SUGGESTS THAT A FUND
BE RAISED FOR DEWEY

NEW YORK, May 12.-The New
York Times in an editorial entitled
What Shall We Do for Dewey?" to-
morrow win say:
What shall we do for the man who has
done much for us7 That is the question
which has for a long time been agitating
the American people. 1t is quite true
that, according to our precedents. we
have not been nfggardly in recognition
Of the great services of Commodore
Dewey, as he was a year ago. But there
is persistent and prevailing feeling that
we ought to do more; that the Ameri-
can nation in some unofficial and SpOnta-
neOus way should recognize the services
of Dewey as the British nation recognized
the services Of Wellington when It pre-
sented him with the estate of Strathfield-
say. Evidently it will not do to make up
any exclusive acknowledgment of the
services of an American hero, to whom
all Americans feel equally grateful. EVi-
IDENTIFY ii viii not do to leave him at the
mercy of a group Of millionaires. Evi-
IDENTIFY it will not do to exclude from the
national testimonial to the admiral any
American citizen who desires to bear his
part in it. Why not appeal directly to
the public through its immediate organs
and agents, the newspapers, which get
their living by representing its senti-
ments2
There are some 10000 periodicals in the
United States which are entitled to trans
mission as such through the mails.
Among them are PIG daily papers. which
represent most Immediately and most ac-
Curately the sentiment of the United
States. Let US assume that only a fourth
part of these are In a position TO act as
collecting and distributing agents for a
national Dewey testimonial and that
each one of these 500 is willing to pledge
itself 10 the collection from its readers
and the transmission to the appointed
trustees Of the sum of $500 for that fund.
Surely this estimate is moderate enough
and surely the amount of each individual
subscription, which must be strictly fixed
and limited is moderate enough to pre-
vent any newspaper from exploiting the
admiral for the purpose of advertising
itself. And yet the aggregate of the sub

A fire broke out in the chlorate house
and eighty tons of chIorate exploded,
causing much destruction. Subsequent
ly the boiler exploded and the whole
works was razed. The town was strewn
with debris and a great number of the
buildings in the place were damaged.
The total loss was 100000.
Quantities of burning oil streamed
into the cutters and spread the devas-
tation. The gas works was badly dam
aged and the gasometer, which con-
