TEN OR A DOZEN DROWNED.
A Fcrrybont Overloaded with Ore
Handlers Cnpsixcs in the Riv.
er mt Cleveland,

Cleveland, o., July 16.-Ten or dozen
lives were lost In an accident which oc-
CURED about 1880 o'clock this evening on
the old river bed near the ore docks OF
the Cleveland & Pittsburg Railway Com
pany. The ore handlers had Just quit work
for the day and were waiting their turns to
cross the branch of the river on the flat
bottomed ferryboat which they had pro-
vided for this purpose. a number of the
man had crossed. When the ferry reached
the dock the last time, at least twenty
men crowded upon it. The boat, which Is
about thirty feet long and not more than
four feet wide, would carry safely not more
wide, however, and the hurrying ore hand
lers had no though OF danger. The boat was
PEELED across the stream. When ii was
about half way over, 1t began to sink.
Then, as the men, rushed TO the side. it
turned over. All the occupants were
thrown into the, water, Those who re-
mained on the shore alarmed at the cap
sizing of the little craft. at once threw life
preservers and planks to the unfortunate
men, but most of them sank like lead. a
few. however. managed to swim ashore.
while one or two were, picked, up by tug.
BY midnight ten bodies had been recov-
cred. and 1t Is thought one or two more
victims may be added to the list.

Galveston, Texas. December 2l.--James
pretty Mary Falk, young girl employed
in his mothers family, was before the bar
OF the recorders court this morning on a
charge of murder. The defense announced
that they would waive prellm nary exam
nation and go before the criminal court,
only asking that the bond be made as
light as possible. The boys step-father,
Il. d. Stavinsky. sexton of the new GENE
terry near which he lives, and his grand
father. Mr. Daily, appeared in court with
the prisoner. and the latter testified that
his grandson was IL years old the 9th day
Of this month. He was willing to give
bond OF $1,000 for the boys appearance be-
fore the grand jury when wanted and the
bond was fixed at this sum.
Young Sheppard was not so cool and APP
parentiy Indifferent this morning as here
tofore. For the first time he seemed to be
nervous and to realize something Of the
position in which his rash act has placed
him. When the chief of police talked with
him while his bond was being arranged he
was quite uneasy, and during nearly the
whole time he was in the court room he
locked east down and hardly raised his
eyes at all. When the chief asked him il
he was not sorry he had killed Mary he
began weeping and sobbingly answered
Yes He then repeated that she was
teasing him and rolling him in
The stickers.' a kind Of sand spur that
grows plentfully on the island. 1t was
this which made him 50 angry that he got

place. The boys mother and the dead
