CAMPAIGN PLANNED
AdmiralSigsbee Confers with
Maj. Merriam.

Admiral Sigsbee win probably call a
meeting of the Maine Monument Associa-
ton within the next week to decide upon
a campaign for the raising of funds to
erect a monument in this city to the
dead sailors of the battle ship Maine
which was sunk in the harbor of Havana
February Is, 1925.
Last night, after a conference with
Maj. Louis Merriam, U. S. A, retired,
who is treasurer of the association, it
was decided to call a meeting to decide
upon a courseSof action. Admiral Sigsbee
explained that the reason Cor stopping
the work of raising money some time ago
was due to the lack of help.
Most of the work has to be done by
volunteers, as it costs too much to employ
help TO collect and solicit funds" said
Admiral Sigsbee last night
ut will cost about $780, 900 to erect a suit
able monument to the dead boys of the
battle ship Maine, and il is fitting that
the monument be erected in Washington
close TO Arlington. where many of them
are buried. We expect the Spanish War
Veterans to cooperate with us, and there
is no doubt in my mind that the money

MEMBER OF HOUSE
RUNS LOCOMOTIVE
Shows Colleagues How Acct
dents Can Be Prevented.

With a misplaced rail. split switch, and
broken frogs lying directly in his path.
w. B. Craig, member of Congress from
Alabama, yesterday afternoon opened
wide the throttle OF a locomotive and
drove the iron horse laundering down the
track at the rate of forty miles an hour
while a number of his colleagues watched
from a distance with bated breath. 1t
was with a sigh of relief that they saw
the intrepid legislator safely override the
obstacles that have throughout the his
tory of railrOading been synonymous with
death.
Mr.. Craig was trying out for his own
satisfaction a device to prevent the de-
raiIIng of railroad trains by defective
tracks. invented by J. T. Andrew, of
Montgomery, one of his constituents
1t was the first time since 1897 that Mr..
Craig had run a locomotive.
The trial took place on a stretch of
leased track belonging to the Chesapeake
beach Railroad Company, near Ben
ming, d. c.
Mr.. Andrew has patented his device
and is demonstrating it at Benning. Rail-
road officials all over the country are
becoming interested in the invention
Judson Clements, chairman of the Inter
state Commerce Commission; Lee Nc
Chung, Treasurer of the United States,
and the Assistant Treasurer, G. c. Bantz
with a number Of Congressman were out
to the trial stretch of track yesterday.
Representative Craig, who is only thir-
ty-two years old, worked in a locomotive
shop about fifteen years ago, and knows
considerable about engines. He was en-
gagged in the aligning of the drivers, the
most difficult part OF locomotive con-
struction, and often tried engines out on
the road

POLICE ARE NETTLED.
Failure to Convict Is Held to Dis
credit Them.

Judge De Lacy's plan for reformation
rather than conviction, which has won
the admiration of the students of Orfm-
inology throughout the country, are the
reasons, it is said. that form the basis
of the attack started by the fling OF
charges with the Commissioners that he
has exceeded his authority.
Before the institution of the Juvenile
Court all cases Of a minor nature were
tried before the Judges Of the Police
Court With the institution OF the Juve-
nile Court. all cases involving children
were transferred to that court Judge
DE Lacy, who is a great believer in the
theory that sending children to a reform
school when better means of correction
may be employed is bad policy, has in
CURED the displeasure of some of the
members of the police force. who are
anxious to see every case they bring into
court result in conviction.
II do not know what the charges are"
said Judge De Lacy. They are the first
that have been formally made, as far as
L know. against the court. and as soon
as l see them 1 will tell my side of it."
