Letter* of l*rote»t. George H. Eakle of 110.S Kast Cap- ; itol street has protested againts run- nine" the Lincoln Park cars by way of the courthouse and Capitol instead of past t'nion station, as at present. "1 think, with many others." wrote Mr. Eakle. "that you are doing an injustice to the northeast section by cutting the Lincoln Park tars out from Union station. It seems to me that every other, or every third car, could run by the the station east and west, giving the people who live south of East Capitol street and L>in- i coin Park a through route to the sta- lion, city post office and government printing oflfce without having to transfer, as it is at times im- possible to get on Lincoln Park cars for the jam." Roger C. Wells of Hammond Courts voiced disapproval of the plan to dis¬ continue the routing of Georgetown cars past Union station and the run- ning of all Mount Pleasant cars by the depot. Mr. Wells wants to know if there are not more people who go from Georgetown to the station than from that section to Lincoln Park. ' Transferring Held Essential. Members of the commission pointed nut before the new routes Vere an- nounced that it would be almost im- possible to reroute the lines of the i Washington Railway and Electric Company in such a way as to relieve congestion on the tracks in the heart of the city without requiring some; passengers to transfer who now have through service. They endeavored to arrange the new routes in a way which would benefit ia majority of the public, with the jinain ohject of curing the situation now existing in the area from 14th to Oth on F and G streets. Under the present routing cars become jammed in this territory during the rush hours, with the result that the com¬ pany finds it difficult to keep the sev¬ eral lines which pass through this part of the city moving on schedule. By taking the North Capito! and ttrr.okland cars which now go through 14th street to Georgetown and routing them up Uth street the commission expects to relieve congestion both on 14th and 9th streets. The 11th street cars, under this plan, will be taken off of 9th street in the business section and brought through G street from North Capitol. >o Plan au to Capital Traction. The commission at this time is not considering any rerouting of the lines of the Capital Traction Company. J. H. Hanna, general manager of that company, said his company is not contemplating a request for rerouting at present. The company, he said, will make its next regular traffic co ,nt in January, and this may show whether there are any changes In routing*which could be made to im¬ prove Capital Traction service. GOV.

An Italian resident of Baltimore was questioned at police headquarters yesterday by Inspector (irant, chief of detectives, in an effort to obtain information regarding the Dominick Cuzzucoti murder mystery. The Bal- timore man sai«l he had heard the murder discussed in ai\ Italian pool- j room in Baltimore, but declared he j was unable to throw any light on the tragedy. Told of the circumstances surrounding the finding of the body of the slain man, the Baltimorean said he felt satisfied that robbery was not the motive. Resume Inquiry In Baltimore. Detectives Morgan and Thompson returned to Baltimore this mo 4 ig to resume their investigation. .oe Altemonte, uncle of the murdered man, one of the two persons formally accused of the crime, it was learned, was in business in Baltimore before he moved to Fairmont, W. Va.. and many of his Baltimore friends told the detectives of their association with him. They also knew Cuzzucoti when he resided there. Santos Pi- nestri, resident of Schott alley, also charged with the crime, also was known by numerous Baltimore resi¬ dents of his nationality. Discussing the investigation of the murder mystery. Inspector Grant said members of his force had learned that Mrs. Altemonte had accompanied Cuz¬ zucoti, her nephew, to North Caro¬ lina early in November and that Alte¬ monte had returned from North Caro¬ lina with them about November 15. The three persons were in this city November 15, according to what the detectives learned, and Altemonte and his wife returned to Fairmont. Date of Disappearance. Cuzzucoti, it is stated, was not seen alive after that day, although it was not until December 12 that his body was found in the woods beyond Ben- ning. It is the belief of the defec¬ tives that Cuzzucoti was taken to the country in an automobile, according to Inspector Grant, and identity of the driver of the car is expected to be established. The investigation developed that Cuzzucoti had been arrested in West Virginia for alleged illicit traffic in intoxicant, and released on bond fur¬ nished by his uncle. It also was learned that Cuzzucoti had an account of $500 in a bank in Fairmont. Inspector Grant believes that a num¬ ber of persons were implicated in the crime and that their identity will be jfstablislied before the investigation is concluded. Statements of residents of Baltimore and Fi. irmont have been written by Detectives Morgan and Thompson and may form part of the testimony when Ctoroner Nevitt con- ducts an inquest. . PLANS COMMUNITY WORK FOR COLORED RESIDENTS Service Center Establishes! at Social Settlement House, 18 L Street Sonthwst. Announcement was made today that community service work among c61-i ored residents of the Southwest flec¬ tion of the city is to be centered at the colored social settlement house at 18 L» street southwest, in charge of Francis Wells, assistant, colored work1 department of the community service, and a committee composed of workers of the social settlement house and others.

ASSERTS GERMAN LABOR SITUATION GROWS WORSE Newspaper Declares Industry Shut¬ downs, Bringing' Idleness, Are Threatened. EERL1N, Saturday. December 27.. The semi-official Norddeutsche Allge- meine Zeitung says that the national bureau of statistics in its December issue of the National Labor Gazette declares the German labor situation in Novemer grew steadily worse. "An almost complete stoppage of train service between November 5 and November 15 did make possible a sur¬ plus of 400,000 tons of coal," the bu¬ reau says, "but frequently snow¬ storms hindered coal shipments and all work in the open, and while pro¬ duction increased it was impossible, to supply indus'ries, many of which had to make additional restrictions and lay off employes. Extensive industry shutdowns, throwing a huge number of employes into idleness, are threat¬ ened in the near future. That is most serious in that the number and variety of foreign contracts are constantly rising. A further accentuation of the situation was caused by a continual lack of raw material." The Hamburg Chamber of Com¬ merce, in its annual report, says that relief from the chaotic conditions pre¬ vailing must be found in increased production. Demand for control of ex¬ ports is called a mistake by the cham¬ ber. DARING CLEVELAND HOLD-UP. Armed Footpads Get $75,000 From Bank Messenger. CLEVELAND, Ohio, December 29..
