ASTONISHES BOARD MEETING Outburst Provoked by Criticism . of Officials for Delaying Action On Typhiod. Richmond, Va.,,June 24. Carlton McCarthy, former Mayor of Richmond, gave a sensational turn to the typhoid fever epidemic controversy to-day, when at the session of the administra tive board, of which he is a member, and which controls the water system of the city, took the floor on a point of personal privilege. He termed an article and an editorial in yesterday's Times-Dispatch relative to the board's delay in acting on the water question as deliberate lies' and hurled denunciations at the proprietors and editors .of the paper, despite the efforts of cooler heads among the members of the board, who sought to calm him. Captain McCarthy said a McNamara was needed in Richmond to destroy the newspaper plant owned by the, Bryan estate, and in the heat of his speech he offered a motion that the administrative board instruct the City Engineer to place bichloride of mercury in the pipes leading to the Laburnum property, owned by the Bryan estate, and into the pipes running to the new 10-story building occupied by the Times-Dispatch. The motion was not considered by thc board. Dr. E. C. Levy, chief health officer of Richmond, recently asserted that the prevailing typhoid visitation was caused hv ritv water, thc noxious conditions 1 i -,:n when one of the basin? . !,:.': ed out. He recommended : I-; liloride plant be installed to y (' water and prevent the spread ' r i ..lady. "I !ii ard was impressed with thc f City Engineer Bulling that nything was wrong with the water nd, ignoring the recommendations f the city health officer, ordered Dr. . M. Whitfield, City Chemist, to make n analysis of thc water. This delayed preventive measures. While there have been no deaths since last week from typhoid, the turn er of cases increased by four to-day, making a total of 52. Because the dministrative board went over the head of Dr. Levy, who is recognized as the best health officer thc city has ever had, having reduced thc death rate from typhoid two-thirds in six cars, the Times-Dispatch editorially criticised thc board's action, closing with these words: The people of Richmond can sub mit to waste, delay, petty politics, jealousy and ignorance in money matters. They" will not submit to the risk of life for any reason in thc world. The life of one child is worth the whole $25,000 paid five men to protect the city by quick and responsive action. If one death can be-traied to this delay, these men will be crushed by a savage public opinion ind an eternal remorse. They had best heed the warning. ; They are playing with 4 ljfe. The-public demands protection, 4 Captain - McCarthy said the articles were as tab at him and affected his wife and children,. They might have been,.;; written men who may be drunken buzzards or absolutely in-. sane, he declared. He added: ;'I have written John Stewart Bryan, president 01 the-Times-Dispatch over my own signature that if. he continues these assaults he docs so at his own hazard. VJThe State will not be big enough: to hold both of us, and if he continues to make the assaults I will cut his throat as I would cut the throat of a butcher's Jog; V ' .

INTERFERENCE IS PROPOSED Investigator Tells of Conditions I Along the Gulf Coast from Louisiana to Florida. Baltimore, June L INatlOnal I interference to protect child- ren and older persons against an alleged system of peonage in which foreigners tauen trom Baltimore to work in oyster I and shrimp canneries in the South are alleged frequently to be involved is proposed in a report issued by the National Child Labor Committee. "Baltimore to Biloxi and Back" is the title of the opening chapter of the re port, written by Lewis W. Hine, one of the investigators of the Child Labor Committee. In it he tells of conditions along the Gulf coast from New Orleans Eastward to Florida and along the Atlantic coast of Mary land, .the Carolinas and Georgia. The working forces for the canneries in these districts, it is alleged, are rppriMfrpH larcrplv from the fnreic-n population of Baltimore. I "Every year about October," Mr. Hine says, "hundreds of Polish and Bohemian people (some authorities say thousands) are herded together by various bosses or 'padrones' and shipped to the Southern coast by boat and by train." Children lrom tour years oi age upward are employed, it is asserted, in work that i "deadening in its mo notony, cxhai sting phy ically, irregular and its only joy being thc closing hour. We might even say of these children that thev are condemned to work I have been hoirlfied," Mr. Hine adds, "at the number of hours a day a 6 or 7 year old will stay at work." Pictuics of little children workers and scenes about the canneries are used to illustrate thc report, and Edward F. Brown, who contributes the secom chapter, "The Toiling Children of thc Gulf Coast lactones, gives statistics ind interviews to show i l;.it Nate law arc evaded to secure tin- services of workers as voune as years, who earn 10 or 15 cents a day. A footnote to tin- report states that charges that maav workers taken from Baltimore are promised tran portation back to this city were left in the South to find their own way back have been substantiated by affidavits Charges of the violation of laws against peonage have grown out the treat ment of larire parties of the-.e workers taken from Baltimore, it is stated. The report concludes with this com ment by Owen R. Lovcjoy: The annual migration of hundreds of little children from thc vegetable and berry fields of Maryland and Delaware down the Atlantic coast to thc oyster and shrimp canneries of the Gulf to work all winter, and their return in the spring to complete the 12 months of servitude again bending at their tasks under the hot sun of the Northern plantations, presents a spectacle of inter-State commerce in children which this republic canrot afford longer to ignore. We should welcome some arrangement among the States involved to sec that this inter State outrage is ended. But if thc States will not act, we demand, not 0 ily in the interest of humanity but in the interest of common decency i d good citizenship, that the Govern 8) :nt at Washington shall actively demonstrate that -Its jurisdiction ex tends to all who are under its flag."

Mr. Taylor ran over to the New Bern Fire Engine Company'.-. headquarters while Mr. Cooler rushed into the Journal office just adjacent to the Xew Bern Electrical Supply Company and informed the occupant of the close proximity of the blaze.

First IS AVERTED JAPANESE HERE INQUIRY TOR Member of Recently Organized Party Comes Over To Look Around a Bit. SENT BY LEADER OF PARTY Plans to Study Sentiment of The Eastern States As To Jap anese Land Ownership. New York, June 24. Kjujiru Ok azaki, member of the Japanese Parli ament and of thc recently formed Desikai, or Ideal Party, a progressive party, whose aim is to promote peace and good feeling between Japan and the United States, has arrived in this country for the express purpose of ascertaining the real feeling in the eastern part of the United States toward California's anti-Japanese land law. Marquis Katsura is the leader of the new party, Mr. Okazaki said, and it is especially at the Marquis's request that Mr. Okazaki came on this mission. He represents in the Japanese Parli mcnt Gifu, a county near Tokio and is a member of thc Tokio Cham ber of Commerce. This is his third visit to America. He was last here ten years ago. Mr. Okazaki left Tokio April 17 on a tour of the world with no thought of coming here on a mission. In London he received from the Marquis hisre- quest. 'Our party is in favor of friendly relations with the United States," said Mr. Okazaki. "We kn ow what he sentiment toward us is in the West ern States and I want to learn what ts the sincere sentiment toward us n the East, not tlu. sentiment of courtesv. We believe that President Wilson, Secretary Brvan and the Anieri- 111 Government and the Ea-ii i n Man-- generally have a verv In. udlv heling j ward us.

War between Japan and the United States sounds nonsensical. In thc first place, there is no reason for war. Secondly, where will Japan get the money for war? Those newspapers in Japan that talk of war are insignificant and not widely read. All we want is to be trea'cd nicely in thc United States." Mr. Okazaki is a bisrball fan. "I am chairman of baseball in Japan," said he. "I love to sec Americans play the game, they play so smart, nice and closely. I am going to sec the game tomorrow at the Polo Grounds between thc New Yorks and the Brook lyns." Then Mr. Okazaki, peace apostle' drew a very small and costly camera from his vest pocket and mapped the Goddess of Liberty. He went to the Hotel McAlpin. During thc past two weeks a number . of decayed trees located at different points in the city, have been cut down.
