GIVES SERMON
ON PAVEMENTS
Rev. Mr.. Goshen Addresses
Council Committee in Fa-
Vor of Macadam.
ARGUES AGAINST ASPHALT
SPEAKS FOR PROPERTY OWN
ERS ON EAST FIRST SOUTH.

Rev. Elmer |. Goshen showed the mem
bers Of the streets committee of the city
council last evening that he knew some
thing about other things as well as
preaching the gospel He appeared be-
fore the committee representing a large
number of property holders on East First
South. on which the First CONGREGATIONAL
church is located. On their behalf he
uttered a vigorous protest against the
proposition to pave that street from Sec
ond East to Thirteenth East with asphalt
He asserted that he had majority of
property holders at his back. though the
petition he presented showed "A little over
third. He said that he anticipated no
difficulty in getting more than enough
sigEers to make up the majority
Mr.. Goshen said that those protesting
are not doing so in the hopes of getting
a cheaper pavement. That is not wanted.
The desire of those who own property
on that street is to get the very best
pavement to be had. All with whom he
had talked decidedly favored a superior
macadamizng. They do not want
such macadam as was laid on State
street, but q, pavement laid with con-
crete base and with an oil dressing. This
would cost about the same as macadam
but would be nOiseless and free from
| dust.
Objects to Noise.
There is, he said, no more noisy pave
| ment than asphalt. There is long
] stretch in front of St Mary's hospital
! and IL would be nothing short of Grim
/ ina TO put noisy pavement in front
| OF a hospital. he asserted. He said he
had gone into the question of street paw
| ing during his vacations the last three
/ summers. and had found i'm every city
! he visited that asphalt pavements were
/ being taken up and a superior macadam
with a concrete base and laid in oil put
down. In support of his contention he
/ cited the cities of Denver Chicago, Buff
/ falo. Boston and many others.
Take Issue With Him.
| A. f. Doremus. who is property own
/ er on First South. was inclined to take
| issue with Mr.. Goshen but was willing
| 10 go into the question with him. He

! Goshen would have gotten fewer signers

which they were asking would be cheaper
As a matter of fact. the cost would be

Scenes at the Morgues.

The stream of persons passing through
the morgue looking for missing relatives
or friends did not cease until after mid
night and at that time thirty-eight of
the dead had been identified. Many
persons were early on hand to file once
more between the long lines of dead, and
every train brought more people upon
the mournful quest.
The survivors at Block Island are re-
ported "as well as could be expected"
The weather has moderated this morn
ing and was clear and mild. Under these
conditions there was little expectation of
more bodies washing ashore today.

Reasons for Organization.

I'VE must face the fact that there yet
remains IN the mind of many a question
as to the reason for the existence of
trade organizations such the Western
association. 1t is right here that we
find n difference of opinion among aSSO-
citation authorities and this difference of
opinion resolves itself into this: to what
extent can we properly permit our trade
organizations TO go in an effort to serve
its members. and what can be the de-
clared policy OF our own particular trade
unions? With due allowance for the real
and our organization. there has been a
disposition on the part OF some of our
sister associations 10 adopt as policy
a strict agreement TO endeavOr TO cOnfine
the handling of lumber at retail to the
dealer who engages or may engage in the
retail business. Others of the retail as

DEATH BY FREEZING.
None of the Victims of the Larch.
mont Disaster Drowned.

Providence r. l.. Feb. IA new ele-
ment was injected into the horror at
tending the loss of the steamer Larch-
mont i'm Block Island sound Monday
through a collision with the schooner
Harry KnowltOn, when Captain McVey
of the steamer early today admitted
that his lifeboat was one of the first, if
not the first TO leave the sinking ship.
This statement was made in reply to
charges by Fred Hiergsell. an 1S-year-Old
lad of Brooklyn, one of the survivors.
that the passengers were left to shift for
themselves; that the ships crew crowded
the boats without attempting TO provide
for the passengers. and that Captain Nc
Vey was the first TO desert the ship. The
statement of the boy created a sensation
in view of the fact that ten of the sur
vivors were employees upon the ship, or
in other words. that while 20 per cent OF
the crew was saved. only per cent OF
the passengers survived.

Lumber Trust Impossible. f"

Those of us who know by constant
association with the facts of our bust
ness that there is not, and there cannot
be a lumber trust are not fearing the
results of the most searching investiga-
ton. Unfortunately. however. the mer-
est shadow. the slightest semblance. even
the atmosphere surrounding an ordinary
trade organization brings from some
quarter violent denunciation. In all this
excitement methods have been adopted
and tactics pursued by some legislators.
calculated to put beyond the law the
most innocent trade organizations
founded for the best Of purposes and in
tended only through education and en-
lightenment of the trade in general 10
thereby lift and strengthen the sOundest
economic and commercial conduct of our
business.
And so 1 say confronted with this
condition of affairs, this past year has
been a season for elaboration on the
part of your officers ana directors. We
have felt that the great good which this
association can probably perform along
educative lines in making the members
better merchants and hence better citi-
zens has justified the forfeiting of what
may TO some appear fair and Justifiable
exercise of privileges by which a trade
organization always ehdeavOrs to increase
the membership.

McVey's Explanation.

Captain McVey explained that while
his boat may have been the first in the
water it was because he had good crew
and that he remained by the ship until
il went down. He said that he made no
move to get into his boat until he had
given orders to his men to lower all the
boats and clear away the RATS. While
his boat was in the water il was fast
ened to the ship by rope in the running
gear that had become caught and this
was cut by Boatswain Tobeson, who saw
that with the ship settling rapidly the
boat and its occupants would be caught
in the whirlpool and sucked beneath the
surface The captains boat was on the
windward side and he said he called to
the passengers 10 jump. as it would hold
about twenty-five persons in all. but the
electric lights had been extinguished and
in the darkness and confusion none heed
ed his summons. Everybody was on the
leeward side and he ordered his men to
row around there, he claims. but the gale
baked his plan and as the boat was driv-
en- away from the steamer his men had
to give up their task and crouch in the
bottom of the boat out of the way of the
piprcinQ wind

MerriIl's Annual Address.

Gentlemen Of the Western Association:
Fortunately for your presiding officer,
lumbermen are as a rule very practical
little given 10 fine words and flights OF
oratory. and more appreciative of state
ments of plain facts.
Therefore in what / have to say to
YOU on this occasion. YOU are 10 expect
the plain and straightforward statement
rather than the pretty phrase 1t is safe
to say that the past year has brought to
us as individual dealers a reasonable
measure of prosperity.
THE very fact of the existence Of this
prosperity accounts TO an extent for the
comparative inactivity of this western
association along certain lines in which
i'm some years past a great deal of en-
ergy has been expended.

Majority Will Be Elected.


The bill of which Mr.. BfrreH has Civ
en- notice will provide for a council in
which the elective element will predom-
mate. A number of nominative mem
berS are retained in order to placate the
liberals, who are opposed to an entirely
representative body. 1t is understood
also that this council will have extern
sive administrative powers, but it's right
to legislate will be limited.
This feature has been accepted by
the Irish leaders. Nothing definite is
known as TO the amount of financial
control to be entrusted to the council,
but to satisfy Irishmen this will have
to be large. There is no doubt that the
powers now centered in numerous
boards controlling the administration of
Ireland will be handed over to the coun-
Gil.
The measure was a subject of much
speculation in the lObbies of the house
of commons tonight. A large majority
Of the members are ignorant Of the in

Case Of EVicted Tenants.
Speaking in the house this evening.
Mr. Birrell said the question of the res
toration of evicted tenants to their
homes was of primary importance, and
brooked no delay. He referred to the
action of Lord Clanricarde in refusing
to reinstate the tenants on his estates,
and limited that it would be quite justi-
fable to take over the administration
of these estates. In conclusion, the
chief secretary for Ireland pledged the
government to take effective measures
to secure the reinstatement of evicted
tenants.
The house then discussed an amend
ment in favor OF reinstating tenants
who had been evicted. Mr.. Birrell
spoke again and promised measures
satisfactory TO the Irish party. He then
made the actual announcement of his
intention to introduce bill to deprive
Lord Clanticarde of the management
of his Irish estates on the ground OF
his Iordship's incompetency, and tC
hand over the management to COM
mission appointed especially for that
nurpose. which would act for the best
interests of the landlord. the tenants
and Ireland itself.
Clanricarde Denounced.
Mr.. Birrell used the strongest Ian
guage in describing Lord Clanricarde's
mismanagement, declaring it, among
other things. TO be shocking"
| Walter Long, speaking on be-
| half of the Irish UniOnists, approved
Mr.. Birrells attitude and said he hoped
il would induce Lord Clanricarde to be-
stir himself and obviate the need OF
such special measure.

By Mail Fro m He'll.

James Wight, Of Rockland, re-
ceiyed last week a letter plainly
postmarked "Hell." 1t was some
thing new to him, as it will be to
the reader, that the place indicated
is within the jurisdiction of the
Postal Union, and he had some Gu
riosity as to the geographical loca-
ton of it. The letter did not smell
of birthstone, nor was there any,
thing uncanny about it, save the
postmark. Opening it, he found
that the letter was written by a
friend who was an assistant surgeon
in the United States Navy on one
of the warships that visited Rock
land some time since, when the ac-
uuaintance was found and written
in Norway. In the Norwegian Ian
guage there is nothing inferna
about hell, and it probably never
