SULLIVAN ROASTED BY THE COURT.
"A More Cruel Act the Judge Had
Never Known,
Than the Prisoners Robbery of the
Woman Who Intrusted Her
Money to Him.

Michael ]. Sullivan was yesterday SEN
fenced by Judge Catlin to ten years i'm
prisonment in the State Prison at Fol-
som for embezzling $l,S00 from Mrs.
Ella @. Turner.
When the time for sentence arrived
Judge Catlin asked Sullivan to stand up
and state if he had any reason to offer
why he should not receive sentence.
Sullivan's attorney, George G. Davis,
said he desired to make motion for ar
rest of judgment. He first pointed out
what, in his opinion, was defect in the
information against his client.
The information, the attorney stated
did not specify the true facts which were
to have been proved at the trial. 1t was
alleged that the money Sullivan en-
bezzled was given him in trust, but the
document did not show what kind of a
trust it was.
Judge Catiin said il was only necessary
to prove the facts of the charge in the in
formation, and not the details, and he
denied the motion.
Mr.. Davis then moved for new trial
on the ground that the jury received evil
dence other than was introduced in court;
that the jury was guilty of misconduct:
that the court erred in It's rulings during
the trial, and that the verdict was con.
trary to the evidence.
This motion was also denied. In sem
fencing Sullivan, Judge Catlin told him
he had fair trial, which met with the
courts approval.
i cannot see," said the Judge, show
the jury could have rendered any other
verdict than it did. Mrs. Turner was an
entire stranger in this State, and after
you had obtained her money you left the
| State. In all my experience 1 cannot call
| to mind more cruel case. While she
was waiting In the morning for you to ac-
company her to break fast you took the
| first train out of the city. with her money
In your possession. 1t was an atrocious
way to treat lady. L cannot find a sim
gle circumstance in extenuation for your
odense, and intend to give you the full
limit OF the law"
The Judge then sentenced Sullivan to

A Wife-Murderer Pays the Pen
atty of His Crime.
SIX BULLETS NEAR HIS HEART,
Enoch Davis, the Provo wife-Murderer,
Receives SIX Bullets Near the Heart
and Dies Instantly,

SALT LAKE, Sept. lathe verdict
of the jury in the case of Enoch Davis,
the Provo wife murderer, was put into
effect today. Davis was publicly shot
to death in Dry Hollow, six miles
north of Lehi Junction. His execu-
TONERS, six in number, who are I'M
known to the public, moved to the Sc
cluded spot by circuitous route before
daylight to avoid the crowd. The
prisoner. strongly guarded by United
States marshals, arrived about IL
o'clock. Attorney Warner, who de-
Tended him. said: "Davis, all the boys
want is that you die game" Warner
then informed Davis that his time on
earth was short; that if he had any,
thing to say the reporters would write
it down.
"Tell the reporters for me-" said
Davis, "that L nave nothing more to
give them. could only tell them w hat
/ have said before. / have no addi-
tional statement to make. have made
up my mind to die game" His two
sons desired a conversation with him,
and them he said, "Boys | am told you
want to see me die game, and that is
what am going to do" The balance
of the conversation between the father
and sons was inaudible.
Marshal Brigham then read the
death warrant. Davis only response
was, II shall die like man, for / am a
man among men," Davis was then,
at his own request, given chicken
sandwich and drink of whisky.
Davis requested the marshal not to
bliDdfold him, saying he wanted t.
look at the tent from which those cow
ards were going to shoot him down like
dog.
A piece of paper, Axe inches, was
pinned over his heart by DIR. Wicher.
In the center of the paper was blue
circle, an inch and half In diameter.
Davis then grew excited and it was
necessary to blindfold him. Five sec
onds later Marshal Brigham gave the
command, "Firew which was accom-.
panied by report like the discharge
Of single gun. Six bullets had pierced
the region of his heart and death
was almost instantaneous. The re-
mains were taken beck to the peniten

SAILED IN THE WRONG PATH.

Charges Against the Captain of the
Lucania by New York Officers.
LIVERPOOL, Sept. 16. The mana
gers of the Cunard Steamship Com
pany say the statement made by Off
GERS OF the American steamer New
York that the Cunard steamer Lucania
bound east was seen by the New York
so miles north of her proper course is
"absurdly incorrect" The New York
beat the record from Southampton by
/ hour "a minutes last Friday. On the
same day the Lucania from New York
broke the eastward record by hours
8 minutes. The New York's log
showed that she sighted the Lucania
so miles north of the eastward route,
and in the line followed by the west
bound steamers.
The routes are agreed upon by the
various companies, and the captains
are expected to adhere strictly to the
agreement.

A GREAT STRIKE THREATENED.
Clothing Trade Workers of New Eng

Clothing Trade Workers of New Eng
land Ready to Quit Work.
BOSTON, Sept. 15.-There is every in
there will be inaugurated one of the
biggest strikes in the history of New
England. Various branches of the
trades held meetings today and en-
dorsed the recommendations of the
clothing trades council that the sweat
ing system be abolished and a weekly
wage system be established. The mat
ter will be brought before mass meet
ing of the united craft tomorrow, and
if the recommendations are adopted by
a two-tnirds majority, then series
of conferences with the manufacturers
and contractors will be held as soon as
possible. If the employers agree TO
the demands, the threatened strike will
be averted, but if they refuse a strike
will be ordered at once.
The operatives claim that they are
in better shape for struggle than
their employers. as the latter have
been waiting the result of the tariff
bill and consequently are behind with
their work. They also asserted that
they have everything to gain and
nothing to lose, as they are ground
down at present beyond endurance. A
feature the men are expecting will aid
them is that owing to the present
strike ir New York the manufacturers
there have been sending their work to
be made up here. The entire trade
appears encouraged over the prospects,
and at the meeting today strike
would have been ordered had it been
nossible,

Steamer Italia Barely Escapes
Disaster in Mid-Ocean.
AT THE MERCY OF THE WATERS
Nothing Short of Miracle Made the Yes
sci Stand the Wear and Tear of
the Battle With the Waves.

NEW YORK, Sept. 16.-Away out on
old ocean, with land on either side
1900 miles away, and on q vessel which
they believed to be sinking, was the
position in which the passengers of the
steamer Italia found themselves on
September s. The Italia did not sink,
but came safely into port today with
as scared crew and passengers as were
ever found on shlpboard.
That something fatal did not occur
seems a marvel, for nothing short of
miracle made the Italia stand the wear
and tear of the battle with the waves
When she reached port today she pre-
sented only faint resemblance of the
craft that left here two months ago for
the Mediterranean. Most of the life
boats were missing and such as were
not were unfit for use. They were
STAYED In and battered In, while the
interior of the iron-hulled vessel, at
least as far as the passengers quarters
was concerned, was almost total
wreck.
The damage was due to one wave.
The Italia was not the only craft that
had a rough passage. The Hindoo,
from Hull, luckily without passengers,
had similar though not such a disas-
trous experience. She, too, was badly
damaged.
Six of the officers and crew of the
Italia were injured. The second officer,
Chewan, was washed of the starboard
ladder and thrown against ventila-
tor, sustaining serious bruises. Captain
Craigg and Roatswain Mcfarland were
thrown into the lee scuppers and when
the steamer rolled were landed against
the smoking room. The captains leg
was injured and the boatswain received
severe internal injuries. The third en-
gineer was severely injured about the
back and left leg.
Lost Her Steering Gear.
On September the storm increased
in fury and at o'clock Captain Craigg
ordered the vessel headed toward sea.
For three hours the passe myers were
huddled together in the cabin waiting
for what they supposed to be their
last moment. The steamer rolled
from side to side as if she
were going to keel over, while
the voices of nearly all of the crew
could be heard over the storm repeat
ing orders from the bridge.
The steering gear had. parted, leav-
ing the steamer at the mercy OF the
sea. An attempt was made to ship
and man hand steering gear, but be-
fore it could be done big wave board
ed the steamship over the port bow
and rolled along the deck, carrying
everything before 1t. The life
boats were smashed and car
ried away. The smoking room
and hospital doors were burst
in and the steam pipes on deck broken
and bent. Chairs screwed to the floor
were torn up, the cabin flooded and
considerable other damage done. The
crew, who had been putting the
hand-steering gear in place, completed
their work and the ship was once more
headed for port. The following day
the storm abated.
