into a corner.
Philo Thayer talked with Goff, Fair

My DEAR sIR-Now that the Democratic

stand the Hon. Charles ii. Page, who has
served his party faithfully and well, has
declined not only by public letter but pri'
vately TO again allow his name to come be-
fore the Convention.
The friends of the Hon. Hugh j. Carroll are
convinced that he would make an excellent
candidate and Representative from our dis
trict. ana we wish to bring his name before
the Convention for that honor. We are con
vnced that he would poll IA large vote and
receive the entire support OF the Democratic
party. We ask your earnest co operation
and support in his behalf and trust that he
Will receive, as he deserves, the unanimous
nomination In the Convention. Very re-
spectfully, THOMAS w. ROBINSON.

SUNK IN BOSTON BAY.
Steamer Whitney Run
Down by the Ottoman.
WATtRTOWN DESTROYED.
Fire Breaks Out on Her Trip From
Boston to Lynn.

BosToN, Sept. 99,-Sunk in mid-chan-
pest steamer of the Metropolitan line, the
Henry NJ. Whitney.
She swung free from her dock at 6:l0
last night, and steamed down the harbor,
bound for New York Five minutes later
the big Warren liner Ottoman crashed
Into her starboard bow. The Ottoman had
the weight and the speed, and the whitney
went down almost Immediately. Her
stern and portion Of her port side re-
NAMED above water. That explains why
40 life was lost.
For some unaccountable reason, the
Ottoman disregarded the Whitney's re.
peated signals to pass on the port side. IL
was this that brought the ships together.
The Aggressor In the Collision
was under moderate steam, and the
Whitney had reversed her engines before
the shock came. But for that the Otto
man would have cut the smaller boat in
two and large loss of life would have been
inevitable 1t is story of grave mis-
understanding or unaccountable negli-
gence
The Ottoman, just freed from quaran-
tine, met the Whitney in midchannel just
off Birds island fats.
Captain Hallett of the Whitney gave the
drst signal, blowing his whistle twice.
That meant that the ships would keep to
port.
The Ottoman replied with one whistle
Instead of two, and showed her red light.
That meant that she was not complying
with Captain Hallett's signal.
He blew twice repeatedly, and reversed
his engines in view of possible collision.
Then, he says, the Ottoman displayed "a
green light That was all right, and,
though the Warren liner was bearing
lowing directly upon them, the Whitney's
men expected her To swing OF according
10 the signals.
As they were almost in the shadow Of
her great hull they saw her red light and
realized that she was going To stlrboard.
The Whitney was backing but il WAS
too late. The Ottoman was upoE them.
Then Came the Awful Crash
of solid wood and iron torn away, as the
Ottoman's bow cut into the smaller ship,
ploughing n great hole in her bow below
the water line.
vAll was confusion. The Ottoman was
was clear In moment, and lay by, with
big hole in her bow and one of the
Whitney's ribs broken off in her side,
where il had been driven home through
ner oak. The Whitney, thrown on her port
side by the shock, rolled back and filled
rapidly. In five minutes her bow was on
bottom and the propeller was thrust clear
and high above the water
Her crew scrambled quickly to the stern,
holding fast by ropes and rigging, as the
hoor beneath them grew more and more
inclined. All were safe, but there was no
more than time enough for the engineers
and firemen, whose first knowledge Of the
danger was the grinding crash caused by
the Ottoman's prov as it tore road into
their home

THE OTHER SIDE Of It.
Chief Perry Backed Up by
the Police Committee.
CALLS HEWES A MEDDLER.
May Soon Be Called Upon to Deal
Harshly With Him.

Chic OF Police Perry, in conversation
with a representative of the TRIBUNE
relative to the duties OF the patrol driver,
said that he was duly authorized by the
Committee on Police OF the Board OF
Aldermen to stable his horse there at the
expense Of the city, as II is used for de-
partment work. Before the police stable
was built II was necessary to hire teams
quite frequently and some years 1t cost
$500 TO pay for teams used in department.
work.
Alderman O'Reilly, who was appointed
on the Committee on Police by Mayor
Carroll, said the above statement was cor
rect as he, in conjunction with Alderman
Winters, gave Chief Perry permission to
stable his horse there at the beginning of
the year and no order had been given re-
voking such permission.
Chief Perry further stated that Mr..
Hughes, the patrol driver, for some reason
or other unknown to him, was constantly
trying to create disturbance around the
station by interfering and arguing with
the men of the department.
He was obliged some time ago to forbid
him to spend his spare time in the guard
room as he was continually interfering
with the men. lie tolerated a good deal
OF this from Hewes because he knew he
had family depending on him and he
did not like to discharge him. IL such
things were persisted in, however, he
would be obliged to apply some effective
remedy. He did not blame Hewes, he
said, to try and have his compensation
increased, but he objected to any mis-
representation of facts in order to create
sympathy.

DISTRICT COURT.
A. Ambitious Youth Steals u Harness
Pony and Wagon-Other Gases.

| A. Ambitious Youth Steals Harness,
| Pony and Wagon-Other Gases.
This morning in the District Court
Judge Shove had several cases to dispose
of. A glance at the sheet on which the
cases are recorded showed that Michael
f. Horan of Central Falls had been cap
tured by Officers Lee and Mcconnell. He
was fugitive from the State workhouse
and was returned to finish his sentence,
which will expire October 2Sth.
George Deli was arrested by Officers
Hand and McDuff. He pleaded guilty to a
charge OF common drunkenness and got
six months.
Charles Gilbert was led up before the
court sobbing. He is only 13 years Of
age and was charged with the larceny Of
light harness valued at go, the property
of Timothy Butler. He pleaded guilty
and was sentenced to the Reform School
during minority or thirty days In the
Providence county Jail.
A short story OF Charles history for the
past few weeks is as follows: He was ar
rested at the instance OF Lawyer Mathew
son about two weeks ago for stealing a
horse, the property of s. r. Baker, but
was let go, his folks paying the costs.
Yesterday he wanted another ride and
concluded to take another horse. He be-
gan by going into Timothy Buffers barn
and throwing harness out of the window.
He went out and took it half way to Prov
idence and hid it. Then he went to the
Cove city and stole pony.
The pony belongs to boy named
Woodward who rides to school every
morning. Charles brought the pony out
to where the harness was, put the harness
on and borrowed wagon from Mr..
Bagley who runs blacksmith h shop at the
corner of Main street and Lonsdale
avenue.
In company with boy named George
Perry, he rode around until IL 80 when he
broke into Mrs. Cushman's barn on Pleas
ant View and put the horse up. He was
arrested by Officer Sherman of Central
Falls and turned over to the local police.
The Perry boy was allowed to go, as IL
is his first offence.
