He afterward organized the banking house of Moffatt White, of which his brother-in-law was the junior partner.

Mr. Moffatt was a director of the Electric Bond and Share Company, and the Lake George Real Estate Company, and was especially interested in the Oregon Electric Railway Company and the Portland coal Company, which he had organized. He had been at Portland, since October 12, and shortly after was taken with the severe attack which Bent him to the hospital. His widow who was Miss Francis White, had been with him for the past month. He leaves three sons, two at Harvard, and the third at Middlesex School, Concord and a daughter.

Instead of conducing to safety, the narrow pens destroyed what safety there was. More than 10,000 people were Jammed Into the narrow runways, and those nearest the cars narrowly escaped death In dozens of instances. They were Jammed directly against the cars, and there was no way for the crowd to spread out laterally to relieve the congestion. Cries of rage, pain and fear made a pandemonium of the rush hour affair as a result.

The idea originated in the Bridge Department. A certain difference of opinion exists among the engineers in the department as to the best way of loading human cattle on the cars. A set of plans calling for the runway or chute Idea were submitted to the B. R. T.

Kellogg Durland, the writer and sociologist, who died in Boa-ton on November 19 of cyanide poisoning, received, two days after bis death, a letter from him at her home, 1364 East Twenty-seventh street, P'latbush, which suggested that he was despondent and contemplated suicida. This letter has been turned over to Alexander Green, the attorneys for tha Equitable Life Assurance Society, in which Durland had a $16,000 policy. The insurance company is Inquiring closely into all the facts surrounding the writer's death. It is a peculiar fact, however, that the letter to Durland'a mother was dated November 16, three days before he died, but was not mailed until November 21, two days after his death. It was received by her on the day following.

The letter opened as follows: 'Not being able to tell you what I want to in this life, I am writing to you." Then there was a veiled reference to a "monstrous charge" which Durland said 3omeone had made against him and which evidently preyed on his mind. "I am trying to be a BOldier," Durland continued, "and you should try to be a soldier's mother." Durland savs that the letter was Brooklyn. Fine Opportunity for Endowed Theater Here, Says Prof. Hooper. On the basis of the interest which will be aroused by the presentation of these plana, it is proposed to effect some kind of an organization which will serve as a nucleus for the movement.

Should we not be able to enlist their help and active co-operation in a movement of this kind? We don't get them in the Institute, and I am afraid that they have little relation with the civic or ethical movements of their home community. This is unfortunate for them and bad for the community, and I believe we can and should enlist their co-operation In advancing this project for an endowed theater.

"In my travels in England, Scotland, France end Germany I have found that even in the smaller cities it is possible on almost any night to go to a good play, well acted by a local company.

Mr. Manning refused emphatically to enter into any controversy with any member of the Kings County Lawyers' Association.

Ferdinand Pin-ney Earle of affinity fame has a claim amounting to several hundred dollars for rent of his summer home in Monroe, N. Y. The Durlands lived there for a time. Commissioner Brophy of the Equitable, who has charge of the investigation into Durland's death, said today that the inquiry was proceeding very slowly. Such facts as had come to light, he added, all tended to support the theory of suicide, and there was nothing except inuendos and Insinuations upon which to base the theory of foul play.

William Leonard, attorney for Mrs. Durland, said that Durland had gone to Boston and begged his wife to Join him in death. What passed between the Durlands was said in the presence of the mutual friend of the two, Parmelee, and he was afterward examined by the attorneys for the insurance company. Mr. Parmelee told Mr.

Leonard that Durland pleaded with his wife to join him in death in two talks which he had with her, one at the Hotel Touraine and one at the Bellbvue, and that he begged her to send the Parmelees out of the room at the Bellevun so that they might die together. Boston Police Asked to Watch Durland, Durland's actions were such that the police had been asked by Medical Examiner Magrath of Boston to pick Durland up In order that he might be examined as to his mental condition, Mr. Leonard declared. Mrs. Durland had private detectives accompany her, believing that her life was in danger.

When the fight between Mayor Gaynor and Magistrate Corrigan was at its height Durland espoused the cause of Magistrate Corrigan and championed him vigorously.
