Charles P. Taft's Times-star TO-
night editoraIly, under the head
ing "ShalI West Virginia Become
Massachusetts Honduras?" says,
in part, the following:
1.-THE action Of. Governor Mccall,
of Massachusetts, in refusing to
honor the requisition papers Of the
Governor Of West. Virginia for a
negro accused of d heinous crime
is fraueht with serious eonse-
quences. Governor McCaIrs e*-
cuse for thus violating faith and
credit in each State to the public
acts, records and judicial proceed
ings of every other State is that
the accused man might not have
a fair trial in West Virginia. In
thus insulting West Virginia and
her institutions. Governor Mccall
may provoke retaliation, which
would mean a break in the reIa-
tons between the two States.
Mere reciprocity for Governor
MccaII's bIunders would cause
West Virginia to become VERT

According to the best information

to have been on his way back to the
Potomac railway yards where he had
been employed 1t is thought that
one of his eyes may have been shot
out, although that will not be def

swept the Atlantic Coast for three
DAYS. Seas were so high Sunday
that life savers were unable to
launch their surfboat, and the wind
blew with such terrific force that
the lifeline shot out to the helpless
men on the stranded craft, fell short
of its mark several times.
When the line fell across the ship
yesterday morning the wind was
blowing 60 miles an hour, but the
shot went true and the men were
quick to grab this hope of life. The
Lawrence and two other harges were
in tow of the o. l.. Helerbcck. \
three barges were torn from the tug
three times by the storm. Twice the
tug recovered them, but the third
time the Lawrence was cast upon tn:
beach, while the tug struggled to res
cue the other two.
The government had authorized the
expenditure at Camp Lee of $1,000
600 in providing such additional
ground and facilities for the training
of the men as is necessary. Training
on an extended scale will be given
the men, and the areas within the
horseshoe will not be sufficient. Ad-
ditional grounds can be secured with
out difficulty, which will furnish space
for rifle ranges, artillery mancuvers,
trench digging and practices of war
fare in general.
