Many Years. Experience

New tales of the hurricane that
caused much trouble on the Atlantic on
New Years Day we're brought to port
yesterday by two steamships whose
passengers were hurled about the ves-

The first liner bearing tangible evi-

Of the French Line, which came in
Tuesday night with battered rails and
a lifeboat missing.
The hurricane which hit her, but
jury, caught the transport Mercury
shortly before noon January 1, and
ripping two dining saloon tables from
the fastenings bowled them suddenly
around the room, severely bruisine
thirty-five passengers. Nearly all re-

broke her right arm when the vessel
lurched and threw her against table
Miss Elizabeth Delaney, Of Worcester

the head and shoulders, was barely

storm, was the worst he had ever en-
countered in his sea experience. He
said he could not understand how the
vessel escaped laundering.
Captain McMurray handled her in
masterly fashion," said Captain Bar

Austrian ViOlinist Appears

Special Correspondence
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. "a silent
protest through absent treatment has
been urged for Fritz Kreisler. the Aus
trian violinist, who is to appear with
the Philadelphia Orchestra at to-mor-
rows and Saturdays concerts. Mrs.
William Furness jerks was among the
first to question the appearance of
reisler.
II have been a subscriber to the
Philadelphia Orchestra for several
years, and also subscriber to it's
fund.-" she said "I protest against
the appearance OF this man, an alien
enemy.
my seats will not be used to-mor-
row, nor will l give them away. I
talked the whole thing over with Miss
Cornelia rockingham, and l under
stand she has communicated with seat
holders. suggesting that they also show
their displeasure by remaining away
from the concerts"
The letter that Miss rockingham
prepared and read over the te.ephonc
to seat-holders follows:
More now than during the war even
do we need clcar-eyed loyalty and
straight thinking. There are those Of
us among the subscribers to the Phila-
delphia Orchestra who feel the impro-
priety Of allowing Fritz Kreislcr to
perform or play with the orchestra
Friday and Saturday.
"Those who feel this will leave their
seats vacant at the two performances

Krcislcr from joining the forces

morrow and Saturday." Arthur Judson,

Harvey Will Open
Fire Upon Lansing
In Russian Issue
Editor Says Hapgood Is
Down and Out as Envoy
for America; Will Turn
Guns on Cabinet Member

Colonel George B. M. Harvey, in the
current issue of "Harvey's Weekly"
announces that he intends to "con-
slider" next week the relations which
Secretary Of State Lansing held to
Norman Hapgood while the latter was
United States Minister to Denmark,
and which post he lost, according to
Colonel Harvey, because Of his alleged
sympathies with the Bolshevki At
the same time the editor announces
that the case as it pertains to Hapgood
himself, is closed, as the former min
lister is down and out forever" as q
representative of the United States.
Harvey Cites Contradictions
In the article Colonel Harvey con-
siders the various conflicting state
ments evoked by his first statement
concerning the real reason why Mr..
Hapgood was returning, after brief
experience at Copenhagen, and declares
that If anybody can make anything in
teillgible out Of the contradictory state
ments from the White House. Mr.. Hap
good, Secretary Lansing and the State
Department., he's welcome to try.
Colonel Harvey then takes occasion
to quote an alleged French official re-
port dated at Paris. last July, in which
1t is asserted that Mr.. Hapgood has
been designated as Germanophile, y
but in which, after nothing that he has
been under surveillance on prior visits
to France, it is stated that he "is not
recorded as having been forced to
leave"
Colonel Harvey also refers to an in
terview, published in "The New York
Call" quoting Mr.. Hapgood as express
ing the belief that both Lenine and
Trotzky were sincere men.
Say Hapgood Is Through"
"But enough" he concludes. eve
are through with Hapgood and his
opinions Of the relative merits of the
two worst scoundrels and greatest mur-
derers the world has ever produced, for
whose government OF stricken Russia
he besought the aid or American citi-
zens. He is not only out, but down and
out forever as a representative Of the
United States. That is the main thing.

of Secretary Lansing in this affair
next week.

man, formerly at Newport and now rec
tor of a parish at Warwick, Pa, was

counsel for government and defense
fought every step of the way, The

Of minister of the Gospel had been
attacked.
