SECRETARY LONGS RECOMMENDATIONS
TO CONGRESS.
ACCIDENT TO THE MASSACHUSETTS SHOW
NEED OF IMPROVEMENTS.
TpY TELEGRAPH TO TIRE TRIBUNE.

[BY TELEGRAPH TO TIRE TRIBrNE.l
washington Jan. 10.---As result Of the
grounding % the battle-ship Massachusetts IN
New York Harbor. damaging that vessel to an
extent that necessitates several months Of USE
lessness while under repairs at an expense that
will approximate 100000 Secretary Long has
sent a letter to Congress. which will doubtless
have consideration by the River and Haroor
Committee. setting forth the fact that the New
York Navy Yard. which has cost the Govern
mont MANY millions. though the chief re-
pair establishment Of the Navy. cannot De APP
proached by warships unless under exception
ally favorable conditions Of wind and tide lie
adds that until essential harbor improvements
are completed the largest ships upon when the
Government depends for defence. cannot resort
to this Navy Yard for work that may De lndls-
pensabe.
In this connection 1t developed to-day that the
court Of inquiry which investigated the circum-
s,arcas of the grounding Of the Massachusetts,
fixed the responsibility upon her captain navi-
eating officer and pilot for attempting TO go
down the bay from the Navy Yard under the
conditions which prevailed at the time the acci-
dent occurred. The inquiry developed that on
,be+ dav the Massachusetts, drew 70 feet
inches and that according to the ofnciai recorus
of the Coast Survey upon the same date ana al
the hour she struck there was only ~ teet w
inches Of water above Diamond Reef. Inc AidS-
sachusetts was therefore drawing sixteen incheS
more water than existed in the channel sne was
comnelled to take 10 reach the Lower Bay
It appears that on account Of the prevalence OF
westerly winds the state Of the tide IN New-forN
Harhor when the Massachusetts, struck nad
reached an abnormal point, stated by the coast
Survey officials to have been one and one-tehth
foot below mean low water and the Keel OF the
vessel WAS therefore pushed up into the snip
about q foot. II mean low water had existed the
Massachusetts, would have still drawn seVerai
inches more water than could have been found
IN that part Of the harbor, and when II is re-
roenbered that the great ocean liners ana other
merchant vessels draw three or four feet more
than the Massachusetts, II Is evident that New
York Harbor in the vicinity Of Diamond Reef Is
altogether unsafe for the vast fleet using the
chief Atlantic port Of the United states Inc
Army engineers have repeatedly called attention
N these dangers 70 navigation, and estimated
that II would cost S2O00OO0 TO remove them.
OF this amount they have urgently recommend
ed the appropriation OF 100000, which ought To
ne expended in the next year Perhaps THESE
facts will have some effect on Congress

DR.. pEARsoNs COMING.

Qua local columns contain the news
that DR.. ID. X. Pearsons of Chicago,
who las made such a generous offer TO
aid In the establishment of a college at
Billings. will visit this city early in
June. The committee having the
matter in charge has therefore decided
not to call a mass meeting of citizens
to consider the proposition until his ar
rival. but in the meantime the enter
prise should be encouraged by our peo-
pie in every manner possible; they
should both think and talk of it and
leave nothing undone to bus the in
terest of the entire community. Another
prominent citizen, in addition to Mayor
TTegen. has signifed his willingness to
subscribe I'll, 900, and when the proper
time at least a dozen such dona-
tions should be recorded. The enter
prise seems to grow in favor daily.
The name of DIR. Pearsons. who has
done so much fol the cause of higher
education, inspires confidence that the
college will be 40 weakling, if it is
once established here, while the senti-
ment is unanimous that no enterprise
conld accomplish more toward the
building mp and advancement of the
city. All that is to be determined,
then, is whether Billings can raise
enough money 10 deserve the generous
Request offered by DIR. Pearsons. His
conditions-to give $50. 900 if Billings
will raise a like amount-can probably
not be complied with, but there is a
growing belief that, if the city does all
she can and makes a creditable show :
ing, the deficit will be forthcoming
from some source, DIR. HELLER. who
represents DR.. P~earsons, encourages this
impression and very likely has positive
OF material financial aid.
The college, we feel sure, cal be Sc
cured for this city il it makes tbs right
kind of al effort, aud to this end every
pablic spirited citizen should bend all
his energies, Let us be prepared to
give DR., Pearsons q cordial welcome
aad ropsipg meeting on the occasion of
his visit, to be followed by subscrip-
tions to the extent of at least $25. 600.
Billings can do that much; she will be
dereliet in her duty it she does not and
have no one but herself to blame if she
loses this splendid Opportunity to adj
vance her interests.

THE FNpRTH 0F WV,

Billings should have an old fash
Toned roHsing Fourth Of July oelebra-
zion this year, She has not observed
this gerat national holiday in a number
OF yeats and it is time the patriotism
OF our people was being turned loose,
There il an abundance of it here and it
should be given vent, The absence of
\ celebration in this city was generally
remarked and regretted last year and it
was the coneaHsHs of opinion that Bill
iags was the loser in q financial way on
account of tho oversight, 1t should
not occur AGAIN, The surrounding
country looks to this city on suoh an
occasion and it is her duty to furnish
amusement and entertainment to the
people, to say nothing of the desire of
all patriots to celebrate the nations in
dependence,
Who will start the movement for a
proper observance of the glorious
Fonrfhf 4 celebration can be made a
roRsing success in Billings, which is
ripe for red fire and 2 burst of patriot
ism that will astonish the oldest inhab-
ifaHt.
