New York, Nov. q CP)-s. c. s McNeil of the Cunard liner Mau- retania brought the 2S persons he saved from the sinking steamer Ovidia into port today and gave thanks that there was no fog on Wednesday when his vessel went to the aid of the stricken ship.
 It was an act of God that there vas no fog over that section of the Atlantic" McNeii said. Had there been a fog it would have slowed us down and we might have missed the Ovidia all together. In that case she would have foundered."
 Carlson Shows Gratitude
 Capt. Axel Garrison of the Ovidia told his story in short sentences and made no attempt 10 dramatize the situation.
 When the Mauretania approach cd us it was the finest sight l ever SEW" he said.
 McNeil explained the details lead- ing up 10 the dramatic race between the Mauretania, former speed queen of the Atlantic, and the America, commanded by Captain George Fried hero of two other Atlantic rescues.

HOSPITAL ATTACHES
 GIVE $500 TO FUND
Mayor Quigley Credits Nurses and Internes
 With Saving His Life

Checks totalling considerably more than s200 were given Mayor George A. Quigley at the New Britain Gen eral hospital today when he ad dressed a gathering of nurses and internes.
 It was the regular bi-monthly ses- sion of the hospital Rotary club.
 When introduced by Dr. T. Eben Reeks, superintendent of the hos pital, Mayor Quigley spoke of the sacrifices which must be made by young women who enter the nursing profession. He referred to the time when he was a patient at the insti tuition last spring and referred to his two nurses, Miss Barbara Blair and Miss Margaret Covaluskie, as two of the finest nurses he had ever met, and 10 whose painstakins care he attributed to a large extent his recovery. Giving credit for his re- covery also to his personal phy sicians he mentioned Dr. I. S. Geetcr whom he pointed out as That cur ly haired interne over there" as one of the kindliest and most effi- cient internes l have seen.'
 He said the care and kindness he received at the hospital had put him under life long obligations and he stood in readiness to do anything for the institution he could at any time.
 Stating that nurses meet life in the raw on the inside of the hospital, he sad he as mayor was meeting life in the raw on the outside.
 No Income But Give
 At this point Dr. Reeks explained to the nurses the details Of Mayor Quigley's relief fund for uncmploy-

Only s4 Per Cent of Money Due Re-
 corded At City Hall Up to Novem-
 Der 1, Less Than For Two Previ-
 ous Years-Loomis Believes New
 Britain Stands Well Compared to
 Other Cities.
 If the estimated income from taxation, specified in the current fiscal years budget, is to be met, it will be necessary for Tax Collector Bernadotte Loomis to collect s341,- 901.52 during the period from No- vember 1 to March 31, 1881, figures issued at his office today disclosed. Due to the general business depres- sion, receipts of the office this year are farther behind than ever before, in proportion to the total amount to be collected, and indications are that the budget requirements will not be met.
 New Britain Mark Good
 Collector Loomis is making every effort to bring in the money but many property owners are finding it difficult to meet their obligations to the city, a condition which is true in all parts of the country, according to reports in various publications Compared to other cities in Con necticut. New Britain is doing fairly well. MT. Loomis said.
 S4 Per Cent On Nov. 1
 On November 1, the receipts of the tax office totaled s2,S22, 2,314.20. which was .844 per cent of the total due on the current fiscal years taxes. In 1929. s3,009,092.39 had been collected on the corresponding date, which was .S76 of the total, and in 1928, s2.762,456.S6, which was .S96 of the total. had been ac- counted for.
 From Nov. 1, 1929. to March 31, 1930. s215,726.13 was collected, which was s29,68442 short of the budget requirements, and year prior to that period, $144, 4246S was collected, or s59.36o.54 less than the budget called for.
 Payments Falling on In normal times, it was not un- usual for Collector Loomis to col lcct more than the budget called for, Lut for the past few years he has been unable to keep up his record. Should the years receipts fall s117,- 900 below the budget requirements, the shortage will be equivalent to a full mill on the grand list.

Spanish Envoy Says Kaiser Opposed Execution of
 Edith Cavell

Brussels, Nov. 21 CP}-How tie Marquis De Nillalobar, Spanish am- hassador 10 Belgium, and Hugh s. G ibson, then first secretary to the American legation. tried to prevent inc execution of Nurse Edith Cavell by the Germans is told in extracts published from the diary of Marquis .De Villalobar.
 The marfuis relates that at Glb- rons request the two of them went to Baron Von Der Lancken. then di- rector of political affairs in the oc- rupied Belgian territory, and tried 10 get Miss Cavell reprieved on the eve of her execution.
 The marquis told Baron Lancken that Miss Cavell may have sent hundreds of men to the front by means of her ambulance, but if you kill her she will send millions against you from her tomb"
 The former emperor is pictured by the marquis as having become very angry when he learned of the execution. He is said to have Ieprimanded those who permitted it 10 occur and to have ordered that in the future no women were to be executed.
 Miss Cavell, head of an English nurses training school in Brussels, was executed by the Germans Oct. 31, 1915, on the charge of assisting British, French and Belgian pris- oners in the occupied territory to es- cape.
 The marquis, in his diary, says he was dining with Baron Lambert Rothschild when Gibson arrived in great distress and asked to speak to him on matter of the most urgent importance. He then told him of several cases of espionage pending before the German military tribunal in which two French, one Belgian woman and Miss Cavell were involv- ed.
 He said Miss Cavell had been con- demned to death and was to be ex- ecuted at dawn of the next day. He asked the marquis to take the place of Brand Whitlock, the American minister who was i'll in bed with a high fever, and make every repre- sentation possible with the German authorities to stay the execution.
 The marquis says he and Gibson
