and assistant marshals will walk. This
question mas peen thoroughly threshed
out by Chief Marshal Holstein and his
staff. The general opinion prevails
that firemen on horseback make a
fremen's parade rather odd. 1t is
also proposed to have autos for the
veteran firemen.
Because of limited quarters, Chief
Marshal Holstein will use his offices at
420 Market street only for parade
business after next Monday 1t is
probable that he will open up an office
in Chestnut Street Hall. This will
enable him to take care Cf the visit

tribution of badges. The State secre-
tary, w. w. Wunder, will also open
headquarters at Chestnut Street Hall,
He will check up all delegates who

the survivors of the British freight

struck mine late Monday night off
the North coast of ireland and sank.
Captain Payne and thirteen of his crew
were drowned while thirty others were
saved by the trawler Second Officer
Gee told the story of the disaster. He
said:
''The explosion occurred twenty
miles north of Tory Island on the main
trade route from Manchester to Cana
da. The ship began to sink at once
and was beneath the waves seven min
utes after striking the mine.
'The officers and crew exhibited the
greatest GOODNESS under the circum-
stances. We were able to launch only
one lifeboat when the ship gave a sud-
den lurch and went down. The captain
and officers who were at the moment
preparing to launch the other boats
were compelled to jump into the water
to try and save themselves by swim
ming to the single boat already launch
ed. Several of them were carried down
with the ship.

SAN CARLOS RESERVOIR IS
 FAVORED BY ARMY EXPERTS

Washington D. C.-The report on the San Carlos reservoir and irri- gation system by the board of army engineers made public today recommends that the project be con- structed by the United States for the irrigation of 9O,QOO acres of land, 35,OOO in the Pima Indian reser vation, and 55,OOO acres of private lands, at total cost of $6,311 900 or about $7O an acre, payable in twenty years, with interest at per cent.
 The army engineers also recom- mend adjudication of water rights by a suit in the federal court. The re- port consists of about 150 type written pages, IA tracings and IS photographs. Special plates will be necessary so that the report will probably not come from the printer for a month or more.
