WHY RATES WERE RAISED.

An important effect of the operation of the new seaman's law. apart from the feature that requires tho employ ment of high priced labor. Is the added expense Of maintenance in other depart ments that 1t places on American car riers. The steamship lines in the Seat tls-Alaska trade have recently given no- tice of q raise in rates on account Of Inc expense of complying with the law in reference 10 life boatage and extra watches. as well as on account Of the special conditions brought on by the war. Seattle lines. Il Is announced. will be obliged to expend approximately s5oc0- GO 10 comply with the requirements.
 Alaska freight rates have therefore been advanced from sl to 8 per ton. and passenger rates have also been raised slightly The statement is made by shipping interests that even with the advanced rates. ships sill be ops orated at A less net profit than under the old conditions
 Alaska lines have been hard hit by the La Toilette law, and they have met these losses in the face Of tempting Of. fers from Atlantic interests to purchase The larger ships at two or three times the values of the vessels TWO years ago.
 In the present conditions of Alaska development the loss of these carriers would have been n great blow to Seattle trade. This trade has survived many hazards In it's years of upbuIlding. but none more serious than that imposed ty the new shipping law and the cmcr- gent condtlona.-Ex.

Eording secretary, Joseph Donlon;

being the proposed change in the
building, which if acted upon favor
ably following the committees re-
port, will mean the extension of the
Front of the structure to near the

fast growing membership makes it
imperative for the society to seek
humber of changes in the building.

Peter Crowley, whose parents re-
side on Franklin street. formerly en-
ploycd at the Hotel Beloin and who
enlisted in the British army about a
year ago. is now a prisoner Of war
at Wurzberg, Germany.
In a letter written to Alexander
Houck from the German detention
camp on September Is, young Crow
ley says that during an engagement
on August 8 he was wounded in the
arm and was later made a prisoner
of war. He says that the Germans
treat him and the other prisoners
we'll ana the only serious trouble he
encounters is making known his
wants, as he cannot talk the German
language. He also writes that at
the camp he met a German who
formerly lived in New Jersey.
Among other things, young Crow
ley says that he is hard pressed for
cash and would appreciate some
money He writes that he would pre-
fer some smoking tobacco but owing
to the high duty charged on this lux
ury the money would be more ap-
plicable. He concludes his epistle by
warning his friends not to write to
him on war topics or to ask for in
formation regarding The same. The

MAIN AND CHURCH
STREETS ASSURED
Will Have White, Way Ready Before
December 1S-Other Streets
Held Up.

City Engineer William H. Hall
learned today that owing to a de-
lay in the arrival of a load of light
ing standards 1t may be impossible
to have the new white way system
on West Main street, Arch street and
East Main street ready for use by
the Christmas holidays. However,
the engineer has assurance that the
whole of Main street and Church
street will be ready by December IS
at the latest and it is very probable
that these lights will be ready several
days in advance of that time.
In case the new standards for the
white way on the above named
streets do not arrive in time for the
holidays the present system will be
used in those sections. All day yes
terday the lighting company had q
gang of men at work laying wires and
connecting lights end so cold was
the weather that the men had to
take shelter as they worked behind
blankets arranged tent fashion.
The General Electric conn any has
notlhed the city engineer that in
order to be sure that the two recti
fiers, which must be installed at the
power house before the white way
system can be used. arrive in time
they will not trust to the slow NOV
ing fre1ghts. Instead, on December
l the company will load the appar
atus, weighing four tons, onto two
auto trucks and drive them to Bos
ton. There will be Immediately sent
to this city via Adams Express. These
rectitiers were ordered on June 80,
imm ediately after the council au-
thorized the change in the lighting
system, but owing to the large num-
Der of orders ahead it was not until
the present time that the New Brit
ain order could be handled.
City Engineer Hall today orl,ered
the removal of all hitching posts in
the white way district that are near
the lighting standards.

AID MEN ARE "LOST.'
Duty OF Church to Rescue Them Says
Pastor.

At the Peoples church, Court street,
yesterday was a very interesting day
the last of the preparation for the
coming of Singing Evangelist
Greenwood. A baptismal service, fol-
lowed by a Bible reading on Com
passion" by Pastor Hartman, lifted
the spiritual interest to a high level.
The climax of fervor and consecra-
ton to the Greenwood meetings was
reached as the large assent bly, cele-
DRAFTED the Lords Supper.
The same hopeful and expectant
tone was manifest at the Young Peo-
ple's meeting before the evening SER
vice, the young people showing great
interest in the coming special meet
ings
Pastor Hartman preached in the
evening one of the most impressive of
his long series on "Revival"-the spe-
cial topic being the relation of "con-
victions' to power and success in the
Christian life and in revival work
Two points especially were empha-
sized and illustrated: Men are lost,
and it is the first business of Christ
ians and the church to go out and find
them and bring them to Jesus. There
were many moist eyes when Pastor
Hartman closed his impassioned ap-
peal for convictions and conservation
to this work of soul-saving.
The Greenwood meetings will be
held till further notice. beginning to-
morrow afternoon at g. and evenings
at 7:45 o'clock. Thanksgiving day
but one meeting will be held, at in
stead of 7:45. In the forenoon of that
day Mr. Greenwood will be heard in
song at the Union Thanksgiving SER
vice at the First church, assisting
Pastor Hartman of the Peoples
church who will be the preacher on
that occasion.
