FOR SALE: 75 TON WHALE THAT'S DEAD LONG TIME n O Care TEWPLETON DENIES .~ ATTACKING SOLONS Insists Published Reports o Spoech Wore Distorted |1 nt et At i ocunat Biloxi Sheriff Must Auc cass Concerning Which There is Lawsuit, whale 80 feet long were the center of interest here today for the deputy was scheduled to deliver an oration over the carcass and attempt to sell it at auction by virtue of a federal court order, It I the same whale the marshal was ordered earlier in the |week to bring into court after a New = |Orleans fisherman had obtained a writ of replevin in his awtempt to gain possession of ft, Rojelio l.opez and his crew of fish- ermen found the whale floating at sea off Biloxi two wecks ago, bent a line to it and towed it to shallow water near Deer Island. They anchored it and staked their claim by attaching a placard bearing the name of Topez and that of his boat, When they re- turned they found an enterprising Biloxian had taken possession and after the fashion of the late P. T, Barnum was running excursions to the whale and collecting gate receipts. Lopez then appealed to the federal court, The whale is to be sold at auction today “between the hours of 11 a. m. and 4 p. m.” and the court will take charge of the proceeds, It already has the gate reccipts and when the case comes up during the June term of court will determine whether the money shall go to Topez and his mates or to J. T. Despert, of this city, the alleged claim jumper. The whale now is only good for fer- tillzer, and the purchaser, if there is one, is expectad to be one of the con- cerns along the coast which manu- tacture fertilizer from firs products, There is much speculation as to what course the marshal will follow in the event no bid is offered, for something must be done with the 75 ton whale and that quickly. It has Leen dead a long, long time, LASSEN PEAK SPITTING FORTH LAYA OUTBURSTS Hartford, April 21.—Governor Tem- pleton last night asked the Court to deny a published report that he had altacked the legislature in a speech before the Civitas club yesterday noon, He declared that statements which he made in support of his plan for a organization of the state highway de partment and his proposal for the cs- tablishment of a state purchasing de- partment were distorted, “I did not say that ‘members of the legislature woud sacrifice anything else to get half a mile of roadway installed,’ as presented in the Hartford Times,” declared the gov- ernor, “To {llustrate what the high- way commission is up against under the present system, 1 merely stated what every one knows that a great many of the membe come into Hart- tord with pet highway projects which to them are paramount in importance to almost anything else. 1t is up to the commissioner, under the present gystem, to turn down most of these pet projects. “Commissioner Bennett became un- popular with the legislature because he had to refuse so many of the rep- resentatives with the result that, when he wanted his salary increased there wasn't much chance of getting it through. If the commissioner had a board of directors behind him to make the decisions on all requests for high- way construction, the. commissioner would be spared this embarrassment and be free to follow his technical work unmolested, That's substan- tially what T said. T can't understand how it could have been so twisted in the newspaper reports.” With regard to a statement in the newspaper report representing the executive as having said that “leg- islators did not have the courage of their convictions, but were like so many ants at the capitol, following where they were led,” the governor| said: “Nothing was said about following where they were led. I was appeal- | Ing to the club members, as represen- tative of the people, to take an inter- est in state affairs and help their rep- resentatives at the capitol to keep in touch with public opinion, ‘come to the capitol even when you have not a particular mission,” I urged, adding that ‘it was a relief to a governor to have a visitor who didn’t start out by saying, ‘I don't want a thing,’ only to ask for some kind of an appointment of favor before leaving.
