MRS. GLADYS BURRI'

For the first time since fire threw
! her and her two babies out into The
street destitute, a week ago, glor-
ious smile lit up the face Of Mrs.
Gladys Burris yesterday. Wednesday
she was desperate her children were
hungry, and all were without proper
clothing to cover their bodies. The
outlook for the future was dark.
Yesterday all this had changed.
There WAS silVery tinge to the
gloomy clouds Her happy smile only
partially concealed the CLINT of tears
of thnkfulness that welled In her
eyes She was thankful to everyone
and again believed In the God H.
Heaven.
Hardly had the World appeared on
the streets yesterday morning with its
apepal for aid for this unfortunate
widow and her two little children, when
the procession to her temporary home
42G West First stret started. Last
night she had been provided with p
home for a month. she and her child
ren were plentifully supplied with
proper and warm clothing and the
new found home was literally filled
with provisions of all kinds I'm ad-
dition her purse was well filled and
the Hunger wolf had once more
been defeated in Tulsa And the city
is a better place in which to live.
Eariy Yesterday one merchant found
a home for her, paid months rent
all charges for fuel and told her if
there was anything else she needed TO
call on him. This same merchant put
up box in front Of his store, with
the picture and story In yesterdays $
World Before dark the box was well
filled with money contributions Do2-
ems Of people visited the little woman
yesterday.
She told a reporter that It was the
happiest day of her life; that she felt
able once more to take up the un-
equal struggle to provide a home and
education for her eight year old girl
and four year old son.
The little children. only partially
aware of what had happened hung
around the mother as she received and
thanked her many benefactors. AL
though they hardly realized what II
meant In their eyes was reflected the
Joy and gladness that WAS So plainly
written on the mothers face.
The emotional words OF thanks.
you have made a sad woman happy
and two babies glad" are reward
enough for Tulsa for what this city
did Yesterday.

was given for the support of a strike

ASKS CONGRESS TO
Reverse ACTION
WILSON PERSON ALLY PLEADS
VIOLATION OF THE BALTI-
MORE PLATFORM
PROBABLY Be Granted
Presidents Message Lightly Touching
On Foreign Ailairs Causes Much
Gossip in Capital

WASHINGTON, March 5.-Presi-
dent Wilson went to congress today
and pleaded for repeal Of the provis-
ion Of the Panama canal act which
exempts American coastwise shipping
from tolls lie terscly asserted that
his reason for asking the repeal was
because everywhere except in the U.
S the tolls exemption was regarded
as a violation Of the Hay Pauncefote
treaty, and he further asked 1t IN sup
port Of the administration general
foreign policy.
That the presidents request will be
granted, there seemed little doubt, de-
spite the fact that there Will he Wig
orous opposition in both the senate
and house. Decisive action will be
taken tomorrow, when the house in
tcIstatc and foreign commerce COM
mIttrc viii meet to consider the mes
sage. It was said tonight that this
committee would report a bill TO flat
ly repeal the exemption provision. In
the senate today Senator chiffon, a
democratic member ~ the inter
oceanic canals committee, introduced
nm amendment to tho canal act to
give the president authority to make
or suspend tolls in cases exempted
This would put It up directly to the
president to eliminate the exemption.
Aside from the bearing Of today's
message on the Panama tolls question,
some Of the phrases used by the pres
ideut attracted widespread comment
I'm congressional quarters as relating
TO foreign relations in general. In
some quarters there was disposition
to regard some Of his statements In
the nature Of n warning on the diff
cultles involved in "Other matters Of
even greater delicacy and nearer con-
sequence"
Later in the day, the president him
self. talking with callers, explained
that these phrases had no significance
beyond their bearing on the need Of
rigorous good faith in the Panama
tolls question as an evidence Of un-

FAMINE FEARED IN NEW
YORK CITY FROM SNOWSTORM

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-A steady
snowfall started this morning aug
menting last weeks drifts. The city
is already experiencing milk fam
inc and coal and food shortage is
feared.
Twenty thousand men have been
attacking the drifts since Saturday
and have scarcely made an impress
sion. Half the surface transportation
is paralyzed and heavy hauling is i'm
possible. Sleighs delivered some milk
yesterday, but today even this is fear
ed impossible.
Business is suspended up town.
Manhattan apartments and business
buildings are unable to get coal.
Grocers complain there are no fresh
food stuffs, and they fear a famine.
Three more deaths were reported
this morning as result of the snow.
Jacob Vreeland, of Boonton, N. j.,
suffocated in snowdrift after being
overcome as the result of exertion.
The subways are packed day and
night. Scores of vessels are waiting
outside of Sandy Hook, unable to

HOG CHOLERA COST IOWA
FARMERS 33 MILLIONS

AMES, Iowa, Feb. 16.-Hog cholera
in Iowa cost the farmers $33 900
in 1913. Nearly 100000 hogs died
of the disease and experts say this is
nearly3 35 per cent of the total num-
Der. The loss to Iowa farmers was
two and half times as great as DUR
ing 1912, despite the efforts of the
state and federal government to
stamp out the disease.
These estimates are based on re-
ports from 1920 different men cover
ing every community in every county
in the state, as compiled by Director
w. ]. Kennedy, of the State Agricul-
tural college extension department.
DR.. C. H. STANCE, director of the
state serum laboratory, gathered sta
tistics which show that when healthy
hogs were treated the loss after treat
ment was less than two and one-third
per cent. When sick hogs were treat
ed the loss was between sixteen and
seventeen per cent. But in many sec
tions of the state serious results fol-
lowed the use of good virus and poor
serum. Experts say that provision
must be made for the thorough test
ing of all serum, under either state
or federal authority, before it can be
sold.

SAYS SLEEPER WAS COLD;
SUES RAILROAD FOR $4,000

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. H.
Legal representatives here of May
Irwin, the actress, today were pre-
pairing to bring suit for $4,000
against the Southern Pacific. This
amount, it was claimed, is due the ac-
tress because of illness suffered while
travelling over the company's lines
and which, it was alleged, forced her
to cancel number of Pacific coast
engagements. While travelling from
California over the Southern Pacific,
Miss Irwin's train was held up by a
washout near Dunsmuir, Calf. 1t is
charged that the sleeper in which
Miss Irwin was required to remain
IL hours carried no heat and as re-
suit she was seized with an attack of
