ABOUT TONNAGE

In speaking of the output of tonnage
London Fairplay remarks:
Most people connected with ship ing
are surprised that the great depressi N
in the trade has not had the effect of
restricting building, and they are UNI
able to account for the wholesale crea-
ton of new tonnage. But there are the
facts and they can not be got over.
The mischievous thing is that people
not in the know should jump to the
conclusion that the huge output of
| British tonnage does and can only be
token unusual prosperity in the trade
| For a considerable time past the re-

testified to the depression in freights

is misconception on a large scale some
where, and it is astonishing that ship
owners will suffer some very serious
losses in their efforts to remove it. The
department talks of prosperity when
serious adversely is being experienced"
What the remedy for over-building
may be FairpIay does not undertake to
say, comments the New York Maritime
Register. It is evident that so long as
it continues freights generally will re-

AS it is, it only adds to the already too
great amount of tonnage af1oat. Trade
rivalry is, of course, at the bottom of
it all. New and better adaptable YES
sells for particular trades are contin-
ually being built and the older ones,
Il not retained in service, are often sold (!
to foreigners, who use them in conpet- Il

across the top OF 4 coal pocket and as he did

of coal he slid downward leaving only his finger

This was neither good for Mr.. Bertram's raj

TRAGEDY AFTER SUPPER

J. O'Rourke of Richmond Hill, Queens an cleo
trician. uwenty-eight years old, early yesterday
morning whipped out a revolver and fired two
shots at the woman, who is twenty-four years.
One of the bullets struck her in the temple and
the other in the right forearm. which she had
thrown UP to guard her face. The fell
70 the floor unconscious. and O'Rourke proba-
bly, thinking he had killed her. turned the
weapon himself and fell dead beside his wife,
with the revolver still clasped in his right hand
The noiss Of tho shooting attracted the atten-
ton OF neighbors, and when some of then vent
ured to enter the house. they found them both
lying on the floor Of the sitting room in pools Of
blood A doctor set to work to restore Mrs.
ORourle, bringing her to consciousness after an
hours work. An ambulance from st. Mary's
Hospital was called. and DIR. Golding took the
woman back with him. He said later that the
condition Of the woman was not serious and that
she would probably recover.
The O'RouTkes were married about two years
ago and have no children. He was looked upon
as a prosperous electrician, and had his office
the first floor of his home. Until recently the
couple appeared TO be living happily, but OF late
quarres between them have been frequent. Be
cause Of these quarrels Mrs. ORourke's brother.
Henry Maier. who lived with his wife on the
top floor of the house. moved out about month
ago Since then the couple have lived alone in
the house.
About four days ago Mrs. O'Rourke caused
the arrest of her husband, and he was arraigned
before Magistrate Healey, at Far ROCkaWay,
charged with assault. She relented when the
case was called, and begged the magistrate 10
let him go. The magistrate, however, refused
TO do so, and set a hearing for next Friday.
A truce must have been patched up. the
police say that the couple evidently enjoyed a
good time last night before the tragedy. On the
table in the dining room We're the remnants Of
a supper. with several empty wine bottles. The
police think that O'RouTke may have taken too
much Of the wine
Parolman Roberts of tho Richmond Hill sta
ton, who lives next door to the O'Rourkes, was
the first man to enter the house after the shoot
ing. Coroner Amber took charge of the case

Ruons morgue until relatives OF the woman
could be told.
