The Baltimore County union. [volume] (Towsontown, Md.) 1865-1909, 1902-12-27

There was introduced in the first branch of the
CITY Council of Baltimore ON Monday last
resolution which provides for the creation Of a
commission to investigate the proposition to
remove Light street bridge. The author Of
the resolution is hostile to the plan, and the
idea is to crystalline the opposition by getting
commissions report against the project.
In part, the resolution reads that the Com
missioners of Anne Arundel county be reques-
ted to appoint committee of six to confer
with a similar committee of six members of
each branch of the City Council of Baltimore
CITY to be appointed by the president of each
branch. so that proper legislation may be en-

CARNEGIE BARGAINS.
The Great PhiIanthropist Declares He
Is Making the Best Bargains Of His
Life in Giving Away His Money
Makes Notable Speech.

London, May 1.-THE freedom Of the
Plumbers Company was presented to
Andrew Carnegie today at Guildhall in
valuable casket of various metals.
Replying to the presentation address,
Carnegie declared he thought it more
difficult to conscientiously distribute
wealth than to acquire it. "It is the
swimming tenth and not the submerged
which we can greatly benefit" said he.
Any satisfaction which he had derived
from his gifts arose from what he had
induced individuals and committees to
give.
II think 1t will be found" he added,
that far from being a philanthropist I
am engaged in making the best bar
gains of my life. For instance, When
New York had been given over mill
ion pounds for seventy-two libraries l
succeeded in getting pledge from her
that she would furnish sites and main
tain their libraries forever. Her invest
ment is greater than mine. Thissis not
philanthropy. 1t is a clever stroke OF
business. I am open to propositions OF
a similar character from cities in any
part of the English speaking world"
Carnegie gave numerous instances OF
how, thru the investive genius of Great
Britain, her giant child. America, owes
her present position" adding that all
the English could ever learn from
America never could compare with
what America had received from Eng

ALL ISLANDS MAY DISAPPEAR.
Prof. HeiIprin Declares Cavity Has
Formed Within the Earth.


Philadelphia, Pa, May 14.-Profes-
sor Angelo Heilprin, the eminent geoI-
ogist and authority on volcanology, de-
clares there is danger that all the West
Indian reef islands will collapse and
sink into the sea from the effects of the
volcanic disturbances now in progress.
More than that, he says the Nicaraguan
canal route is in danger because it is in
the eruption zone. He is going to Mar
Unique at once to study the situation.
Il purpose to get into the field as
early as possible" he said. II probably
shall go to work on Martinique first,
but shall not overlook the other islands
which are affected.
In my opinion the volcano eruptions
are not the only things to be feared" he
continued. ut is altogether likely that
the volcanic disturbance now going on
may result in the collapse of the islands
whose peaks spring into activity.
"The constant eruptions of rock, lava
and ashes, you must know, means that
hcle, as j. We're, is being made in the
toscm of tn. earth. When this hole
reaches great size that which is
above will be without support and then
subsistence must follow"
Ir Professor Heilprin's opinion the
outburst of Mont Pelee and the great
Soufriere on Moru Garu are arguments
against the use of the Nicaragua route
for trans-isthmian canal.
In speaking directly upon the subject
of the eruptions in the Windwarc
Islands, Professor Heilprin said that it
would be impossible for any geologist
TO assign a cause for the disturbance
and continued:
"The volcanoes of Martinique and ST.
of the Caribbean, are situated In re-
gion of extreme weakness of the
earth's crust, which has it's parallel in
the Mediterranean basin on the oppo-
site side of the Atlantic.
''This American region of weakness
extends westward from the Lesser An
titles across the Gulf of Mexico proper,
where are located some of the loftiest
volcanoes of the globe, Popocatepel
and Orizaba, both now In somnolent
condition, and including the more
westerly volcano of Colima. which has
been almost continuously sin eruption
for ten years.
"This same region Of weakness in
cludes nearly the whole of Central
America. Volcanoes in Costa Rica, Nj
caragua and Guatemala have been re-
peatedly active, some almost to the
present time, many with destructive
effect, and it should be no surprise to
have some of them burst out with the

ROOTS MANEUvER PLANS.
Relieves corbin and Wood Can Get
MANY Ideas in Europe.

Washington, May 1.-THE decision
Of the war department to send Generals
Corbin and Wood to the German army
maneuvers is in line with the desire of
the secretary of war, MIR. Root, to con-
Duct general maneuvers in this coun-
try participated in by both the regu
lars and the militia of the different
states.
The secretary believes that the two
capable officers can get many ideas
from what they see and hear while
abroad to guide the department in its
maneuvers at the four big rendezvous
which have been chosen in this country
for the assembling of our troops. Gen.
eral Wood has had practical experience
in handling troops, and, as an executive
officer It is admitted that General Cor
bin has few superiors. While there will
be no time in this country when any
thing like the number of men can be
assembled for maneuvers as Is assem-
bied by Germany, the same principles
of battle can be followed here on a

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT ON FARM
Horses Run With PuIverizer Which
Passes Over Frank Rosick's Body.

Passes Over Frank Rosick's Body.
Special to Times Republican.
Boone, May IA shocking and
terrible accident occurred about two
miles and half south Of Ogden in
which Frank Rosick was almost killed.
Today he is about the same as on Tues
day evening, with but little prospects of
recovering.
Rosick and son Frank went into the
field on their farm to work. Frank
drove the team, which was hitched to
the pulverizer. About 80 o'clock the
clouds looked as tho it would rain soon,
so the son started to return to the
house with the horses and machine. He
had gone but short distance when one
of the horses became frightened at
something and jumped to the side of
the road. The lines were tied at the
ends and were thrown over the boys
shoulders. When the horse reared up
Frank was jerked from the seat of the
pulverizer and was dragged on the
ground. He could not eXtricate himself
from the lines and when the other horse
started to run the machine passed over
the boy. The big wheels of the pull
verizer made some terrible gashes on
the boy. The back of his head was cut
in several places and the gashes were
very long and deep. The right eye was
cut from his head. His right shoulder
was broken and mashed and his back
bone was crushed. Other bruises and
injuries were received. He lay for
some time before help could reach him
and when he was picked up he was al
most dead. He was taken to his home
and medical aid was summoned from
Ogden. The doctor dressed him in the
best possible manner but he was so ter
ribly injured that hopes for his recov-
cry are slight. The young man who
was injured is about 16 years of age.

Whether the Strike Shall Be
Continued.

Conservative Action.
Sentiment Against Prolonging
the Struggle Appears to
Be Increasing.

Hazelton, Pa, May 14.-The general
convention of United Mine Workers of
America in the anthracite coal terri
tory Of Pennsylvania began here at 10
o'clock this morning, and before it adj
journs sine die will have reached a
definite conclusion on the question of
whether the temporary strike for high
er wages, or shorter hours, which was
inaugurated Monday, shall be made
permanent, or whether the men shall
return to work and await a more op-
Fortune time. There is strong senti-
ment among the delegates against per-
manent suspension of the work at this
time and it promises to make decid-
ed stand against the strike order.
President Mitchell was elected chair
man of the convention. He admonished
the delegates to stand together, what
ever their decision may be. After per-
fecting the organization recess was
taken until this afternoon, when
Mitchell will make a report Of his ne
gotiations with operators.

Hosts of Famishins Peasants Are
Focking to Moscow.
ST Petersburg, May 14.-Enormous
crowds of starving peasants are flock
ing to Moscow from the central pro-
vinces, in search of means of existence
Half dozen freight trains, each car
rying some 1900 persons, are dis
patched daily from Riazan, about 9
hundred miles from Moscow, in addi-
ton to the ordinary traffic. The rail-
road station at RiaZan is inadequate
to hold the refugees, and the wretched
crowds bivouac in the open air, suf-
fering from rain, cold and hunger.
Advices received here from the Baltic
provinces show that the drought and
frosts have greatly damaged the winter
sowings. Thus far there is no trace
of grass, and the peasants are re-
duced to feeding their stock on rotten
straw taken from the roofs of the cot
tages.

benefit of the countervailing duty and
would receive all the benefit of conces-

REBATE FOR cUBANs.
Republican Plan to Settle the Tariff
Question,


washington, May 14-Senator Plat
Of Connecticut, returned to Washing
ton today after an outing of four days
Senator Aldrich will return tomorro"
or next day. Senator Plat is the SEN
ator of all others on the republican
side to evolve satisfactory solutions OF
questions which rise to yex his col
leagues. Senator Aldrich is the politi-
cal manager for the senate republl-
cans. With the return of these two
prominent factors to the capital the
prospect for the bringing forward OF
plan of action in the direction of Gu
ban concessions will not be long de-
layed.
From the first Senator Platt has
contended for straight reciprocity
measure for the relief of the Cubans
Senator Aldrich has been for conces-
sions, but has insisted that no plan be
adopted which has as a part of it the
removal Of the differential on refined
sugar This means that with his in
fiuence, favorable action on a bill with
such provision can be prevented.
One of the difficulties which face the
majority in the senate there seems tC
be a solution pushing itself forward
steadily. That is the adoption of re-
bate plan. The proposition is not q
new one, but until today there We're few
expressions On the republican side ia
vorable to it. If another plan could be
found which would meet with favor
from the republican majority it would
probably be adopted. There has, how
ever, been such strong opposition tc
straight reciprocity from a large ele-
ment of republican senators that the
leaders in favor of it have been obliged
to cast about for something that would
be acceptable.
Early in the consideration of the
question Senator Aldrich announced
that there would not be a step taken
until plan had been arrived at which
was acceptable and would receive the
unanimous support of all the republi-
can senators. Cuban concessions, he
says, are proposed as an administration
measure, and to carry out the policy
and pledges of President Mckinley. Ev-
en- ii the efforts to pass straight rec
iprocity measure proved successful, the
house, with strong element among re-
publicans there opposed to straight rec
iprocity, would have to be reckoned
with. This same element has con-
tended for the rebate plan, and will ac-
cepr it without question.

Richmond Beach has been a favorite

Newark and New Jersey towns for
nearly five years. 1t is situated about
a mile from Huguenot Station, on the
Perth Amboy division of the Staten
Island Rapid Transit railroad, about
twenty-five minutes by train from ST.

shore front with a fine beach, and back
from it extends a forty-acre wooded
estate, which includes a picturesque
lake called Arbutus Lake. On the shore
of this lake stands a commodious hotel
The announcement of the sale was
made thru notice sent out to the eff
feet that Richmond Beach would no
longer be conducted as a public resort,
it having been sold to Mr.. Schwab.

of personally conducted charity with
broad scope and that no time will be
lost in getting it under way"
