MOTOR MADE TROUBLE.
Organ at Union Church Did Not Ente,
Into Easter Spirit Very Successfully.

Few of the large congregation at IN
ion church last night realized the diff
fculty with which a greater part of
the evenings music was carried
through until made acquainted with
the fact by an announcements from the
pastor
For some time past it has been evil
dent that the machinery used in con-
nectton with the organ Is too delicate,
and that sooner or latter IL will be
necessary to make a change During
the past week skilled Workmen have
been employed constantly trying to adj
just the present motor. Yesterday an
expert was at work inside the organ all
through the service.
About one-third of the evenings pro-
1t became evident that the expected
resulting from the defect in the me-
chanism of the organ failed to discon-
cert the singers, however, and anthems
as well as other music were carried
through without a break.
The incident reflects great credit up
on the singers and the choir master,
Henry Dixie Sleeper as we'll The quar-
tet, made UP of Miss Alice M East~
man, soprano; Louise Shumway Heron,
who substituted for Miss Damon, con-
tralto; Fred I. Day, tenor, and John H.
Howell, bass, rehearsed as a Quartet
for the first time Friday night The
manner in which the music was car
ried through won the heartiest com
mendation Of the church people.

proved to be ours and as one by one
they received a kick from the sow, they
gathered their tails between their legs
and ran bowling up the street in front
of a Quinsigamond car.
This was the undoing of the sow,
though, for it gave the crowd a chance

WANTS NAVAL BOARD.
Congressman Foss Urges
Necessity Of New Naval
Policy.

London Aug, 14-Congressman
George Edmund Foss of Chicago, who
is in this city. was asked about the in
| terview he had with Emperor William
of Germany, on board the imperial
4 yacht Hohenzollern at Kiel, Aug. 2. He
said that his majesty, in the interview
referred to. had not made the remark
that German-Americans would not per-
nit an aggressive policy on the part
| of the United States toward Germany,
and that nothing of this kind had been
mentioned. However, it was gathered
| from the conversation with Mr.. Foss
that the remainder of the interview
with Emperor William, as published in
the German newspaper and cabled to
the Associated Press, was correct.
Mr.. Foss said he regarded the con-
versation with his majesty as conf
Dental and would not give any of it
out for publication, except to say that
Emperor William expressed the kind
Hest feelings towards the United
States, and was in no way influenced
by the newspaper reports in regard to
the Dewey interview and other mat
ters.
Mr.. Foss expressed great admiration
for the emperor, and said that his
keenness in the matter of naval ques-
lions was remarkable. While In Ger
many, Mr.. Foss learned that glasses
were being tested whereby smoke from
smokeless powder could be discovered
at long range. This, he said, was a
new american invention.
Mr., Foss has already visited the
navy yards of Denmark, Sweden,
France, Germany, Austria and Italy.
He expects to be here for a fortnight,
and intends to inspect the British naval
stations. He says he has received the
greatest courtesy, and has been afford
ed every opportunity to see everything.
He is much impressed with the naval
activity Of Europe. He has been over
ships in course of construction, and mas
discussed most naval points with lead
ing European officials.
My belief" said Mr.. Foss, sis that
the most important legislation of con-
gress for decade will be on naval mat
tiers. We are just beginning our naval
existence. From my experience on the
continent, l believe we should have a
permanent naval policy board, with
say Admiral Dewey at It's head, COM
posed of leading naval officers The
cabinet could then decide on a naval
policy on broad lines, which the board
can carry out in detail. The recon-
mendations of such a board would be
bound to be needed by congress more
than those Of a civilian board. This
policy is followed by France, but it is
not that l wish to adopt European
principles that I set forth this fact.
We want distinctly American naval
policy but we want the best Of every
thing that other nations have, and
most of all, we want a permanent ma
val policy. This is to be achieved by
such board. The Spanish war has
given US wonderful prestige in Eu-
rope. On all sides 1 hear good words
for the American navy.

MANAGERS CONFER.
Dooley is Not Decided How Many
Double Headers He VIII Require.

Manager Leonard had q consultation
with Manager Dooley of the Montreals
last evening relative to the postponed
games which Worcester owes Montreal.
Manager Leonard desired to know what
he might expect when he reaches Mont
raj on the last trip. Manager Dooley said
he thought he might require the Worces-
ters to play one double-header but he
would probably let the other two games
slide He could not say definitely, pre-
ferring to wait until the Worcesters
reached Montreal. Manager Dooley add
ed 1t might denend on the standing of the
teams when Worcester reaches Montreal.
Toronto owes Worcester a game, but
Manager Leonard has not yet decided
whether he will ask the Overhomes to
play double-header.
Manager Leonard was asked by The
Spy man last evening If he received no.
tice that Boston will not be. allowed to
play an exhibition game with the Wor-
cesters Sept. g. as was agreed on by the
managers Of both teams. He said ne has
not. He secured the consent of Manager
Barnie of Hartford to transfer the sehed-
uled game with Hartford In order that
Boston might play. Manager Leonard
hopes Boston will play to show the fans
OF this city how the Eastern League
crack-a-jacks compare with the cham
pions of the National League.
