TO PREVENT
DISASTERS AT SEA
Congress viii Get Recommen-
dations from Workers for
Safety of Life on Water.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.--Although
ratification of the convention of the
International Congress on Safety of
Life at Sea has not yet been made a
part of the administrative Legislative
program, 1t is believed here today
that prompt action will be taken by
the Senate when the convention is
laid before it February 15.
The recent disaster off the Virginia
coast is expected to hasten action on
the treaty which will serve to make
the ideas of the convention the law
for ships which sail from American
ports. Legislation will be necessary
to penalize violations Of the terms of
the convention, but it is believed that
Congress will act quickly to prevent,
If possible, disasters of this sort in the
future.
The convention goes into great de-
tail on the subject of safety of life at
sea. 1t first takes up the construction
of ships along stauncher lines than at
present., it provides rules for more
careful navigation, and demands bet
ter equipment for steamships engaged
in passenger traffic. Its exact Ian
guage has not been made public, but
L
the requirements will be more water
tight compartments, higher bulkheads
extending these compartments to
higher decks, sufficient lifeboat and
life raft equipment to care for all pas
sengers, wireless on all steamships
and continuous watch by operators.
Wireless apparatus shall have at
least a 250-mile radius and storage
batteries must be provided to take
care of the wireless In case of injury
or flooding of steamers engine
room.
On the subject of lifeboats the con-
vention is most specific. Every pas
senger ship must carry three ''life
boatmen" for the smallest size boat,
and when motor-boat are uesd men
trained to run them must be employed
The convention permits lifeboats that
will carry 210 persons, but 1t is not be-
lieved that they will be found practi-
cal. 1t was pointed out today that
the principal argument against such
large boats was the fact that If one is
destroyed 1t would at once put an ex-
traordinary demand for space on the
other boats.
Another feature of the convention
is the demand for safer navigation on
the high seas. 1t provides for slower
speeds at night and will force the big
transatlantic companies to steer
away from the iceberg regions where
the Titanic met her fate, in times
when such bergs are to be found.

COxey's Refusal to Bury
S0n-in-Law Puts Crimp
in His Proposed Invasion
IFrom a star Correspondence


WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-General
Coxey and his "army" promise an in
vasion of the nations capital this
spring, and the former friends of the
laborless army do not look with pleas
ure upon the promised visit. This is
due to certain matters following the
death of Carl Browne here two weeks
ago. Carl Browne was Coxey's SON
in-iaw and came here with the army
on its visit twenty years ago. He re-
turned to the capital last October and
took up his crusade in behalf of job
less workingmen. The mans mate
honesty of purpose, his high ideals
and his uniform gentleness won for
him friends on all sides, even among
those who did not agree with his
idealistic philosophy and impractical
BILE economic theories. When he died
suddenly. poor and without dollar
for burial purposes, word of his death
was sent to Coxey and other members
of his family, but no word came back.
Had 1t not been for Congressman
Kent and some Socialistic friends here
the body Of the poor dreamer would
have been consigned to pauper's
grave.
1t was right after the funeral of
Carl Browne that word came from
Massillon. o.. where Cexey has his
home, that he intended to gather an
"army" of half million unemployed
men in the early spring and march
upon Washington. Those here who
sympathise with unemployed men,
and they are not all of the SQcialistic
party, do not look with any degree of
pleasure upon the leader of the move
ment because of his neglect of his SON
in-law. They say that Jacob Bechler
Coxey is well-to-do, il not wealthy, at
least he has enough Of this worlds
goods to have helped give decent
burial to Carl Browne, who had served
as his adjutant when the original in
vasion of Washington was made two
decades ago.
Unless some exculpating excuse is
given for his failure to answer the
notices sent him of Brownies death
the local organizations interested in
economics will not extend any glad
hand to the general on his return
here.

CHAPTER VIl-ContInued.

Meantime Florence was walking her
mount slowly. For once the scenery
passed unobserved. She was dseply
e%ngrossed with thoughts, some OF
which were happy and some OF which
were sad. If only her fathey could be
with her she would be TIE happiest
girl alive.
She was brought out of her revery
by the sight OF a man staggering along
the road ahead of her. Finally he
plunged upon his fsce in the road Like
the tender hearted girl she was, she
stopped, dismouited, and ran to the
fallen man to give him aid She sud-
denly found Her wrists clasped in two
hands like sron. The man rose to his
feet, smiling evilly. She struggled
wildly bit futilely.
, Better be sensible" he said. "I am
stronger than you are. And l don't
wish to hurt you. Walk on ahead Of
me-. 1t will be utterly useless to
scream or cry out. You can see for
yourself that we are in a deserted part
of the road. If you will promise to act
sensibly l shan't lay a hand on you. Do
you see that hut yonder, ear the fork
In the road? Well stop there. Now,
march," q
"She dropped her handkerchief, later
her bracelet, and finally her crop, In
hope that these slight clues might
bring her help. She knew that Jones
would hear Of the fire, and, finding that
she shad not returned with the riding
master, would Immediately start out in
pursuit. She was beginning to grow
very fond Of Jones, who never spoke
unless spoken to, who was always at
hand, faithful and loyal.
From afar came the low rumble Of a
motor. She wondered If her captor
heard it. He did, but his ears trfcked
