PLAN INDOOR OCEAN

Syndicate" Would Convert Mad
isOn Square Garden Into
a Huge Pool.

The call OF the sea and its sad, sad
waves will be absolutely out OF the run
ming If plan on foot for the construc-
ton Of a gigantic natatorium in Madison
Square Garden is carried out. At least.
that is what one is led TO believe by the
enthusiasm of representatives OF a syndi-
cate that has the matter in hand.
The plan has crystallized to such an
extent that the officials OF the Department
of Health have been approached to know
if there would be any objection TO such
an undertaking. At the department il was
said yesterday that those who are pro-
noting the scheme have not revealed
their identity
There are several features to the plan.
One of these is an imitation beach. with
stucco structures, such as those at Coney
Island. A beach around the edges, too,
might be expected to figure in it. On this
the bathers might roll around, get full
OF sand and then plunge again into the
ocean
a strong electric light might serve for
the sun, but there was some mystery as
TO what would bring on a tan.
At present there is no department regu-
lation, It was learned, which would
hinder both sexes bathing in an indoor
tank If the persons behind the project
meet requirements they may get permit.
Such a problem has never come before
the city health authorities. They have
had to pass on public baths and on tanks

M'ADoo OBJECTS
TO SUBWAY PLAN
Arrangement for Easement Under

Board Puzzled.

William G. McAdoo Secretary Of the
Treasury, as custodian Of the Postotfice
Building, has objected 10 the Public Ser
vice Commissions plan for carrying one
of the branches of the new subway sys-
tenn under the building. The city has
asked the Treasury Department to grant
an easement under the building for the
branch Of the Seventh avenue line, which
must be carried from Park Place TO
Beekman street, on its way to William
street
The objections are likely TO cause con-
siderable delay SO serious does the Pub

ference of the committee, the commission
and representatives OF the Interborougn

was not satisfactory. III might ne Hcts5-

necessary for the government to consult
engineers here. and asked If the commits

stood ready 10 meet tho expense. An
appeal was made to Secretary McAdoo.
He replied:

in a position to give the matter further

Or. George o. Welshman, OF No. 205
Mount Prospect avenue. Newark. n. ].
While attempting 10 cross the I.acka-
wanna Railroad tracks at North Grove
street East Orange, in his automobile Il
was struck by the eastbound MorristoWn
express.
This accident came FIVE days after
Mayor Julian Gregory and the East Or
ange Town Council had served notice on
the railroad that it must either elevate
or depress its tracks at this point within
ten days So intense is the feeling over
the killing that it is probable there will
be a mass meeting 10 demand action in
East Orange this evening.
Grove street is one block east of the
East Orange station. The police say that
when DR.. Welshman, driving a runaoout,
approached the crossing no attempt was
made by James Rogers. the gateman, 70
lower the bars, although the Morristown
express was coming on at fifty miles an
hour
Rogers says he started to drop the
gates when he saw DR.. Welshman, but
the physician speeded his car and slid
under them. The locomotive ripped the
automobile apart and hurled DR. Welsh
man fifty feet into the air over Rogerss
shanty He fell into the roadway. Death
had been instantaneous.
The gasolene tank from the automobile
knocked Rogers from his feet For one
hundred yards the automobile was
dragged along. One of the wheels be-
came wedged under the fourth car, which
was derailed and bumped over the ties.
while passengers became excited and
women tainted.
When the police got TO the scene they
informed County Physician Mckenzie and
then rounded up several persons. who de-
clared that Rogers had done nothing to

prevent DR.. welshman's crossing tho
tracks. When this was reported to Louis
Hood, County Prosecutor, he ordered the
arrest of Rogers.
In 1912. when Mayor Gregory took office,
he wrote to William II. Truesdale, presi-
dent of the Lackawanna, saying he would
hold the railroad responsible for accidents
at this crossing.
The East Orange Town Council decided
on Monday night to ask the Public Utili-
ties Commission to demand that the
tracks be depressed. and a few days later
received a letter saying that action would
be taken.

Two models which show how the
government sells its timber have just
been prepared in Washington. for dis
play at the forest products exposition.
to be held in Chicago, April 80 to May
These models represent an acre of
forest Of the southwest before and af-
ter logging.
In the model showing the stand be-
fore the lumberman goes into it the
trees range from those only a few
years old, to large. oVermature, stag
headed individuals more than ready for
the AK. In the second model the ma
ture trees and all others larger than
a certain diameter have been cut down
and made into logs and cord-wool In
this, as in all other government sales,
necessary waste, logs are taken to a
small diameter we'll up into a tree, and
such material as is not fit for lumber
is converted into cord wood. Togeth-
er, the models show the care which the
government requires of lumbermen in
Telling old trees so that the young
growth is not injured. The brush is
piled in heaps for burning after the
lumber has been removed, in order
that the fire menace which foresters
say usually follows numbering may be
done away with. The models are on
a scale of about one inch to five feet
so that trees approximately 100 feet
tall are about twenty inches high in
the models.
