NEW PROBLEM
FOR THE VETS
m Wilson Raises Issue
of Insurance in Case Ex-
pIoding Stills

The Anti-Saloon League, repre-
sented by Samuel Wilson of the
Department of Law Enforcement
has again presented the vets OF the
state with a problem, this time IN
"a letter to william E. futile, DEM
ocratic candidate for the nomina-
lion for governor. Mr. wilson
raises the question Of insurance IN
the case # exploding stills. re
considers it the duty OF the state
and particularly of Mr.. Tnttle as
banking-insurance commissioner. TO
take UP the matter with the insur-
ance companies, so that Landlords
will thoroughly realize That they
cannot collect insurance for dam
ages directly caused by explosions.
Mr.. Wilson's letter follows:
MIR. William f. Tuttie,
.Banking-Insurance Commissioner
Trenton, N. j.
Dear Sir:
"At frequent intervals we read IN
the press of losses of life and prop
erty caused by explosions OF Illicit
stills operated in cellars, outbullolngs
and rooms of tenement houses
sometimes followed by destructive
fires.
some fire insurance policies ex-
empt the insurance company from
liability for damages caused by sucn
explosions, unless fire ensues, ana
in that event, for the damage by nre
only" while others allow nothing
whatever for damages caused by
explosions.
1.-THE point i'll my mind Is that
great numbers of stills have been
installed, contrary to law, in private
residences and other premises, es-
necialIy in sections of our cities oc-
cupied chiefly by foreign1born popu-
;ation, and are operated by
under extremely hazardous
conditions.
"Owners of buildings and the
other tenants, ought to be warned
Of this danger, and that they cannot
insurance for damages direct
y caused by explosions.
1.-The insurance companies can er-
feet a reform by CHASING as extra
any premises containing
alcohol stills, and refusing to insure
hem; and by inserting a clause max
ng void the policy If an alcohol still
8 installed on the premises. !
ut is the duty of the state, rather
han of a private citizen, to take up
his matter with the insurance com
so as to protect landlords ana
tenants from this men
zee caused by persons who for greed
vilfully violate the laws Of the Ma
ion and the state: hence this letter

STATE WILL BUY BRIDGE BONDS

STATE WILL BUY BRIDGE BONDS
Owing to failure of the Legisla-
ture to make provision for levying a
tax to meet the interest and redemp-
tion fund of the $5S5.000 bonds to
be sold to provide the purchase
price for the Perryville bridge, the
State will, through the Board of
Public Works. purchase the bonds
at par. If no higher bid is offered
and apply them to the State Sinking
Fund. The LEGISLATURE will be ask
ed to authorize new bond issue
interest and redemption of which
will be covered by generai tax levy.
In the meantime the State, upon
taking possession Of the bridge. will
collect the tolla which are to be used
for interest and redemption of the
bonds. The State Is to take over
the bridge on January 1. and it is
said will reduce tolls and issue COM
mutation tickets on a monthly and
ten-trip basis. Use Of the bridge
will be free to pedestrians. It IA
thought to be likely that the present
toll collectors and draw attendants
will be retained as they are familiar
with the work required.

MOVING THE PORT RAILROAD.
Much Speculation But No Definite
Knowledge.

knowledge.
If anyone inquiries as to what is
going to become OF the Columbia
and Port Deposit railroad when the
Conowingo dam is built, you will be
perfectly safe in saying that you do
not know. You may be almost
equally positive that no one else
knows just yet, even those who are
most vitally interested in the mat
ter. In other words, there are a
half dozen schemes of more or less
merit being considered and half a
hundred wild rumors which are not
being considered at all. The matter
however will be determined at an
early date as the elevation of the
tracks is one of the most important
bits of engineering in connection
with the building of the dam.
One thing however seems reason
ably certain and that is that no part
of the Baltimore Central tracks will
be used. The advantage of the
river road was the almost total alb
sence of heavy grades and hence it
afforded suitable track for the
hauling of heavy trainss from the
coal regions to tidewater. The Bal
timore Central has such heavy
grades that it would be impossible
to haul anything but the highest
trains unless the roadway were re-
built.
The using Of the Pomeroy and
Newark road Is open to similar OBJ
lection because Of the bad curves,
but 1t is not as impossible as the
Baltimore Central. The Peach Bot
tom right of way is almost value
less, owing to the cost Of construc-
ton, and would be Of no use any
way, unless 1t was extended on to
Elkton or Newark. 1t is likely that
some method of overcoming the rail-
road difficulties will be evolved
within the course of the next few
months and then the work of build
ing the dam may be pushed ahead
vigorously. Oxford News.
