Speech Of Railroad Wizard Is
Feature of Second Days
Conference Of Governors and
Public Men at White HOus O.

Washington, May thames J.
, Hill, the railroad wizard. was the
principal speaker at the second days
session OF the governors conference
at the white house. He discussed the
natural wealth of land and its con-
servation.
Mr.. Hill said
! Two years ago. In an address de-
'livered before the meeting of the
Minnesota State Agricultural society,
at st. Paul. I reviewed the practical
consequences and the statistical proof
of that national wastefulness which
competent scientific authority had
already set down as distinguishing
the American people. From data OF
the highest certainty. no one of which
has ever been called in question, 7

certain TO arise within the next half
century. when the population OF this
country VIII have grown to more
than 200.OO0.0O0 The facts were
pointed out not In the spirit of the
alarmist. but In order that attention
might be directed TO the WAY by
which the nation may escape future
disaster SO rapidly do events move

test. under seal of the highest au-

The Waste.
"'Of all the sinful MASTERS of
mans inheritance on earth said the
late Professor Shaler. and all are In
/ this regard sinners, the very worst
are the people OF America This is
not popular phrase. but a scientific
Judgment. II is borne out by facts
III we fail to consider what we po,
sess Of wealth available for the uses
OF mankind. and to what extent we
are wasting a national patrimony that
can never be restored, We might be
likened to the directors of a company
who never examine balance sheet.
"The sum of resources Is simple
and fixed. From the sea, the mine.
the forest and the soil must be gath
cred everything that can sustain the
life OF man. Upon the wealth that
these supply must be conditioned for
ever. as far as We can see, not only |
his progress but his continued exist |
.ence on earth.
"Our supply of some varieties will |
be practically exhausted in 10 or ~ |
years: in the case of others. without
reforesting, the present century will
see the end. When will we take up |
in a practical and intelligent way the
restoration OF our forests?
stFrba moot yay,,ohia ,.ga,. tha
situation forces the conclusion that
iron and coal will not be available
for common use on anything like
present terms before the end of this
century: and our Industrial. social
and political life must be readjusted
to meet the strains imposed by new
conditions.
The Soil Itself.

ing resource OF man upon this earth,
which is the soil itself How are we
caring for that. and what possibilities
does II hold out to the people OF
future support? We are only begin
ming to feel the pressure upon the
land, The whole interior OF this con-
tinent. aggregating more than 50,-
900, 900 acres. has been occupied by
settlers within the last so years.
What is there left for the next so
years? Excluding arid and irrigible
areas, the latter limited by nature,
and barely enough OF which could be
made habitable in each year to fur
nish a farm for each immigrant fam
lily. the case stands as follows. In

FoUR-MASTER ACME CAST ON
BEAM ENDS AT SEA.
Yards Trailed in Water on Trip From
Japan-On Keel When
Masts Cut Away.

NEW YORK. August 11.-Deep laden
with Oregon pine the fOur-masted steel
bark Acme. an American ship with an
American crew. arrived here yesterday
after voyage of III days from Portland,
Ore The trip was repete wit, incidents.
The stirring time for those on board real
Nv began on the trip from Kobe. Japan,
| to Portland, where she went to load for
this port.
For seven days the vessel rode a ter
rife sea practically on her beam ends,
with her crew working like mad between
decks shifting ballast to bring the Acme
back to an even keel SO far over did she
so that her main and lower topsail
yardarns dragged in the sea 1t was
seven days before the crew got the vessel
back to an even keel again. To get her
there Capt. 4. +. Mckay was obliged
TO have the crew chop away the stand
ing rigging of the fore. main and miZZen
topgalant masts with their yarus. The
Acme carried some ZOO tons OF sand bal
last, which was supposed to be enough TO
keep her on her legs
Cant Mckay saws that she was only
four days out of Kobe when the wind be-
gan to blow and the sea became rough
and choppy The fifth day found the
vessel under shortened sails About noon
of that day the storm subsidized and it be-
came almost dead Calm.s Then suddenly
there came a northeast sduall that stirred
up tremendous seas. Then came heavy
sea that threw the Acme over on her star
board side. Seas broke on her with ter
rifle force. smashing deck fixtures and
running gear. For seven days the crew
shifted ballast until they righted her. The
men slept on the ballast and ate canned
food Another danger narrowly escaped
was when the ship passed within a few
feet of floating mine astray IN Japanese
waters.
The Acme's time in making the trip
from the Pacific. said Capt. Mckay.
might be marked by moons. for they
sailed under five full moons on the way
around. Thirteen days was spent round
ing the Horn. The extremity of South
America was hidden all the time in
dense fog.
The Acme is 3.oSS tons, one of the big
gest sailing ships under the American
flag. Her crew is American, many of
them having gone to San Francisco to
help rebuild that city. They shipped to
get east.

PASSING OF MRS. LOUISE CHAND-
LER MOULTON AT BOSTON.

BOSTON. August 11.-Mrs Louise
Chandler Moulton. the we'll known au-
thoress, died at her home here yesterday
after an illness of nearly nine months.
Mrs Moulton was born April 10, 1885,
at Pomfret, Conn, and was a daughter
of Lucius and Louisa Clark Chandler,
both of, whom came of old New England
stock, and both of whom probably trans
mitted to their daughter that love of lit
erary pursuits which seems to be born in
many cultured people in those states.
After receiving the education usually
given New England girl of some means
she spent some time in society IN her ma
tive state. and in Boston in 1860 she mar
red William u. Moulton, who died in
1888.
A year before her marriage to Mr..
Moulton however, she had launched in a
formal manner her literary career: In
1854 her first book, This, That and the
Other" was published, and it was not
long until the young authoress was recog-
nized as possessing more than ordinary
promise.
After her husbands death Mrs. Moulton
turned her whole attention to writing. In
the years that have interviewed since her
first book was published she wrote many
novels. edited quite a worthy number of
other works and engaged in literary re-
view work for at least two newspapers.
Some of her best known books are
Random Rambles.' ''Firelight Stories,'
I'm the Garden of Dreams and Lazy
Tours in Spain and Elsewhere" Many
short stories by Mrs. Moulton have ap-
peared also in the leading magazines of
this country.
