FLAGLER' DREAM TO
UNITE CUBA WITH us.
BY RAIL REALIZED
Ferry Float to Garry Cars
From Key West to Ha-
vana Is Launched at Cramp
Shipyards.

Another step in the realization Of
Henry NJ. Flagler's dream of uniting
the United States with Cuba by rail
was taken this afternoon with the
launching OF a car float at the yards
of the William Cramp & Sons Ship and
Engine Building Company. The float
will upon It's completion be the largest
craft Of its type afioat. 1t will ply be-
tween Key West. Fla, and Havana.
Cuba.
Miss Florence Marie Beckwith, daugh-
ter of J. p Beckwith, vice president Of
the Florida East Coast Railroad Cons
pany. made a special trip here from
st. Augustine. Fla. to perform tho
part of sponsor for the gigantic car
float She named It for the lata
Henry NJ. Flagler. who used his millions
in planning for the joining of Cuba ana
Florida. The launching took place
shortly after o'clock. A host of ship
ping men. officials of the railroad com.
pany and shipbuilding plants were present.
A luncheon followed the launch.
The Henry NJ. F1agler will have a cars
rying capacity of 30 OF the largest freight
cars loaded. The triple expansion. re-
ciprocating engines, capable of develops
ing 1850 horsepower. will carry the craft
from Key West to Havana, distance OF
30 miles, in eight hours. This will res
duce the present running time by several
hours. It is expected in the near future
the craft will carry passenger cars, en-
abling travellers to make the entire diss
tance between New York and Havana by
rail.
Extra precaution has been taken to ip<
sure the safety of the cars which will
be carried on the main deck on four
tracks, while the vessel is at sea.
A warllke aspect Is given the craft
arrangements to mount rapid-hre and
small calibre batteries in order to
make 1t easy to fit her out as transport
or supply vessel in case of necessity.
Besides inaugurating a new freight SER
vice between Cuba and this country, the
craft is expected to increase the oom-
merce between the two countries. Busi-
ness men of Cuba are greatly interested in
the project and have promised to give it
their support.
The hull of the float Is built of steel
and conforms with all of the regulations
demanded in vessel of its type. The
general dimensions are:

WASHINGTON, Sept. PA report was
circulated in official circles today that
the London Stock Exchange may reopen
about October 10, wherefore it is likely
that the New York and other American
exchanges will reopen about FIVE days

sequent to a supposed sounding out OF

as to what aid the Government was ready
to lend toward maintenance Of the credit
OF the United States.
Railroad stocks and bonds will be the
first to be thrown on the market, and
those interested held that IL the Gov

railroad bonds at a fair valuation for
security of emergency currency, great
protection pight be given domestic In

able the reopening of the markets with

BROUGHT TO BARRE HOSPITAL.
Herbert Carpenter of Groton Had One
Arm Drawn Into Machinery

Herbert Carpenter of Groton is at the
City hospital receiving treatment for a
double fracture of the right arm, which
he sustained while working in a saw
mill Wednesday forenoon. Mr.. Carpen-
ter was employed in a mill at Hatch's
pond, near Newbury, when the accident
occurred and his fellow workmen had
to take him to South Ryegate, some
miles distant, before the services OF a
physician could be secured. Later it
was deemed wise TO remove him to the
hospital in this city.
The injured man was engaged in soap
ing a belt when his mitten became
caught in the pulley. Before he could
disengage his hama, his arm was drawn
into the belt between the pulley. The
machinery was quickly brought to a
stop, but not before the arm had been
badly wrencned Dr. G. w. Darling of
South Ryegate put the man in condi-
tion for travel on the railroad and he
arrived in Barre last night. Three doc
tors were called in to examine his arm
at the hospital They found a severe
fracture at the elbow and second break
occurring at the wrist. a three corner
piece of bone was taken from the arm
near the wrist and it was decided TO
have an May examination to settle
the probability OF further injuries. 1t
is believed The arm may be saved al
though a good many weeks will elapse
before Mr.. Carpenter is able to use it.
