the British steamship Anglo CHILEAN and
landed at Havre Thence they were sent
by the American Consul 10 London.
The Chester was bound from Nova Scotia
for Barbados with cargo OF lumber. She
encountered heavy weather and was driven
far out of her course. A hurricane blast
sent her over on her beam ends, and TO right
her her masts were cut away. Her rudder
and bowsprit were smashed and she drifted
four days.
Then the Anglo CHILEAN came along and
took of all hands, including a Maltese cat
and parrot. The little ship was tight
below and all hands lived under deck while
the storm was raging. They had plenty to
eat and drink and suffered 40 hardship
except what hardy little woman like
the shippers wife could bear without com
plant. The skipper says she would not
have complained anyway if there had been
anything TO complain about as she is just
as clever a seaman as the best topsawyer
aboard. The parrot. which has been gong
to sea with the skipper and his wife for
the past thirteen years, made the ship

which were chiefly nautical and of a sort
at times that real good sky pilots might

TO take all hands from the schooner at once
They made two trips of it. The shippers
wife had TO jump to reach the iifeboat,
which could not with safety go close along
side of the wreck, and she did the trick
like a trained salt. The next day a great
storm arose, and Mrs. Nelson said she
was mighty glad that Providence had
permitted all hands to be taken of the day
before.

sTArE LABoR FOLKS RAIDINe.
Get AFTER the Sweat shops in Unlicensed
BulldnEs-Not Ike Other Raids.

Twenty inspectors attached to the State

shops in the vicinity OF lowcr Elizabeth

noon The raids were interesting, owing
to the contrast between them and the

The raiders, four of whom were women
entered the places IN pairs grabbed up all
the clothing In sight, and placing a State
tag on the bundles then notified all hands
that there would be nothing doing. as far
as the continuation OF clothing manufacture
was concerned.
The raids were not attended by the break
ing Of glass or the smashing down OF doors,
and no one became greatly excited. An
Flizabeth street cop witness summed up
) the situation when he said 1t was case Of

The raids were the result Of the failure
OF tenement owners 10 comply with an
amendment, TO the State labor laws In
or agents of buildings where clothing Is
made 10 SECURE a license from the State
Labor Department. The landlords of
tenements and small buildings have shown
tendency TO get along without the license.
When the raided sweatshop proprietors
heard the explanation their wrath turned
quickly from the inspectors to the land

and the landlord greed TO Cake out q loense
as soon as possible In many cases either
the owner or his agent hurried TO the head
quarters of the State Labor Department,
at 107 East Thirty-frst street, and took out
the necessary license before the offices
closed for the day,
The inspectors say they will continue
the raids until all owners of buildings in
which clothing is manufactured get licenses.

THE PRESIDENT TO CONGRESS-.
He Urges the Passage or the Bill Arecun5
the Ordnance Fad Medical Corps


WASHINGTON. Jan. President Rose
velt's great interest in everything pertain
ing 10 the military establishment was shown
to-day, when he sent a message to Congress
urging the passage Of bills to increase the
efficiency OF the oriponcs and tho rnadicol
corps OF the army.
Incidentally thar part Of the message
dealing with the ordnance corps lndlcat es
the Presidents conviction that the sysl EN-
recently established of detailing officers Of
the line to St aft depart ment and providing
for the gradual abolition Of all permanent
staf positions u failure y n FAR as II
applies to ordnance work.
The bill for the hetterment OF this highly
efficient body provides IN substance that
Majors. Lieutenant Colonies and Colonels
of ordnance shall hold permanent COM
missions in that corps, and that temporary
details from the line shall be made only 10
the grades of Captain and First Lieutenant
The duties Of ordnance officers are 80
exacting and such a great amount of study
is required that few officers Of the line
cared to enter the corps with the knowledge
that under the law they would be obliged
to return TO the line at the end of four years
thus preventing a continuance OF ordnance
work and al the same time would be re-
quired 10 keep in touch with line affairs in
order 70 be able to pass their examinations
in the line branch 81 the service.
The bill whose passage the President
urges seeks TO overcome this difficulty by
permitting detailed line officers 10 take
the examination for permanent commits
sions as Majors in the ordnance corDs.
