TUG OFF TO PORT AU PRINCE.
The Buccaneer Has Italian Steamer
in Tow.

With the Italian ship Fortuna in tow.
the tug Buccaneer. under command OF
Capt. Mcleod. has sailed from Norfolk
for Port au Prince, Haiti, a distance of
about 1000 miles. The Fortuna was the
ship that stranded near Ocean City, Md,
about year ago and which was seen,
while lying on the beach, by many per-
sons from this city. She was fioated by
one of the slavage companies and later
was sold at auction to the Franc}. Trans
atlantic Steamship Company, to meet the
claims against her.
Her purchasers had her fitted out for
her long trip at a Norfolk shipyard Ia.
loaded with coal, she has been started
on her voyage behind the big tug. Ar
irving at the Haitian port the ortuna
will be used as a coal storage depot for
the ships of her owners calling at that
port.
The Buccaneer is one Of the tugs of the
American Towing Company of Bal imore.
and is employed most of her time in these
long tows from one Atlantic port to an
other She will be about a week making
the trip, unless very bad weather is en-
countered, necessitating her seeking

Great Expense to Washington.
''It is an expensive proposition to nre.
pare Washington to receive the large
crowds which come here for these cele-
bratlons. There is every argument in
favor of later date for the celebrations
Time Is needed in which to collect money

that the weather conditions should be
such that the entertainment features may

the capital. particularly the men who ad-

memory Of the fact that they have given
to the National Capital great demon

and the south have an opportunity OF
paying SUCH respect q fTeSlQent OF

"It should be our purpose to do every

''There might be objection to this sep

by some citizens. There are always GER
tain members Of a community who want
to do nothing better than travel in the
well beaten paths Of their predecessors.
But fears OF the possible non-success as
a consequence OF such a change are
nothing but expressions Of opinion. in
my judgment, and they are not argu-
ments.

Trade Board Head Doubtful.
Edward II. Droop. president of the
Board of Trade. was emphatic in stating
that he would like to see the date of the
inauguration changed TO the last Thurs
day in April. but he was not quite so
sure that Mr.. Wilson's suggestion for
having the President sworn in two
months before the inaugural ceremonies
would work out well.
Certainly" said Mr.. Droop, 1T would
be great benefit to Washington busi-
ness men to have the inaugural cere-
monies take place the last part of April
instead of March f. During February and
March business men here have a lot of
matters to attend TO. 1t is the busiest
season Of the year. almost. Many of
these men are called upon to give up
their time to attend committee meetings
and to work for the success of the in
augurai ceremonies which take place
March 4. The ceremonies themselves
break in upon our business. Personally
i should be very glad to see the change.
Arrangements Already Made.
But one great objection to following
out the plan suggested by Gov. Wilson
lies In the fact that already many per-
sons have made all their arrangements
for attending the inauguration next
March f. They have taken accommoda-
tions at hotels. have rented houses and
windows to watch the parade. II at this

election campaigns. last night. THE
holding of the ceremonies the last Thurs
day in April has the advantage of saving
the members Of the looming Congress
a double trip to Washington. for they
would come at that time any way for the
special session of Congress. OF course,
there is the danger that the ceremonies

the oath would be an anti-climaX."

democrats of the Senate and the presi-

Senator Culberson, another of the vet
eran democrats in the upper house of
Congress. decline to make any comment.
He declared that he desired to learn the
exact terms of the announcement before
talking for publication.
Senator BOrah Of Idaho. republican,
suggested that he would make an amend
ment to Mr.. Wilson's announcement:
II agree with him that there should
be only the administration of the oath
of Office March 4. But 1 would omit the
pageant features Of the Inauguration

Mr.. Wilson go back to the old idea Of

Strikes Bell Unfavorably.
c. ]. Bell. president of the American
Security and Trust Company and a for
mer chairman of the inaugural commit
tee, said the suggestion of separating the
features of the inauguration struck him
unfavorably at the first glance.
This suggestion. if carried OUT Mr..
Bell said. would seem to sort of follow
the customs of the crowned heads of Eu-
rope in holding their coronations con-
siderably after the death of a previous
ruler. If the celebration Is held long
after. OF even two months after the TAX
ing of the oath by the President. con-
likely to die out. | should th.ln 1t is
rather radical idea.
Il am, of course. in favor of a change
OF date. and of having the President take
the. oath and celebrating the occasion
with the usual parade and inaugural ball
later in the year. but 1 must say 1 think
1t would be a mistake to separate the two
features OF the inauguration. The people
now come here to see the President take
the oath. That is the moving cause
of their visit to Washington, and as many
OF them gather to see him take the oath
as can do 50 They would not make
two trips to Washington. one to see him
sworn in and another to view a parade
and attend a ball. that Is sure. At least
no great numbers of the people through
out the country would. so that l feel
certain 1t would be a mistake to separate
the ofhicial feature of taking the oath
and the unofficial feature of the celebra-
tion."

Union Trust Company. a democrat, who
was asked by President Taft to take the
position he held four years ago as in
augural chairman. said the possibility
OF separating the features of the inaugu-
ration came to him as an absolute sur
prise. and that he, therefore, could not
express an opinion on the desirability or
undesirability of it.

sald, and l am IN the dark as to the
advisability of separating the official
public celebration. That the inaugural
! date. however, should be set for later in
the year there is no longer any room for
doubt. and 1t should undoubtedly come
at time when there would be a prospect
of good weather and less danger to
health than in March. and with it larger
gatherings in Washington, and, there
fore. greater interest in the accession to

,, Last Committee Gave Money.
.. This postponement of the date was
favored by the last inaugural committee,
and was so evidenced by it's vote to turn
over to the national committee on change
of Inauguration date the sum of about
$500. which was left over from our fund

might use this money to arouse public
opinion as to the necessity of the change.
would, indeed. like to see the date made
later in the year, but the proposition of
separating parts of the Inauguration and
having two occasions is too new one for
me to have an opinion as to it's feasibility.
1t will have to be thrashed out"
Edison Doubts Feasibility.
John Joy Edison. another. former in
augural chairman, and president of the
Washington Loan. and Trust Company,
also doubts the feasibility of separating
the features Of the Inauguration. He
said:
1.-The dispatches received from Bermuda
stating that If those interested in the
subject could agree to it he would accede
to a separation of the features Of the
Inauguration, taking the oath March 4.
and postponing the festival until the lat
ter part of April. indicates to my mind
very strongly the prevailing opinion OF
public men and the public generally the
desirability of changing the inaugural
date to later in the year. This. it i'm
presses me, is long step toward the
day which. I hope. is clearly in the fu-
ture, when the change will be made.
las to the practicability of carrying out
the suggestion coming from Bermuda.
there may be some doubt. The oath Of
office could be administered March 4. as
is customary, and the President could, of
course, deliver his inaugural address at
that time. These are the most impOr
tant features Of inauguration. Whether
two months after taking the oath the
festivals that have attended inaugura-
tions in the past could be successfully
held. L would hesitate to express an
opinion.
Celebrations Must Be Held.

Gov. Wilson Wiling
To Delay Celebration
If There Is Agreement

HAMILTON. Bermuda, November 90.
Coy. Woodrow Wilson is willing to
take the oath Of office as President of
the United States without ostentation
on March 4. and that the formal cere-
monials that every fourth year attract
thousands of citizens to Washington
be postponed until the last Thursday
in April.
To. that extent he has indorsed the
propaganda in favor of a later inaugu-
ration. which has been advocated in
and out Of Congress in order that the
event might be conducted at a time
when the weather usually is propitious
at the National Capital.
Many Urge Postponement.
Many persons have urged the Presi-
dent-to-be to sanction a postponement Of
the inaugural ceremonies without realiz-
ing that this cannot be done without an
act of Congress, and that it is impos-
sible now to change the forthcoming
ceremony SO far as the taking Of the
oath is concerned.
Mr. Wilson's statement today, however.
indicates his sympathy with the later
Inauguration movement and implies that
he will gladly assent to delay Of the
show features of the event if an agree
ment to this end can be reached.

son and their daughters. Jessie and

Costello Not in Favor of It.

John F. Costello. democratic national
committeeman. is not in favor of having
different dates for swearing in Gov Will
son as President and for the usual in
augural ceremonies.
Congress has not acted to change the
date of the Inauguration of the Presi-
dent. though there have been repeated ef-
forts to bring about such a change"
said Mr.. Costello. You won't be able
to keep the peop.e away from Washing
ton when Gov. Wilson comes here to be
sworn in as President March 4. as the
Constitution directs. And you won't be
able to get them to come back to Wash
ington for a parade and inaugural ball
two months after they have seen him
take the oath of office.
II have received no intimation yet that
any such change Is contemplated"

One of the facts in connection with
the protective tariff system in the
United States which cannot be con-
troverted is that whatever of pros
perity the country has enjoyed has
been when protection for home in
dustries was in force. Any man who
has lived for a generation in this
country known this to be true. He
knows also, that under a tariff for
revenue only, or free trade, or even
the threat of revenue tariff, indus
tries have become paralyzed and not
only manufacturers but also business
men, the wage-earners and farmers
have suffered. Free trade to-day or
a tariff for revenue would be as pro-
ductive of depressed conditions in
business as crisis in the financial af-
fairs of the country.

MRS. STELLA BOSTON SWAN


Friends in this vicinity OF Mrs. Stella
B. Swan win be grieved to learn OF her
death which occurred last Saturday at
midnight at the home of her son Carroll j.,
In Brookiine, Mass.
Mrs. Swan was born in Norridgewock
Aug. 8, 1854. Her early life was spent there.
She was married to Eugene j. Swan, OF
Franklin, Dec. %, 1875. They lived in
Franklin where Mr.. Swan WIS in business
for many years, and there her three sons
DR.. Eugene L., Carroll j., and Alton were
born. Mr.. Swan finally moved West.
Mrs. Swan in recent years had made her
home in Brooklyn, N. Y, occupying her
cottage at Hancock Point summers. She
served as president OF the Maine club in
New York, and was active in church work
at Plymouth church, being chiefly in
terested in mission work.
During all her life away from her native
State her interest in il never tagged, nor
did her love ever grow less for those she
had loved in her youth. Her father was
George II. Boston, veteran of the Civil
war, and prominent in the whaling busi-
ness in the early days. Her mothers
name was Philena II. Pomeroy.
Mrs. Swan had been in failing health for
| q year or more. When she left Hancock
Point last fall she went to the home OF her
son in Brookline where she was tenderiy
| cared for until the end.
She is survived by her husband, three
sons and an aged mother. Her remains
were taken to Norridgewock and placed
in plot where eight OF her ancestors are
buried.
