NO JUDGE OF ART.
Former Senator Henderson Makes a
Big Loan on Poor Paintings.

Washington. d. c., Feb 12-John B.
Henderson, at one time a United States
senator from Missouri, who now resides
in this city, occupying a palatial man
sion at the head of Sixteenth street, is
in trouble through his ignorance of
art.
In January of last year, Mr.. Hender-
son loaned a theatrical man 81, 900, tax
ing as security certain oil paintings,
which were represented as the work of
such artists as Gerome, De NeuVon,
Leignac and Miss Salason.
Recently Mr.. Henderson has discover
ed that the pictures, instead of being
worth about 81, 900, as represented, are
unimportant paintings and have only a
nominal value.
He has brought suit for his money,
claiming that Mr.. BelIeman, to whom
he loaned the money, has some pictures
of actual value, and the court is asked
to grant an injunction preventing him
from disposing of them.

torpedo boat Cushing, was washed

sent by the Gushing to Key West to-
morrow.
The Gushing left Key West Friday
morning with stores for the Maine. She
pitched heavily in fearful sea: She
slowed engines at l o'clock in sight of
the coast of Cuba. Immediately after
ward Ensign Breckenridge, who was
stationed forward, was carried off his
life line as he was swept aft. The line
parted, however, and Ensign Brecken-
ridge went overheard.
Seamen Everett and Coppage started
to go to the rescue in the life boat, but
it was swamped in lowering and the
men were thrown into the water.
Ensign breckenridge strength was
fast failing, as he was encumbered with
heavy oilskin boots. The Cushing was
running through the sea, deluged from
stem to stern. AS Breckenridge was go
ing under. the cook, Daniel Atkins,
went overheard to the rescue.
The Gushing finally obeyed her helm
and swung around and naneuvered
near the men in the water. Atkins,
Coppage and Everett were rescued by
lines and Ensign Breckenridge was ia
ken on board in the same manner. At

medical aid was necessary to save the
ensign's life and the Gushing headed for
Havana with her throttIes opened. She

with death The crew meanwhile

ton.
On the arrival in Havana the Names
