MAKES A REQUEST
FOR RETIREMENT.

WASHINGTON, January 14.-Sur-
prise was created among the members
of congress yesterday when the appli.
cation of Rear Admiral Edward b
Barry for retirement from service was
received. Accompanying the applica-
ton was a recommendation from Sec
rotary of the Navy Meyer that it be
granted.
Rear Admiral Barry was born Octo-
Der 20, 1S49, consequently will not
reach the age of enforced retirement
until October 90, 1911. It is indicat
ed chat ill-health is the cause of the
application.
Rear Admiral Barry was in com
mand of the second division of the Pa.
cific fleet in 1909, and is we'll known on
the Pacific coast and in Honolulu. He
graduated from the United States
Naval Academy in 1869, and seved on

PUT I'M POCKET
+. SAN FRANCISCO, January a.
John Norbon, well known mining en-
gineer of this city and Oakland, was
blown to atoms yesterday, while cross
ing the bay on the ferryboat Berkeley.
Two other persons were injured by the
force of the explosion.
When Mr.. Norbon walked aboard the
ferry boat someone, who escaped in
the crowd, dropped a bottle of some
chemical compound into his pocket.
The engineer reached down and took
out the bottle, which a number of per-
sons saw him look at as though puz-
zled. Then came the explosion
Several of those near the unfortunate
man were thrown down and two of
them severely injured and others
bruised For a moment there wHS a
panic on the boat, which soon ended
and the injured were then cared for

BAILEY OPPOSES
THE TAFT PLAN

WASHINGTON, January 14.-Sena-
tor Joseph w. Bailey. of Texas, threw
down the gauntlet to President Taft
and the Republican administration,
yesterday, during a lively tilt in the
senate chamber, when he gave formal
notice that he would oppose the crea.
ton of a tariff commission.
This is the pet measure of the ad-
ministration and the President is par.
ticularly interested in the passage OF
the bill introduced in the house by
Congressman Longworth for the or
ganization of this commission, the
names of its members having already
been practically decided upon.
The formal declaration of wal
against the commission, as made by
Senator Bailey, means chat a deter
mined effort will be made in the sen
ate to defeat the measure when il
reaches the upper house, where the
Democratic leader expects to line W
against it all opposed to further tin
kering with the tariff.
1t is now practically certain that
the bill will pass in the house, and
it was stated last evening that a con
ference of Republican leaders in the
senate will be held with the President
at the White House, probably today
in view of the proposed opposition tt
the passage of the bill in the senate.

Castro'S Return.

After some days OF doubt. marked by
repeated denia6 that he was a passenger
on q steamer headed for the neighbor-
hood Of Venezuela, 1t has been ascer-
tanned that Cipriano Castro, the virtually
exiled former president of that country.
has made a landing in Colombia, within
easy reach OF Venezuela. That he con-
templates a re-entry and an attempt to
regain his former position has been taken
for granted ever since II was stated that
he was on his way from his hiding place
of months. This presupposes that a
Castro movement has been in progress in
Venezuela for some time. for it would
be hopeless for him to attempt, even on

BY this government Castro is regarded
with a well justified suspicion and pro-
found dislike. He has ignored all that

Venezuela from foreign absorption. and
has not only injured the interests of the
Americans in that country. but has en-
deavored to spread a wholly unjustified
distrust OF the motives and policy of the
United States throughout South and Cen

Venezuela would be calamitous. from
every point OF view, and is to be resisted
by all who hope for peace and progress

Trimming Too Closely.

An epidemic is the last thing to be de-
sired By the District. and yet 1t would
not at this time be without its value as
an object lesson to Congress, teaching
the extreme danger of cutting the local
appropria tionS down to too fine a point.
The failure of the contagious diseases
fund 10 last to the close of the fiscal
wear coupled with the refusal of the con-
troller of the Treasury to permit the use
of the Districts emergency fund to meet
the deficit. has brought the local govern
ment within possible range of calam-
ity Ii may Soothe the local feelings to
reflect that there is comparatively small
likelihood of an outbreak of dangerous
disease within the last days Of the fiscal
year but this consolation does not serve
TO excuse the parsimony of Congress IN
pairing the estimates down to such a
point that a single exceptional happen
ing such as the discovery Of leper in
Washington. can deprive the entire COM
munity. including the legislators them
selves and the members of their fam
lilies. of the safeguard of a fund to or
ganiZe quarantines and to nurse the sick
in the event of an epidemic.
II Is no answer to the real question in
volved to say that if such an emergency
should arise Congress, being in session.
would promptly meet it with a special
appropriation. The emergency might
come any year. with Congress not in
session. 1t might. in not imprOba BILE
circumstances. arise some odd number
ed. or short session year soon after the
4th of March, with the District exposed
for nearly four months to disease and
dependent upon such measures as the
government, by a stretch of its powers,
could adopt.
The simple truth is that in this matter

trct has been denied the use of a suffi-
cient amount OF its own tax money.

guard itself throughout the year. One
unusual happening drains the treasury

pirate a large percentage of the District S

policy of Congress in holding the Dis

nowhere else, in government or In bust

Washington National Park.
From the Baltimore Sun.

Senator John Walter Smith has taken
the first step looking to the creation of
national park near Washington by the in
PRODUCTION of a bill providing for the ap-
preparation of 100000 annually for four
years for the requirement OF lands north
of the Potomac for a forest reserve. This
was first suggested by William NJ Eli
colt of Baltimore. who found that about
10000 acres OF timbered lands were avail
able within few miles Of the National
Capital and could be converted into a
splendid park and experimental field for
the forestry service His ideas are en-
bodied in the bill of Senator Smith who is
member of the commission to establish
the forest reserve in the White mountains
and the Appalachians. Senator Smith
proposes that > per cent of the proceeds
from the sale of timber be used for the
benefit of public schools and roads in the
state in which the forest is located As
the entire area is in this state. Maryland
would receive the benefit. While there is
no possibility of the immediate passage
OF this bill. it will direct attention to the
advantages of creating so vast play
ground and forest experimental station at
the doors of the capital. and will aid in
winning support for the project Senator
Smith doubtless will press the measure
with vigor. Such A park would be last
ing monument to him.
