Whitman Asked
By Mann to Call
Special Election
Republican Speakership
Candidate Wants "No
Unfair Advantage"

Governor Whitman received tele-
gram yesterday from Representative
James K. Mann, Republican leader OF
the House, urging him TO call special
election TO fiji the vacancy caused by
the death of Michael F. Conry, the
Democratic Representative elected last
November from the 10Th Congressional
District in this city.
The Governor announced that he
would call a special election in that
district and would fix the date Monday
on his return 20 Albany. This prob
ably will be about April II. The 10Th
is strong Democratic district, Conry
having been elected by vote Of l3,646

publican.
Mann Makes Point of Honor
REPRESENTATIVE Mann's telegram 10
the Governor read:

ton. The organization OF the House

Harbor Deepening Considered
Governor Whitman remained in the
city yesterday and held several confer
ences during the day. Governor Edge
of New Jersey, f. II. Outerbrdge,
president of the Chamber OF Com,
merce. and Irving T. Bush conferred
with the Governor about the matter OF
deepening the channels of New York
Harbor Following the conference
Governor Whitman said that IT had
been decided to have joint commits
sion with members from New Jersey
and New York to serve without pay TO
take up the proposition of port faciii-
ties. The Governor believes the mat
ter is of great Importance and Is
pleased TO have the cooperation Of New
Jersey.
The Governor declared that he had
no comment 10 make upon the action
of Governor Brumbaugh OF Pennsyl-
vania in holding up the application by
this state for the eXtrsdition OF Harry
X. Thaw. There appears to be feel
ing on the part OF some of the New
York authorities that this state, and
particularly this community, has had
more than its share Of the Thaw bur
den.

Belgian Relief Ship
Sunk; American Saved

London, March l0.-Ofiicial informs-
ton was received here to-day that the
Norwegian steamer Storstad, r Bel
gan relief ship, which had one Ameri-
can citizen on board. had been sunk by
a submarine.
Twenty-seven l..-mbers Of the crew,
including the American, have been
landed. One member of the crew died
Of exposure and others are missing. It
is stated officially that the Storstad
was flying the flag of the American
Commission for Relief in Belgium and
bore the markings designated for the
relief ships.
The London Office of the commission
states that the Storstad carried 10000
tons of maize. badly needed in Bel
GUM. where the shortage as n result
of the detention Of grain cargoes will
soon be felt severely.
The Storstad. a vessel o. 602S tons,
was journeying from Buenos Ayres. On
entering the submarine zone the Stor-
stad was ordered TO put into Los Palmas,
Canary Islands, as she was without
German safe conduct. Later she was or
dered to risk continuation of the voyage
by the northerly route 10 Rotterdam.
The Storstad on May 20. 1914. was IN
collision in the ST. Lawrence with the
Canadian Pacific liner Empress Of Ire
land, which sank with tho loss Of more
than 1000 lives. A commission, headed
by Lord Mersey, held the Storstad TO
blame for the disaster.

In reply to what Mr.. }. c. Lig-
gett has TO say relative to the needs
Of Greene County:
r. gett has for a long time
aaen 0 g of Greene County's best
Zoos eEs, especially along livestock
lines, but in some of his remarks |
am sure he was still feeling the ef-
fects Of the fall from the top Of
his concrete silo, and as soon as
he fully RECEIVERS from the shock
he will gladly retract some Of the
statements that might be mislead-
Ing to people contemplating milking
q few cows.
Mr.. Liggett seems to think we
refused to take his milk because he
had been peddling, but he was mis-
taken. If he were to peddle every
day in the year but one, and he had
iirst-class milk, ana we could use
1t at profit, we sure would buy it.
There isn't milk depot or
creamery in the United States that
would buy milk under such con-
ditions. At the price we pay it has

and ii we had to churn, that would
make pretty high butter, figuring
the loss of skim milk.
Mr. Liggett, nor any other good
livestock man, can afford to let the
skim milk leave his farm when pork
is the price it is, or even less. No
one knows that is true any better
than Mr.. Liggett

permitted on the ground. The first
field marked off was for blowing,

Grated, showing the observers to
what depth the soil was turned I'M
der That the disc pillow lives up
to its recommendation was shown
by the fact that even though the
field selected was covered with
crab grass and other grasses to
a height of II to Is inches, some
Of it even two feet. after the disc
pillow had been sent over it no grass
was in evidence. 1t all had been
turned under. Other fields were
narrowed and seeded

much interest felt by the spectators

made that the school would be re

HOW THE NORTHERN END OF COCH|SE COUNTY STANDS
 0N REMOVAL AND DIVISION

The PrOSpector sent q representative seek ing information over the north end of the coun- ty this week. regarding county seat removal and county division with the following result
 Very little sentiment for county division in Pearce; not for county seat removal.
 In Cochise there was absolutely no senti- ment for county seat removal but strong sentl- ment for county division
 In Wilcox county division rampant and the people there talked to a man against county seat removal and not only that they are anxious to have the county seat of the new coun tv in Wilcox which of course. will result of the division is made Wilcox Is the only ln- corporated city in the proposed new county.
 On this trip representative did not get as far as Bowie San Simon.
 In Johnson and DragOon the sentiment seems to be against county division or county seat removal. although on county division the sentiment in Johnson Is divided. but at Dragoon there was found sentiment strong against re- mOval or division.
 In Pool Benson Robinson St. David and Curtis. they were strongly against both propo- sitons. Wilcox takes the matter strongly against removal, hut their argument iii favor of county division is along the lines that the county will be divided soon and it might as well be now, when 1t will cost less than later on.
 The Wilcox people are ill earnest and want the matter to be settled now and will not take petitions with the Board very shortly. it'is un- derstood The Robinson. Pool. Benson. St Da- vid and Curtis people talking of trying to get the Wilcox people to release them and let them stay with Dear Old Cochise.'' When asked about the name of the proposed new coun- tv both Hunt and Campbell suggested but they will probably decide upon an Indian name
