AN IMPORTANT MEASURE
AIMS AT STUDY OF IMMIGRANTS.
Social Welfare Committee Report
Filed In Senate.

Boston.-The proposal OF the COM
mittee on social welfare that a COM
mission on immigration be appointed
to examine the status OF immigrants
aud aliens within the commonwealth
has received the o X of the ways and
means committee. The favorable re.
port of the committee was filed In
the Senate.
This is one of the most important
measures TO come out of the social
welfare committee this year. While
the work to be accomplished by the
commission will be dependent large
ly upon the personnel of the commits
sion selected by the Governor, the bill
reported is wide enough to permit a
very full inquiry. The committee
heard enough at hearings to convince
it that the subject is large enough to
demand a full investigation before
any attempt should be made to
remedy conditions with which the
Legislature has not had an oppor.
tunity to familiarize itself.
Another social welfare measure to
receive the approval of the ways and
means committee was the bill provid,
ing for the appointment of commits.
sion to investigate the white slave
traffic.

Many Cases Attended To and Num-
Der of Agents Increased.

Portland, Me.-The annual meeting
of the Main State Society for the Pro-
lection of Animals was held last week
in the Union Mutual directors room.
In his annual address Col. Boothby
said:
This humane move nent is rapidly
spreading throughout not only this
country, but the world, as evinced by
reports we are continually receiving.
In furtherance of the movement in
Maine, the society has followed out
the plan outlined in my last report
of increasing the number of agents
throughout the State, thus giving
greater efficiency and a better knowl-
edge of conditions. The president Of
the Animal Refuge Department, Mrs.
Addison S. Thayer, reported that from
April /, 1912, to April l, 1913, 1882
animals were cared for by her depart
ment-297 dogs, 1885 cats and kittens.
The league also received 20 injured
pigeons, eight squirrels and 10 young
birds, fallen from the nests or other
wise injured.

WANT MORE Time
ON THE CANAL
August Belmont Petitions for
an Extension.
WORK AT CAPE COD BEHIND
Builders Want Eighteen Extra Months
Hearing on the Reasons for
Delay Will Be Given in a Few
Weeks.

Boston.-August Belmont, who is
financing the building of the Cape
Cod Canal. finds that the work can.
not be completed within the time re.
quired by law. Through his Boston
attorneys he has filed with Frederick
N. Wales at the State House a petit
ton for an extension of eighteen
months, which would set the date
ahead for its completion to Decem.
Der, 1915. On this petition the Rail-
road Commission and Harbor and
Land Commission will give hearing
within two or three weeks to deter.
mine whether the petition shall be
granted. The petition is filed in the
name OF. the Boston, Cape Cod & New
York Canal Company, and recites that
many unforeseen physical conditions
have been encountered to make the
construction slow. The sub-con..
tractors have been unable to fulfil
their contracts with the Cape Cod
Construction Company and have been
| released from further responsibility,
and new arrangements have been
made for the prosecution of the work.
In making new subcontracts the
company was unable to secure any
builders who would agree to complete
the work before March /, 1915. The
legal time expires June 3, 1914. Con-
tracts have been signed ON the ba-
sis of March l, 1915, in the hope that
the State authorities who have SUI.
pervision over the work and it's finan-
cling will grant the extra time
1t is estimated by the engineers
that the whole work is about seventy
per cent completed. The total cost
will be about $12,00O,000, and stock
and bonds have been issued already to
the amount of S6,675,O00. Capital is
issued in instalments as the work
progresses. East issue must have
the approval of the Harbor and Land
Commission and Railroad Commission.
and there is pending before those
boards at present petition for ST.
$4,000 in stock and $2,400,000 in
bonds, in addition to the $6,675,O00
previously authorized.

HAS NEW KIND OF SHEEP
Maine to Import Fat-Tailed Breed,
From Armenia.

Portland, Me.-1'his State is to have
a new kind of sheep. So far as
known there are none like them in
the United States. Parties in this
county have taken the matter UP with
the government in regard to bringing
from Armenia what is known as the
fat-tailed sheep, which is noted for its
wonderful food value. These sheep
have tails that weigh so pounds each
and the tails are used extensively for
food, The tails are so heavy that
little carts are made and hitched be-
hind the sheep with the tail upon IL
and the animal hauls his tail on the
cart which enables it to move about
more conveniently.

Augusta, Me.--Governor Haines We
toed the act which provided that the
railroads of Maine should furnish a
5OO-mile mileage book at the same
rate that 10O0-mile books are now
sold. He gives as his reason that the
public utilities board will be able to
take up this question fully and decide
what shall be done.
The bill had been strenuously OPP
posed by the railroad interests before
the committee. The principal argu-
ment was that it would stop the prac-
tice of summer visitors riding at local
fare rates and thus would mean a big
drop in passenger revenues.
