|O|L MAN OFFERS
TO FINANCE HUNT
FOR JOBLESS AID
Henry L. Doherty Gives $780,
600 to Fund Asked BY
Scientist Group

Kansas City, Sept. 10.-R,-Henry
L. Doherty has challenged the asser.
ton Of q fellow engineer that respon-
sibility for the present unemployment
situation rests upon applied science
and has given 100000 to obtain the
facts.
DR.. Roy v. Wright. president Of the
! American Society Of Mechanical En-
gineers and editor Of Railway Age. Is
sued the charge against engineers and
scientists in q speech before the Ma
tional Association Of Power Engineers
here Monday. The head Of the Cities
Service company answered him We'd
nesday.
DR.. Wright had said distribution
and consumption have been thrown
out Of balance with production" as q
result Of their work and ut Is their
business now to apply their science In
correcting the situation Of unemploy-
ment."
DR.. Wright urged that engineers at.
tempt to obtain 100000 to find q
remedy, saying the American Council
of Engineers had recognized the
need, but 50 far has been ~unsuccesS-
full"
Doherty announced, In a telegram
to the Kansas City Journal-Post, that
he had wired DR.. Wright protesting
against the phrasing Of the speech,
denying personal responsibility for
the industrial tangle and offering the
entire research fund himself.
The utilities magnate said he did
not believe he would hesitate to
promise to raise five million dollars
IF you really have any sound ideas
for correcting economic problems
that face this country"
II have instructed the Chase Ma
tional bank" he stated, Ito transmit
$500, 900 to the Commerce Trust COM
pany Of Kansas City for the needs
you represent as necessary and sug-
gest that you lay your problems be-
fore the Chamber OF Commerce Of
Kansas City.
Doherty. identifying himself as both
an engineer and q scientist, said II
DR.. Wright felt that II you and per-
haps other engineers and scientists
are to blame for this depression you
are free to make such a charge
against yourself and others and then
make a confession for yourself and
others"
But I think you should do It for
yourself" he stated, and not for the
society or for other engineers"

MR.. FITZGERALD recounts that
" the "other two attacking par.

ties had expended their energies In
getting Inside the defenSeS, and two block
houses still remained to be taken"
"a brisk fire was beginning to pour upon the
Americans from these two houses" he relates,
"but battering parties beat in the doors and
inside of 10 more minutes Tallmadge's men haA
possession of the entire works.
''The growing light now showed a British
supply schooner at anchor close to the shore,
near the fort. A detachment captured her with
ridiculous ease. The rapidity of the attack
had protected the attackers and they had not
lost a man. and only one Of them was wounded.
The British loss was several killed and wounded
and most Of the latter were MORALLY hurt.
1.-THE fort and the schooner were set on fire
and the prisoners, over so in number, were
started back toward the boats under q guard.
Leaving a small force to see to it that the fort
was completely destroyed, Talmadge marched
with the rest toward Coram.
1.-THE few sentries found there fed, and the
hay was pulled loose and set on fire. Over 300
tons went up In rolling coulds Of smoke and as
soon as the fire was going beyond all hope OF
extinguishment Talmadge and his hay burns
ers started back for their boats. BY taking q
different road and by rapid marching, they
joined the men they had left at Fort st.
George and overlook the prisoners and their
guard inside of two hours.
EFT was now broad daylight and the loyalist
militia were beginning to swarm in their rear.
But the two huge columns of smoke, one at
Fort st. George and one at Coram, several
miles apart as well as the unbelievable audacity
Of body of rebel troops daring to land on Long
Island, kept the loyalist militia from approach
ing too near They could not believe that only

a dangerous raid inside the British lines before
dawn on November %, $780, He again dis
played outstanding valor in another hazardous
raid right under the noses of the British, on
October 3, 1881.
Both raids were planned and directed by
Maj. Benjamin Tallmadge Of the End CONT
mental Dragons, chief of Washington's intelli-
gence service.
Maj. Tallmadge had received information
concerning a huge supply Of hay-several hun
dred tons Of it-that had been stored for VIM
ter forage in building at Coram, on the north
shore Of Long Island Hay, In that day Of cav
airy supremacy, was one of the important sup
plies of warfare. Without it an army was seri-
ously handicapped. It was prize worth rum
ming great risks to capture
Maj Tallmadge relayed the information d.
rect to Gen. Washington, with an astounding
plan for attempting not only to destroy the
forage but to storm fertilization which pro-
tected it. The intrepid major was authorized
to make the attempt.
Tie fertilization, known as Fort ST. George,
consisted Of three sturdy block houses, sur
rounded by a tall stockade Of pointed posts.
Outside the stockade there had been dug deep
trench and this in turn, was guarded by q wall
Of earth and stones.
Several cannon poked their muzzIes menac-
ingly through the walls Of the block houses

free country is thus open to all-this order is
also to have retrospect to the earliest stages of
the war, and to be considered as q permanent
one"
A PPARENTLY the only names ever written
in the "book of merit" were those Of three
Connecticut "non-coms," Sergt. Elijah Church
ILL., of the End Continental Dragons; Sergt.
Daniel Brown of the 5th Connecticut Regiment,
and Sergt Daniel BisselI of the End Connecti-
cut Regiment.
According to the original citation now pre-
served at the Library Of Congress, "Sergt.
Churchill of the End Regiment of Light Dra-
goons, in the several enterprises against Fort
st. George and Fort Slongo on Long Island
i. acted q very conspicuous and singularly
meritorious part" 1t was the opinion Of the
board Of awards that at the head Of each body
of attack he not only acquitted himself with
great gallantry firmness and address, but that
the surprise in one instance and the success
Of the attack in the other, proceeded in q con-
siderable degree from his conduct and man
agement"
Historians, intrigued by this imagination
capturing citation, have dug into the glamorous
past and patched together fairly complete
story of Sergt. Churchill's exploits in "the sew
eral enterprises" on Long Island.
The most Illuminating product Of these re-
searches Is an account prepared some years
ago by John c. Fitzpatrick, while he was as
SiStant chief Of the manuscript division of the
Library Of Congress Mr.. Fitzpatrick now Is
affiliated with the George Washington Bicen-
tennial Commission. His account was published
a decade ago in the official magazine Of the
Daughters Of the American Revolution.
Sergt. Churchill first attracted the attention
