National Guards Must
Conform With Standards
of Regular Army Men
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C„ Jan. 5. —A clean
issue has been made between the War
Department and the National Guard
Association of the United States upon
the point of organization of the mili
tia forces of the country. By direc
tion of Secretary Garrison, Major Gen
eral Wood, as chief of staff of the
army, has issued a circular —No. 13—
announcing the decision of the judge
advocate, General Crowder, that the
militia must conform In organization
to the standards of the regular army,
else they will he deprived of all Fed
eral financial support.
This decision is of the greatest Im
portance If the government Is to bo
able to make use of the mtlitla in an
emergency. But one important re
quirement was ignored by many
States because Immediate compliance
with it was not insisted upon by the
War Department. That was that the
State militia should be organized into
brigades and divisions.
At the office of the Adjutant Gen
eral It was stated to-day that the Ad
jutant General had requested that the
Pennsylvania militia lie recognized as
a division. It was also stated that
the organization of the auxiliary troops
required was in progress.

wide strike in sympathy with the
Michigan and Colorado minerß.
"Any such demand must be made
on the American federation of La

his words carefully. "If such a thing
is considered it would be considered
by that body."
"Have you asked for a nation-wide
strike?" he was asked.
"There has been considerable pres

made. However, it may be said that

Mr. Drake denied that there was any

"To be frank," he said, "all this is
caused by a crowd of knockers in
Wilkes-Barre who are complaining be
cause we have not been able to pay a
dividend as we promised. We have
been unable to take up the peat bog
proposition because the man who has
a mortgage raised a kick, but we

New York. Jan. S. Tlio tank

yesterday was the Oklahoma and
twenty-two of her crew perished.
Eight were saved. This was the sub

here to-day.
Although several vessels were stand
ing by the distressed tank liner, the
Hamburg-American Line freighter Ba

Boston, was the only one able to ren

Although the disaster occurred less

Heavy Storm Sweep*
\ Piers and Buildings
at New Jersey Resort
J .
W ftptcial to The Telegraph
AtlanMc City, N. J.. Jan. 6.—With
the arrival of dawn yesterday the
havoc wrought by the furious storm
that assailed the entire beach front
from the Inlet to Longport was re
vealed to view, and while the damage
was not as great as was expected, It
was sufficient to spread gloom among
residents of the flood-ridden area. Tho
combination of flood tide and north
east gale, always a terror to residents
of Absecon Island, left its trail of de
struction In Atlantic City, Margate
City, Longport and Ventnor, and in
the breathing spell afforded by its
slight cessation during the day, they
are taking account of the storm's toll
and preparing to light its further In
roads. A freshening wind blowing
from the northeast and threatening to
again assume the proportions of a gale
is causing grave concern.
The hundreds who hurried to the
Boardwalk were treated to a spectacle
that has seldom, If ever, been witness
ed here. Of Young's ocean pier, at the
foot of Tennessee avenue, there re
mained only pilings crazily swaying
before the waves at the seaward end,
and that portion fronting on the
Boardwalk bore mute evidence of the
furious onslaughts to which it had
been subjected during the night.
Wreckage Several Feet Peep
No further damage was done at tho
Million Dollar Pier than the destruc
tion to Its extreme seaward end, 600
feet in length, but the structure front
ing on the Boardwalk was completely
surrounded by a mass of wreckage
several feet In depth.
At the Inlet, a short distance away
in the direction of the Ul-fated Vani
man's hangaar, the Inlet yacht Mas
cotte, owned by Captain Charles Gale,
has been drtven ashore and is being
pounded to pieces.
The greatest damage to the beach
front was done at South Carolina ave
nue, where two valuable pavilions, sur
mounting immense concrete founda
tions. have been closed to the public
through fear that they may collapse.
The foundation? of stores fronting on
.the Boardwalk ; t North Carolina ave
nue are In so weakened a condition
ithat fears of their collapse are enter
tained. I*arge forces of workmen la
bored here and other places during
the night, working In water that
reached waist high and guided by Im
provised lights that presented a weird
spectacle to daring spirits who re
mained on the 'Walk during the night,
|unable to resist the lure of the ocean
iln its ugliest mood.
Irfingport Damage Severe
By far the greatest damage was
done at T>ongport and Margate City,
two miniature municipalities on the
extreme southern end of Absecon
Island. Maintaining an anxious vigil
during the night, residents of these
two communities discovered at dawn
that heavy damage had been done, al
though their worst had not been real
ised.
A half score cottages In the two
cities had either fallen before the fury
of the waves or stood tottering before
their fall; concrete bulkheads, design
ed to withstand the shock of the heav
iest seas, had crumbled like papier
mache before the Irresistible waves;
sections of the boardwalk that had not
been washed away stretehed or twißt
ed, distorted mass of lumber and steel
for a distance of two miles, and the
seas, biting huge chunks out of the
beach front, had encroached to the
doors of many homes hitherto consid
ered Immune from the heaviest
storms.
Numerous Thrilling KPSCUPR
When victims of the llood met to
discuss their misfortunes they learned
that the terrors of the night had not
failed to bring to light men of heroic
action. To a half score of these, some
of., whom modestly, refused to disclose
their Identity, does Abdel Kader, a
well-known artist, residing In Margate
City, owe his life. Asleep In his home
at Monroe street and the beach, he was
