is cramped for room and it is 20 provide
better accommodations for him that the
improvements are to be made this sum-

Mr.. HASTINGS
DIDN'T DEBATE
Because of His appointment
as Judge he Didn't Make
Political Speech

The effect Of Governor Pennewllrs ap-
pontment of a new judiciary has been
varied Not only has it eliminated the
.judgesniths," created postmaster
smiths" and bestirred the politicians, but
it spoiled the careful plans of Whining
ton Lodge of Machinists to have secre-I
tary Of state Daniel o. Hastings address
the members and their friends last night
On why a Workingmsn should support
the Republican Party" As secretary Of
state. Mr. Hastings had no hesitation
about accepting the machinists' invita-
ton to speak, but as a member of the new
bench. he evidently found the situation
rather delicate one. and yesterday he sent
a diplomatic letter OF regret to J. Frank
smith. chairman OF the committee Of ar
rangements. AS no other speaker had been
selected. the machinists were not told why
they should support the Republican party.
As matters now stand, the Democratic
and the Socialist parties will be the only
ones heard since the only speakers ar
ranged for besides Mr.. Hastings had
been John L. -Malloy, representing the
Democratic party, and Charles II. Sehl,
the Socialist party Mr. Malloy was to
have spoken on May q. and Mr.. sehl on
June 3. on June 10 Mr.. Hastings, Mr.
Malloy and Mr. sehl were to have debat-
ed The machinists will probably have the
Republican address on June 10, and ar
range for the debate the week after.
Mr.. Hastings letter was as follows:

doubtedly aware 1 had agreed to make an
address before your lodge this evening.

ST. JOHNS. n. r., May 21-The big
liner Mongolian has broken away
through the ice fields in which she has
been caught for several days and Is
now making for the Bay of Bulls where
she will take refuge until the ice
blocade is raised. Bay of Bulls Is
twenty miles south of this point.
Last night was an anxious one for
those on board of the Mongolian. The
ice was gathered even heavier than
when she was first engulfed, and as
day broke II was plain that a snow
storm was imminent. The wind, too,
was changing so that it was almost
directly inshore and Captain williams
signalled that he would try to break
through the ice, to the southwark,
where it seemed TO be less heavy.
Steam was made and the attempt be-
gun. Large crowds gathered on the
banks here, watching the effort, which
was most exciting. First the Mongol-
ian would go ahead until her nose was
pushed several feet into the massed
ice foes. Then she she would be
moved backward until she was again in
the clear water. While this was going
on the ice-breaker, Diana, which had
struggled all night to reach the Mon
golian. worked into a position directly
south Of the Mongolian and she also
buclSed the fields in the attempt tC

The snow was growing heavier, as
the day sped on. however. and It wa.

to be in real danger if she could no
