 Text of Letters.
 The letters are signed by Colonel Robert M. Thompson, president of the League, and read as follows: Dear Sir:
 In accordance with the instructions of the Board of Directors of the Navy League, I am hereby appointing you a member of the Membership Com mittee of that organization.

AGREES TO PAY $664, ,OOO
 FOR. TITANIC CLAIMS
White Star Line Proposes Basis on Which to Settle for Losses of
 Sea Disaster in 1912.

New York, Dec. 1S.-The White Star line has agreed to pay $664, 900 in settlement of all claims arising from the sinking of the Titanic on April 15, 1912, when more than 1,5O0 persons were drowned, lawyers for the line announced here yesterday.
 Of this amount approximately $5,OO0,O0O would be distributed among American claimants, $50,000 to Brit ish claimants and 1000 would be required for interest and expenses in connection with the numerous suits.
 Forty-four lawyers, representing that number of persons out of more than sixty who have filed claims against the line, have signified their willingness to accept the settlement terms according to George w. Betts, jr., one of the lines lawyers.
 The proposition grew out of the activeness of the claimants commit tee, appointed last summer and fixed the total claims at $2,500,00O. An about $500,0O0 would be paid di- rectly to American claimants, MT. Betts explained that each one would receive approximately 20 per cent. of his claim. Under no circumstances, he added, will the money be d1strlo- uted pro rata among the claimants.
 If all the claimants. both in this country and Great Britain, agree to the proposition, the White Star line will be released from all further lla- billty growing out of the Titanlc ols-

ocean where destruction of life and property will be kept to a minimum, and the savage business of killing will be kept as far as possible from Amer ica's homes and shores
 To this end it has always advocat- ed navy second to none, which will be able to guarantee absolutely that no hostile army will be able ever to effect a landing upon the shores of our country, and in this demand it be- leves it is backed by unanimous pub lie opinion all over the country. The lost effective testim mony to the popu- Iarity of the cause of the Navy League with representative citizens all over the country is the manner in which it's membership has increased by leaps and bounds within the past few months until at present it numbers upon it's rolls more than 0,000 mem bers.
 Oldest Defense Society
 The Navy League is the oldest and best organized of the National Defense societies. It was founded and char tered in 1902, and among it's officers and members are Admiral Dewey, Theodore Roosevelt, Cardinal Gibbons, Rt. Reverend Philip Rhinelander and Dr. Lyman Abbott, while many of Americas most prominent women are among the members of it's Woman's Section. It's accounts are and always have been opened to inspection. The headquarters of the Navy League are in the Southern Building in Washing ton, D. C., and further information will be gladly furnished upon appli- cation.

naval defenses for this country as shall render our country strong enough to avoid being drawn into the maelstrom of war, or shall render it certain that no hostile army shall ever set foot on our soil should the worst come and our nation be un- avoidably drawn into the strife.
 We believe that the best organized and most potent of the forces working for adequate national defenses is the Navy League, and therefore do not hesitate to urge you as a citizen and a patriot, to lend us your fullest and most enthusiastic aid and co-opera- tion in our work to insure our coun- try absolutely against the possibility of invasion by a foreign foe.
 The Secretary of the committee to which you have been assigned will communicate with you shortly in re- gard to the particular manner in which your assistance will be of most value May we not count upon you to the fullest extent in this great patriotic work?
 (signed) Robert M. Thompson. President of the Navy League of
 the United States.
 Great Interest in Country.
 Great interest IS felt all over thn country in the Navy Leagues sensa- tional campaign in behalf of adequate national defense which has done so much toward the awakening of the American people to the danger or the undefended condition.
 The Navy League is not in any sense a militia rist organization. Since it's foundation more than fourteen years ago it has been foremost in the work for international peace. It's presi- dent. General Horace Porter. was twice delegate to the Worlds Peace Conference at The Hague, and in all it's actions and utterances the League has worked for and advocated peace, but until such a time as the possi- bility of war is reduced to much below it's present ratio it believes that it would be just as unwise for the United States to allow it's navy to de- teriorate as it would be for a house. holder to allow his fire insurance pol icy to lapse because he disa approved of fires and hoped there would be no more of them.
 Water Best Defense.
 The Navy League holds that this country's best defense lies in the three thousand or more miles of wa ter which separate it from the nearest of it's powerful neighbors. Should war ever be forced upon this coun- l try, the Navy League holds,, it's bat 1 ties ought not to be fought by armies on American soil, but by trained l fighting men in ships, far out on the

JAILED FOR THEFT
 COMMITTED IN AUG.
Michael Ward Is Unable to Pay Fine
 Imposed for Stealing Money
From Mrs. Blake.

EFOm MrS. blakc. Michael Ward was fined SIS and costs by Judge Meskill in police court this morning, and this afternoon went to jail in lieu of payment, for a theft committed on August IS, when, it was charged, he stole $11 from the home of Mrs. John A. Blake of High street.
 Since that time Ward has been around the city more or less, and only last month was in court and sent to jail for another offense. Yesterday Sergeant Bamforth was informed that the man who robbed Mrs. Blake was at the library and he arrested Ward there. Mrs. Blake later identified him. Ward stoutly denied the theft.
 Mrs. Blake stated that on August IS she hired Ward to do some work around her house, such as washing the veranda, etc. He borrowed MT. Blake's rubbers to do it and these, softening his footsteps, he sneaked into the house and took the money, it was charged.
 Two employees of the Beaton & Cad well company, Steve Hill and Sam Davis, were arraigned on a charge of assaulting each other. It developed that there had been i'll feeling between the two men for a long time and it came to a head yesterday when Davis objected to Hill showing a new em- ploye some special work. Davis punched Hill in the eye and jaw and the latter picked up monkey wrench and struck his assailant over the head. Judge Meskill fined the quarrelsome Davis $5 and costs and discharged Hill. Lawyer P. F. McDonough represented Hill.

aster. The offer, however, is not con- tingent upon it's acceptance by all claimants. MT. Betts said that all who accept the proposition will re- ceive their proper share. If any claimants do not accept, their cases will be carried on in the courts.
 The agreement which calls for the money to be deposited in a New York bank, is now being circulated among those having claims, and must be act ed upon by December 30 to become operative.

The way in which some of the would-be
tennis sharks slam the ball-sometimes a

sign up with Harris Transfer or Strick-

1t takes more than that to put him out of

The proposed tennis association is in
every respect a great idea. 1t will do
the boys all kinds of good. as well as
to form a meeting place for the racquet
wielders during the winter months.
Judging from the crowds that have been
