SAFETY APPLIANCE LAW UP.
Government Asks for Review of Fed,
eral Court Decision.

In the name of the travelling public
and the railroad employees operating
on transfer" trains, the Department
of Justice today filed with the Supreme
Court of the United States an applica-
tion for a review of the decision of
the federal courts at st. Louis to the
effect that the safety appliance laws
are not applicable to transfer"
trains. These trains consist of cars
being moved from one breaking up
freight yard in big commercial city
to another
The government contends that mas
much as these trains use in most cases
the main tracks, it is important to the
public that they be equipped with
safety appliances so as to avoid
wrecks. In Chicago the federal courts
have held the laws applicable to such
traffic. while in New York the courts
have held that they were not. as was
the case in the st. Louis courts.
A review of the st. Louis decision
would establish rule for all the cities
interested in such traffic.

CHEF WAGNER EXPLAINS.
Tells Why Water Towers Use Was
Delayed at Adams Fire.

Explaining the delay with which the
water tower was put into operation at
the fire in the E. B. Adams Company
store yesterday, Chief Wagner today
stated that it would have been disas-
trous to use this apparatus with the
first alarm companies. Four companies
are ordinarily used to supply the tower.
The fire in the Adams store had to be
fought from both the front and rear.
and the first alarm companies were
given positions at both places so that
there was no opportunity to get the
tower into operation during the early
stages Of the fire.
According to Chief Wagner, the tower
is always held in reserve until it is
found absolutely necessary to use it,
as this apparatus inflicts a heavy wa
ter damage on buildings

c!ared to be conditional contraband. 1t

GAG RULE IN HOUSE
F0R.WAR TAX BILL
Democrats Apply CIoture
Which Limits Debate and
Prohibits Amendment.

\ gag" rule to force the war tax
measure through the House was
adopted today by democratic votes, and
the bill was taken up late in the aft
ernoon. The gag rule limits debate
on the bill to seven hours and pre-
vents any chance of amendment.
The republicans worked up a furious
protest against what Representative
Campbell of Kansas called "the most
iniquitous rule ever adopted in any
Congress-" Representative Garrett of
Tennessee defended the rule and Rep
resentative Underwood, once again the
administration leader on the floor. said
the rule is absolutely necessary to
guard against the dilatory tactics of
the republicans, who have no real
amendment to offer, but who wish to
obstruct the passage of the measure.
Mr. Garrett said 1t is the duty of the
responsible party to act speedily in the
present emergency. and that the bill
had been carefully worked out in COM
mittee.
Mr.. Lenroot Opens Attack.
The republican attack against the
'gag" rule was opened by Representa-
tive Lenroot of Wisconsin, republican
taunted the democrats with having ar
rived at czar-like method of running
the House which had never been dream
ed of under Speaker Cannon. Repre-
sentative Lenroot,> who was one of the
leaders in the great rule fight in the
Cannon regime, said today in the course
of his speech:
nave more respect for Speaker Can
non than for any of the democrats here
who Will vote for this rule. However. 1
Will congratulate one democrat. Speaker
Siark, for having publicly announced
gag rule"
Representative Campbell of Kansas
said:
Another tariff for revenue only has
failed to produce enough revenue to
meet the extraordinary expenses of
the democratic body. We are at peace
with all the world. and yet you impose
upon US war tax. Do you think you
can fool any one:c'
Denies Charge of "Cannonism."
Representative Cantrin of Kentucky.
the democratic member of the rules
committee, denied that his party had
adopted the methods of Cannonism,
and he in turn was answered by Rep
resentative Kelly of Pennsylvania, who
said: This is a gag rule, and no one
will be fooled by it,"
Representative Hobson of Alabama
said he was opposed to the rule be-
cause it prohibited amendments: that
the temperance people of the country
want the bill amended so as to prevent
tax upon beer. Representative Fess
of Ohio, republican, told the demo-
Gratis that in 1898 there had been many
hours of debate on the Spanish war tax
bill, when there was a real necessity
for war tax. He said that Repre-
sentative Underwood, Speaker Clark
and fifteen other democrats now in the
House voted against the measure at
that time:
I'VE are about to be gagged and
bound" said Representative Mann of
Illinois. minority leader, "and yet I am
glad to be here at the funeral exer-
cises Of the democratic party"

Sufficient funds have been obtained
in the town of Dublin. N H., to sup
port two Red Cross nurses for six
months in the European war zone on u
basis of $50 a month each. This news
has been received at the national head
quarters of the American Red Cross in
this city and is in line with the plan
heretofore urged by headquarters that
both organizations and communities
endeavor to arrange to contribute
regularly to the support of the nurses
and surgeons sent to the relief of the
various belligerent countries.
1t is announced as possibility that
two New Hampshire Red Cross trained

Back From War Zone.
That it is impossible to exaggerate
the horrors of the great war now rag
ing in Europe, or the Importance of
raising in America of a large fund to
relieve the sufferings both of troops
and non-compatants, is the declaration
of Ernest F. Bicknell of this city, who
reached his home here today after
landing on the Olympic yesterday.
Mr.. Bicknell was appointed by the
Department of State as Red Cross rep
resentative attached to the United
States cruiser Tennessee now in Eu-
ropean waters engaged in relief work.
He is the first Of the men under AS
sistant Secretary of War Breckenridge
to return from the war zone. and
visited many places in the throes of
war.
1T is impossible for Americans to
conceive either the extent of the war
or the numbers engaged said Mr..
Bicknen today. '"The battle line ex-
tends altogether over thousand miles.
and over many square miles countless
thousands have been found suffering
from CHASTITY wounds.
I'm many cases they have received
rough attention in peasant cottages
only, and in many more none at all.
1t is hard for us to realize that these
cases are flesh and blood men and not
just statistics, but We must, and we
must do all In our power to alleviate
their suffering"
