APPEAL is ISSUED FOR

Police Mntron Investigates Case OF
Woman In Need of Surgical Treat

An appeal to the people OF Richmond
matron OF the First Precinct Station,
and Mrs. w. NJ. Bickers, president OF
the w. c. T. u, for assistance in caring
for n worthy and destitute family OF
tho downtown section.
Tho mother is suffering with an af-
Fiction which necessitates an imme-
date operation. She has three small
children, who are entirely dependent
upon her.
The mother secured q place in a
local faetory some time ago and en-
dcavored to leave her children at one
of the day nurseries; but the superin-
tcndent discovered that they were
feverish, and refused them admission.
In her dilemma, tho mother appealed
to the police, and her case was given
the rnatron for investigation. The
womans assertions were found to be
correct in every way. Later, 1t was
learned. that the children had no con-
tagious disease, and could be admitted
to the nursery.
However, the woman's physician adj
vised that she undergo an Immediate
operation, and also that the children
be kept by the mother until 1t is per-
formed. Money Is necessary for the
operation, and the family is entirely
destitute. Mrs. Bickers and tho ma
iron secured food for the woman and
are cndcavoring to assist in raising
funds for the operation and for the
support Of the family until the mother
is able to work.
Either money, food or clothing will

CANAL Is BADLY TANNED
1t VIII Require Mnny Months to Re
move 100000 Cubic Ynrds of
Earth in Latest Slide,

PANAMA, October 1o.-A survey of
the slide area in the Gaillard Cut shows
that probably 100000 cubic yards of
earth must be dredged out before n
permanent channel through the canal
is possible This is the conclusion
reached by the canal engineers, who
concede there is now little hope OF
opening the waterway much before the
frst of the year.
The present rate of wet excavation Is
100000 yards per month, and at this
rate 1t would require ten months TO
remove the mass sliding into the canal.
The area of motion is roughly cal
culated to be in the neighborhood of
1I5 acres, which constitutes the greatest
slide area in the canals history. 1t
extends $500 feet along both banks,
with probably an average OF 1900 feet
back of the center limo of the canal
prism.

corning the probability Of opening a

CONDITIONS NOW WARRANT

conjecture here tonight among base
ball fans as TO whether anything would
develop from the informal meeting in
Philadelphia last Friday night of the
three members off the National Com
mission and men identified with the
Federal League. 1t was learned that
organized ball has not changed its at
titude: that while there are men in the
Federal League who would be- well
coined into organized baseball. present
conditions warrant only two major
leagues
The meeting, which was brought
about by men identified with the Fed
eral League, ended without any UNDER
standing that the informal talk was to
be resumed. Members OF the National
Commission are said to have consented
to meet the Federal Leagucrs because
tho leaders in organized baseball did
not want TO be put in the position of
refusing to listen to suggestions for
bringing about better conditions in the
sport.
