 Action of the New Britain Musicfy
 Union in refusing to give their serv
 gratis when the troops marched a week ago today is still the sub
 of harsh comment. Members of
 union however, have individually
 avowed this action on the part of
 union and placed the blame on P
 dent John A. Dolan and the execuTfCe board. They claim that permission which can be granted by the board, was refused and a threat of heavy fine in case the order was diSObeyed was made. Thus, the musicians had to charge for their services. Union men declare that even though their rules might prevent giving their ser vices gratis no governing board in the country would be small enough to fine musicians for such a show of patriot ism. Certainly the narrow minded action of the local president a. week ago IS one that OOeS not reIleCL any credit on himself or his organization. It is an episode that will not soon be forgotten. Quite the contrary in Waterbury where the musicians free ly gave their services.
 Even though the faculty members of the High school athletic council technically declare there was no real meeting of the council this week at which interference in athletic affairs by the superintendent of school was discussed they are merely quibbling Members did meet. They did talk just as outlined in the Herald's ac- count. It did appear to be the cOun- cil's unanimous opinion not to have the school superintendent interfering with them. Although the faculty may evade the point by saying it was an informal gathering etc., the facts are there and so is the feeling, particular g among alumni members of the school and council as well. The coun- cil has successfully handled the schools athletic interests for many years. They have done as they saw fit and always acted for what they considered the best interests of the school. And to have the superintend- ent of schools try to dictate, if such is the case, and council members feel that it is is certainly ranking. They do right to insist on a free ein as in the past or else cease to act in their present capacity. They have the back ing of the alumni and some of the school board

It is sincerely hoped that actual war With >x xexico will not be necessary to arouse this country to a full realiza- tlon its military unpreparedness. We have had enough illustrations within the last ten days to open the eyes of all intelligent observers.

The threat of war has put the pre- paredness measures on proper basis. Whatever our condition may now be. we are going to be prepared for de- 1ense in the near future if the plans gre carried out. Under the presidents influence the senate committee on naval affairs has constructed a pro- gram of naval extension which will command the approval of the whole country. There is little likelihood of further opposition to a large navy in lhe house of representatives.-N Y YOrk Times.

Not a bad idea, but impossible. Weeks before the war scare was so real, the money was solicited and contracts let Most of the contracts have been filled and the fireworks shipped.

Third Accident in Two Weeks Occurs
Near Richmond
Richmond, Va. Eleven persons
were injured, several OF them ser
iously, when the northbound Florida
Limited No. 10 on the Seaboard Air
Line Railway. crashed through a
trestle spanning Kingsland Creek,
eight miles south Of Richmond. The
engine passed over the trestle in safe
ty but the baggage car leaped from
the track tearing w the ties and rails
and through this gap four coaches
plunged and turned over on their sides
at the bottom Of The 20-foot embank.
mcnt. Fifty-seven passengers were
aboard the train and that there was
not heavy loss of life Is attributed to
the fact that all OF the derailed Pull
man coaches were Of heavy steel con-
struction.
The derailment Of the limited was
caused dl,ectly by the dropping Of
an arch bar on the rear truck Of the
engine as the train approached the
trestle The bar opened a switch
where the track branches off toward
gravel pit. AS the front truck Of
the baggage car struck the open
switch it left the tracks and ran on
the ties distance Of 1000 feet until
it struck the guard rail on the trestle.
This was the third accident which
has befallen the Florida Limited with
in the past two weeks. One Tuesday
OF last week it was wrecked near
Southern Pines, N. c., when Engineer
David X. Wright was killed, and agaiE
on Tuesday OF this week it met with
disaster at Franklinton, N. c., when
the engineer and negro fireman
were killed and other trainmen were
seriously injured.

RATIFICATION.
OPTION ON CANAL ROUTE

and Pays Mlcarauga Government
100000.

Washington.-The senate by q vote
Of 55 to Is ratified the long.pending
and persistently opposed Nicaraguan
treaty, whereby the United States
would acquire a 99-year option on the
Nicaraguan Canal route and naval
base In the Gulf of Fonseca for $3,-
100000.
Included in the ratification resolu
ton was provision declaring that
the United States in obtaining the
naval base does not intend to yio-
late any existing rights in the Fon-
SEGA Gulf Of Costa Rico. Honduras
and Salvador, which had protested
against the proposed requirement.
Five Democratic senators voted
against the treaty. They were Cham
berlatn, MARITIME, Clarke Of Arkansas,
Thomas and Vardaman. Fifteen Re-
publican senators joined the admins
tration forces in support of the treaty
Immediately after the senate had
acted, Senator Chammorro, the Mic
araguan Minister, said he would at
once communicate with his govern
ment and that he expected ratifica-
ton Of the convention by his gov
ernment would soon follow and ex-
changes made to put the treaty in
force.
Senator Clarke of Arkansas led the
Democratic opposition to the treaty,
while the Republican opposition was
headed by Senator Borah and Smith
Of Michigan
During the long debate declarations
were made in the senate that Ger
many had offered Nicaragua more than
had the United States for the canal
route option, and this is said to have
been used as an argument for ratitica-
ton.
Senator Stone, chairman Of the
Foreign Relations Committee, will
call up the Haitien financial portec-
torate treaty next. this to be followed
by the amended Colombian treaty.
Regarding the Colombian treaty there
! Is grave doubt whether 1t can receive

ficatiOn.
