Washington, April 29.-Secretary
Gage returned Thursday morning from
New York, where he had a conference
with prominent bankers in regard to
the proposed bond issue for raising a
war fund. In speaking of the confer
ence the secretary said that the princi-
pal purpose of his visit to New York
was to obtain from representative finan-
ciers and capitalists their views on the
proposed bond issue. He had no def
mite proposition to make, and none was
expected from the bankers. The result
OF the conference, however, was emf
nently satisfactory. All seemed dis
posed to do anything and everything
possible to give any needed financial
support TO the government in the pres
ent emergency, although there would
be no financial inducement for capital
lists TO invest in three per cent. bonds,
when time loans were bringing six per
cent and even more. the question of
profit would be put to one side, and
whatever assistance the government
needed would be forthcoming. All ia
vored the popular loan idea, and
thought that the people should be given
an opportunity to invest in the new is

lurch to port and went down.
IN THE VORTEX.

AS the ship sank beneath the sur
face, the vortex Of the waters sucked
down everything on the surface with
in a certain radius. When the suction
ceased, those still above saw about
twenty-five bodies come out of the
water with a rush, as If the sea were
giving up the dead after having swal-
lowed the ship. But the struggle for
life still continued after the ship went
down. Hundreds still floated about
grasping for boats, ropes and wreck
age In frantic endeavor for life.
Even then the crew kept up their bru-
tality by beating off those who at
tempted to climb on board BY this
time the small boats Of the Cromarty-
shire came up and the work of rescue
hcaan. The crew of this ship worked
heroically and saved everyone who had
managed to come up from the wreck,
put many fell away from the boats,
ropes and wreckage, and were drown
cd. Every now and then pieces Of
wrrckage came shooting up from the
cotton, marking the spot where the
great liner has gone down.
But little attempt was made to re-
cover the bodies of any of the ill-fated
passengers or crew, and the battered
Eulk at the bottom Of the ocean will
probably be their tomb.
In the afternoon the steamer Grecian

TRAGEDY ON THE HILL
G. H. WEINKE FATALLY SHOT AT
THE GOTHAM HOUSE

= =
Former Night Clerk MT the Aber-
deem Is Found ON the Porch of
MIS-. Conrad Gotxinn,s Residence
Suffering From Probably Fatal
- Injuries-Weinke Says He Saw
a Man SkulLing About the Yard.
Charles H. Weinke, young man
employed until yesterday as night
clerk at the Aberdeen hotel, was
mysteriously shot shortly after 12
o'clock last night. on the front porch
Of Mrs. Conrad Gotzian's residence, 3s2
Summit avenue The bullet entered
the young mans abdomen on the right
side.
DR.. Stone attended Weinke and upon
a hasty examination. of the wound
stated that he feared it would prove
fatal The wounded man was taken
to st. Joseph's hospital, where his
ante mortem statement Of the shoot
ing was taken by the county attorney,
when DR.. Stone began an operation in
an effort to save his life.
After Weinke was taken to the hos
pital the police found cheap thirty
two caliber revolver lying in corner
of the porch. One chamber was
empty.
The only story of the shooting OBJ
tainable by the police was that said
to have been told by Weinke to those
who first went to his assistance after
hearing the shot.
This was in effect. that, having been
to the theater with a young woman of
his acquaintance, he was on his way
home, when in passing the Gotzian
home he saw a man skulking in the
driveway beside the house. Weinke
knew the members of the household
through having come in contact with
them while employed at the Aberdeen,
where Mrs. Gotzian lived for some
time, and decided to apprise them of
the suspiciously acting person.
Walking UP to the front door with
the intention Of ringing the bell, he
was fired upon by second man,
whom Weinke had not seen, in a dark
ened recess of the porch. His assail-
ant ran around the house, disappear
ing in the alley.
The news of the shooting was not
communicated to the police until near
ly an hour after 1t occurred, but as
soon as informed of the probable muir
der, Capt. Lowell, Lieut.. Hanft and
half dozen detectives were upon the
scene. Little progress was made in
the investigation, however, as nothing
could be learned except the story
Weinke is said to have told when
assisted into the Gotzian residence.
