Millions of Dollars Worth
Cannot Be Moved
from Havana
MUCH OF 1T is
DUMPED AT SEA
Inadequate Facilities and Speculation
Given as Cause - Warning Against
Epidemic Issued BY Chief Sanitary
Officer of the City. .. 49,

HAVANA, Cuba, Oct. 26.-American
products valued at millions of dollars are
tied up at the port of Havana, seemingly
without prospect or hope of early deliv-
cry. Conditions have become so serious
from the standpoint of help that hundreds
of tons of food stuffs for which war
prices are paid on the island already have
been hauled out in barges and dumped
into the sea.
There is such congestion on the
wharves, however, that it has been impos-
sible to dig through the growing pile of
boxes and barrels and reach many de
cayed shipments
Warning against a possible epidemic
was sounded today by the chief sanitary
officer at Havana, who declared that
while the people were being taxed almost
beyond their means enormous quantities
of needed articles are rotting on the decks
and endangering public health"
Inadequate port facilities. the strike of
longshoremen last spring. and speculation
are given as the principal causes of con
gpStiOn.

ferings have equaled my own. hope
That her burdens viii not be added to
and should Billy be convicted l hope he
Is given the lightest punishment he can
be given"
Mrs. Drewps said her son told her
the night he left home to return to col
Iege that Brines owed him about $500,
but she did not think this had caused
any ill-feeling between the young men,
who were close friends.

CONF FERENCE ON

Proposition by Mr.. Bradley
in Writing in Select ,
mems Room
WANTS LITIGATION
IN CASE ENDED
Agrees to Confer as to Future Course
but Doesn't State What Course Would
Be-QuestiOns Are Drawn Up to Be
Submitted to Him.

meeting of the Brattleboro select
men and the executive committee of the
Society of Seamstresses, Needlewomen
and Shopgirls, Attorneys f. Il. Barber
and o. b. Hughes for the society, At
torney \. 2. Carpenter for the town
and Attorney Il. w. Gibson for the state
was held in the selectmen's room last
night to consider propositions from
Trustee Richards NJ. Bradley relative
to the litigation brought by the town
and the society to bring about Mr..
Bradley's removal as a trustee of the
Thomas Thompson trust estate.
Last week, following a conference be-
tween Attorneys Schwenk and Barber
the latter stated to the selectmen that
Mr.. Bradley had a proposition to make,
and the selectmen replied that it must
be made in writing before they would
consider it. +
signed by Mr.. Bradley, was presented
last night, which was in substance that
if the suit for the removal of Mr.. Brad
ley We're withdrawn he would confer
relative to his future course. =, ..
MIR. Bradley wished several questions
submitted to the Massachusetts, supreme
court. which practically would amount
to an Interpretation by the court an to
the duties of the trustees. One question
related to persons seeking aid from the
Thompson estate when they have rela-
tives who might support them, another
related to persons who have earning ca
pacity but have not ready money, such
persons being advanced money in the
nature of a loan, and another related
to permanent aid.
1t appeared that the supreme court
would not give instructions on these
points while the suit for Mr.. Bradley's
removal was pending. .s.
In reply to Mr.. Bradley's proposition
the selectmen drew up four questions to
be submitted to him by Attorney Car
information from Trustee Bradley as to
what he would be willing to do in case
the Hti~'+ion E-ss vits III avn.
This, it is understood, is the very
point which has prevented the parties
from reaching an agreement up to this
time. lit has been talked that if Mr..
Bradley would consent to it the other
parties would be willing to withdraw
the litigation and have a committee of
Brattleboro persons appointed by the
court to have charge of the distribution
of BrattleborO's share of the income of
the estate. Trustee Bradley declines
to agree to any proposition while the
suit for his removal is pending and the
others decline to withdraw the suit with
out some definite understanding.
Attorney Schwenk and Trustee Brad
ley were in the formers Office while the
conference was in progress, it being un-
derstoOd that Mr.. Bradley would be
called in if he was wanted. but he was
not called in. He left for Boston this
morning.
