REMARKABLE WRECKlNG.
Compressed Aid Aids in Salvage OF
Valuable Steamship.
Technical WORLDLY


Experience gained in the tunnels of New
York enabled two young American engi-
neers to achieve one of the most re-
markable featS in the annals of wreck
ing last April on the coast of Nova Scotia
This was the salvage of the fine 9000-ton
steamship Mount Temple. valued at $780,
900. at an outlay of only $4,000, after il
had been abandoned as hopelessly lost
Indeed, after the vessel had been placed in
dry dock it was found TO be so fearfully
battered and torn that the cost of repairs
was estimated at more than half the value
of the ship, so the owners wanted it con-
demned The feat called for daring as well
as ingenuity, for there was nothing be-
tween us and England as one of the men
on the job expressed it. which was his way
of SAYING that the wreck was exposed to
the full fury of the Atlantic
At first glance there would seem to be no
connection between wrecking and tunnel
building. vet it was the expert use of the
one thing that made the digging of the
tunnels under the Hudson and East river
possible that flOated the Mount Temple,
and that one thing was compressed air.
The achievement is all the more interest
ing because il was the second time the
same men had saved wreck by the same
means after all the eXpedients known in
the salvage business had been tried in
vain

MERELY LOOKING ON.
United States Has an Understanding
With Holland.

Washington, Dec. 15.-The existence
OF what amounts practically TO a safe
of war between Holland and Venezuela
the absence for the first time in many
years in an acute crisis of this kind of
American warships from their proper
sphere of influence. and the profession
of the state department officials of their
ignorance of the intentions of Holland
constitute most curious and interest
ing international situation. The fact
that America has a quarrel of her own
with Venezuela and has determined di-
plomatic relations with that country,
gives rise to doubt as to the accuracy
of the statement that this government
is not interested in what is going on
off the coast of Venezuela. Indeed,
there is reason to believe that while Of
fetal records may fail to show the ex-
istence of any formal agreement be-
tween America and The Netherlands,
the government of the latter country is
proceeding with the tacit consent of
America to bring to an end the chaotic
conditions that have prevailed in an in
ternatiOnal sense in Venezuela for the
past two wears

knows of no objections to the acceptance

Bushnell was the result In any event
Glasmann insists that he is through with
politics and that he will in the future de-

Archbold, as requested, made a search
for the book showing the transfers of
stock interests of the companies inter-

and that such records as had been
found were at the disposal of the gov
eminent Taking up these companies
one by one, Mr.. Rosenthal read the re-
cords showing the ownership of stock

PRICE WANTS TO BE SHOWN.
Man Who Got $2,41O in Newspaper
Has Best of Argument.

Notwithstanding the reports sent out
from Portland to the effect that the
money wrapped in newspaper received
through the mails by Charles Price OF
Five Points. a few days ago. was a por-
ton of large sum stolen from a bank
in that city, the local authorities are
skeptical about the Portland people being
able to identify the currency. So far
nothing further has developed than the
fact that among the money taken from
the Portland Institution were bills of the
denomination of those received by Price
Ii is held that this in itself is not suf-
ficient TO prove that this particular cur
rency was part of that taken from the
Portland bank. While Mr.. Price states
he is willing to give up the money if il
can be proven whence it came. he is not
willing to let go of it unless the proof is
