NEAR EAST RELIEF
 DRIVE FOR CLOTHING
New Headquarters Have Been Established in
 Hartford

Connecticut is taking an active part in the work of the "Near East Relief" Incorporated by special Act
 of Congress) formerly the American Committee for Armenian and Syrian
 relief. Headquarters have beer established in Room 31 of the Hart. ford Trust Building at Hartford
 where Prof. M. w. Jackson, State Chairman and Mrs. E. H. McDonugh State Secretary, are working daily and diligently to relieve the suffer ing Armenians. Old clothes and funds to help carry on the work can be sent to this office. This important work of reconstruction includes not only the clothing and feeding of hundreds of thousands of stricken people, but also the care of more than 300,0O0 Armenian orphans.
 While the work of the Near East Relief is not of political nature, it was stated by one high in authority in this relief work, that the time had come when politics and philanthro- py must go hand in hand for the attainment of successful results.
 Governor Holcomb of Connecticut has just issued the following ap- peal to Senators George B. Mclean and Frank Brandegee urging them to support all the measures at Wash ington for Armenian relief: ''In spite Of the fact that almost year has passed since the signing of the ar mistice, the Armenian people contin- ue to suffer, as before, all the hor- TOTS of famine, homelessness, vio- lence, murder, persecution, exile, and imminent massacre; thousands of Armenian women and girls are still enslaved by Turkish, Kurdish and Arab masters: while the Armen- ian people in general are now practi- cally without means of defending themselves, the Turks, Kurds and Tartars are equipped with arms and ,emboldened by the lax attitude of the Powers are threatening to com bine in an attack upon the Armenian Republic and upon all the Armeni- ans of Transcaucasia.
 Outrageous situations of this kind have always been abhorrent to the American people, in fact America entered the war for the express purpose of putting an end to them: these things being so, and there Being now before the Senate two bills, one the Lodge Bill in favor of an Inde- pendent Armenia, and the other. the Williams Bill, referring directly to the present crisis, and recommending that we lend to Armenia some kind of military aid, it does seem to me that to refuse aid to this heroic people at this time would be to betray the principles for which our men fought and died, and to incur lasting national dishonor."
 Ex-president William Howard Taft of New Haven sent the follow ing telegram recently to a confer ence of Near East Relief workers giv- ing his hearty endorsement to this important work. He wired: ''I sin cerely hope that in the inevitable reaction from the generous and sac rifcial spirit which our people mani fested during the war the poor people of Armenia will not suffer and that your most worthy appeal for further assistance to carry the Ar menians through until next harvest may find satisfactory and adequate response"

MAY LOWER INSURANCE RATES.
The Tests of Water Pressure in Barre
Were Generally Good

}. $. Caldwell, engineer for the New
England Insurance company, and two IN
spectors of the same company, contin-
ued their inspection and testing to-day.
but instead of the water mains, the fire
department and equipment, as well as
the fire alarm system, were subject to
very thorough examination by Inspectors
j. f. Driscoll and A. F. Wright. The flow
and pressure tests in various parts of
the granite district and mercantile see
tion, especially along Main street showed
a decided improvement over former tests.
Though in places the water supply was
insufficient, most tests proved satisfac-
tory and at several of the hydrants a
very heavy flow of water responded to
the test. A demonstration of the re-
suits which could be obtained in pres
sure by throwing the force of the Boil
ster and Orange reservoirs on together
was demonstrated under the supervision
of Engineer Caldwell, and produced a
wonderful pressure with IL streams
along Main street open.
Though il cannot be learned as yet
whether or not the improvement viii re-
duee the insurance rates, Mr.. Caldwell
stated that the results obtained would
very probably induce the Barre and
Montpelier committee of the New Eng
land Insurance exchange to sanction such
a change at the next meeting in Bos-
ton

MAY FLY TOMORROW
If Engine Trouble on NC-4 Can Be Ad-
iusted in Meantime.

Ponta Delgada, May 2l tBy the Asso-
ciated Press Engine trouble caused
the postponemeut to-day of the fight of
the NC-4 from Ponta Delgada to Lisbon,
which it had been planned to start at
daybreak to-day. The crew boarded the
plane two hours before sunrise to tune
up the motors, After making three un-
successful attempts to take Off with one
engine ftmetioning improperly, Lieuten-
ant Commander A. C. Read decided that
il was too late to remedy the trouble
this morning in time to make the fight
to Lisbon in daylight hours.
Commander Read is confident that the
engine trouble is not important and that
il win be remedied in time to begin the
flight to Lisbon at daybreak tomorrow,
weather permitting.
Crowds of souvenir hunters who tried
to get pieces of the NC-3, the flagship Of
the fight which is moored in the harbor
here, made it necessary to-day for the
naval authorities to issue orders that
the ship be guarded day and night

CASES IN SUPREME COURT.
Several Heard or Submitted on Briefs
Yesterday and To-day.

When the case Of Lamoille County
Savings Bank and Trust company was
completed in supreme court Tuesday aft
ernoon, the arguments in the case of w.
H. Hobbe and Son vs.. the Grand Trunk
railway occupied the remainder of the
afternoon. In the lower court the plain
tiff recovered a verdict of 5000. The
case was originally before Justice Hasel-
ton and was argued yesterday. II was
expected that the case Of the Farmers
exchange VS.. the Walter Lowney COM
pany and George II. Cross company, H.
il. Howe and company and c. II. Cross
and Son trustees, would be argued, but
the attorneys finally agreed to submit
il on briefs. It was another of Justice
Haseltons cases. In the lower court a
verdict for Ss9l.20 was recovered by the
plaintiff.
This morning the only argument that
occurred was the Orleans county case of
Wilfred St. Marie VS. +. O. Wells, which
was the result Of the defendant selling
the plaintiff a farm The lower court
gave the plaintiff verdict of 1904.
The Washington county case of John
L. Spauldng, administrator, VS.. the Mu
tual Life Insurance company was to
have been argued after the above case
but the attorneys were busy in county
court so that recess was taken until
? o'clock this afternoon and the last
named case will be argued tomorrow
Justice Slack was disqualified in the
Orleans county case. Judge S. r. Moul-
ton of Burlington sat with the other
members of the supreme court. It was

HOPE VIRTUALLY ABANDONED.
That Hawker and Grieve May Have Been
Rescued.

st. Johns, NJ f., May 2l--Hope for
the safety of Harry G., Hawker and
Commander Mackenzie Grieve, missing
since they set out eastward through the
air on Sunday in their Sopwith biplane
for Ireland, was virtually abandoned to-
day by the British fliers preparing here
to take wing in their wake News of
the safety of the NC-3 after being so
long on the water had been source of
encouragement but il is recognized that
the Hawker Grieve machine carried only
cockle she'll emergency boat as com
pared TO the stout hull of the American
naval plane.
Undaunted by the Sopwith's disap-
pearance, which must be taken into con
sderation as part OF the hazards of
trans Atlantic fight, members of the
other cross.ocean expeditions to-day con-
tinued to mature their plans for flights
with the next full moon, three weeks
hence From Harbor Grace came word
that the Handley Page super bomber
would be in the air within ten days in
stead of fortnight, as the operations
of assembling this machine are being
expedited.
Captain Alcott of the Anglo. American
team, which will attempt fight in a
Vimy bomber, expects the latter ma
chine to reach here Friday. While here
he will use as his base the Mount Pearl
plateau airdrome vacated by Hawker.
Flying light to Harbor Grace he will
there take on full load of S65 gallons
of gasoline before hopping off," His
plane will have range of 2,440 miles.
Captain Alcott said to-day that he would
carry as life saving equipment only an
infatable vest, as he considered other
contrivanees of such doubtful value that
he would not burden his machine with
them.
Regarding the fate of Hawker and
Grieye some Of the armen here believe
the Sopwith collapsed within short
time after leaving st. Johns, and that
the wireless collapsed. The opinion is
gaining ground that the field ice and
bergs extending for one hundred miles
off the coast may have affected the work
of the engines through the intense cold
congealing the OIL The American air
men who flew to Trepassey from Rocka-
way, N. Y, found that this condition

SEVERE FIGHTING ON.
Between Poles and Ukrainians in East
ern Galicia.

Vienna, Tuesday, May 20 tBy the AS
sociated Press Severe fighting is in
progress between the Poles and Ukrain-
ians in eastern Galicia, according to
reports received here from the district.
Commenting on the situation, NJ. Holu-
bowicz, premier of the West Ukraine, in
a statement telegraphed here, says:
"The insane policy of the allies in
supporting the Poles is responsible for
the situation. The allies stipulated that
General Haller's army should not be
used against us, but it is being done.
Premier Paderewski is making comedy
threat of resigning because of being un-
able to keep his promises"
The premier's statement concluded:
May the blood of thousands of Poles
in the Ukraine be upon the heads of
those who are directing or permitting
the attacks and the destruction of the
Ukraine's hopes to be free"

HEDDING CHURCH NET
ITS QUOTA IN DRIVE
Amount Desired Was Raised in Three
Days-Canvasser Worked with
Much Enthusiasm.

In three days the Hedding Methodist
church drive in the great campaign to
raise centenary fund of $l05000000
among all the churches of the denomina
tion went "over the top" the announce
ment having been made this morning.
The quota of the local church was $3,26l
for each year of five-year period, and
the subscriptions already tabulated show
total of So 32S9.95 for each year. Some
contributions are coming in yet, and it
is expected that the amount will be con
siderably increased.
This announcement of the success of
the local campaign thus early in the
drive came after hope was once deferred,
and it came about in this way. When
the teams met last night to make report
it was stated that the goal had been
reached, after which the workers went
home. A few, who remained, checked up
the amounts and found that an error
had been made, SO the total amount was
still short. Not daunted, however, the
workers went out and returned with
enough subscriptions to bring the amount
over the top for certainty, as the
amount stated above testifies.
Much of the success of the local drive
has been due to the energy and enthu-
siasm Of George E. Maker, the chairman
of the Hedding church campaign, as well
as the chairman of group of churches,
embracing johnson, Williamstown, Barre,
East Brookfield, Plainfeld, Groton, West
vile, Adamant, Waits River and Brad
ford. Chairman Maker makes his report
each night to Fred r. Clifford of st.
Johnsbury, chairman Of the district. Re
ports from the above mentioned towns
are coming in slowly but it is expected
that all of them will be able to report
success.
In Barre the teams have met each
night of the campaign, beginning with
Sunday, the purpose of the gathering
being to compare notes and check up the
amounts subscribed The teams were
made up as follows; DR.. J.. D. Martin
and A. A. Boyce; c. $. Andrews and
G. II. Kenerson; Glenn G. Carpenter and
Earl G. Cummings; DR.. T. May Gage
and Miss Leda B. Stevens; Mrs. w. T..
Perkins and Mrs. Glenn c. Carpenter;
Raymond Bosworth and Emery Newhall;
Rev. B. G. Lipsky and Rev. A. w. Hew-
lit; DIR. Howard A. Drew and Dan j.
Morse; George Il. Maker and Lucius
Flint.
Up to this noon G. P. Kellogg, chair.
man OF the drive in Plaintield, had re
ported $5Ss4 raised, against quota of
Sl,0l2. The amount was from II sub
scribers. In Wolcott the sum of 500 had
been raised In Adamant, which was
canyassed by Rev. A. w. Hewitt, the
sum of Sl30 per year was raised, against
a quota of ss3 per year, the money being
subscribed by nine persons.
