Washington Letters Describe Capitol Secrets and Deeds
Three sisters visit Washington D C to tour the Library and Capitol, riding the underground monorail between the Capitol and Senate office building and viewing the Supreme Court, dome, whispering gallery, and historic maps and letters. They note John Hancock and Charles Carroll signatures and glimpse old continental money and a Baltimore and Ohio railroad link. A fire wrecks the Chrisney hotel, with $8,000 loss and rebuilding planned.

Rockport Passenger Train Plan Inches Toward Start
A Rockport branch passenger train from Lincoln City to Rockport may begin within fifteen days after a public service hearing in Indiana. Petitioners argued Rockport freight, especially moulding sand and strawboard shipments, justify the service. A tentative schedule change could shift freight to the night run, making the forenoon train a passenger service only, pending final commission action.
