BEGIN BUILDING OF DOCKS
Every Available Emp'oye of Jahncke
Company in New Orleans
Put to Work.

F'ul TO wv Ork.
New Orleans.-The work of rebuild
ing the Jahncke dry docks which
were destroyed by fire, which also
damaged three ships anchored near
by, entailing loss Of approximately
50, 600, 900, was begun last week. Ev-
cry available employe of the company
was placed at work.
Plans for rebuilding the wharves
and dry docks destroyed in the
spectacular fire were announced by
Ernest Lee Jahncke, head of the cor
poration, even before the flames had
died down.
While some apprehension was felt
following the fire that the huge dry
lock would sink, later it was found
to be safe and will be repaired Dam
age to the Jahncke dry docks and
wharves is estimated at $1,750,000.
The greatest damage to the ships
was suffered by the gDade County,
which was damaged If, the extent of
$15O,000 The steamer Dillwyn was
damaged 100000, while the steamer
Bavington was damaged $4,000 ac-
cording to estimates The steamer
Iohn Adams was only slightly dam
aged.
The fire was caused by the break
ing OF an electire wire carrying a
heavy voltage, the end of which fell
Into tie river, which was covered by
oil escaping from a nearby tanker.
The flames spread rapidly over the
oil soaked timbers of the wharf, caus-
ing a heavy cloud of smoke which
made it difficult to fight the flames
or to tell just what ships and prop
erty We're burning.

ing victory than any other president
had had since Monroe. He had the man
date and the opportunity to be presi-
dent of the whole Union. With all
his good qualities Of head and heart,
he was not broad enough to be more
than the servant Of a section, ''of
those who placed me here" as he ex-
pressed 1t.
The new presidents appointment of
Jefferson Davis to be secretary of war
Identified his administration at the out
set with the aggressive faction In the
south. Under its counsels Pierce not
only surrendered to the ambitions of
the slave power for expansion over
the north and west, but also for Its
expansion into foreign lands.
Slavery was In its last throes ev-
erywhere. Great Britain had abolished
It In her West Indian islands, Mexico
had abolished it next door to our own
slave states. Even Spain was tend
ing toward the freeing Of the slaves in
Cuba when the American ministers to
Great Britain, France and Spain met
In Belgium and issued the "Ostend
manifesto" That shameful document
proclaimed the threat that II the Span
ish government should refuse to sell
Us Cuba we would take the island by
force.
At the same time congress at home
was repeating the Missouri comprO-
mise and wiping out the dead line
against slavery, which had been drawn
q quarter Of a century before. This
threw open Kansas to a wild scramble
between settlers who wished the new
territory to be free and those who
wished It to be slave.
Then and there the Civil war began.
Border rufiians," as the north called
the settlers, who rushed in from Mis-
souri, and other slave states, and set
tiers no less rough in their fighting
who poured in from the free states.
quickly turned that primeval into
''Bleeding Kansas" Rival territorial
governments were set up by the two
factions, and Pierce threw the weight
of the federal power on the side Of
those who were desperately striving to
create another slave state.
The whole country was drawn into
the struggle. and the Republican party
sprang into life At the election In the
middle OF his term, Pierce saw the
Democratic representation in the house
cut down One-half and the opposition
sweep In with big majority.

ERANKLIN PIERCE was the sec

A member of the legislature at
twenty-nine, while his father was gov

he was senator Of the United States
at thirty-three. Resigning when his
term had yet year to run, he after
ward refused second election to the
senate and refused the gOvernorship
The Mexican war tempted Pierce
from his retirement and, as a brigadier
general, he served with Scott in the
advance on the city of Mexico. Re-
turning to his family and first-class
law practice at Concord, General
Pierce, at forty-three, had no thought
that any further public distinction
awaited him.

canvass in sections, roll it together and
lift it into the baggage wagons. These
wheels mounted on steel wagons. forty
feet long are driven by a gas motor,
and, when section Of canvas is at
tached it is drawn from the ground and
rolled in surprisingly short space OF
