ELECTRIC LIGHTING.

Mr.. MaoKay has failed to sign the
electric light contract with the city, or
to Gle his bond as required to mako the
ordnance and franchise effective His
action has been forecast by TIE TIMES.
Mr.. nacKay would have been very fool
ish TO sign any such contract, for while
the city's interests were not particu-
larly conserved, it WAC a sure thing
that Mr.. MacHay would lose money
under it.
Now Roanoke wants electric lights.
Bat 1T wants She right. Let the board
of public works be called upon to fur
nish plans and specifications before
bids are called fer, and get the thing
into proper shape. And while the
matter is up, it will be vast economy
If the existing plant could be extended
to supply the demand
rival company would mean an un-
healthy comp titioni Ia field only largo
enough for one successful plant. until
the usual result was obtained, the weak
one succumbing and being absorbed by
the stronger, the dear public paying
the cost of the fight in the end and div
iiends of one idle plant absorbed in wa.
tered stock.
The present tendency in municipal
franchise granting is to restrict tho
powers of existing monopolies, rather
than to attempt to curb them by grant
ing competing privileges to now con.
Germs. Why not make q close contract
with the present electric light com
pany and restrict their charges, as tho
Gas and Water Company are restricted?

Mr.. Phelps Closing Argument Before
tho Tribunal.
PARIS, July 5.-Notwit hstanding the
fact that yesterday was the great Ameri-
can holiday counsel for tue United States
appeared before the Behring Sea tribunal
of arbitration as usual. and the Hon. 4.
j. Phelps continued his closing address
In behalf of the American contention. He
examined the diplomatic correspondence
that had been exchanged by Russia AID
England prior to the ratification of the
treaty of 1925 and showed from il that
great Britain had proposed a passage to
the treaty that would have included Behr-
ing sea In the limits of the Pacific ocean,
but Russia had refused TO assent to the
proposition.
Replying to a question asked by Lord
Hammer, one of the British arbitrators Mr..
Phelps stated that the one hundred mile
limit had beeu maintained until 1867, as
far as IL related to the protection OF the
sealing industry. The limit had never
been interfered with until pelagic sealing
began.
Mr. Phelps discussed maritime law 10
prove that the freedom of the seas was
relative and not absolute. Formerly, he
said, the mare clausum doctrine had pre-
vailed, and nations asserted jurisdiction
over all such portions OF the sea as they
chose. Grotius the Dutch statesman and
jurist, was the first person TO PROFOUND
The theory of mare liberum, in his work
Mare Liberun."

SAD RESULT OF A CELEBRATION.
Thought He Was Going To he White
capped Because He Extorted $50
From q Young Man Who Kissed His
Daughter boys Were Celebrating.

TUNBRIDGE, VT, July S.-Will Clogston
was shot by AloazoC G. Porter early yester-
day morning, Porter using shotgun.
A large shot struck Clogston near the
windpipe, went two inches into bis neck
and lodged against the carotid artery.
The shot has been removed, and Clogston
Is living. Porter has been arrested and
will probably be held until 1t Is known
whether Clogston will live or not.
Clogston, when shot, was with party
of young men in the pasture beside the
Tunbfidge road, opposite and about 20
rods distant from Porter's residence.
He was watching the rest OF the party,
who were engaged in
Ushering I'm the Fourth
by blowing horns ard firing an old anvil
that was used as substitute for "a cannon.
They had but just commenced firing
when Porter came out Of his house and
opened fire.
The second charge he fired struck young
Clogstop. part of the shot went through
his clothing and one entered his neck.
The owner of the pasture says he gave
the boys permission to go into 1t and have
as big celebration as they could.
The boys say they had NO intention Of
harming Porter or OF going upon his
premises, but that there might have been
some thought Of waking him up.
Porter has had some trouble with the
young people because of the story of his
taking $50 from young man who at
tempted to kiss his daughter one day last
week
Monday he came here and got large
amount of chatting from the young people.
Monday night he received letter in
which he WAS
Threatened with Trouble
and with having his house torn down II he
did not return the $50. This letter was
signed "Whitecaps"
Since the shooting Porter has said he
supposed the young men in the pasture
came 10 carry ont the threat contained in
the letter and that he fired his gun into
the air thinking he would scare them
away.
CloSston Is a general favorite, and IL he
should die Porter would receive rough
treatment from the people, it Is thought

MIGHT HAVE BEEN SHOT.
Admiral Tryon Escaped an Ignominous
Death by sinking with His khip.

LONDON, July o-S,r Charles Dixie, one
Of England's most eminent lay authori-
ties in naval and military matters, who
was interviewed concerning the reports
that Admiral Tryon was suffering from
temporary mental arrangement when he
conducted the maneuvers off Tripoli, said:
"While the foreign office has a deal to say
on this subject, Unjust confess that Admi-
raj Tryon never gave me the idea that he
had any mental weakness whatever. One
OF the lords of the admiralty said that
better sailor than Tryon never trod ships
deck. The blundcr simply passes compre-
hension. Had Tryon lived he must have
been adjudged guilty according to the
present evidence, and unless the crown
used its prerogative have been shot"
Major General Walter Goldsworthy said;
"Tryon served with me In Abyssina. He
was astireless and Iclearheaded worker. 1
never heard OF any mental deviation or
want of precision on his part. His fatal
error in judgement must have arisen from
illness.
Numerous private letters have been re
ceived from sailors of the Mediterranean
feet. One sailor, who was on one of the
smaller vessels. writes In reference to Ad-
miral Tryon's signal: I'VE all stood
amazed at such a signal. knowing very
well that there was no room for the ships
to turn, hut the orders had TO be obeyed.
although the vessel was sinking under
him Tryon signaled, refusing boats. May
never see suchn case Of wholesale murder
again. We saw the men fall in at COM
mand four deep on the forecastle till the
water reached their feet. They then re-
ceived orders to fall in on the quarter deck.
All the time they never attempted to go
near the boats. This will show you how
naval discipline is ground into people. The
whole feet could see the poor fellows stand
ing in perfect order, quietly drowning in
their ranks"
