The Standard OwCompany thought it bad wuarantees from the _ belligerent countries freeing tts ships bound to neutral ports from danger of subma- rine attack, The Healdton was bound for Rotterdam and seemed safe under this understanding. It is therefore considered entirely abrogated The Healdton, with her cargo, was worth $2,150,000, She was built at Greenock, Scotiand, for German own- ere in 1908, and was known as the Puerilite before she was transferred to American registry two years ago Bho was 369 feet long and had 51 feet beam, She wan entirely unarm The ship sailed from Chester, Pa., Jou are read) to $120 furnished instructive, $18.50 to 40.00 and 35.00 1a e et I Jan 2%.

WASHINGTON, March 23,—Prest- dent Wilson's address to Congress taken up In its tentative form at to-day's Cabinet meeting.

I denounce this charge as wickedly and atrociously false and known by him to be false, “In view of the small attendance at this session I shall defer my re- marks until Monday night, when I shall address the Senate at length.” flenator Brown later this afternoon Introduced a substitute for a former bill calling for a condemnation of the Rockaway fortification property. The bill appropriates $2,500,000 to be made available for the Governor's commis- sion in acquiring the land. It also provides for a right of way to the property of the Rockaway Pacific Corporation. It will be acted on Mon- day night Senator Wagner left for New York this afternoon after making @ call on overnor Whitman to thank him for a statement the Governor haw issued Senator of per- in his behalf, GOV. WHITMAN FENDS AC- TION OF THE NATE, Gov. Whitman, coming to the sup- port of the Senator, issued this state. ment: “The suggestion that the members of the Senate of this State have been actuated by unworthy or unpatriotic motives in their attitude toward the Rockaway fortifications proposition, is utterly without foundation, as any- one at all familiar with the situation here must know. “The action taken represented the unanimous sentiment of the Senators present. Senator Wagner, the leader its passage, under the private as- @urance that the United States Gov- ernment had to have the land. When The Evening World exploded the secret canvass and forced the fight in the open, the bill never stood a chance for a minute. Where yesterday morning Senator Brown did not know what he would do with the situation, this morning found him trying to get his followers behind a new programme that would insure the condemnation proceedings. He was forced to this course by the @ngry defection of many of his party who would not to get bebind the Mills bill. Mr. Mills was not in his @eat when the storm broke. “CAN'T LET SHARKS THROTTLE STATE,” SAYS BROWN, Senator Brown, who changed his mind a) a yey > of the Injunction roceedt: ings, | Senate character- aerate tives, of those interested gale of the-land as “unpatri- cannot permit these land sharks to take the State by the neck 4nd throttle it” He later remarked w the new: women: “Superia- tendent of Public Works Wother- spoon, who is a former army officer, and who knowe the situation, told the ublican conference that it was not necessary to hurry action on the Mille bill or any other measure.” Indignation among legislators over Mayer Mitchel’s accusation against Wagner seems certain to result in defeat of any proposal from the city lor @ solution of the dispute over the fort site, “Mayor Mitchel ought ashamed of himself,” waa the s\ ment of Senator Sage, Republi Albany, Chalrman of the Financ Committee, which considered Rockaway legislation, "Mr. Wagner's course has been the right one.” “Low, mean and contemptible,” were the words used by Senator Mor- ris 8, Halliday, Ret iiean, of Ithaca, in characterizin, vai rd ut- terance concern!
