Women Are Taking Great Interest and
VIII Poll a Heavy Vote.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-Letters re-
ceived from Colorado indicate an inter
esting feature of the campaign I'M the
part the women are taking in it. They
will have their first vote in q general
state election in November next, and it
10 represented that they are evincing an
interest In politics which had not been
supposed probable before The fright of
suffrage was conferred. All of the three
parties, the Republican, Democratic and
Peoples have tickets i'm the field, and
there are female candidates ON each of
them. Furthermore, the ladies, besides
cooperating with the men on the state,
county, ward and precinct committees,
have independent clubs and other y
Party Organizations of Their Own,
ut which they discuss grave political
questions, canvas party prospects and
do all they can to instill into the minds
OF the members Of their sex the neces-
sity of q full party vote and of creating
an ante-election enthusiasm which will
insure this resalt. They also hold pub
lie meetings, which, though conducted,
SO far as machinery is concerned, by
the women, are addressed by speakers
OF both sexes. Meetings of this charac-
ter have been held in the principal halls,
and theatres in Denver and other cities
and the audiences were composed largely
of women.
As Interested as the Men.
All the accounts represent that the
women are taking quite as much inter-
est in the campaign as the men, and
the indications are believed TO be. that
the female vote of the state win be
almost equal to the female population.
This state of affairs il due largely to
the bitter feeling which exists between
the Republican and Populist party. The
Republicans predominant I'm the cities,
while the Populists have their greatest
strength In the mining districts. As
there are proportionately more women
I'm the cities than i'm the mining camps,
the Republicans expect to gain an adj
vantage from the female vote.

Effort to Break the VIII of Ernest G..
Wason Unsuccessful.

By Tac Associated Press.
BOSTON, Jan. 17.-Robert G.. Ingersol
who Is trying to break the will of Ernest
q. Wason, made his argument in the pro-
bate court before Judge McKim this
morning.
A big crowd filled the court room. Coli
onel Ingersol said that young Wason
drank himself to death, and on those ad-
mitted facts argued that mans intellect
must be deranged. He repeated
the evidence OF several physi-
clans stating young Wason was not
capable of making will months before
his death. He repudiated the statements
OF DIR. Phillips, young Wason's physician
who testified that young Wason had been
a dipsomaniac for five years, but said that
drinking to Excess did not extend to de-
rangement OF the mental capacity.
Counsel for the will argued that there
was not sufficient evidence that Wason
was of unsound mind a month before his
death when he made his will. 1T was ad-
mitted that his mental power was as
strong at his death as at any other time.
The will was sustained, the decision
being that young Wason was of sound
mind.

THE AMsTERDAM's SAD STORY.
Her Chief Officer and Six Seamen Went
to Rescue OF Disabled Vessel and
Were Lost-The Schooner Sinking
When Last Seen.
BIZ IN, Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE steamship
Amsterdam, Capt. Stenger from Rotter-
dam, Jan. and Boulogne, arrived at the
Bar at 7:45a. m. She had a continuation of
heavy gales with tremendous seas and a
very low barometer.
On Jan. IA, in latitude 1921, longitude

be the Mag lie Il. Wells, OF Gloucester,
Mass, showing her union down and at
half mast.
The sea was washing over her. She had
a crew of about IA men. The crew sig
nailed the Amsterdam that the vessel was
in a sinking condition.
Therfirst officer and six OF the Amster-
dams crew offered to man a boat and GO
to their rescue. Everything went all right
until in the vicinity of the wreck q sud-
den squall capsized the boat.
Brave Rescuers Drowned.
Three OF the crew disappeared immedi-
ately, the remaining four succeeded in
grasping the capsiZed boat, but three
were so exhausted with the cold that they
could not take hold of the life saving APP
paratus and were drowned.
The remaining sailor was rescued. The
Amsterdam kept in the vicinity OF the
wreck until o'clock, when in a heavy
snow squall she was lost sight of and
two hours search failed to recover any
trace of her.
The following are the names OF the boats
crew who were lost: Chief Officer j.
Myer; second boatswain, Requart; carpen-
ter, A. j. Oudyn; steerage steward, A.
Boss; quartermaster, l.. q. Echhorn and
seaman A. Won Veleet. Seaman A. Von-
derwilt, who was an expert swimmer, was

But None of Them Fatally and the
Wreck Is Not serious..It Happened
i'm the Darkness and Imagination Did
the Rest.


CHESTER, SC, Jan.17--The limited train,
No. 30, from New York to Florida on the
Richmond & Danville, II. r., was run into
by Georgia, Carolina & Northern train
here at :OS O'Clock this morning. Twenty
five persons were either killed or injured.
The sleeper was struck in the
centre and crushed. Not a person
escaped unhurt. They were nearly all full
of passengers, and few escaped injury.
The passengers on the sleeper comprised
chiefly prominent people OF Washington
and New York. Those in the day coach were
persons who were making a short trip.
All had retired before midnight, and
when the crash came few except the train
men were awake.
Those in the sleepers bore the brunt of
the disaster.
The wounded were finally got out and
placed on hastily improvised cots. A
physician was on board and was able to
assist. The excitement and confusion
were so great that no names have yet been
secured.

occurred, is As miles from Charlotte.

HANGED TO-DAY.
Murderer Hcist Pays the Penalty for
His Awful Crime.
By me Associated Press.

By The Associated Press.
GETTYSBURG, Pa, Jan. 17.-Murderer
Heist was hanged here at II IA a. m.
The crime for which Henry Heist paid
the death penalty was the murder of
Emanuel Mown on Feb. 1, 1893. Both men
were employed as wood-choppers and
lived together in cabin about a mile
from the spot upon which once stood,
Thad Stevens old Maria Furnace.
On the night of the murder they went
together to visit young woman OF whom
both wcreienamored. They left the house
together at midnight, and the next day
Heist and the woman went on trip to an
adjoining town. Mown's absence excited
suspicion and a search was instituted
which resulted in the finding of his mutt
lated body, on March II.
Heist fed when the body was found
and kept himself in hiding until March
IS, at which time he surrendered to the
authorities, at the same time protesting
that he was innocent and demanding pro-
lection. At the trial of the following Au-
gust he was convicted of murder in the
first degree, and sentenced to be hanged
on December IA. II took the jury but
IL minutes to arrive at verdict.
Governor Pattison granted a respite until
today in order to give the condemned
man chance to appeal to the board of
pardons, which promptly rejected his ap-
peal.
He is OF the worst and lowest order Of
intelligence and evinced no feeling of re-
gret for his crime.
