the cavalrymen in one instance but
there were no contacts.
The cotton mills of the valley. some
of them idle a month or more by the
strike against wage reductions and in
creased working schedules, were still
inactive, but the management took ad-
vantage of. the military protection in
some instances to move to market the
cloth already manufactured. Trucks
moved between mills and freight sid
ings with cavalry guards. Il was a
movement of this kind that caused
earlier disturbances at Pontiac.

PROPOSE TO LIMIT
GASOLINE TANKS
Barre to Refuse to Permit Installation
of Tanks of More Than 1000
Gallons Capacity.

| Proposals to limit the size Of gas
cline or naphtha tank to be placed un-
der ground in the city limits of Barre
were made at the regular meeting OF
the city council, an amendment to the
ordinances being adopted whereby no
tank to exceed 1000 gallons capacity
can be used This was done as a meas
ure Of safety, it being held that tanks
Of greater capacity carry such meas
sure Of hazard as to make it unwise to
permit them to be installed. At the
present time the largest tank installed
in Barre is 800 gallons.
II was said in defense of the pros
posed amendment to the ordinance
| that many other cities place limit
on the size of "gas" tanks and that in
many Massachusetts, communities the
limit Ii 800 gallons.

last Of the dead of the disaster whicl
overlook her yesterday while mannuy

that wrought her destruction.
Recovery of the last body fixed ths
loss of life of the disaster-the great.
est in the history Of American zero
nautical "a dead, eight injured and
three practically unhurt. Of the dead
thirty had been identified although
many of the bodies of those caught
in the interior of the ship when sfe
crashed were burned, blackened and
charred almost beyond recognition.
Those dead included some of the air
services most gallant officers and mon,
the list containing the names of Ma
jor John Thornell, commander of the
ship at her christening in Washing
ton last December, and Captain Dale
Mabry, her commander during yester-
days Inflated fight.

at loss to account for the mishap
that caused the 4l0-foot craft to te-
come unmanageable. Possibility de
veloped, however, that the inquiry
would take notice of reports that the
bag of the Roma, constructed III Italy,
was rotten, although officers at the
field declined to discuss such reports.
II was determined to-day, officers
said, that the Liberty motors, which
were being tested. were not respon-
sible for the disaster, unless something
more tangible should be learned than
appeared to-day.
The point which the army board Of
Investigation which viii be organized

rudder supports to give way.
There were two pilots in charge of |
