NO COAL STRIKE AT THIS Time
is GOOD NEWS FROM SCRANTON

our waters was the wreck of the
steamship, British King, off Sable
Isand, March Il, on her way from
New York to Antwerp. At least 20
lives were lost. The winters list of
wrecks began in November, with the
sinking of the Norwegian steamer
Turbin, in sight of Clark's Harbor,
N. S. Fourteen men down with the
Turbin. A fortnight later the British
steamer, Lunen berg, sunk few min
utes after striking a rock off the Mag
dalen Islands, resulting~jn the loss of
dozen lives and the cargo From
then until the end of March there was
hardly a week without its shipwreck.
These and more serious steamer
wrecks in the English channel have
impressed upon underwriters the
necessity for more effective measures
to prevent the sinking of vessels
whose water tight compartments are
supposed to but do> not insure them
against loss from ordinary punctures
of the hull. Water tight bulk heads
only make a ship unsinkable when all
the doors below the water line are
closed. In most disasters at sea the
doors cannot be closed by hand and
there is an increasing demand for the
more general adoption of power bulk
head doors. With this arrangement
the doors can be closed from above
decks in time of danger merely by
the turn of hand wheel. Without
these long arm electrical power doors
the closing of the bulk head openings
| is left to the crew, whose first idea IL
/ to get on deck as soon as possible
1t is fair estimate, experts say, tina
not one out of fifty vessels that are
now lost at sea would go down if the!
had the means of quicksly CLOSING
their water tight doors that the nav!
department is putting on all the neV
United States waTships.

The survey covers all of the
state swamp lands, and as the
work is completed, the matter
of compiling reports will be the
main work from now on. Half OF
the ground has been. covered IN
the reports which will be OF the
greatest value for the future
work. The work that has been
carried on this winter is merely
preliminary to that which is de-.
sired to be accomplished, that OF
draining the state lands.
When funds have been appro-

throughout the state, as the value
of lands will then be raised many
