He said he would consider the matter but
at noon, after an hours study had not
been able to formulate an opinion. Lieu
tenant Governor McGilton, who is u candi-
date for governor, conferred with Mr.. Web
ster for half an hour regarding the point
Mr. Webster said the question was one not
at all easy of solution and admits of much
argument from both sides. 1t was too
complex, he stated, TO venture an offhand
opinion upon 1t. He intends to go into 1t
further and endeavor 10 reach a satisfac-
tory conclusion.
Il have not given the matter any par
ticular attention and am not prepared to
make any statement or offer an opinion
in which l would care to be quoted in
reference thereto" said Judge Munger
1T does appear to me- however, at first
glance, that the constitutional provision
is sufficient TO govern the case, which pro-
VIdes that no executive officer shall be
eligible to any other office during the
period for which he is elected. Hence, I
do not see how they can get around It. l
do not think that resignation would be
sufficient, as the official being elected for
specific term, means the whole term.
However, II is matter that can only be
determined by recourse TO the supreme
court"

In the building Of the tunnel under
the East River a number of men have
died from the sO-called caisson disease
or what more graphically has been de-
scribed as the bends" When the
disease is fatal death follows quickly
upon the attack, and the sufferings of
the victim are intense.
The fear of the bends" however. has
not deferred men who must have
known themselves unfit for the work
from taking employment in the com
pressed atmosphere Of the caisson. All
applicants now are examined by ply
sicians, and none but robust men are
set to work, but it is thought that
some Of the men who passed the physi-

take the chance of rejection involved
in an examination. but who presented
the certificates which they had obtained
improperly and received employment.

BY the tremendous undertaking Of
eXpending S16t 900, 900 for more water
for Greater New York, many curious
geological features have been discov-
cred in the Catskll mountains and
between there and the Metropolis.
In report one of the engineers OF
the new bCurd of water supply has
made. James +. Sanhorn writes some
interesting matter in which he tells
of the Atlantic coast sinking, Of Coney
islands eventual wiping out. of the III
innate submersion OF the statue of Ii
berty and of New York, or Manhattan
island. once having been mountain
but that was aeons Cf ages ago.
In telling of the Hudson river itself
Mr.. Sanburn makes some very inter-
esting remarks He says the Hudson
is a drowned river. as John Burroughs
called il. and that the sea actually
stretches back $50 miles to Albany,
the river being but an arm Of the
sea. This mred Hendrix Hudson on
ward in 1909 10 fancied short cut
TO the Arctic seas.
"Why does the sea stray so far
between the mountains?' Mr. San
born asks. Because the Atlantic
coast Is sinking. Indeed. some say
the sea floor is sinking as well. Those
who keep watch OF the tide cages
along the shore from Boston to- Key
West estimate this rate of settling at
n foot In 100 years. We feel content
that Il Is no fastsi. but Just as surely
will Coney island be drowned out some
day and the statue OF Liberty entirely
submerged"
Just how many years the people have
left to enjoy the delights OF Coney
island Mr.. Sanborn does not estimate.
He says that sfrom geological find
inss we are led 10 believe that Man
haitian was formerly a mountain top,
as high. az least. as the Kaaterskill
for soundings have been made which
show the Hudson river did not end

The variety Of the work" he said,

William H. Sayward submitted TO the
Boston associated board Of trade at it's
annual meeting recently a suggestion
for a strong central organization to
boom Boston, which will be discussed
and considered by local trade associa-
tions during the next few months. Mr.
Sayward reported the advisability Of
rcorganiZing the board Of trade into
an association which would WELD an
influence upon all questions affecting
the prosperity Of the city.
At this time, he said, Boston is
Obliged TO compete with cities where
the business interests are thoroughly
organized. and while at present il has
a number of trade organizations, 1t
lacks an effective central body. He pro-
posed TO change the Boston associated
board Of trade into a representative
body, instead of a delegate body, as at
present. and admit members of every
trade and business organization as in
dividuals
Henry f. Miller, treasurer Of the as
sociatcd board of trade, enthusiastical-
Iy indorsed the idea lie said it was
an opportunity for the business men
To enlarge their sphere Of action. Bos-
ton needed a strong central organi2a-
ton working for the enlargement of
the business of the city, Mr. Miller ar
gucd. other cities were showing en-
terprisC which Boston failed to encOur-
age, and he said this city must adopt
some measures to hold its own with
other business communities.
The board of trade authorized the
appointment Of committee to conSid-
or the question and make report, as
it Was suggested such prcject should
NE Investigated and considered in
every aspect before any recommends
ton was acted upon.

The recent advance in price Of raw
SILK seems TO bessustsined, and what
nation OF silk weayers we have be-
come! During the past 80 years the
worlds production OF silk has doubled,
and yet prices go up The use Of silk
has increased with the facility OF
weaving. due 10 the broad power looms
now in use, the present number being
$4,000, which is an increase OF nearly
so percent in five years and under such
conditions the advance seems very ma
tural. How strange II seems that all
this silk is the product Of a caterpil-
lar-the only one out OF six hundred
varieties that is really useful.
