exists for the latter as compared with man who has received all his train ing in shop. A few years later, R. T. Crane, who is something of an lconocIast, as far as things education al are concerned, made vigorous attack on college trained men, giving as his view that the time spent in col lege is wasted, and that a man might better spend his time in the shop. MT Cranes opinions were at vari- ance with those of most of the men qualified to speak on the subject and a rather spirited debate ensued in the columns of the technical and daily press, Mir Crane based his assump- tionS on the experience he had with the men in his factories, and Mir Dodge likewise drew on the records of his own shops for his facts. Prof tNrman gives the opinions of the leading graduates of the institution in question on the value of the train ing they received in college. With
 
 high testimonial to the education they received. It Is conclusively proved by many other papers and records heretofore published that it will not do to belittle the value of technical training. The college edu- cated man has come to stay, and, while. in the future, many men not SO trained may be found in high po- sitions, the great majority of these positions will be filled by men who have passed through the college or technical school. Those that contend otherwise will speak from :heir ig- norance and not from their knnwl- edge,

The tariff committee has announc- ed a further continuance of it's hear lngs. There is no telling just what kind of a tariff bill will be presented, much less what kind of bill will be passed after it has been debated and amended, but there is strong hope among tariff refOrmers that there will be large additions to the free list in the way of raw material, such as wool, hides, lumber and coal. It is well known, says one writer, that We cannot have the best woolen fab rics made in this country because the finest t1eeces of Australia and South America go to the looms of England and Germany and France. while American manufacturers on ac- count of high tariff, are obliged to eke out their scanty supply of wool With cotton and shOddv.

There have been two events this week, one of national and the other of international importance. The first was the placing of over fifteen thousand postmasters of the fourth class under the aegi5 of civil service rules. The other was the signing of an agreement between Japan and the United States by Secretary Root and the Japanese ambassador to the United States, says a Washington writer. Calling it an agreement or as some call it a declaration. ." was a polite way of sidestepping the senate, because the senate, 2s past eX- perience has demonstrated, is rabid on treaties and very jealous Of it's prerOgatiye.

Hartford Officials Plan City Baseball

Hartford, Aug 1S.-At q meeting in the council chamber in city hall last evening, the members of the various committees making arrangements for the return baseball game between the officials of this city and the city faith CTS of New Haven changed the date of the game from September 16 as previ- ously set, to Thursday September F, in order not to have 1t conflict with the democratic state convention which will be held September l6.

In the harbor and then with great dit- ficulty, at high tide.
 Under these conditions, according to Major Taylor, 1t hardly seemed ad- vlsabe to spend a large sum of money deepening the main channel from 20 to 25 feet, Moreover, further Inquiry developed the fact that other i'm provements were more necessary for New Haven harbor than deepening the main channel These improve ments are; First, widening the main channel from TomlInson bridge down for distance of about 5000 feet, thus cutting off the bend at that point and increasing the width opposite the docks so as to give better en- trance to the slips and provide more room for vessels tying up at the end of the slips, as well as to give the fec a freer outlet and to straighten out the currents; second, deepening the f2 feet anchorage basin 1b feet; and, third. dredging a channel 100 feet wide and feet deep from the 12foot anchorage basin to the east of Canal dock up to near Brewery street,
 "The estimated cost of deepening the main channel from 20 feet, con tinued the major. the present depth to 25 feet is s325,000; the estimated cost of widening the main channel Is $192,750; of deepening the 12-foot anchorage bason, s22,950, and of dredging the channel to the east of Canal dock, s7s00--or total of $223,500 for the three last improve ments. which Is Sl01.50o less than the cost of deepening the main chan nel. Therefore, in my report of the survey recommended that the last three Improvements be made but that the main channel be not deepened."
 Major Taylor then spoke of the hearing to be held on Friday and stated that while oral statements are of value. the board desires that im- portant facts and statistics should be submitted in writing in order that they may be of record in accordance with law

The depths in the 16-foot anchorage basins show little deterioration, and the greater part of the 12-foot anchorage basin is still of full depth, although shoaling has taken place in the ex- treme northeast corner.
 The survey also developed the fact that the depths along the wharves were generally very much less than the depth in the main channel, the deepest slip in the harbor being along the westerly side of Pocket Dock where the limiting depth is approximately F feet. The other docks show much less than r feet alongside. In other words, by taking advantage of the tide ves- sells drawing up to 2i feet can be brought up through the channel as It now exists, but vessels drawing 21 feet or more can only be docked at one dock

Birthday Today.

Fred A Busse, the present mayor of
Chicago, was born in that city, March
9. 1866, and received his education in
the public schools. At an early age
he showed great aptitude for business,
and before he was thirty was well on
the road to financial success. His
principal interests were in the trans
fer and coal business, which he con-
Quoted on large scale Becoming in
terested in the republican politics of
the city he was elected deputy sher-
iff, after serving one term as court
bailiff. In 1896 he was sent to the
Illinois legislature and two years later
was reelected As a reward for his
work in the legislature he was elected
state treasurer on the republican tick
ct. President Roosevelt, in 1905,
placed him at the head of the Chicago
postofifce, which position he held until
elected to the mayors office.
