Wrecked on Reef Near Socotra Dur.
ing Gale.
Boat Full of Sailors and Passengers
Got Away From the Sinking Ship-The
Vessel Has Not Been Heard From,
and it is Feared All Are Dead. II

LONDON, June 3O.-The missing
steamer Alden has at last been heard
from. She was wrecked June 9 on a
reef near Socotra during terrific gale.
A number of her officers and crew were
swept overheard and downed. Eight
passengers were also drowned. A boat
full of sailors and passengers got away
from the ship successfully on the
morning of June 10 as the vessel was
going to pieces. The gale, however,
was undated and the seas were still
running mountain high. The boat
has not been heard from, and it is
feared all who sought safety in her
persisted.
Socotra is an island in the Indian
ocean, off the east coast of Africa.
A later dispatch says nine passen-
gers. three European and SO native
sailors of the crew were saved, while
% passengers, 90 European and SO ma
tive members OF the crew, and all the
ships officers are missing, and are
supposed to be drowned.

in South Scranton blew up the bust.
ness block of Leon Olchofski, a double
dwelling block owned by him and a
detached house owned by Michael
O'Hara. The business block, two
story building, was torn to pieces.
Twenty other houses had all the win
dows blown out and plaster torn from
the walls. The shock was felt all over
the city.
The cause of the explosion is un-
known, but Olchofski alleges that it
was the work of enemies he made dur
ing political and church disputes in
that section, he being one of the prin-
cipals in trou bles which led to a
split in the Polish Catholic congrega-
ton. Olchofski was seriously injured
in saving his wife, and his recovery is
doubtful Following the explosion the
wrecked buildings took fire, but the
fremen kept the flames from spreading.

COLONIZATION SCHEME
OF Mr. Debs Has Not Been Abaud ed a
Has Been Reported.

OF Mr.. Debs Has Not Been Aband oned as
Has Been Reported.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, June 3O.-The
Debs colonization scheme has not been
abandoned as has been reported. Vic
tor l.. Berger, editor of the Vorwaerts
of this city, who attended the confer
ence of the leaders of the social dem
ocracy at Chicago recently, says the
whole matter has been misunderstood.
He says it is the intention of the
social democracy all over the coun-
try to go on organizing in the
hope that eventually they will get into
power and revolutionize the social sys-
TEN of the United States. Meanwhile,
as fast as they get means, they intend
to send unemployed people from the
cities to q point in the west still to be Sc
lected, where they may have chance to
make livelihood. The colonization
scheme is only side issue with the So
cial democracy, but Mr.. Berger says the
press of the country have made it the
main plan. Mr.. Debs is in full accord
with the plan outlined by Mr.. Berger.
The latter says there are three million
unemployed in the country and he will
consider his party lucky if it can raise
money enough to transport only 10, 900
to the west. There was never any iu-
tention of forming a vast army to in
wade the west in search of homes and
a livelihood.

May BE Solved-The Ripper's Victim Be-
lieved to Be VIM. Guldensuppe, of New
York.
NEW YORK, July IAN identified
ton that seems to promise clearing
up of the Ripper mystery is that the
murdered man, two parts of whose
body were found, was William Gulden-
suppe, an attendant at the Murray
Hill baths, on Forty-second street.
Several persons have SO far identified
the remains as his. A woman, who
once loved this man, hated him. Two
men were Jealous of him, and had
threatened him with revenge.
The positive Identification is made
by the superintendent of the baths and
five attendants who had seen the man
naked day after day for years. and
knew every mark on him. he. was
further identified by DR.. j. S. Cosby.
DIR. Cosby had lanced and treated a
felon on the index finger of Gulden-
suppe's left hand. At the morgue DR..
Cosby instantly identified the cicatrix
of the wound his lance had made. Gull
densuppe had been a sailor.
On his breast was tatooed in India
ink the bust figure of a woman. 1t
covered space as large as mans
hand.
The butcher who cut him up cut this
out. Guldensuppe left the baths last
Friday morning and disappeared. In
all the four years of his employment
there he had never missed days
work. No word has been received
from him. Guldensuppe had been liv-
ing with Mrs. Augusta Mack, a mid
wife. She says she has not seen him
since Friday morning and does not
care where he is.
She found in his possession the card
of another woman. 1t is said they
quarreled.
There are two other men in the case
whose jealousy of Guldensuppe was
common gossip among the Murray-Hill
bath attendants. These men the po-
lice are looking for. Mrs. Mack is I'M
der surveillance. She had begun to
dismantle her fat, telling other ten
ants she was going to Europe. The
police Wednesday morning think they
have Chapter One of the mystery.
There are many more chapters.
The police late Wednesday after
noon released Herman Mack, saying
that there was no evidence connecting
him with the murder of Guldensuppe.

TOPEKA, Kan, June SOL. S. Parks,
state printer elect, announces that the
use of type setting machines will be
abolished in the state printing Office
with the beginning of his administra-

last session of the legislature the
printers made a strong fight to Sc

were unsuccessful, but they did sue

priation bill a rider which provides
that the state printer shallreceive but
ten cents per 1000 ems for machine
work. 1t is claimed that at this rate
the machines can not be operated eX-
cept at a loss and as a result they will
be thrown out and the state will pay
from 80 to % cents per thousand for
