CAMBRIDGE, Mass, July 23.-Two
men We're killed, three more received
injuries which are believed will prove
fatal, three others seriously injured

The dead are Charles Baylis and
Oscar Williams, both of Cambridge.
Three of their companions were taken
to the Cambridge city hospital, where
their names were placed on the danger
list, while two others are expected to
recover.
The police said they had received
numerous complaints during the eve
ming that an automobile loaded with
young men was speeding through the
streets. A policeman was nearly run
down when he stepped into the street
to hail the car.
He notified headquarters and
patrol wagon was sent in pursuit. The
police machine sighted the speeding
car. which, officers said. was filed with
yelling men, and attempted to over
haul it, but was losing ground when
the fleeing car swerved into the pole.
The officers saw two of its occupants

DULUTH, Mimi. July 23.-Possi-

this Fall despite curtailment of the
harvest. due to the excessive hot spell
of the last two or three weeks, were
points emphasized at a meeting of
the Northwest Regional Advisory
Board here. Approximately 20 rail-
road men and shippers attended. Re-
ports agreed that the excessive hot
weather Of the past two or three
weeks has set the crops back, and that
there will be a smaller harvest than
would have matured If the heat had
not struck the grain helds at this
time.
Figures presented showed more
grain is now in storage at Chicago.

year at this time. while Buffalo has
approximately the same amount as

DEADLOCK ON COAL
/ LOOMS IN BRITAIN
Only Nine Days of Pact Left,
With Miners and Operators
Still at Odds.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 23.-Only nine days
remain before the expiration of the
present agreement on employment in
the coal fields, and there is increas-
ing anxiety as each day slips by with
out a settlement of the differences
between the miners and mine owners
concerning a new agreement.
The miners are adamant in their
refusal to meet the owners unless the
latter withdraw their proposals for
a new agreement and the owners are
equally insistent that they will not
withdraw the proposals if the word
withdraw" is to be interpreted as
abandon"
Each day the owners have asked
the Miners Federation leaders to meet
them with a view to arriving at
definition of the word Withdraw as
preliminary to negotiations, but the
federation has not seen it's way clear
to move from its position.
The miners are receiving sympa-
thetic support from labor generally
and the belief that there will be a
stoppage of work in the mines seems
for the moment increasing. Trade
union members Of the House Of Com
mons last night sent a resolution to
A. j. Cook, secretary of the Miners
Federation, protesting against the
mine owners degrading attempt to
reduce the miners to abject slavery"

university men technically trained In
gas engineering, including such
branches as the manufacture, distribu-
tion, utilization and service of gas,
just as 1t now is possible for the COM
pany to secure men technically trained
In other engineering lines.
In order to establish this course in
gas engineering on a permanent basis
and give to young men of ambition
and ability an opportunity to prepare
Tor desirable positions in an important
and expanding business, the company
is now offering scholarship for this
course, to be awarded in September,

NEW VARIETY PIMA COTTON.

The Tempe district, the birth
place of the now world. famous
long staple Pima cotton. has
been chosen by Mr.. Harrison,
United States cotton expert of
Sacaton, as the place for testing
out a new strain of Pima cotton
"a smooth seed cotton which
the government has. developed.
A survey of the valley has been
made to determine the best place
for planting the new strain, it
being the desire to plant where
there will be no other cotton in
close proximity, so that the
purity of the strain and the seed
product will remain upimpaired.
Two places were chosen, the
John r. Birchett ranch east of
Tempe, where 100 acres of the
new strain will be planted, and
the M. E. White ranch north of
town, where go acres will be
planted. The seed from these
paintings will be under the con.
troll of the government. and will
be disposed of through the TEN.
pc Cotton Exchange, at the oil
mill price.

IN THE WAKE OF FIRE AND TOR
NAOO.

Burning up buildings, with
the occasional diversion of blow.
ing them down, continues to the
disgrace of America. The un.
leashed elements are hard to
control. Yet give man a chance
and he displays himself a mas.
ter of almost any situation.
The Breakers, Palm Beach's
famous hostelry is no more. Fire
consumed the assembled natural
resources which went into it's
making and left the nation sew.
eral millions poorer.
Portions of Missouri, Illinois,
Indiana and Kentucky have been
swept by tornado. 1t not only
laid waste to property but took
a toll of human life which first
reports seemed to indicate has
never been paralleled through
the same agency in this country.
Carelessness in one form or
another-the human element
is responsible for most fires.
And at the beginning every fire
is no larger than the flame of a
match or a tiny spark.
Tornadoes are visitations be.
yond the blame or control of hu.
mans, but in each case humans
may be far seeing and provident
enough to forestall greatly, if
not entirely, the damage which
these visitations otherwise leave
upon the land.
The folly of building to burn
and blow down is mans folly,
flung in the face of we'll estab
lished facts that buildings can
be built that will neither burn
up nor blow down.
Ages of experience have
shown that tornadoes do not con.
tinually respect locality. De.
cade after decade, Americas fire
losses grow. More than half a
billion a year is the present an.
nual toll of fire.
No money value can be stated
for the actual economic loss of
the lives wiped out by the re-
cent tornado. In both cases. the
permanent wealth of the coun
try has been materially reduced.
How much longer will people
disregard we'll established facts
as to the economy of permanent,
fresafe, windproof structures of
all types? Surely hotels, apart
ment building, schools, factories
all structures housing human
beings-deserve first considera-
ton from the standpoint of max.
ing them a protection rather
than a menace to life.
Firesafe and windproof build.
ings are easily built. Archi
tects, engineers and contractors
the country over will agree to
build them, and in most cases at
a cost no greater than types
which are food for flames and
playthings for the wind.
How many more lessons must
we have before we show that we
know the anWer?
