SULPHUR SHIPPING
ON A LARGE SCALE
THROUGH THIS PORT
REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PRO
DUCERs AUTHORITY FOR THE
STATEMENT THAT A LARGE
AMOUNT WILL BE HANDLED.

Whether or not Pensacola gets a
large sulphur-handling business de-
ponds entirely upon the question OF
despatch given several cargoes which
may be handled here. This was the
expressed opinion Of A. A. Fallon,
the Union Sulphur Com
pany, which owns and operates extern
sive mines in West Louisiana, and
which company loaded and sent here
as a possible experiment, the Ameri-
can steamship Frieda, which is now
in the slip discharging q cargo of
more than 1000 tons.
There appears to have been moth
ing to complain of from the first days
work, for last night it was reported
that about 1,400 tons had been dis
charged, the entire lot having been
placed directly ON cars for interior
transportation. A lot viii go to Ten
nessee, while about half the present
cargo is billed for Jacksonville.
The company which ID sending its
several ship loads of sulphur to PEN
sacola owns and operates several
steamers. In addition to the Frieda,
the smallest, which is now here, the
Herman Frasch and the Hewitt (for-
merly the Pacifc), are owned by the
Union Sulphur Company. The Frasch
is now the Sabine, it was stated yes
terday, or is due there, while the other
steamer, the Hewitt, has cleared from
New York for Sabine, and is to load
for Marseilles. 1t is understood the
Frieda will return hence to Sabine
and be back early in next month with
her second cargo.
It all depends, it Is said, on the
handling of the product here whether
or not very good line Of shipping
is built up at Pensacola, and it was
reported that the work done thus far
has made a very favorable impression
with the assistant manager, Mr. Fal-
lon, who is now IN the city. One
thing which is in the ports favor Is
the fact that labor is plentiful, AND
that it is an easy matter to have work
on ship go on uninterruptedly be
cause of the facilities for lighting q
ship at the railroad wharves, permit
ting of the safety Of night work.

UNIQUE DECORATION
BY THE AMERICAN
FIVE FLAGS THAT HAVE FLOAT
ED ABOVE PENSACOLA DUR
ING IT'S HISTORY DISPLAYED.

The decoration of the American Ma
tionaI bank building during the IL,
r. e. A. celebration was unique ana
while it attracted much attention but
few knew the meaning of the flags
fying, one above the other, and sus-
pended from the top of the building.
The flags represented those that
have fioated at one time or another
over Pensacola during its history
Starting at the bottom they were
shown in the order in which they
floated over the city. First came the
Spanish. Above it was the British
flag, and then the French. Then came
the Confederate flag and last and on
top, the American flag.

FAST GAMES SEEN
IN YIN. C. 4. LEAGUE
HIGH SCHOOL TEAM WINS FROM
THE LANGFORDS, WHILE WILL
sON-BIGGs AGGREGATION ARE
WINNERS.

Two more fast games were wit
messed at the Y. NJ. c. A. gymna-
stun last night, the High School VS..
Langford's team, and the Wilson
Biggs VS.. Smiths team.
The first half of the first game was
very close, the score at the end Of
that half being nineteen to fifteen.
However, in the second half, the High
School, by brilliant passing and ac-
curate shooting, piled up a score OF
twenty-four more points, and by
steady guarding did not allow their
opponents a score, making the result
of the game forty-three to fifteen.
The second game between the Will
son Biggs and Smiths team, proved
a very interesting affair. Smiths team
upset the dope in this game by de-
feating their opponents fifteen to six.
The first half was featured by the
close guarding Of both teams, ending
with score of: Wilson-B iggs, three;
Smiths, two. In the second half, the
Smiths walked away from their OPP
ponents, and by scoring six field goals
to their opponents two field goals
brought the score to result mentioned
above. This game was featured by
HorreIl's brilliant guarding, Kahn's
accurate goal shooting, and the all
around team work.
Monday night a real treat is in
store for basketball fans, as the Mont
gomery High School, who are out fol-

are to play the Pensacola High School
team.

OWENS RESIDENCE
WAS 4 TOTAL LOSS
HOME ON EIGHTEENTH AVENUE
CAUGHT FIRE IN ABSENCE OF
FAMILY AND WAS BURNED TO
THE GROUND.

A pretty home, the property Of w.
D. Owens, and situated at the corner
of Cervantes street and Eighteenth
avenue, was totally destroyed by fire
early Thursday morning. No one was
at the home at the time, Mrs. Owens,
1t was stated, being out of the city,
and Mr.. Owens attending the big ball
at the Keyser auditorium.
Trucks were called only after the
flames had burst from windows, it
was said, and after the house was
doomed to destruction. Although the
fire department did all possible to
save the place, it burned to the
ground and chimneys alone, standing
above the blackened ruins, marked the
SPOT where the coy home stood.
The origin of the fire was not de-
terTnined.

Big folk have little folk upon whose

Little folk have lesser folk and follow

In 1907 Sienkiewicz asked me in COM
mon with Meredith Wells and other
English writer's to join in an interna-
tional protest against Germany's brutal
expropriatiOn of Poles in Prussian Poland.
But l cannot find that he has protested
against the Polish boycott of the Jews.

over Europe were published to see that

critic in French magazine, review
ing some Ghetto stories, remarked that
reading them was like seeing the bay,
on whose shore he lived, from the oppo
site curve, so that all his familiar land
marks were reversed or revealed under
a new aspect. Thus his own people, so
serenely conscious of their centralism
were turned into "the heathen," while
their religion, the last word of sweetness
and light, now appeared as a synonym
for hatred and darkness To-day,
Ghetto story, especially if laid in the
Russo-Polish Pale, would reveal the war
for righteousness as an incomprehensible
nightmare in which the Jew, fervent to
pour out his blood and his treasure for
Russia, finds himself bounded and tor
tured between the separate hates OF the
Russian and the Pole, and only saved by
the conquering Kaiser, bringing like Ma
poleon, equal rights for all races.

slackness of the Jewish soldiers who yet
dare to demand equal rights; their Jew
ish-German speech is proclaimed the
obvious channel of communication with
the enemy and this though every at
tempt to establish charges of treachery
and espionage has broken down. Hence
an intolerable situation for the Jewish
soldiers on all the fronts, friction with,
sometimes assassination by, their COM
rades; to the weakening of the Russian
army and the Allied cause; and in Jew
ish towns renewed plunderings and bur-
nings of houses pogroms, explosions,
violations of women.
And yet do not despair. For all the
intelligent classes in Russia have now
discovered that in the Jews Russia pos
sesses a commercial asset more valuable
than all her oil wells, and if the Germans
are not to come back, the Jews must be
given a free hand-and a free foot-in
developing Russia for the common
wealth. And so all the commercial
classes of Holy Russia are now clamor-
ing for the Pale of Settlement to be
abolished The Zemstvos or agricultural
communities of the Empire, and the
Congress of the towns likewise echo the
cry. The very Cossacks demand an i'm
port of Jews into their undeveloped dis
tricts-indeed, Jews are by no means un-
popular among the Russian peasantry;
on the contrary, Russia is the only
country where Judaism gains converts,
the Saturdayites and the new Israelites,
who are stricter than the Jews proper.
must not deny that besides the COM
mercial demand there is also an idealistic
demand indeed, this was plain from the
speeches l have quoted. A very noble
and statesmanlike pro-Jewish manifesto
was published by the intelligentsia in
Russia. The novelists Gorky, Andreyev
and Mereshkovsky are the chief con-
tributors to a book just issued, called
"The Shield" which declares that the
treatment of the Jews is the dishonor of
Russia. l quote some detached senten-
ces from Gorky's Introduction.
"Tt is heavy task--one feels painfully
awkward; suggesting to grown-up and
educated people; Be human Hatred to-
ward the Jews is purely geological or
pathological. The Jews are human be-
ings and therefore they must be free-as
of the glorious, broad, beautiful Russian
soul. One begins to ask despairingly
where really is it's breadth, it's strength,
it's beauty? The situation of the Jews
in Russia is an ignominy to Russian
culture; it is a result of our negligence
toward ourselves. 1t is our conscience
that is blotted by the poison of calumny,
the tears and blood of numberless po-
groms. The Jews are more European
than we, for to begin with, the feeling
of respect to labor and to human life is
more developed in them l admire the
spiritual struggle of the Jewish people,
their sturdy idealism, their unshakable
belief in the victory of good over evil
and in the possibilities of happiness on
earth. The Jews are the old and power
full yeast of mankind. They have always

Law COURT
Case of Blanchard, Admir-, vs..
the Maine Central Railroad
Co., Completed at the Sat-
urday Morning Session

Saturdays session Of the law court
was occupied with the hearing of the
remainder of the Penobscot county
case of Edward A. Blanchard. Admir-
vs.. the Maine Central Railroad Co.,
which had been opened at the Friday
session. Hon. w. r.. Pattangan of this
city argued for the plaintiff and at the
close Of the case court was adjourned
until this morning.
Tho balance Of the Kennebec coun-
ty cases. and the Piscataquis, Saga
dahoc and Somerset cases are In order
for this morning and the Waldo coun-
ty cases are called for the afternoon.
The case Of Blanchard. Admr. VS..
the Maine Central Railroad Co. is an
action for damages for the conscious
pain and suffering of J. Waldo Miles
Of Old Town. who was killed in Au-
gust. 1914. at Old Town when an en-
CINE Of the company ran into an au-
tomobile containing the driver and Mr..
Miles. A verdict of $4,000 was rendered
and the case is before the law court
on motion of the defendant. Raymond
Fellows of Fellows & Fellows of Ban
gor is the attorney for the defendant
company.
The principal claim of the defense
was that of contributory negligence on
the part of the deceased in not taking
the necessary precautiOn in going
across the railroad crossing.
Mr.. Pattangall argued that the neg
ligence on the part of the defendant
company consisted Of three things:
First. in making the crossing at an il
Iofyal n Cnaad. capnn6 in ~
preaching the crossing without ring
ing any bell or sounding the whistle
for that crossing: third. in the failure
to use the gate. He then took up the
question of eontributory negligence on
the part of the deceased and argued
that the occupants of the automobile
had no warning that it was not safe
to cross the tracks and that the de-
PENDANT company would have to prove
some other thing than that the occu-
pants OF the automobile were proceed
ing slowly towards the crossing IL 1t
proved contributory negligence.
The whole case, according to Mr..
Pattangall, rested on the proposition
that the railroad was maintaining
gates at that crossing and abandoned
the use of them at certain hours of
the day. The attorney then reviewed
testimony regarding whether or not
Mr.. Miles was conscious from the time
of the accident at about 100 in the
evening until his death at about 9 the
following morning.
In answer Attorney Fellows argued
that there was no direct evidence of
any conscious suffering of Mr.. Miles
from the time of the accident to his
death, and ne reviewed the testimony
of two doctors on that point.
