EXTENDED EXPRESS
DELIVERY SECURED,
CLUB IS INFORMED
West Richmond and North
Richmond Will Benefit
From This Action.
C. C. DIRECTORS MET

Following recent action of the Com
mercial club, when George Seidel was
appointed to confer with the express
companies, packages are now being
delivered in that part of the city Of
Richmond west of the River and north
of the Pennsylvania tracks. For some
time the companies had refused to
make deliveries in those districts, but
would leave the packages at stores
and other points this side of the
river. Mr.. Seidel, representing the
Commercial club, took the matter up
with the companies and secured the
granting of the extended delivery.
w. H. Quigg, chairman of the COM
mittee on public health, made a de-
tailed report of the committees work
during the last few weeks. For some
time the committee has been consider
ing the establishment of a tubercu-
losis hospital in the county. 1t has
gathered data from similar institu-
tions operating at Dayton, Evansville
and Raybrook.
Tuberculosis Hospital.
This material which has been gath
cred has been distributed to persons
interested. 1t was the sentiment of
the club that a hospital would be a
much needed improvement in the coun-
ty, but the directors were unwilling
to go ahead with the work until a
meeting had been held, which the
citizens would be asked to attend to
give their ideas, so a public meeting
was called for Monday night in the
Commercial club rooms to discuss all
phases of the subject.
The erection of the institution would
mean an initial outlay of between
fifteen and twenty thousand dollars,
with an annual appropriation for it's
maintenance.
An act passed by the last legisla-
ture provides that the county council
of each county, or the councils of sew
eral counties, may make appropria-
tons for tuberculosis hospitals, if a
need exists.
Favor Voting Machines.
The directors approved and affirm
ed the action taken by the board in
1909, when they went on record as
favoring voting machines. A COM
mittee has been Investigating the vot-
ing machines used in other counties
since March. Members of the Com
mercial club appeared before the
County Council this morning and
presented the results of their observa-
tions.
Four new members were voted in
last night. They are Joseph T. Giles,
superintendent of the schools: F. c.
Pickell, principal of the high school;
]. H. Smith, of the National Auto
matte Tool company. and D. NJ Well
ing. of the Richmond Dry Cleaning
company.
The board authorized President
Swayne to appoint delegates to the
convention of the Federation of In
diana Commercial clubs to be held in
indianapolis October and s. AS
this is the time of the Fall Festival
it will be hard to find men who will
serve. so the appointments have not
been made.

GALL|NGER SPEAKS
UPON THE TARIFF
Apostle of High Protection
DenOunces Underwood
Simmons Measure.
(National News AssociationD

WASHINGTON, Sept . Quoting
Washington, jefferson, Madison and
Andrew Jackson to show that they
favored the policy of protective tar
ducers, Senator Gallinger. of New
Hampshire, regular republican leader
of the Senate, today assailed the I'm
tariff bill which
seeks to levy a tariff for revenue only.
Thomas Jefferson, patron saint of the
Democratic party, he said. signed
three tariff acts increasing protec-
tion to American manufacturers.
Jefferson carried his devotion to
American industry so far" said Sena-
tor Gallinger, that he expressed n
wish the Atlantic Ocean might be a
lake of fire to exclude absolutely for
eign goods. 1t was that great Demo
crat. Andrew jackson, who threat
ened to hang as high as Haman, the
merchant in South Carolina who
sought to nullify United States tar
hA Ia" oI tlC ooscItCu
that protection to American industry
was unconstitutional"
ls Southern Policy.
Senator Gallinger declared that the
agitation against the protective tariff
system and in favor of a tariff for rev.
enue only was a heritage of the po-
litical contest between the North and
South over slavery. The main sup
port of the tariff-for-revenue-on pol
icy in America has come from the
Southern States and from New York
City and that neighborhood where the
influence of importers representing
European manufacturers is powerful, -
said Senator Gallinger.
After showing that the country did
not prosper during those years when
q revenue tariff law was in effect
and that prosperity returned to the
country after the readoption of a pro
tective tariff policy just before the
Civil War, Senator Gallinger quoted
from the writings of President Wilson
to show that he had favored free
trade for many years.

NEW HAVEN, Sept. 2.-The
New Haven railroad added one
more to its frightful series of
fatal wrecks on the sand plains
a mile north of New Haven sta
tion today, when the first sec
tion of the White Mountain ex-
press, southbound, crashed into
the rear end of the second sec
tion of the Bar Harbor express,
standing on the track, cutting
swath through two Pullman
sleepers from Portland, Maine,
and partly telescoping a third
sleeper, killing at least fifteen
passengers outright and injur-
ing two score others. Three of
the injured died a few hours
later at hospitals, making the
total known dead eighteen.
The identified dead up to moo mare:
r. A. Hotchkiss, son of Learnard
Hotchkiss, a New Haven broker.
n. II. Martin, Bryn Mawr, Pa.
K. T. Iami, a Japanese, address un-
known.
Harold Avery, New York city.
Robert Yahn, Philadelphia.
Albert Green. New York city.
William Autschul, Norfolk, Va.
Frank b. Butler, vice president of
the Scranton Bolt and Nut company.
Scranton, Pa.
Worst in Roads History.
The wreck was one of the worst in
the history of the road in point OF
horror. Two heavy Pullman sleepers
were ripped wide open. The passen-
gers in the sleeping cars were nearly
all just getting up for the day.
The bodies of the dead were torn
and mangled in the wreckage or hurled
into the air, many of them landing in
a nearby melon patch.
The injured were scattered in the
wreckage and strewn along the track.
One little boy was hurled into the
air and his body later found on top OF
the engine, which caused the wreck.
Even the telegraph wires were litter
ed with clothing and the furnish
ings of the cars.
Identification Is Slow.
Identification will be very slow ow-
ing to the fact that clothing and be-
longings were separated from the
bodies.
The Bar Harbor express running
an hour late had stopped at a banjo
signal, a part of the antiquated sys-
TEN used on this division. Engineer
Miller who was on the White Noun
tain express. says that he saw no flag
man and heard no torpedo and in the
dense fog could see nothing until he
suddenly discovered the signal light
against him and applied the emer-
gency brake, but too late to avoid the
collision.
The engine, one of the new super
heated Moguls went through the
Pullmans with little or no damage to
its own parts.
Both trains were loaded with pass
engers returning from the Maine and
White Mountain resorts for the SUM-
mer.
Signals Were Condemned.
Signals had been condemned fol-
lowing a wreck on the line of the road
between this city and Hartford. by
the Connecticut state utilities COM
mission. II was recently announced
following the series of wrecks on the
road that the signal system would be
changed.

istration Of President Howard n. El-

the Youths Companion.
1t is disagreeable to wash dishes.
Even mothers, who do most things
cheerfully, will sometimes pass the
dishes on to youthful and unwilling
hands. The schoolgirl invariably has
other things to do. and the dishes are
10 insistent! Even when stacked in
the sink they look reproachful. Left
in disorder on the table. they glare at
you every time you pass. and. hanging
over your head when you are playing
tennis or finishing a book. they loom
like a thundercloud. II just dread to
get at Them" you say. and the dread
grows greater every time you think OF
them.
But is doing the dishes as bad as
dreading 1t? To scrape of the leftover
food. to pile spoons with spoons and
plates with plates. to have sparkling
lather Of soapsuds and hot water, to
tackle the dishes in the order of their
cleaniless instead of inversely or hap
hazard. to hang up the towels and see
clear sky spanning golden after
noon - surely there are worse things
than that! Washing dishes, like many
other disagreeable jobs. requires no
concentration. The mind is free to
dwell on pleasanter things.
The sense Of freedom and the feeling
of self righteousness that follow the
prompt washing Of the dishes are
enough to raise the humble task into
a fine art and insure that 1t be done
not quickly. but well. There" said
one valiant girl hanging up the dish,

to do them that gets on my nerves"
That. as all who know will admit. was
hitting the nail squarely on the head.
