The president of the Moccasin steamship line, operators of the fleet, said he had not been officially advised of the decree. Several steamship men said that the ruling, if enforced, would be a seri- ous bandicap for American ships in competition with British passenger Hnes in the same service. Only one passenger ship of the government-owned fleet is ready for operation thus far. Six other ships are being made ready for Munzon line South American serviee and the big Leviathan is being reconditioned = to| enter the tramsatlantic trade.

C. W, GALE COMPLETED BY HIS WIDOW The hundreds of friends of the late Colonel Charles William Gale, who mourn his death as deeply now as when it occurreq so unexpectedly, May 21st last, found consolation Tuesday in the gift of a most beautiful and artistic memorial to him. The exqui- site book represents a labor of love on the part of his widow, and ig sent out with the significant greeting card: ‘With wishes for the season’s' great- -est blessing and joy, 1 send this me- merial of Colonel Charles W. Gale to | you who have shared in his friend-. ship. GERTRUDE HAKES GALE. Pinehurst, Norwich, Conn. + The memorial is printed in black, on paper of a delicate gray tint and is perfection of the book-maker’s art. It was compiled and privately printed by Mrs. Gale. A most lifelike, auto- graphed portrait of Colonel Gale, from the Cyclopedia of American Bio- graphy, is the full-page frontispiece. The foreword states that so many loving tributes of high regard and ap- preciation have appeared in print and in letters received since the death of Colonel Gale that some permanent form of presentation has seemed nec- essary. Then follows a sketch of Col- onel Gale, a diseriminating and un- derstanding -narrative of his life and activities, his varied business, social and religious interests. The account of his funeral services is given. with the eulogy proncunced by Rev.Charles H. Ricketts. The editorial comments of the two local papers on Colonel Gale’s death as such a distinct loss to the town in which he filled go im- portant a place, precede an apprecia- tion by Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D, 1of Yonkers, N. Y., a former pastor of the Central Baptist ehurch, Norwich. There is an account, also, of me- morial services held in that church on tribute by Charles D. Noyes, president of ‘the board of management, Deacons Purkiss. Various tributes of respect and res- olutions of sympathy follow—from the Central Baptist Sunday schoel, the City Bible Class for Men, the Thames National Bank, the Norwich Chamber of Commerce, and the United Work- ers. The volume closes with a beau- tiful poem written for Mrs. Gale by her niece, Alif Stephens, of Washing- ton, D. C., a tender tribute to one who, although in frail health, has manifest- ed heroic fortitude, ignoring pain and setting aside consideration of personal grief and loneliness,. that this rare volume might be completed for the solace of Colonel Gale’s numberless friends and as a leving tribute to his 1| helpful anq unselfish life and mani- told good deeds.
