HOSPITAL FIRE PROTECTION
 IS ALTOGETHER INADEQUATE
lcontInued from Page Onel

only 150 feet of hose were used. To 20 to the rear Of the hospital building would necessitate laying from 500 to 75O feet of hose and this would re- duce the pressure ten pounds per length of the hose, the chief said.
 At the hydrant, according to Chief Thurston, the pressure was seventy five pounds with the pump running, and but ffty-fve pounds without the pump running, drop of twenty pounds
 It was then that the mayor asked if this condition had been known by for mer officials and the chief replied that 1t had been known but had always been suppressed.
 Alderman Ames shid: 'Then two streams take all of the water avail ableg"
 The chief replied; "Yes, sir"
 "If there was fire at the hospital how many streams would be needed?"
 The chief replied, Five He then said. But we only have one and lit- tie one"

Scores Voters

Abiding to the recent action of the voters at the city meeting Mayor Richard said that 1t seemed to be T peculiar situation when the council and commissioners try 10 protect the hospital and the water commissioners took it into consideration and then the citizens vote against 1t. He said that such action is not taking care of a public institution which has been under an existing hazard for some time.
 No action was taken by the council regarding the present situation in the water works problem, and there was no discussion of the matter except sucn as was brought about by Chief Thurs tons disclosures.
 Those present at the meeting were the mayor, Aldermen Ames, Dean, Delisle. Mignault. and the city clerk.
 Don't Think Vote Legal''
 When the city clerk read the rec ord of the result of the special city meeting on the water works appro- priation Alderman Dean said 'I don't think it is legal yet'
 Mayor Richard said that he was convinced that it was legal and "I have talked it ever," he said.
 ''I suppose l have right to my opinion" said Alderman Dean.
 The mayor said, Certainly"

TAXI TAAXI DRIVERS ARE
 NOT WORRYING
Appear Before Public Utilities Commisson and Have Fears As to Effect of New Law Al layed.

Local taxi drivers have, for some time, been worried and perturbed be- cause of a change in the law that con- cerns their field of endeavor. The law went into effect July lst lt puts the taxicab business under the supervi- sion of the Public Utilities Commis- sion. The taxi men went Co Hartford last Thursday and are now feeling re- lieved. They found that false re- ports had been circulated and many erroneous conclusions had been reach ed They are well satisfied with the situation and the new law.
 The so-called "Taxicab Bill which requires that the taxicab business be placed upon the same basis as the mos tor bus business, and that a certifi- cate of public necessity and eonven- fence. issued through the Public Util- ities Commission under its regula- tons, will be necessary in order to engage in this type of business.
 On Higher Plane
 Tine jaw eentralzes the authority, gives the commission power regarding equipment, the number of taxis needed to supply the demand, and to determine who may engage in the taxicab business. This will bring the business to a higher plane, restrict competition, restrict price cutting, as sure better drivers and generally pro- tect the public Any person with a grievance against taxi driver may place that grievance before the com mission.
 Possibly nowhere in the state is there class of taxicab drivers as reliable and fit for public service as we have here in Putnam. Certainly when one sees the type of high priced cars these servants of the public are he is assured that the vehicles can not be improved upon. The Put nam taxi drivers were sent home af- ter being told to carry on their busi- ness as heretofore and not to worry about the future.

TERMINAL SYSTEM
SEEN in LOREE PLAN

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 20.-Only as
an interesting scheme for building up
system Of terminal roads to expedite the
trafic at terminal points on the Allan
tic seaboard, but not one likely to be
sanctioned by the Interstate Commerce
Commission, did bankers and railroad
men today consider the latest proposal
of L. +. Loree, head of the Delaware d
Hudson Railroad.
Mr.. Loree had made number OF I'M
successful attempts to merge transport
tation lines in the East and in the
Southwest. In all of these he has been
blocked by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The coup on which ne
realized heavily was in getting control
of the Wabash and Letigh Valley roads
and later selling them to the Pennsyi-
vania Railroad FOR 963 ,000, 900 and at
substantial profit over the cost price.
This now reposes in the treasury Of the
Delaware & Hudson and has been well
employed at satisfactory rates OF inter-
est during the period of high call money.
The philosophy Of Mr.. Loree'S latest
railroad project is that New England ana
the section as far south as Chesapeake
Bay requires q grouping OF roads that
will give q better inlet and outlet for
the trafic Of this territory than 1t now
receives from the dominant systems
within 1t, namely, the New York. New
Haven 81 Hartford, New York Central.
Pennsylvania. Baltimore 81 Ohio ana
Chesapeake & Ohio.

Special Dispatch to The Star,
NEW YORK, September 20.-Opposite
tendencies were shown in the con-
vertible bond market today, as the first
two hours of trading reflected the un-
settled condition in some groups of
stocks.
After advancing Ia points, American
points. International Telephone AIS
were weak. starting IL points lower
and extending their decline AZ points.
American International SIPS had an
early gain of 2 points, which estab-
lished them at a new high level, but
lost part of this. Philadelphia &
Reading IS were up u. Smaller gains
occurred in Commercial Investment
Trust 512s and In Southern Pacific 4l2s.
The rest of the market was quiet and
with no definite trend. U. S. Govern
ment issues showed some rally. The
buying by the Federal Reserve Banks
the past week was quite heavy in GER
tfficates of Indebtedness, amounting to
about $25, 000, 900, with some reduction
in Treasury notes. The holdings of
Government securities by the banks are
now SIT, 500 900, compared with $224,-
727.000 last year.
The bonds of small industrials that
have been exhibiting a poor market
recently were quieter, but in most cases
showing little improvement. An ex-
ception' was the Derry Corporation rs
which advanced 6 points The Sugar
Producing Co. bonds were heavy, with
the continued extensions Of time In
order to obtain sufficient deposit to
avoid financial difficulties sentimentally
affecting these issues. Local fractions
were steady.
In the foreign list there has beer
some Improvement this week In Japa-
nese issues, but more new low prices
In South Americans and in various con-
tinental municipal loans. The feature
Of this weeks new financing in bonds
has been the offerings Of State and

widespread and beneficent activities Of
the Salvation Army"
In the tiny living room of his cot
tage, within a stones throw of Home :
stead, where Gen. Bramwell Booth lay
dead, the great Salvation Army leader S
son and secretary, Capt. Wycliffe Booth,
today told the Associated Press homely
tales Of his fathers private life hitherto
unrecounted.
| Pride triumphed over grief as Capt.
| Booth reviewed the simple incidents,
81 cannot sufficiently emphasize my
fathers complete devotion to the Sal
walton Army and its founder" he de-
clared. At The age Of Is be became an
officer in the Christian Mission. At
the age of 20 he became the founder
right hand man, and until the founder S
death filed a lieutenants job, always
effacing himself as a background for
the founder. There was more than
between those two. They complemented
each other.
Light in Fathers window.
my earliest childhood memories are
linked with the vision of my father re-
turning home late at night from meet
ings, and, after greeting my mother and
us children, looking for the light in
the upper window of the house oppo-
site, which indicated that the founder
was awaiting the visit of his son be-
fore going to sleep.
THAT bright light was never ex-
tinguished, regardless of the lateness
of the hour, until BramweD had re-
counted the days doings and told the
founder good night.
"Close as my father was to his chill
dren, and he was wonderful father
despite his busy life, there was no such
relationship between us.
ION the founders eightieth birthday
Bramwell showed him the plaudits and
congratulations from the press and
world. extoiling him and his work.
"'Isn't that wonderful, father?'
Bramwell asked him.
'The founder turned to his son with
an affectionate smile.
ats not what they say am, but
what am-and what you think am,
he replied quietly"
Service Sunday Night.
A great funeral service before Gen.
Booths burial will be held in Albert
conduct the service, assisted by inter-
national commissioners.
Gen. Booth will be buried in the fam
lily vault at Abney Park Cemetery, be-
side his father and mother. On Mon
day the body will be taken from inter-
national headquarters of the Salvation
Army in Queen Victoria street to the
cemetery by the same route as that
taken for the funeral of the Armys
founder in 1912.
The Booth family has expressly stated
its desire that no flowers be sent, which
is In harmony with the Army's tradi-
ton n this matter. Gen. Higgins can
celied visits to Finland and Sweden to
conduct the funeral Of his deposed
predecessor.
