Baltimore, May 6.-John w. roster
former secretary of state, and one Of
the foremost authorities on inter-
national law. in an address before the
third National Peace Congress mere
today declared that the principal les
son of the present condition on the
Mexican border was the need OF bet
ter neutrality laws. Mr.. Foster sug'
eested three notifications which. IN
his opinion, the present laws should
undergo:
First. some restriction should be
placed upon the free commerce as
a mercantile commodity OF arms and
munitions of war; and power should
be conferred upon the president to
limit or suspend, in his discretion.

tary service of any power or chief
at war with a nation with which we
are at peace. 1t was the personal
aid of Americans that gave strength
to the Canadian rebellion in 1888, to
to the late insurrection in Mexico, and
to the recent civil wars in Nicaragua
and Honduras. In this respect the
laws of Great Britain, France and oth'
er countries are in advance OF ours
The British Foreign Enlistment Act
of 1870 makes it unlawful for any
British subject to enter the military
service of any power at war with
nation with which it's government is
at peace. and it subjects them to
heavy fine and imprisonment. In all
its neutrality proclamations on the
breaking out of h0stilities In other
nations, the British government noti'
fies its subjects of the penalties they
will incur under their own laws, and
it further warns them that they will
enter such service at their own peril.
in no wise obtain any protection from
their own government, and must suf-
fer such penalties as the enemy may
inflict upon them. We certainly
should do no less than this.
Third, greater power should be-
conferred upon the president, in time
of civil disturbance on the frontier
to limit or prohibit intercourse
across the border, to prevent the
abuse of our territory by foreign con.
spirators, and in hiss discretion to
enforce martial law on our soil within

FIRE

Christmas Night 1911 will long be romem-
bered from the Occurrence Of u fire, the II,
larm of which reused the town from its slum-
Der, aud which, but for the energetic efforts
of the local Brandcorps, aud the valuable
help from tho w~arships in port, might have
ended far more seriously. As it is, three
houses we're destroyed, with the resultant
loss of personal effects, and the damage caus-
ed by cutting away to check its spread.
1t was shortly before IL o'clock when the
general alarm was heard; it occurred down
town, and in the upper part of the large
WOO an wall building owned and occupied
by MIR. Julio Brady, storeEaepar Of St.
Thomas Dock, Engineering < Coaling Co,
auI family. On The instant Of the aIprm a
few persons appeared Gu the scene, to find
the streets almost dosortc |. an the house
already under flames. Two OF lh} su Hest
children found standing on side the h5us4 In
a helpless state of fright We're Jlk-u dOWu
the long flight of steps to Il place of safe Y.
In tho meantime the mother managed to es-
cape with the three others, all in bare bed
clothes, and with Just a blanket thrown
around her. For some time she was uu1-
ware of the whereabouts of the two, and
feared they may nave b3en left in the burn
ing house, but happily they were found safe
AMI sound III the care OF a neighbour. Need
less to say, the whole contents of the house
were consumed; bat the pet dog was saw
ed.
Famed by a strong e%asterly breeze the
flames in m incredibly short time took the
second story as we'll, sending up showers of
sparks, some of which caught clothing in
nearby yards and were blown INTO and upon
houses. A pretty sight was the burning of a
tail c%ocoanut tree in Mrs. Blasini's yard,
which vas set ablaze by a spark and had to
be chopped down.
, 1911-12-30

The reaching out OF the flames TO the two
nearest houses both east and west SOON
caught these also, and it being impossible to
save them, all efforts were directed toward
checking the spread Of the fire, which after
hard work proved successful. Al one mo-
ment, however, the wind rose and it looked as
if the fire wonld get out of hand, but fortu.
nately it did not. Surrounded by such .
cluster of more OF less wooden structures it's
spread would have been disastrous. and
while sym pathy must be expressed with thu
sufferers it is consoling to know things could
have been much worse.
The cause of the fire cannot be stated re-
port seems to suggest incendiarism, but the
facts of the case may only be found out ir
the searching investigation that will follow
The property in which the fire broke out
was one Of the substantial ones erecf-n ~
the good old days, that IS, when money was
plentiful and (slaye) labor cheap. 1t lad a
venerable age too, since our oldest living
carpenter (AIr. Hoheb, who is 85) cannot re-
member when it was built. Before it came
by auction sale into the possession of it's pre-
sent owner it belonged to the housekeeper
of the late sailmaker Bahusen, who made it
over to her. The other part of the property
was unframed by the fire; the destroyed
portion was insured for $500 ia the Nortl.
British and Mercantile Go. We have not
heard whether the household effects were
covered, or the other houses also, though in
these days of low rates it is not likely thew
were uninsured.
The small wooden house on the eastern
side belonged to the late Chr. MUler's FAM
Iy, and was unoccupied- The other also OF
wood bat larger was the property OF the
late Mr.. Chr. Daniel, aud had tender family
associations, having been the home of the
deceased BrnndmajOr Jos. Daniel, the Welt
known s~hipwright, and the place where his
aforenamed son was born. A part of it wa-
vacant; in the other lived the Huntingdon
family, six in number, who saved only a cot
and one of whom from fright was Seized
with violent hernorrhage from the lungs.
The occupants of the houses that stood IL.
the greatest danger sought refuge in differ
ent places. The report that the Catholic
Church Sustained damage is incor4oot.
Both Mr.. Brady and Braudmaior French
were absent in st. Croix.
The first equipped helpers to arrive on
the spot were the men from the Ingolf, the
squads from the German cruiser Bromen and
German schoolship Prinz Ethel Friedrich be-
ing close after Both the Bremen and wreck

Christmas night Of this year will long be
remembered IN the annals of the island by
the fire which destroyed three houses and
caused the destruction of two others. 1t
was just before II o'clock when the alarm
was given and being a holiday there was
soon q huge crowd of people rushing to
the scene. The fire originated in Mr..
Julio Brady's house (NIr. Brady was
absent il st, Croix), but no one can positive
" say how it originated, Certain it is that all
Tie occupants of the house had retired,
aud were barely able to save their lives.
1t is rumoured that one of the little
children called her mothers attention
to some one being in the house, but the
mother ignored the idea. Shortly after the
alarm was given. Nothing in the house was
saved, but we believe the building was
insured. The other tour houses wore nm
occupied.
Fortunately for us most valuable help was
rendered by the German warship Bremen"
and the Danish cruiser "IngoIf, . for with
the breeze that was blowing we can't tell
how many more houses may not have gone.
Much sympathy is felt for Mr.. Brady,
whose loss is severe and otaI.-Ejght6ourtl'8

NEW BISHOP Of NATCHEz
Catholics And Nom Catholics Join
In Paying honors To Rev.
l Father Gum.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug 20.--The mem.
bers Of the Sacred Heart Church have
already raised $500 a. present for
Father Gum, soon to be bishop Of
Natchez, Mlss. 1t was originally In.
tended to raise 5000, but II Is quite
probable that even larger sum will
be secured before all the subscriptions
are 10.
Father Rapier today announced q
number OF arrangements for the con-
secration services on August 20. On
this occasion, he states, there will be
six Or seven bishops and about fifty
priests present. Arrangements have
been made for the entertainment OF
the visitors. N-
In order that the people Of Atlanta
may meet the new bishop and visitors,
two receptions have been scheduled,
one In the afternoon OF the consecra-
tion day for the children and the
second in the evening for the adults.
The services will begin at o'clock 10
the morning and will be completed by
noon. The women who attend .have
been instructed to wear mautillas.
The Sacred Heart Church is q small
one, and many who wish to attend
cannot be accommodated. Admission
will be by card. and the members Of
the parish will receive first call on the
seats The irst four rows have been
reserved for the friends Of the new
bishop and the visiting preIatcs and
Others.
There has been great desire on
the part Of non.C Catholics, who very
much admire Father Gum, TO see the
ceremony, but very few OF these can
be accommoda The automobiles
OF the Catholics Of Atlanta Will be
put at the disposal OF the pro1ates
while they are here.
