who purchase the Evening Star were
startled Tuesday afternoon at reading
the following:
Berlin, Nov. ia dispatch received
here from Sofia, Bulgaria, says that the
Sultan of Turkey. ABDUL Hsmed. has been
poisoned. No details are givcn.''
The only element OF verisimiltude con-
taiued in this alleged Sofia dispatch. via
Berlin--it might as properly have been
dated Port Jervis, or Cape Town. via
bangkok, charlottesville, or Penn Yam
is conveyed in the sentence. NO details
are given"
OF course no details were given" There
were no details. The most exhaustive
search in Eerlin via Sofia, and Sofia via
Berliu has failed to discover the slightest
suspicion of detail, or the faiDtest
reason or rcmotest pretext for printing
such 4 canard
The United Press. which furnishes news
TO The Times, was not caught by this foreign

the Constitution, from Rome, Ga, says
that Postmaster NJ. II. Pepper and W. A.
Knowles. editor of the Rome Tribune,

Hustler attacked the Tribune. and Knowles
replied over his signature in q singing
card. Byrd sent letter by his friend.
Underwood, to Knowles asking him TO 20
outside the State and renew the CORE

the letter.
Then Underwood sent Knowles a letter
and the editor would not receive that. This
letter was carried by Postma ster Pepper.
The latter says that he did not know
what ii contained. Today Pepper and

ROUGH On LAKE HURON.
Several Steamers Have Terrible Ex
m.rjences In the Heavy Seas


periences In the Heavy Seas.
Port Huron. Mich. Nov. 21.-The steamer
]. B. Kctcbam and consort Montgomery,
lumber-laden. had terrible experience on
Lake Huron Tuesday night. The ketcham
arrived i,ere at noon today in a dlsnantled
condition, having jumped out her masts
rolling in the heavy seas. smashing her
cabin, and losing nearly all of her deck
load.
The Montgomery broke away from the
steamer during the night, and was driven
ashore near Gull Drain, Ont. She will
prove u total wreck.
The crew o ( the Canadian schooner Daunt-
less was taken off by the tug Crosby seven
miles out from Fort Gratiot light. The
schooner is at anchor, but Is being battered
to pieces by the heavy seas.
The Northern liner Northern Wave, which
left Port Huron in company with the
steamer Kearsarge yesterday, was forced
to seek shelter from the furious gale on
Lake Huron last night. In trying TO make
the harbor she went on the rocks on the
beach, and is probably badly damaged, as
she has three feet OF water in her hold.
