HEAVY FIRE LOSS
Damage at New Haven Road Ware house in Elm City Is Estimated at About S1OO,OOO.

New Haven, Conn.,. May 5 LP- The ruins in a section of the store- house in the railroad yards here which was burned yesterday after noon were being overhauled today that the officials of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad might determine the losses in equip- ment and materials.
 The estimate last night was that the monetary loss would exceed s100,000. The section which was en- tirely fire swept was 32: feet long out of total length of 1,o55 feet and in this electrical material was stored almost entirely. A fire wall stopped the blaze so that other sec- tons were not materially damaged by fire but smoke and water pene- tration was considerable. A section filled with stationery and supplies for offices was untouched.
 The inquiry as to origin of the fire is going forward. It's spread and intensity for an hour was laid to the wind which was blowing in from the harbor. The damage to houses in the immediate neighborhood was not great except to one two blocks away on which the roof was perforated by brands.

 Meanwhile the largest rescue fleet ever assembled on the river, com- posed of steam boats. coast guard cutters and other vessels, was nov ing along the river and nosing through the inundated lowlands, picking up refugees. The fleet will follow the crest of the flood as 1t moves to the Gulf of Mexico.

 President Dyson's Report President Dyson's opening address
 to the delegates was as follows:
 "In presenting my report to you.
 at this time. of the activities of
 our association for the past year, I
 will De very brief in detail.
 "When I accepted the presidency of the association year ago, realized that there was considerable
 work ahead to bring the association up the standard and the level where it belonged. It has been my en- deavor to conduct it's affairs as eco-
 nomically as possible, with the funds at our disposal. which are very in- adequate for the amount of work that is required Of your executive officers in order to make your or yanization effective.
 "The lack of funds has been a handicap in doing some of the things which are very important to the association for the simple reason that I did not want to bring on any more indebtedness than necessary. Consequently we had to pass up some of the minor activities Of the so{t 1f or4o n mt questions that must be considered and action taken at this convention, is to devise ways and means of in creasing our revenues. The mem- bership fee at the present time Is $10 per year. Five dollars Of this
 has to be sent to the National Asso- citation. which leaves us very little to
 conduct activities of any kind, let
 alone reducing our indebtedness at
 the bank. It Is no credit to our association for the officers to have
 to keep asking the bank to renew i the note which we owe. It does not
 lcok well on the face of it. and the
 members of the association should
 realize that if we want to look well before the community. our slate tshould be clean. and I sincerely hope that you will take some definite ac- ton at this time for the purpose Of raising revenue enoughto liqui-
 date our noteat the bank and give
 the association funds enough with which TO work during the coming
 year. It is the opinon Of your
 president that the acti"itiess of the
 association should not be impaired 1 through lack of finances.
 "The members of the association
 and those who are not should real-
 izc the importance of organization. We have had Q very recent forci- hlc demonstration of what organi- xution and cooperation can do. whe,. 9, crook who had been operating all
 over the country met his Waterloo ill Connecticut through cooperation
 on the part of the members of the association.
 "There is one very important fac tor that you must bear in mind. and that is when anything of question: able nature is brought 10 your atten- ton in your community make a personal inspection of these condi- tions and if you are not able to cope with them locally. they should be re- 'erred immediately to the executive
