DI ! '1 BY SEC. M'ADOO Ex-Corgressman Named ~ Special (nternal Revenue Agent for Conn. ndenburg’s Visit Acts As Tonic to Wounded Germans Hartford, May 5.—The question of | the future of ex-Cogressman Thomas 1. Rellly of Meriden was settled last | evening, when ‘he recétved ‘word from Secretary of the! 'Tréasury Willlam G. MeAdoo th&t, he had been ap- pointed ‘Special internal revenus agent for Connecticlt, with head- quarters' in this city. His duties will begin next week. Mr. Rellly will displace no other good .democrat as it ‘is understood that the place was creéated for him, Mr. Reilly said last evening at his home in Meriden that he would do specia]l work in connection with the ! income tax.. He was.unable to say what that particular work will be and knew of no other details. He said that James J. Walsh, collector of internal revenue for this district, had nothing whatever to do with his appointment, but that, inasmuch as Mr. Walsh ‘s the collector of the district, he sup- osed he would be urnder hla super- ‘vislon, although, he 'was acdcountable to the treasury department, i Collector Walsh said that he knew nothing of the appointment. Neither @id ne know what duties .would con- stitute the work of the former con- gressman. There have been many vonjectures as to what “Tom” Retlly would do, after his retirement ‘to private life, which dated from March 4, last, as he sévered his connection with the “Mer- iden Journal” some time ago. For a numbér of years he has given much ©of his time to. politics, having 'been ‘mayor of Meriden before being con- gressman ‘and continuing as mayor for a time while still a representative at Washington. He was the first démocrat to break into congress from this state in a number of years, hav- ing been elected in 1910 with four republicans. In 1912 he was re-elected his colleagues being four democrats. Last fall all five went down to de- feat 'in something that looked Iike a landslide. One of the things which has served to keep Mr. Rellly in the limlight is the report that the postal service em- ployess were to glve him a big purss. He had been instrumental in secyring legisiation favorable t6 their inter- ests and they gave him a reception re- cently in New York, when it was said that the purse was given to him, when, as a matter of fact, nothing of the kind was done. It was, however, afterwards said that thé receipts from thé sale of tickets to the reception | 'would ‘be presented to the former congressman and it .- was estimated that theé fund thus created = would amount 10, $30,000, | or more.

GUY FITCH, | ‘New Britain Representative Il | ik ; The Stackpole-Moore- _Tryon Go,, “é ASyiim At Trombull St, Hartford Irony of Political Fate. Mr. Reilly's appointment, which is likely; to’‘bring’ him into business re- lations’ with Collector Walsh, is an 11- lustration of the irony of a political fate. Mr. Walsh was formerly fore- man of the composing room of the ‘Meriden Journal” in which Mr, Reilly: had a financial interest ana was also active in the promotion of the political interests of the mayor- congressman. He owes his present place as . commissioner of internal revenue to the efforts of Congressman ing a political debt when he recom- mended him for the - appointment. Now Mr. = Reilly, while not, perhaps, torbe called a subordinate te Collec- tor Walsh, will, in a measure, be un- der his direction, according to the “understanding. ;It-is & number of years since “Tom’ Regliy made his headquarters in this &1ty and,. when last located in Hart- ford, he ran a baseball team which magde’ something; of a record for con- Eecutive defeats.

SHIPS NOT NAMED ON. BRITISH NAVY LIST Great Britain Evidently Considers Tt Necessary to Conceal Data of Her Naval Forces. London, April 31.—The first official navy list ever issued without th; names of ships has just appeared. 1t was evidently considered necessary to " | conceal from the Germans any data which might reveal the full utren:th of the British navy. 5 The lst of officers and men on ac- ‘| tive seryice covers eighty pages of dauble columns, while the Royal Naval Reserve and the Vpolunteer Navsl Re- serve, occupies 87 ' pages more..

Bergen-op-Zoom, Netherlands, April 30.—Dutch soldiers under arms stand at intervals along the Dutch-Belgian frontier near here, keen obseryers of the movements of the Germans in de- vastated Belgium, for Holland 'is de- termined she will not permit without | fighting the entry of forelgn troops from whatever side they may come. The Dutchmen, themselves not at Wwhr, live through at least some of the excitement of actual fighting, for in the stillness reigning over the peace- ful agricultural districts about here they can hear from time tg time the roar'of cannon from the direction of, Zeebrugge. Also they are often wit- nesses of the chase by German troops of young Belgians making a dash for ‘the frontier-in an effort to get to.Hol- land d@nd thence across the Channel to England to join the Belgian army n Flanders. Never Cease Outlook. The German sentries just over the river separating the two countries never cease their vigilafit. outlook for these' ynuhg fellows and,the precau- tiong théy Have taken revent them crossing the Ine are very stern. Bushes have been cut down and obstacles in the way of a clear viéw of the land- scape have béen removed. On the bare entanglements have been etected to a depth of many yards. Yet the young Belgians dare every- thing. They crawl beneath the wire in the night and with luck manage in many cases to get through at tha expense of torn ‘clothing and flesh. Then however, there is the open space before the fronter to negotiate. This 18 closely. guarded by German land- sturm troops, but the Belgians often try to cover it in a desperate dash un- der the fire of sentries.

Free in Belgium. Once within Dutch territory the Belgiah youths are free. As they arg fiot yet soldiers, they cannot be: in- terned and most of them make their | “vay to a port for shipmeént across the channel. The Dutch troops on other portions of the frontier have also to keep =a sharp outlook for smugglers of con- traband from their own territory into | Geérmany. These smugglers, owing to the rich profits in case of sucess, are very daring and tricky, and ‘they do not hesitate tp use violence against their own countrymen. Gasolene and horses are the,most profitable to the smugglers. The for- mer brings ‘at least treble its price in times of peace. Sound horses of any age fetch extra- ordinary high prices from the Ger- mans, anything up to $500 being pald for draft horses. Roads Closed to Traffic. All roads leading to the frontiers are closed to traffic. Directly on the border line at wide intervals stand single sentries with their loaded rifles Testing beneath their arms. About 200 yards further back is a second Une of sentinels and behind these some distance in the rear are pickets of a dozen men with a non-commis- sioned officer. The smuggler natirally keep to side paths or go across country. In case they should be seen by the pickets they are at once arrested and their loads confiscated. Often, however, | tries who firesif the smugglers, | sometmes happens, make a dash | i { | i ', at night they succeed in passing : through the gaps between the pickets. #Then their progress becomes ' more | dificult and their presence is often discovered by the inner line of sen- as to reach the German lines. Occasionally the chase is a lively one.and gives rise to a rapid -fusilade, which in many cases proves fatal to the smugglers. REGISTER SOCIETY TO GUARD SNUFF BOX London Organization Incorporates With Thirty Members, Many Noted Men. London, April 31.—A society whose sole object is to act as cus- todian for a snuff box, has just been incorporated and registered at Som- erset House.
