Bradbury, of the New Foundland
schooner Rose Dorothea reported to
the owners here to-day that the vessel
had been sunk by a German subma-

American Line Abandons
Intention of Sailing Ships
By lAssncintcd Prcss

New York, Feb. 21.-Shippers who
had hoped to send goods to Europe by
the big steamships of the American
Line sailing from this port received
definite assurance to-day that the
company had no immediate intention
of sending out its vessels. This infor-
nation was derived from notice that
the owners intended to discharge car
goes in the hold of the steamship st.
Louis, which has been lying here
loaded since the beginning of the new
submarine warfare.
The greater part of the crews of the
st. Louis and of the three other Amer
lean liners, New York, st. Paul and
Kroonland, have been paid off. La
borers to-day began removing perish
able shipments in the st. Louis cargo.
Our position in the matter has not
changed at all since the sailing of the
American liners has been indefinitely
postponed said President Franklin,
of the International Mercantile Ma
rine.

 Bills for the past month were read and allowed and other rou- tine business transacted.
 Monthly reports of the Mayor, Marshal, Treasurer and others were received and read. The Mayors report contained a code of rules for the govern ment of council, designed to ex- pedite the transaction of the towns business, which were dis cussed generally and at length. A motion prevailed to postpone action for the adoption of the rules until next regular meeting, r to afford councilmen opportunity to carefully consider them.
 Mayor Raney announced that an ordinance to regulate the du- ties and fees of the town scav- enger has been prepared and is now being considered by the councils legal adviser. This or dinance will be read before coun- cil at the next meeting. Alderman McCrory's resigna- tion as a member of the Mo- Crory Town Council was read. as follows:
 McCrory, Ark, June 5, 1917. To the Honorable Town Council
 of the Town of McCrory: Gentlemen Having been elect ed as School Director of the Nc Crory Special School District, and in order to devote as much time to the same as possible, 1 herewith tender my resignation as Alderman of the Town of Mo- Crory, which I do with no little regret.
 I hope your body will not ex- perience any trouble in selecting another citizen to fill this va cancy, who will be better suited than l. trust that your years s work will be as congenial as those of the past two years in which l have served, and may your body do much good work in improving the town in general. This you can only do with the cooperation of your fellow-cit- iZens.
 Thanking each member for the friendly manner in which we have worked in the past, and wishing you entire success with all your undertakings, and as- surfing you that you at all times have my hearty cooperation, al- though l will not have vote in your body.
 1 Respectfully>submitted, G. c. McCRoRY. The reading of this communi- cation brought unanimous protest and Alderman McCrory was earn estly urged to reconsider his re- signation. A motion was made, seconded and carried that the resignation be not accepted.
 Council adjourned until the next regular meeting.

explanation Of the plat OF the survey
and also stated that II was estimated
that the cost of changing the road
would be about $4,000. Mr. Swartz
said that they had determined the
right-of-way of the Baltimore & Ohio
road by measuring 20 feet from the
center of the track, making the right
of-way 40 feet wide.
AS contemplated, the new road will
be go feet wide, but there is some
question as to the exact width of the
original right-of-way given originally
to the Newark, Mansfield & Sandusky
road, now the Baltimore & Ohio.
The county commissioners conclud-
ed to adjourn the meeting till Satur-
day, Jan. 20, next. At that time the
room of the court of appeals, in the
third floor of the court house, would
be secured. At the final meeting all
of the data bearing on the matter
would be before the commissioners
and all property owners interested
would be heard. There is little oppo-
sition to the project and the question
is to get a satisfying estimate of the
compensation due each Of the now
dissatisfied land owners.

Condition Of Six Year Old
Margaret Nugent
Critical
CLOTHING CONSUMED
Mother, Hearing Cries, Rushes To
Rescue And Smothers Flames
With A. Blanket-Father
Asleep At The Time

Margaret, the six-year-old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson Nugent of
Greenwood avenue lies in critical
condition at the Mt. Vernon hospital,
the result of her clothes catching on
fire Wednesday afternoon about 1880
o'clock at her home when she lit n
match in closet to get some clothes
for which her mother had sent her.
The flames consumed most of her gar.
ments, but she did not inhale any of
the flames.
Mr.. Nugent is employed on a night
shift and was asleep at the time of
the accident. Mrs. Nugent, wanting
something out of an upstairs closet,
sent little Margaret after the desired
article. Margaret went upstairs and
only a few minutes later, her mother
heard a scream and hastened upstairs
to determine the cause of the outcry.
Seeing her daughters plight, she
snatched blanket from one of the
rooms adjoining the hall and attempt
ed to extinguish the blaze which was
rapidly consuming the little girls
clothes. In this she was successful,
but not before the flames had severe
ly burned her daughter.
The neck, chest, front of her left
leg. right side and hip, and the back
of the little girls right leg were
burned badly, her face having been
untouched by the flames, as well as
her arms.
Thursday, it was stated that the
child has chance to survive the ter.
rible accident, but was in a critical
condition. There will probably be
permanent scars on her body if she
lives, but none on her face and arms.
The cause of the clothing becoming
enveloped in flames is, presumably,
that the girl lighted match to see,
as the closet was very dark.
The child was removed to the Mt.
Vernon hospital very shortly after the
accident occurred.

LANSING ORDERS INQUIRY
Recent Death of Luis d'Antin In Mex.
leo Will Be Probed.

EIO WIN DC fTODGus
Washington, Jan. lin compli-
ance with the request OF Mrs. Luis
d'Antin, widow of the former Ameri.
can diplomat whose recent death in
Mexico was surrounded with circum-
stantial evidence pointing to foul
play, the state department started an
official inquiry. State department
agents in Mexico City and San Luis
Potosi were wired instructions to col
lect all evidence possible and forward
1t as fast as possible to the Unitei
States. One of the suspicious circum-
stances surrounding the case is that
some official in the Carranzista en-
ploy dequested that d'Anton accom-
pany Mr.. Arredondo to Mexico. The
latest animosity toward d'Antin by
Mexicans, 1t was said here, probably
was due to the erroneous impression
that he had informed the American
press when Mr.. Arredondo was to be
withdrawn.

COUNCIL Will
PROVIDE SALARY
For Sanitary Policeman, IF
Forced
NO RELIEF IN SIGHT
City Would Only Be Put In Financial
Trap II Has Sought To Avoid
If Compelled To Make
Provision

If advised by City Solicitor ,Koons
that it will be necessary to provide
salary for sanitary policeman, city
council will probably do the same,
stated Charles X. Salisbury, chairman
of the council finance committee, to
a representative for The Banner
Thursday.
Monday night, city council elimi.
mated from the appropriation ordi.
nance the salary Of the sanitary po-
liceman because insufficient allow
ance had been made by the budget
commission for the continuance of
the health department on its present
basis and retrenchments had to be
made somewhere.
DR.. Fl. w. Blair, city health officer,
has declared illegal the action on the
part of council and cites sections OF
the law to support his claims.
Prior to the passing of the appro-
priation ordinance, members Of the fl
nance committee consulted City So.
licitor Koons who suggested that the
policeman's salary might be omitted
He promised to look up the law on
the subject
Chairman Salisbury states that, ii
forced, council can provide money by
issuing certificates Of Indebtedness in
anticipation OF the next tax collec-
tion. This, however. would afford nc
relief to the city financially and is
just what council tried to avoid in the
recent appropriation ordinance.

AGED
WOMAN SUBMITS TO REDUCTION
OF HER FRACTURED ARM
WITHOUT ANAESTHETIC.

Mrs. Mary Fox, 7S, sustained a
broken arm Wednesday afternoon at
her home on West Vine street when
she slipped on the back porch. Ow-
ing to the age of the injured woman,
the injury sustained may prove SER
ious. The right arm was the member
broken, the fracture being near the
shoulder. Another member of the
family, missing Mrs. Fox, found her
on the porch in a stunned condition.
A local physician was called and the
fracture was reduced without the aid
of an anaesthetic, which was quite
remarkable considering the years of
Mrs. Fox.
