BIC SEA BATTERS
STRANDED VESSEL
Captain and Grew of Princess
Irene Still Aboard
Hard Ashore.
(American News SerVice)

Fire Island, n. Y, April S.-A
strong northeast wind amounting al
most to a gale blew up today causing
heavy seas to batter the stranded
North German Lloyd liner Princess
Irene which still lies a cripple across
the hog backed sand spit off Lone
Hill. On board her was Captain Won
Letten Petersen and his officers and
crew of $50 men.
The fleet of high powered tugs that
hauled at the great vessel, barely
moved her while the heavy combers
which swept in from the Atlantic
pounded her hull. sending showers of
spray over the ship. At times the YES
sci trembled violently as particular
ly vicious wave smashed against her
broadside.
The heavy swell built higher and
higher the ridge of sand against the
boat which had rammed the sand spit
adding to the difficulties of the work
of rescue. At midday the position of
the Princess Irene had become SO
grave that fears were felt for her ul-
innate safety and members of the
Lone Hill life saving station predict
ed that she would go to pieces. Coast
Inspector NJ. l.. Dunbar of the customs
service inspected the vessel at noon
and declared that if she were not off
before night she would probably be
"hogged" across the bar amidships
making it practically impossible to
free her

M. ]. O'Brien Tells City Off
Gals that Reporters Are
Human Beings and Agents
of the Public.
LESS SECRECY WAS
TIP" GIVEN BOARD
Newspaper Men Should Have
Confidence imposed in
Them-Board Is Surprised
by Information.

Sessions of council or the board of
works behind closed doors and the
conduct of newspaper reporters. were
discussed yesterday afternoon by NJ
J. OBrien, president of the city sink
ing fund commission. before a number
of city officials congregated in the
controllers office.
Mr. O'Brien declared that a private
session of the board or council, for. a
particular purpose, was proper, in
fact, he said it is essential in consider
ing important matters. But he does
not approve of sessions held behind
closed doors, where several matters
are discussed. A session of the lat
ter variety was held some time ago by
council and the board of works. when
the water works, smoke nuisance and
dog tax questions were brought up.
The city of Richmond" said Mr.
O'Brien. is corporation of $4,000
members, and practically $4,000, 900
capital stock. The stock holders of
the company should never be kept in
ignorance of the workings of its board
of directors as | would call the board
of works and council
I'VE doubt not but that the aim of
! the board is toward something good
for the city, but its Withholding in
! formation is wrong. When the people
are expecting information on certain
questions and then they fail to receive
it there is a cry. They say You are
afraid to come out in the open.
Reporters Human Beings.
Reporters. according to Mr.. O'BrieI
are human beings, just the same as
any one else. Reporters are honest
| he continued, ''or they would not be
reporters. A reporter who betrays a
confidence is not worth considera
ton.
The local board of works should
place confidence in the reporters,
O'Brien continued. They should be
admitted to the secret meetings. What
the board did not wish published, or il
they didn't wish anything published
the reporters should be SO Informed
and they would keep silent. By per
mttins the reporters to come into the
meeting they could keep in toucl
with the situation and when the boart
finally decides to give out the informa
ton, instead of writing a half story
probably most OF it wrong, the report
ers could inform the public intelli
gently. l don't believe the bOart
would ever regret placing confidence
in reporters"
How To Treat Them.
Regarding treatment of reporter
O'Brien says that Richmond is consid
erably different from other cities. HI
said the president of the nation. tht
governors of states and mayors o
large cities, impose confidence il
newspaper men and betrayals of con
fidence are almost unknown.
