its
operation to us."
