a constant pressure on the market.

TO CONVERT

General Booth Vows to Make
Ruler Of Japan a Christian
Goes About Doing Good.

NEW YORK. March EN- route to
Japan to try TO convert the Japanese
emperor aud with the avowed inter-
tion of telling the nikado that his re-
ligious beliefs are all wrong, General
William Booth, commander in chief OF
the Salvation Army, was interviewed
here
one OF the first things that the vet
eraq soul saver said was that lie was
on his farewell trip and that he never
again expected TO leave England when
he returned to London in July.
He explained that he was approach.
ing his seventy birthday and
that he thought that the strenuosity OF
the Salvation Army life required him
to slow down.
But | am not going to retire" added
the general, with a wave of his hand
'There is a great deal of work left in
me. can assure you"
Il want $5,000,00O for my work. but
/ am not going 10 beg for it," General
Booth said. Il am looking for a man
to come along and take me by the
hand and say, Look here. general, take
me into partnership in this good
work."
II want to complete experiments of
placing the people in possession of
small holdings and to prove that the
people can be taken back to the land
and made to support themselves.
MY plan is this: Give a man five or
six acres near n market town and am
satisfied that the average man can
support himself and family from the
product of that land. | have tract
of land at Colchester. England, and it
has been Il glorious success. Recently
we were given 100000 to go on with
the work
Il have in view Il plan for colonial
tion on giant scale, say in Rhodesia,
central South Africa. No more immi
grants are required in the United
States, and we expect to divert emigra-
ton from the old country into the
heart of Africa"
would you accept any money from
John ID. Rockefeller" some one asked
the general, "or do you regard it as
tainted money!
Il would take anything. and l would
wash ii in the tears of the widows and
orphans. | would lay it Oh the altar of
benevolent effort for the good of the
cause.
Il have never seen Mr.. Carnegie.
have never approached him in any
way. / should have thought that the
work of the Salvation Army would
have commended itself TO Mr. Carnegie
But MI Carnegie says: 1 cannot spend
my money on people who are down.
will help those who want to get up
hold that the time 10 help q man is
when he is going down. You would be
surprised at the beautiful people who
are down"

HAND LINES CLASH
WITH POUND NETS.
Legislative Committee Hears Advo-
Gates of Each--Professional Fish
ermen Plea for Their Livelihood.

TRENTON, Mar. "a large dele
CATION of pound net men from the
vicinity of Raritan and Sandy Hook
bays were given hearing yesterday
by the game and fisheries committee
on bill No. 159, which prohibits
pound net fishing during, June, July,
August, September and October in
those waters.
The pound net men opposed the
bill with vim They maintained
that if the bill was passed they would
almost go bankrupt. They said that
they could not help what prices the
dealers charged for the fish, because
they only got a comparatively small
amount for the fish they caught.
William B. Brown and Frederick
Felzer, of Newark, explained the rea-
son why il was desired on the part of
the handline men that the bill should
be enacted into a law. They said that
the pound nets were maintained dur
ing the spawning season, to the, hind
rance of the propagation OF the hsh'
It was also. stated that large storage
houses are maintained, in which >
much larger proportion OF the iisb
caught perish than is sold In the mar
kelS. MS was uOuet IL was Solu, "
keep up the price of fish.
The pound net men replied that
they could not be blamed for such
conditions if they existed. The mer-
chants from Fulton Market have
charge of those houses, not the fish
ermen, it was said, and they pleaded
that the bill be not reported.
The twenty-five members OF the
Essex County Fish and Game Pro
tectiye Association, who were present
at the hearing in the interest of the
handline fishermen, said afterward
that the bill should be passed. Every
time we find a hole. said one OF
the members, shortly afterward we
find pound net there
A hearing in the same bill will be
given the pound net men next Tues
day morning
