In record time the city council yes

rier for the fire department, at $100 a
month. This man will visit all the fire
houses with a portable forga and an

iti:rii(i:s after long business
CAREER
After an association of forty-six years
with the largest collar and cuff industry
in the country, Mr. Robert Cluett retires
from the presidency of Cluett, Peabody &
Co. and from active participation In busi
ness. Mr. Cluett, who has occupied the
presidency of the company for the past
nix years, will be succeeded by Mr. F. F.
Peabody, a gentleman whose long famili
arity and actlvlty'in the direction of af
fairs of the company eminently fit him
for the office.
Mr. Cluett's retirement brings about
several other changes in official positions.
Robert Cluett, jr., succeeds to the office oi
vice president, formerly occupied by Mr.
Peabody. C. A. Cluett becomes the secre
tary of the company, and the name of A.
GUlesple Is added to the board of direc
tors.
As the makers of the famous Arrow and
Cluett brands of collars, and of Monarch
and Cluett shirts, the firm of Cluett, Pea
l'ody & Co. Is known from one end of the
country to the other. The changes above
reported will in no way affect the former
policy of the business, and it will be noted
that Mr. Cluett, in retiring from the presi
dency, leaves others of his name to per
petuate the reputation of this name which
has become so well known In connection
with collars and cuffs.
OUTFALL FUND
RUNNING LOW
FINANCE COMMITTEE WILL
TACKLE PROBLEM
Only $89,000 Remains In Sewer Fund,
Which In June Will Be Ex.
hausted, Council Is
Advised
Heeding the suggestion of the board
of public works the council will make
provisions so that work on the outfall
sewer will not be interrupted when the
funds run out.
Only about $86,000 remains unex
pended in the outfall fund and this will
be used up in a few weeks at the pres
ent rate of progress of operations.
The council yesterday heard the fol
lowing summary of the situation read:
"The board calls attention to the
condition of the outfall sewer fund:
On May 1, 1907, the balance to the credit
of this fund was $85,592.57. Expendi
tures are being made out of this fund
at a rate that will exhaust the bal
ance about the end of the first week in
June, 1907.
"The city engineer Is conducting the
work of constructing the outfall sewer
with gratifying results and the board
again calls attention to this question in
order that funds may be provided prior
to the said date, so that the work of
construction may be continued without
interruption."
The council immediately referred the
question of getting funds to the finance
committee.
The outfall sewer during the past
winter Inundated lands of Ed Baldwin
to the extent of forty acres. Mr. Bald
win has presented claims for damages
to the board of. public works, and after
careful consideration the board deter
mined that $200, or the sum of $5 per
acre as the net loss by reason of Inun
dation should be paid to Mr. Baldwin.
The board presented to the council a
demand in favor of Baldwin for $200
in full satisfaction of all his claims
against the city and the claim was or
dered settled.
LIBRARY SECURES
POSTHUMOUS WORK
Son of Charles A. Dana Sends Letter
Written by His Father from .
Bloody Battle,
field
Another fine posthumous contribu
tion to the public library autograph
archive has Just been received from
Paul Dana. It is a letter written by
his father, Charles A. Dana, the man
who made the New York Sun, and
was written nearly forty-three years
ago to his little boy at home, from one
of the bloodiest battlefields of the Civil
War. Even the date is suggestive to
those who know their country's his
tory—Cold Harbor, Va., June 2, 1864 —
for this was the day when Grant's
men In blue and Lee's men in gray
rested from sheer exhaustion from
yesterday's fearful fight to a far more
sanguinary struggle on the morrow.
There is another human touch In
this letter, written under these cir
cumstances by one of the foremost
and busiest war correspondents to his
little boy, then 14 years old.
The Letter
HEADQUARTERS ARMIES OF
THE UNITED STATES, Cold Harbor,
Va., June 2, 1864.— My Dear Paul: We
came here with the headquartera camp
this morning, and I am now writing
in Gen. Grant's big tent, while he lies
asleep on his cot. It ia about 4 o'clock
In the afternoon and has been very
hot all day, and so dusty along the
roads and over the sandy corn fields
that you could scarcely breathe. But
now there is a fresh and pleasant
breeie, the precursor of a thunder
storm whose black clouds is Just ris
ing upon the northeastern horizon.
For an hour I have not heard the
cannon till Just this moment. One Is
now hoarsely booming in the south
west, where the lines of the two armies
confront each other. We expected to
have had a great battle today, but the
troops which were expected to fight
were so tired from machlng all night
thnt Gen. Grant gave orders that no
attack should be made until tomorrow
morning at half past 4 o'clock. Then,
if nothing happens in the meantime to
change his plan, we shall have plenty
of fighting. There was a good deal of
It yesterday, too. Here on this very
ground Gen. Wright fought and
whipped the enemy, and a little further
west, at Bethesda church, Gen. Warren
did the same thing. And it is very
hard and very obstinate fighting, too.
It scarcely seems possible that human
nature should hold out amid such con
stant and such terrific conflicts as we
have had for nearly a month, but as I
watched Gen. Hancock's troopa march-
Ing along before my tent at daylight
this morning on their way to this place
it seemed as if they were going to a
festival rather than to a battle. They
went swinging along with head erect
and Elastic step, not the least like men
who had been fighting all the day be
fore and marching all night.
The place les very near Games Mill,
where the first of those disastrous
battles was fought that resulted in the
failure of McClellan's peninsular cam
paign. But we have different soldiers
and a different general now, and shall,
I do not doubt, bring matters to a very
different conclusion.
Now I have written you a pretty long
letter, and I think you might write me
several in reply. It Is a great comfort
and delight to get a letter from home.
Good by, my darling boy. Give my
dearest love to mamma and the girls.
Your affectionate father.
C. A. DANA.
TEAMSTER INJURED IN
COLLISION WITH CAR
