NO LOCAL OPTION
VOTE THIS FALL
The Anti-SalOOn League Will
Postpone Fight
Several Reasons Advanced and Opin-
ion is Unanimously Expressed
at Meeting.
TO AWAIT MORE LEGISLATION

Placing their faith in the next state
legislatures actions on the county
unit bill, and concluding that they
are at present unprepared to precipi-
tate a local option fight in Paducah,
the members of the Anti-Saloon
league met at the court house Sun
day afternoon at O'Clock and adopt
ed resolutions. embodying their
views on the local situation. One inn
portant step taken was the appoint
ment of a committee to wait on the
Republican and Democratic candi-
dates for the state legislature. to
secure expressions from them on
their attitude toward the county unit
bill. 1t is desired by the prohibition
forces to extend this law to include
at least every city in the state except
Louisville They point in their resolu-
lions. to the attitude taken by both
political parties in the state, saying
the Republican party is committed to
the enlargement of the bill and that
the Democratic leaders have spoken
in its favor.
Some of the reasons for defenins
the election as given yesterday, were;
lack of time, lack Of an efficient or
ganization, lack of funds to prose
cute the work, and the realization
that a campaign of education extend
ing over several months, must be un
dertaken. President E. w. Bagb,
presided at yesterdays meeting ant
the report of James Roger, E. e
Bell, C. w. Morrison, b. 3. Breendei
and ]. e. Potter, the committee ap
pointed to set date for vote, wa
concurred in. They advised the post
ponement until next spring.
There was some opposition to de
ferring the vote, both on the com
lmittee and in the meeting yesterday
but the majority sentiment passe'
the resolutions.

10000 FEET OF
GAS ESCAPING
Engineers of Lighting COm-

Search For Leak at Tenth
and Madison Streets
KEPT THEM BUSY ALL NIGHT

Engineers at the gas plant of the
Paducah Light and Power company
on North Third street, were alarmed
last night by the rapid consumption
of gas in the heart of the nighti The
consumption was altogether unusual
and in a volume that was rapidly ex-
hausting the supply. The superin-
tendent was brought out of bed at 2
O'Clock this morning to take charge
of the situation and the search for
the cause was started with the whole
city in front of them and without any
clew. 1t was suspected that the
trouble might be found somewhere
In the city where excayatlng had
been going on, and these places we're
visited first. The trouble at length
was found on Madison street between
Ninth and Tenth streets where the
Icofin and bones were found last
week The ditch had caved in falling
on a 4-inch main of the gas company
and breaking it. Before the leak
was stopped 10000 feet of gas had
escaped. This would be enough tc
run 500 families for one day.

AMSTERDAM, Jan. 2o.-The Red
Star line steamer Vaderland arrived
here this afternoon.
The Associated Press correspondent
learned from the captain that his ship
was steaming at half speed at 2:30
Saturday morning when suddenly she
found herself upon the Haworth Castle.
Tt was too late to go about, and the
Vaderland struck the Haworth Castle.
The Vaderland kept her nose in the
breach made in the impact and in or
der to facilitate life saving three lad
ders were thrown over the Vaderland's s
bows. BY these the crew of the
Haworth Castle climbed aboard. Stew
ard Parkinson was Imprisoned in the
cabin. Engineer Lowe was killed by
escaping steam. Several of the Vader-
lands passengers came on deck twenty
minutes after the accident occurred,
but were only in time to see the
Haworth Castle sink.
Captain Whitten of the Haworth
Castle said the Vaderland's officers did
everything possible. Several other sur
vivors think the density of the fog
rendered the accident unavoidable.
