1NINTH AND COMMERCIAL ST&
IV Ml YORK CARED
FOR 'finer IN
THE SPLENDID EXAMPLE OF
READY CHARITY IN THE
GREAT SEAPORT.
. NEW YORK, Feb, 12. That has-
bands and fathers have just been re
stored to 84 wives and 135 children
at the homes of seamen and stokers
of the sunken steamship "Republic"
in Liverpool was reported at the
headquarters of the American Sea
men's Friend Society in this city to
day. The census of the home folks
who so narrowly escaped becoming
widowed and fatherless was taken
when over a hundred of these ship
wrecked seafarers flocked from the
"Baltic" to the new Seamen's Insti
tute here sick, half naked, penniless
and barfoot. Only by quick applica
tion of an emergency fund 12
hundred dollars were they able to
clothed and shod, the officers of the
society declare.
No shipwreck in the present gen
eration has demanded such immedi
ate and extensive measures for relief
as that of this big ocean liner, it is
asserted by expert workers of this
seamen's organization which has for
eighty years succored stranded sur
vivors of ocean disasters in forty of
the principal ports of the world as
well as in this city. While a thou
sand dollars was spent by them dur
ing the year 1908 to set on their feet
the victims of the coast wrecks about
this port, they say, more than this J
same sum was required in one night
to provide the men of this one ship's
stoke hole and fo'castle with the
clothes to their backs. Only by the
fortunate chance that its $300,000
Seamen's Institute had just been
opened and by the instant contribu
tions of scores of its friends here
was the society able to relieve the
crowds of shivering seamen, who
came trooping to its doors from this
shock of the seas that had left them
without money or employment in a
foreign harbor
To fit America's chief seaport with
a ready refuge for such stranded out
casts of the ocean, the officers of the
American Seaman's Friends Institute
have to-day decided to appeal to the
people of every section of the land
for a fund to be devoted to just such
emergencies as the sinking of the
"Republic." In every town in the
country they believe the families and
friends of seafaring sons will readily
lend a hand toward providing means
to instantly succor the victims of fu
ture great sea tragedies. Where es
tablished Red Cross and relief or
ganizations make the shores of other
countries thoroughly prepared to
care for large companies of stranded
sailors, America is to-day sadly up
prepared, they believe the recent
wreck of the "Republic" has shown.
"If the home folks" of every moth
er's son who risks the seas will give
up their help for this purpose, I be
lieve a splendid reserve fund can be
laid up against such emergencies on
American shores," said G. McPhe'r
son Hunter, at the headquarters of
the American Seamen's Friend So
ciety, 76 Wall Street, to-day. "The
instant contribution of $1,000 by the
people of this -city to meet the needs
of the poor fellows of the "Republic"
shows, I think, that the succor of the
seafarer is close to the hearts of our
countrymen. If the whole people
respond to our call, I know we shall
soon be equipped to meet the most
disastrous shipwreck that can come
to the doors of any of our dozen sta
tions at American ports on both the
Atlantic and the Pacific coasts."
Half a million sailors come into
port and embark each year within
a stone's throw of the new Seamen'?
Institute on the waterfront here.
With thousands more seafarers con
stantly exposed to the coast dangers
of the country, shipping experts in
this city declared to-day that every
provision should be made at once
for the results of such extensive
shipwrecks as that of the ill-fated
"Republic."

ALASKA INSANE.
Appropriation Required To Care For
Numerous Cases.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 13 -The
problem of dealing with the rapidly
increasing Alaskan insane has again
been presented to Congress-'
j Secretary Garfield of the Depart
mcnt of the Interior has requested
an additional appropriation of $75,
(XW to be made immediately for prac
tically all the money provided for
contract obligations has already been
expended. The Alaskan insane, un
der contracts, are now being cared
for by a sanitarium at Portland,
Oregon, at a cost to the government
of $384 a year per capita.
Secretary Garfield reported to Con
gress that the number of insane from
Alaska is increasing constantly and
the reason advanced is the extreme
cold and the isolation from civiliza
tion of many of the inhabitants of
that territory. There is no place in
Alaska where the insane can be cared
for.
MORE ANTI-JAP TALK.
HELENA, Mont., Feb. 13. While
there is a consensus of opinion that
the Anti-Japanese memorial which
has been introduced in the House by
Representative Norton is too dras
tic for adoption, it seems certain that
with amendments which will be of
fered it will pass the House. The
Silver Bow County delegation, 12
strong, and most of the Democrats
favor it and enough Republicans
have signified their intention to sup
port such legislation to make it al
most certain that the House, which
has a Democratic majority of five,
will send the bill to the Republican
Senate. There is seems probable the
memorial will be killed.
