JAPANESE WARSHIP LOSES
TORPEDO OF SECRET MAKE

LONDON, Aug. 12.-Japan is afraid
that one of her most important naval
secrets will fall into the hands of a
rival power through the loss of a
torpedo from the new battleshp
Kongo on her trial trip recently off
the Irish coast.
Ihe Japanese government has of
fered reward of $1,000 for the re-
covery of the torpedo. This Is five
times the amount usually offered by
the British government in similar cir
cumstances The explanation, ac-
cording to the Pail Mall Gazette, is
that the torpedoes of the Kongo are
unique in constructions and that they
embody important secrets of con-
struction. This newspaper says the
torpedo has a much longer range ana
is more deadly than the newest style
of British torpedo. 1t is said to be
propelled by engines worked by heat
ed air generated by a spirit, the COM
position of which is the discovery
of japanese scientists and unknown
to the outside world.

Pickard Gives UP Wine Sup
pers and Chorus Girls for
Young Bride.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug, Paul
Pickard, jr., a Chicago youth whose
escapades, wine suppers and attend
ance at stage doors for the past sew
eral years have furnished amuse-
ment to his friends, succeeded in
astonishing his parents a few days
ago. He bounced right in on his papa
and mama with real pretty girl,
whom he introduced as his wife.
They were very much surprised.
Two months ago the elder Pickard
concluded that his son had had his
full fling and sent him to New York,
where temptations are fewer, to for
get the frivolities of Chicago.
Here's the younger Pickard's story:
"a week ago 1 met q crowd of
good fellows at the Knickerbocker
in New York. We went to see the
Giants play. I was introduced to the
prettiest girl I ever saw. She was
roofing for the opposing team. and
in fun l said: IF the Giants win will
you marry me@ She said Yes and
the game went on. New York won.
Then we all went to the College Inn
for dinner
"I ordered wine for a toast and
then I asked them all to drink to
my bride-to-be The funny part OF
it was / had to ask her name. but I
was determined that / was going to
marry her
"Stella-I was calling her Peggy
said it was all a joke, but l In
sisted She had made a bet and had
lost, and she was too good a fellow
to WEIGH. So next morning we went
to the Little Church Around the
Corner and then Mr.. and Mrs. Pick
ard, jr., went back to the Knicker-
booker.
Papa is all right. He's a brick.
Mother Is still a little surprised, but
she'll like her new daughter-in-laW,
all right
az have sent word to the bunch
that I'm through, and I'm going to
work"
Young Pickard recently inherited
a fortune from his grandparents es-
tate in France. but 1t Is said to have
shrunk as a result of trips about the
country with various musical comedy
companies and other like experiences.
The girl is Miss Stella Griffin, said
to be a niece of e. J. Higbee, of Lake
Geneva.

SKIPPER SWEPT INTO SEA
AND DROWNED IN STORM
Especial to the Newark start

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Aug. H.
Swept overheard during the heavy
storm which dashed the Jersey coast
late Sunday afternoon, the tailend
of the baby tornado which did whole
sale damage throughout Pennsylva-
mia, Captain Warren Crowley, of this
city, was drowned in Great Bay be-
fore friends aboard the cruiser Cath
cart could help him. News Of the
tragedy did not reach this city until
yesterday, when the surviving men,
bers of the party landed.
A big wave struck the side of the
craft and caught him off his balance,
Crowley was catapulted into the wa
ter and carried away by the current
before the others could assist him.
The others of the party had a har-
rowing experience during the rest of
the storm. Without anchor and hav-
ing but slight idea about running a
boat. they barely pulled through the
terrific blow, and when they landed
were entirely exhausted.

Union MEN IN PROTEST
AGAINST SPECIAL COPS

Labor representatives made tn aI
hearing of a case of alleged llleSa.
arrest the occasion of a protest -
the police commissioners yesterday
afternoon when they proteste.o
against the granting of special ON
Ger licenses to favored employees GA
firms conducting shops in Newark.
S. R. Young, delegate of the Ma
tional Association of Maehlnlsts'
complained that he was illegally ar
rested on August 1 by Special Ofhcer
E. j. Jennings. who is also superlh-
tendent of the j. S. Mundy Hosting
Engine Company. The charge against
Young was that he was obstruetins
the sidewalk and causing crowd to
congregate. The case was dismissed.
Hugh Reilly, representing tho
Essex Trades Union. appeared before
the board and said in part:
I'VE want to ask you commission
ers to take into consideration the
evils that might grow out of having
trusted employees of shops licensed
as special officers. They could arrest
walking delegates for alleged VIOLA
tions of the law when the men were
only exercising the constitutional
right of free speech"
The board. after an executive ses-
sion. decided to lay the matter over
for more mature elaboration.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-Fourteen
cocoanut-hungry sailors on the
United States ship Hannibal came
near causing a diplomatic incident,
according to advices reaching the
state department today, and it was
only through the diplomatic skill of
commander George N. Hayward, in

FEDERATION BARS
SUFFRAG|ST TALK
Archbishop Advises New Cath
Ollie Woman's League to
Avoid Discussion.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug. 12.-The
formation of a National Catholic
Women's League and an address by
T. B. Minahan, of Seattle, Wash. on
"The Catholic American Citizen
were features of today's session of
the American Federation of Catholic
Societies, which are holding their
twelfth annual convention here.
Committees on resolution and or
ganization have been working for a
year formulating plans for the wom-
ems societies, and today the outcome
of their work will be definite or
ganization. Miss Elizabeth Marshall,
of Milwaukee, has been mentioned as
the first president of the new league.
In accordance with the wishes of
Archbishop S. G. Messmer at yester-
days meeting, the women. 1t Is pre-
dicted, will bar suffrage from the dis
cussions of the league.
Seeks to Prevent Discord.
There is a great division of opinion
among the men and women delegates
here on woman suffrage, and 1t has
practically been decided to prevent
possible discord in the new league by
prohibiting suffrage debates.
The third days session OF the con-
vention opened with solemn requiem
mass at st. Mary's Church. A bust
ness meeting followed in one of the
smaller halls of the auditorium, at
which time T. B. Minahan and the
Rev. James H. Cotter, of 1ronton, o.,
vice-president of the Catholic Press
Association, spoke. During the al
ternoon the social service conference
will be resumed, at which A. Willis, OF
London, England, will be the chief
speaker on the topic, Methods IN Clr-
culating Literature"
Women delegates to the federation
will be given banquet by the Mar
quette Women's League at noon, ana
an automobile tour about the city
during the afternoon. There Will be
mass-meeting in the evening"
Deny Seeking Political Control.
DENYING that Roman Catholics in
America are seeking political control
of the government; that the Pope Is
ambitious to secure temporal rule
here; that laymen are plotting, plan
ming and drilling to march upon the
White House and capitol, as is some
times charged, Archbishop Ireland ad-
dressed the 500 delegates at the con-
vention and the 10000 visitors here
last night and lauded the intense 10y
atty of his co-religionists. He said in
part:
"They know us little who accuse us
of coveting civil and political power
that we may dim the splendor of the
fairest flower in the garden of Ameri-
canism. Our combats, if combats
there be, are never against the liber-
ties of America, but in defense of
them; never against America, but
against such of it's sons whose souls
have not thrilled in, full response to
its teachings and inspirations"
