THE MARINE DISASTER.
Captain Allen Claims That He Did Not
Desert His Crew.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 3.-Captain John
Allen, of the schooner Hargrayes,
reached the city today, and corroborated
the story told by First Mate Perrin,
throwing the blame for the collision en-
tirely on the Spanish steamer. He EN-
phatically denies the charge that he
abandoned Second Mate Walker and
some of the seamen. He says that as
he pushed off he told them to jump over
board, and they would pick them up
but they didn't do it. He returned
with the long boat to the vessel. Other
Spaniards would, in their craze, have
jumped III and swamped the boat, and
drowned all.

A CAPITAL CASHIER.

1t will be interesting to watch the way
DR.. Joseph Kurtz runs for county treas
urer. When a man has lived for long
time la community he has either made
a host of friends or a multitude of enc
mics. DR.. Kurtz enjoys the pleasing
distinction of counting the former by
troops, and IL would require a ninety
million magnifyipg glass to discover 3
single enemy be has made that an hon
est man should nst have. As against
Jabez Banbury, who is mere ideal to
most Angele1os, he presents concrete
re personality, most attractive ana com
manding. Rich through the practice OF
his profession, and incapable OF wrong
doing, he appeals to the voter as an old
timer, and as man who has signalized
every decade OF his residence in Los An
geles by good deeds and pleasant
associations with our people.
We can see no reason why DR..
Kurtz should not be triumphantly
elected. His intelligence is of the high
est order and his business experience
extensive. The man who has managed
his own business affairs with such signal
success is very apt to conduct those OF
the people with equal ability. Then
rally to the support of Kurtz, and crown
an honorable and successful career with
this decisive mark Of the confidence OF
his fellow-citizens.

any dickering or trading. In this
connection we will just add thai while
there will be no trading on the Demo-
cratic side it is pretty well understood
that the whole Republican ticket, from
top to bottom, from all the indications,
is to be traded off for Martin Aguirre
for sheriff and Jabez Banbnry for coun-
'ty treasurer. The Expresses article is
the old, old device of "stop thief, and
Woodson's little game" will scarcely
work in this instance.

The ..'stuffers'' have been at work in
Los Angeles in fine shape, as the we'll
informed know. A practical illustra-
tion of this fact was afforded yesterday
by the advent of Frank B. Schultz and
Joseph ID. Ford. They were promptly
arrested and bailed out in the sum of
$500 each. Bail was given by Colonel
III. G.. Otis. We would remind all per-
sons contemplating any infraction of the
election laws that the doors of the peni-
tentiaries OF California are constructed
ON generous plan, and will admit an
average individual without any friction.

you will run counter of much travail

THE Evening Express is approving
itself a most eccentric organ. Yester-
day it announced that the Demo
cratic canvass in this city was
to be run on the idea of selling
out all the rest of the ticket for Pond
and Kurtz, and that large sack had
arrived from a San Francisco bank to
assist in carrying out this plan. OF
course every man OF sense who read
this article knows that it is the veriest
"rot." In the first place, DR.. Kurtz, as
everybody knows who knows anything
about him, would not for an instant be
q party to such base programme. The
doctor is the soul of honor. He is for
the Democratic ticket from top to bot
tom, and would disdain to accept any
advantages that were not shared by his
associates on the ticket. He neither ex-
poets sack from bank in San Fran
cisco nor Los Angeles. The doctors

THERE is certain merit in frankness
which has been recognized in all ages OF
the world and in all races. 1t is allied
to bravery, and it might fairly be called
twin brother of valor. We are told
that a frank confession is good for the
soul, but we admit that it is possible to
please us too much. Thus, the Hon.
John James Ingalls,, in the following
paragraphs, succeeds in sating our ap-
petite for this kind of entertainment.
He says:
The publication OF politics is an
iridescent dream.
The decalogue and golden rule have
no place in political campaign. The
object is success. This modern cant
about the corruption of politics is fatig-
uing in the extreme. 1t proceeds from
the tea-custard and syllabub dilettante-
ism, the frivolous and desultory senti-
mentalism OF epicenes.
In war it is lawful to deceive the ad-
versary, to hire Hessians, to purchase
mercenaries, to mutilate, to destroy.
The commander who lost battle
through the activity OF his moral nature
would be The derision and jest OF history.
Patronage will allure the ambitious,
force will coerce the timid, demagogism
will gull the credulous, fraud will rob
the weak, money will buy the mer-
cenary.
By somewhat extending the charming
methods OF ingalls,, about everything
detestable in the annals OF history might
be gloried in or at least palliated. Ad-
mirers OF Ingalls, may think that he is
original, but he is simply following in
the footsteps of Machiaveli, who wrote
a book called the Prince" which
subtly and automatically developed the
gross and degrading ideas with which
Ingalls, is not ashamed to identity him
self in the nineteenth century and in a
republic. The avowal of such senti-
ments simply shows that party which
reaches out after absolutism. and which
rejects the sober safeguards OF constitu-
tional government, demoralizes its mem
bers. We are cory to say that Mr.. In
gals is himself sorry instance in point.

This cent feature of Savings Deposits has
been successfully operat' in many of the Eu-
ropean and several of the prosperous and pro-
gressive American Savings Banks: notably the
Citizens Savings Bank in Detroit.
Believing that it is the province Of Savings
Bank to receive and encourage the making of
small deposits by both children and grown
people as well as to receive the larger accounts
of the more well to do, we have decid. to
adopt this 5 Cent Stamp system as the simplest
and most effective way of obtaining the end
desired
We are pleased to announce to the public that
in short time we will publish in the daily
papers a complete list of our agents of whom
these Cent Stamps and blank books can be OBJ

a low scale of printers' wages prevails TO 50 per

z. There is no special liability of injury to

quent upon typesetting by hand,
:, The machine is easily kept in working

than an ordinary sewing machine

in the ordinary way. The sFdistribution'' being

quired to ''fll the cases" as in hand word.
II. The price of the ThOrne machine is $1,000,
which covers all appurtenances ready for con-
nection with the steam or other power by which
they are to be operated.
u. Wherever used they displace all frames
and cases for body letter, except possibly one
double case for the type used in correcting
proofs. One machine occupies about the same
floor space as competitors frame. In a room
filled with machines twice as mnch type can be
set as in the same room filed with frames and
cases.
ID. Anybody who has intelligence enough for
an ordinary typewriter can easily learn to op-
crate the Thorne; yet 1t is doubtless true that
practical compositors, by their familiarity with
the use of type, the rules of the craft and vari-
GUS little dexterities which are well understood
among printers, become expert in the use of the
machine more quickly than the ordinary mortal.
Now, in conclusion, permit me to say that
commencing with to-day, the Fort Worth Even
ing Mail win be set up by a Thorne typesetting
machine, being the first paper in this hemis-
phere, southwest of Chicago, to adopt this la
bor-saving device. Gentlemen, thank you for
your attention.
Leaving the banquet hall, the editors
were escorted to electric cars, waiting

building, where they viewed the elegant
painting of the battle of Missionary
Ridge. The scenes presented on the
canvas were familiar to many an old
veteran, and tear would rise to the eye
of those who had barred his breast to the
battles front on that memorable field,
as he saw picture full of glory and
sorrow.
From the cyclorsma the party were
taken to the building on the grounds
where the Thorne type setting
machine was at work, and as they
viewed the wonderful operation of this
marvellous machine doing the work of
seven printers, and doing it with such
exaotness, many were the EXPLANATIONS

James b. Beck, United States Senator
from Kentucky.
James B. Beck, for twenty-five vearl
a representative. and senator from the
state of Kentucky, died in Washington
at 4 O'Clock Saturday afternoon. The
immediate cause of his death was fatty
degeneration of the heart, from which
malady he has been suffering for the
past five years. Funeral services were
held in Washington on Tuesday, and the
remains were inferred in Lexington.
Senator Beck is Scotchman, born in
Dumfriesshire, On February 10, 1922.
He came to this country early in life,
after having received an academic edu-
cation in Scotland. Pursuing his inten-
ton of becoming a lawyer, he entered
Pennsylvania university, Lexington
KY. from whence he was graduated in
law in March, 1916. He began practice
in the same city and continued steadily
in professional work without taking any
office until elected representative in
the Fortieth congress.
Having served with distinction four
terms in the house OF representatives at
Washington, he was, in 1876, elected to
the United States senate to serve until
March, 1888. He was reelected in 1888
and again in 1885,

ALBANY, N. Y, May 1O.-The defal-

amounting to nearly $50, 900, has been
traced to George H. Whitney, Individual

prominent Albany firm. An effort will
be made among Whitney's friends to
settle the affair. He had been in the
bank for years, and occupied high So
