PLYMOUTH, Aug. 6.-'"rhe
Imperator is too small; we want
larger vessels" exclaimed Cap
tain Ruser, after landing the
greatest ship in the world at this
port last week, and being told
that the Imperator is already
fully booked for her next two
westward trips. The Imperator
proceeded from here to Cher

WHITTLE HAS
To PAY BILLS
THROUGH CITY

On recommendation of Commits
sioner Mills, Captain Whittle of
the fire department gets pay for
his time while he has been off
duty resting, despite the fact
that the fire department doctor
has not signed his claim, but only
on consideration that Whittle
turns the cash over to Mills to
pay bills with.
In other words, the department
of safety is to be made bill-col-
lecting agency.
Mills says Whittle has been on
the roll for months and has prom
Used to pay his bills. He has not
been working, but was kept on the
roll under the pension law.
Now the city will take the
money voted him and pay his per-
sonal bills.
1t was in defense of Whittle
that Mills attacked Engineer Tur-
ner some weeks ago when he
tried to show up Whittle for draw
ing money from the pension fund
when not entitled to it.

DISCONTINUANCE OF
STREETS is ASKED
Railroad Operations on Vernon and
Hudson Streets Make County
Court Petition Necessary.

l.. +. Holden and others, landowners.
have brought a petition today through
the town counsel, \. F. Carpenter, to
the county, court asking that a portion
of Vernon street and portion Of
Hudson street be discontinued. The
petition sets up that the necessity and
convenience of individuals no longer
require the maintenance of the sections
of the streets mentioned the part of
Vernon street involved being the sec
tion from Bridge street southwark ?.
300 feet
The streets were laid out by county
court commissions and if they are to
be discontinued they must be diseon-
tinued by the county court The rail
road operations having necessitated a
relocation of Vernon and the taking
of part of Hudson street, this petit
tion becomes necessary. 1t is a petit
ton against the town of Brattleboro,
but it is entirely friendly.
Vernon street and Hudson street
were surveyed in 1866 on petition of
David Goodell and others, and in 1892
ia part of Vernon street was relocated.
1t nothing happens to hold up the
railroad operations Vernon street is
likely to be pretty well discontinued
anyway before the county court can
act on the petition.

Prospective Treaty with Mic
aragua Has Wide and
Important Aspect
FARREACHING STEP
IN FOREIGN POLICY
Senator Bacon of Committee on Foreign
Relations Gives His Approval to
Plan and Republican Support is
Looked for i'll Root and Lodge.

WASHINGTON, July 21.-The adj
ministration S proposal to establish by
treaty what amounts to an American
proteetorate over Nicaragua was gen
orally accepted today as the most far
reaching step in the foreign policy of
the United States since the Spanish
American war.
As President Wilson 5 first piece of
constructive craftsmanship in the realm
of foreign affairs the proposal laid be-
fore the Senate foreign relations com
mittee by Secretary Bryan excited
great interest and much approval.
What was only suspected when the
first news of the proposed arrangement
became public was verified today. The
protective treaty with Nicaragua has
much wider and more important as
peet than the mere rehabilitation of
the finances of that country.
1t involves the possibility of the ex-
tension of this protectorate policy to
and exercise of a more direct control
by the United States over other Cen
tral American countries This became
apparent last night when Senator Bacon
of Georgia, chairman of the foreign
relations committee, made a statement.
He intimated that he probably will
favor the proposal submitted by See
retary Bryan, possibly with some minor
notifications. Mr.. Bacon was the
senator who opposed most vigorously
the Taft policy toward Nicaragua and
his support, it is believed, will insure
the acceptance of the treaty by the
Senate.
The arrangements proposed by Mr..
Bryan are in full accord with Repub-
liean policy and the support of the Re
publicans on the foreign relations com
mittee, including Senators Lodge and
Root, is assured.

apparently, as the Servians, Greeks and

SPEAKERS GAVE
INTERESTING TALKS
Miss Brown Reported Silver Bay Con
ference and Miss White Told of
Montgomery School.

Two intensely interesting talks were
given last night in the chapel of the
Centre Congregational church before a
large audience. Miss Maude Brown
gave in nutshell a very vivid idea
of the Y. w G. A. conference at Silver
Bay, H. l., which she attended IS
delegate recently. She spoke of the
purpose of the conferences and of the
spirit of friendliness and comradeship
which exists at Silver Bay, but said
1T was not necessary to 90 to Silver
Bay to have that spirit. Miss Brown
then introduced Miss Alice White, prin-
cipal of the Montgomery Industrial
school for girls at Mont tgomery. Ala.
who Is spending part of her vacation
with Mr.. and Mrs. George H. Clapp.
Miss White has been in Montgomery
p years and the people of Montgomery
had taken no interest in the work of
the school until a government inspector
and the board of health of Mont ntgomery
visited the several schools last spring
and pronounced the industrial school
to be the cleanest and best kept school
in the city This decision on the part
of the inspector, together with the
singing of the girls, has made a de
cided change IN the attitude of the
people toward the work which Miss
White and her associates are doing
An amusing incident which Miss
White related was that while Mr.. and
Mrs. Clapp were visiting the school
last winter the girls suddenly began to
hold their pencils horizontally in front
of their faces, indicating that they
wanted to sharpen them. Consent was
given, of course. Miss White said
Mr. Clapp sent three sharpenefs to the
school short time before and the
girls conceived the idea of letting him
know that they appreciated the gift.
The meeting closed with an anthem
written by colored young man who
says he owes his Christian teaching to
the meetings of the Christian Endeav-
of society connected with that school.
