Local businessmen, the Boston Chamber of Commerce, and the Merchants' Association backed the move to reestablish the old westbound differential after March 16.

Contested Will Fragment: Roebuck Estate in Brooklyn
The will of octogenarian Brooklyn wire maker Lemuel Roebuck, who died February 8, is challenged by a later document. The first will leaves the Roebuck home to widow Ella Roebuck and the remainder to Elizabeth Bird’s children at Northampton England, omitting Roebuck’s sons and daughters. A subsequent will revokes that bequest, naming only an annuity to Elizabeth Bird’s line and giving the entire estate to Bird’s children, while Roebuck’s widow and others question Elizabeth Bird’s existence.
