'The coroner is holding the body of the young Virginian pending the receipt of orders for its disposal from her re latives in the South. Her skull was split open and she died on the operating table at the United Hospital, of Port Chester, while the surgeons were work ing desperately to save her life. Miss Lette had been in New York only four days, having come to buy the season's millinery shapes and trimmings and to learn the fall and winter styles. She was the guest of her friend, Miss Ruth Dolling, of 452 Fort Washington Avenue on the upper West Side of the city, and last night the two accepted an invitation from Ralph McAuley.of 1202 Broadway, salesman for" the clothing firm of Rogers, Peet & Cov of Broadway and Thirteenth street, for a spin in an auto mobile into the country from this city to Rye Beach. The machine was hired from the garage of Henry A. Benjamin, of Forty third street, William Meegan.chauffeur. The party stopped at Port Chester, where, they had dinrrr, afterward pro ceeding on their way to Rye Beach. In making the curve at high speed at Rye Beach the machine's wheels skid ded on the recently-oiled pavement, the automobile turned turtle, and Mies Lette was killed. 'The chauffeur was placed under arrest by the policemen who' responded to the calls for help on a charge of reck less driving. ' The other ocupants of the car were "hurried to the hospital in an ambulance." ' , Miss Lette's body will be burled at Chase City and will reach there today, according to a telegram received here yesterday by Miss Bessie Smith from Miss Mae Lette, of Chase City, a sister Miss Lillie Lette. Miss Smith is a saleslady in the millinery - establish ment which Miss Lette conducted. The store has been closed since news of the death of the proprietress reached here, a card on the door anouncing that the store is closed on account of the death ot Miss Lette. : BOOSTEA .11 HOLIES SEPT.VI6 Seven Coaches Hundreds of Richmond's Business -J" Men on Board. ...

Must Have , ;- Information ' 1 ' ' t?i . rr .-fcsssjiS...iu f MAKE t INVESTIGATION Will Inquire Into Com plaints If Necessary Facts Shown. Congressman John M. Fslson has is sued a letter to the truckers and tl h dealers of his district asking that they get the facts and figures as to their losses from delayed trains and the time it has taken their shipments to rsarh their destination. Dr. Faison points out that it is necessary for these facts to be obtained as the Infrstate Com merce Commission w it not ba in a po sition to make the desired investiga tion if it does not hive the informa tion on which to btse snch an inveati gation. Dr. Faison's letter follows : ''The Interctats Commerce Commis sion, through its Chairman, Judge Jud son Clements, has agreed to thoroughly investigate the schedules, rate and re- frig 'ration of the freight ani expras train service for ths fruit and truck growers and hah dealer i o? Eastern North Carolina during the min'ha of September and- October. 'I have b ten req tested to insist up on the truckers gathering ard collect ing their losses from delayed trains tt shipping point, in transit, or at mar ket point, so that they wjil have cor.eci amount of loss, d'e of Bhipm snt and ex ict time of delay in transit to ratr- ket. ''The necejsi y of su:h correct as- countsis apptrent to a'l concerned, as thi Intersta'e Commerce C mmUsion must havo acc ir ite facts a id state men Is upon which to baaa its invuati ga i ins. ' The truckers aad fl'h dealers will need some time to get up such accurate statements from their own b oks, - the local buyers' bo )ks aid from tbe rec ord sale books of the northern commis sion men. 'So I must irfsUt on the truckers and fish dealers gottinr ready fur such in vestigation at once so that you will be ready in' time. 'Such acc rate accounts will also en able you to readily 10'lect your losses from railroad companies as thsy can no longer refuss to pay los e3 due to such continued negligence on their part. 'If the truckers w in t relief from lieu losses,- now in my judgment, is their chance to get fast and better freight and express service." A NARROW ESCAPE. Vancaboro, Aug. 29.
