MAY STERILIZE 0FFAL
Charity Department Considers Im- provemcnt at Town Farm in Inspcc- tors Recommendation.

In compliance with a suggestion of George T. Conway. inspector of meats, stationed at New Haven, the charity department is considering ways and means of sterilizing offal at the mu- nicipal abattoir before the refuse is fed to live stock at the town farm. A boiler may be installed shortly.
 MT. Conway's recommendation fol- lowed the discovery that 300 hogs at the Stoltz farms in New London had probably become infected through the uSo of onal in their feed. The local board has found the use of refuse as a feed unsatisfactory and recently only a small amount has been fed to the stock.

TEST FOR GASOLINE
Little Dabs of Cheap Molasses on Stick Will Show Traces of Water in Liquor Oil Inspector Says.

St. Paul, Sept. 17.-Little dabs of cheap molasses on plain pin sticks in the hands of 61 oil inspectors in Min nesota have saved users of gasoline thousands of dollars during the past year according to Hjalmar Nilsson, state oil inspector. Incidentally this sim pie test for discovering water in gaso- line has gone out from Minnesota to a dozen other states
 On the theory that water is heavier than gasoline and always sinks to the bottom, MT. Nilsson devised the sim pie test year ago. A stick dipped in cheap molasses glides through gasoline without showing any effect on the mo- lasses. But when water is encounter ed the molasses comes off the stick. When the stick is withdrawn the exact amount of water in the bottom of the tank is clearly revealed.

To Agree, Premier Lloyd George Says, Would Be to Actually Recog- nize Independence of Ireland.
Declares Britain Will Never Accept Delegates As Rep resentatives of Separate Nation.

London. Sept. IT, (By Associated Presa) Premier Lloyd George re- plying today to tho communication of Ramon De Valera on Friday says that to receive the Sim Fein dele gates to tho proposed conference as representatives of an independent and sovereign state would constitute formal and official recognition of Ire lands severance from the kings do- mains"
 Mr. Lloyd George says that SO long aa Mir. De Valera insists that tho Irish delegates should confer as the repre- sentatives of an independent and sovereign state conference is im- possible.
 Lloyd Georges View.
 Tn his reply MT. Lloyd George de- clares it Is idle to say that a con- ference in which the British repre- sentatives had to meet the Sim Fein pionipotcntaries as the representatives of an independent and sovereign state would bo a conference with out prejudice"
 t'To receive them as such." the premier says. would constitute for mai and official recognition of Ire lands severance from the kings do- mains. It would entitle them to make n treaty but 1t would equally entitle them to make no treaty and to break off the conference at any point and negotiate q union of Ireland with Q foreign power.
 Will Not Change.
 Tho government is prepared to discuss how the association of Ireland with the British empire could best be reconcilcd with Irish aspirations, but they could not consent to any aban- hnx fnf nf principal of allegiance to the king. upon which tho whole fabric ot the empire and every constitution in it arc based.
 While Mir. De Valera insists upon claiming that the Irish delegates should confer as representatives of an independent and sovereign state a conference between them is impos- RibIe."

 The Farmers Case.
 'The farmer for instance has done his part to reduce the cost of living and bring back prosperity. Prices of most farm. products are .down to pre- war levels. Considering the lessened value of the dollar, farm products are today selling lower than they have ever sold. Moreover, this applies to such commodities as rubber, and rice, as well

Funeral Services Held At New York Navy Yard Secretary Of Navy At tends In Person

New York, Sept. 17.-(By Associat- cd Press )-America today mourned hlr fighting men who fell with the ZR-2.
 In the New York navy yard, in drizzling rain, pressed thousands of sorrowing men and women to gather round the piers of Is bluejackets and their officers who met death in the river Humber when the giant airship took its fatal plunge.
 Honors From England.
 England honored the American dead, as we'll as her own, with sol Cmn ceremonies in Westminster Alb Dey and elsewhere. but this afternoon Americans gathered to pay their own tribute to the heroes whose bodies were brought back to the homelan.: yesterday on the British cruiser Dauntless.
 Journeying here from Washington, to be present when the words of parting were uttered, was the secre- tary of the Navy. while British, French and Brazilian sailormen, whose warships were in port, were invited to the ceremony.
 Secretary Denby Arrives.
 Secretary Denby. accompanied by attaches of the British embassy, ar rived early, bearing with him IS Douquets-personal tributes from the president of the United Staes and his cabinet. The British ambassador also sent flowers.
 The secretary decided not to de- liver an address, preferring that the ceremonies be confined to the solemn ritual prescribed by navy regulations and accorded American naval heroes ever since men-o'war flying the Stars and Stripes ever sailed the seas.
 Long before the gates to the yard were thrown open, crowds began to gather. Along Sands street, parallel ing the Brooklyn waterfront to the yard, shopkeepers had made it a day of mourning. closing their doors and facing the front of their stores with the American colors and black crepe.
 Ceremonies Held Inside.
 It had been planned to hold the memorial service on the athletic field, but heavy skies necessitated holding the ceremony in the mess hall. Police guards held back the crowds while American bluejackets carried the cas- kets to that building from the tenn porary chapel in which they had been placed last night.
 Shortly before 1 o'clock all the saskets had been placed on a common Lier, stretching entirely across one snd of the mess hall in front of the lltar. Each coffin was draped with he American flag. Of the American ;eamen who died in the disaster | here was missing only the body of | Hachinist J. T. Hancock of Shields, | Mich, who was laid to rest in Eng | and.
 Halls Draped in CoIors. The wLitewashed halls of the mess lall were draped with American flags vhen the guards of honor-picked | eamen and marines-marched into he auditorium headed by band. With bayonets fixed. seamen in navy ,lue and marines in khaki, took their places around the caskets of their comrades. Their officers wore mourn ng bands on their sleeves and crepe n their sword hilts.
