Sir George Paish, England's fore
most financial authority, arrived here
yesterday At the same time Viscount
Grey, England's ambassador, reached
New York from Washington en- route
to England.
Sir George gave out for public con-
sumption a statement that he has
come to ask loan for Great Britain
and her allies, the amount OF which,
he declared, would stagger the world.
But, he. asserted, 1t was necessary,
else Europe would die"
Sir George, who is editor of the
Statist, and has been confidential ad-
wiser of the British exchequer, ar
rived on the Holland America liner
Nieuw Amsterdam.
He said the loan would be asked
for reconstruction work in the de-
v4stated countries. He did not state
the amount, but the New York Amer
lean, as readers will see in the ac-
count from Washington of Viscount
Greys real omission here, is able to
state, on high authority, that 1t is
$4,000. 100000.

viscount Grey and Sir George Paish
will undoubtedly have a talk before
The ambassador sails, and Sir George
will learn how well the ambassador
has paved the way with the Wilson
Administration for this huge demand
on our resources.
Sir George. as a financial expert,
really comes here, the American Is
Informed, to complete the technical
banking details OF the $4,000, 600, 900
loan, which Viscount Grey, one of the
most skiilful diplomats in the world.
has been arranging with the Wilson
Administration.
Sir George insisted that he socks
ne loan chiefly to present after war
ocourges. He said:
IAN insanitary condition exists in
I She Balkan states which threatens
the lives of the peoples OF all the
countries of Europe. Because Of this
condition a plague threatens which
if IL once got started would sweep
over Europe like an all-consuVing
fire and might be expected to cause
an appalling death rate. Such
plague it might be impossible to
to check"
Seeks Record Loan.
Sir George took the position pub
licly that a longtime loan of an
amount greater probably than any
national loan ever negotiated Is
, needed to accomplish the purposes
he has outlined and to establish the
rates of exchange.
He believes that England alone is
incapable of shouldering the great
burden that confrontS European civ
lization.
lie believes that enormous amounts
must be forthcoming to carry on the
gigantic task of reconstructing and
rchabilitating all Europe.
Sir George continued:
Europe win die unless the hmeri.

with England, supply Europe with
food and raw materials, thus check.

0'NE|LL, ACTOR,
DIES IN HOSPITAL
Played "Count of Monte
Christie" 5000 Times.
III Two Months.

| NEW LONDON, Conn, August 10
James ONeill, the actor, died at the
Lawrence Memorial Associated Hos
pital early today. He had been i'll for
two months at the hospital, suffering
from an internal disorder. His wife
and sons were at the bedside. He
was seventy years old.
| Mr.. O'Neill had been in a coma for
month. He was left in weakened
condition nearly two years ago after
| ne was struck by an automobile in
| New York. When his health began
to fail last spring he was sent to
lSt. Vincent's Hospital, New York.
After leaving that institution he suf-
| fered relapse and was brought here.
Took One Part 5000 Times.
! For more than fifteen years and in
more than 5000 performances, O'Neill
in THE Count of Monte Christie" until
his name became SO associated with
that play that in the minds of drama
lovers. to mention one was to sug-
gest the other. 1t was his great
part, the character in which he
achieved his greatest success and, de-
spite his efforts to discard it for
others, he was often compelled to re-
| turn to it in qualification of public
demand or at the request of theatrical
managers.
Mr.. O'Neill made his first appear
ance in that play at Booths Theater,
in New York. in 1888. under the man
agement of John Stetson. When
Charles P. Thorne. who played the
part of Dantes, died, O'Neill took the
part and thereafter played it con-
tinuously for years.
An unusual incident in Mr.. O'Neirs
career was his attempt to impersonate
vi in, sci rl1o II,
1880 at San Francisco. where O'Neill
was then a popular player. The effort
was frowned upon by the authorities,
despite the fervor and reverence with
which Mr.. O'Neill essayed the part,
and, after running for few weeks,
| it had to be withdrawn. Later an at
tempt was made by Henry E. Abbey
| to produce the passion play in New
York, with Mr.. O'Neill in the leading
role, but it was prevented by the au-
thorities.
Early Stage Career Varied.
Mr.. ONeill was brought to this
country when small child from the
home of his parents in Kilkenny, Ire
land, where he was born November Is,
1S49. His first appearance on the
stage was in the National Theater at
Cincinnati in 1868. Subsequently he
appeared at the st. Louis Varieties,
played for a season in Cincinnati, was
leading juvenile in a Baltimore COM
pany; played in a Chicago stock COM
pany for two years. and appeared with
Adelaide Nelson and Edwin Booth in
classic plays.
He went to New York in 1875 and
played Pierre in The Two Or
phans," the Prince in THE Danicheffs"
and as Jean Renaud in "A Celebrate ed
Case" Beginning in 1898 he achieved
an enviable reputation as D'Artagnan
in 1.-The MuSkateerS." He ATTEMPTED
many years ago to retire from the
stage. but often was recalled to ap-
pear in romantic dramas, in which he
was at his best.

The worlds record for the number

were delivered in six tongues and, at

the American school established fifty
seven years ago. The school mas

rather than in English-speaklng

guages used by the orators. and the

FAMOUS Old WELLS
NOW Being CLOSED
Watering Places That Made
Richrncnd Famous In Pioneer
Days Give Way to Progress

Years ago before the birth of in
habitants two score years old, there
were number OF wells dug about the
city and Richmond grew around 'em,'
old residents state, and this would
seem a fact, since the wells are, or
rather were, in the center of the
streets as we'll as the city. Water
works were not thought Of IN those
days, and when there was a fire the
wells furnished water to extinguish
the flames. They were also used for.
watering the thirsty steeds Of travel
ers, instead of the gasoline used now
for replenishing the power of the au-
tomobile. Many Of the wells are
among the best to be found in this
part OF the state and the quality of
the water, which seemed ineXhausti-
BILE in the way Of quantity at times
was known far and wide. eco to
Richmond for good water" is a term
used by residents hereabouts so long
ago that perhaps it is known or re-
lIleInDGE0u ny the OltiSSC IeSideHLS OH
ly. However, it was an important
saving in the early rays.
These wells, since the street paving
has been started, arc being filed up
the last one, with one exception, be-
ing closed Thursday. It was one of
the first ones to be dug and the last
to be filled up. It served it's purpose
well, did the well, as did the others.
It stood at the northwest corner Of
Main and First streets, about 20 feet
north of where the fountain is locat-
ed. It was 80 feet deep and the mat
ter of filing it up was no small prop
osition.
There was an abundance of water
which had been standing for years.
and this rendered the work unpleas-
ant TO a degree, but worls1nen finally
conquered, and the big hole is no
more. There is one left, that one be-
ing at the corner of Second and Wa
ter street. This will escape the fat !.
of the others, since the street pawn g
will not extend that far south on Sec
