PERIL ON THE LAKE.

South Haven, Mich. Aug. Leaks
In the hold Of the excursion steamer
City Of Grand Rapids came near send
ing the boat to the bottom of Lake
Michigan Saturday night. AS 1t was. the
1913 passengers had the most exciting
time of their lives. They worked with
the crew to keep the pumps going. and
not till they reached South Haven har-
Dor Sunday morning, after long and
desperate struggle, were they sure that
they would pull through in safety. The
water had been within two inches of
the engines.
The Grand Rapids started from here
Saturday evening at 10 o'clock on an
excursion to Milwaukee. The boat was
chartered by the Battle-Ax Club of this
place for the trip. which was intended
to last till Monday morning. The club
consists Of well-known men here, and
it's special feature Is the serving of
drinks to members, who are unable to
get liquid refreshments elsewhere in
their temperance town. The trip was
the annual excursion and jolly time
was contemplated.
Perhaps four hours had passed, and
the boat was forty miles out in the lake
when a large amount Of water was dis
covered in the hold. Capt. Ingraham
saw that quick action was necessary,
and he ordered the pumps started. But
the engineer was unable to get the ma
chinery at work. He did his best, but
saw little possibility Of success. The
water kept creeping higher and higher.
The boat began to roll sluggishly, and
the situation was very dangerous.
Then the captain ordered the passen-
gers awakened. Life-belts We're quickly
strapped on and the boats and RATS
We're prepared for use. The boat was
slow progress was made in that direc-
ton. Luckily for the passengers and
the boat the engineer succeeded in rig
ging up one of the pumps and it was
started at work just before the water
shut off the supply of steam from the
boilers. After that there was hard work
but no real danger until land was
reached again.
The members of the Battle-Ax Club
were a weary and tired looking crowd
when they disembarked from the boat
shortly after daylight. Most of them
had been seasick from the heavy roll
of the boat and all had been so thor
oughly frightened that they will hesi-
tate long before taking their next an
nual excursion by water. Some of them
| were scarcely able to walk up from the
dock after they had scrambled ashore
over the gangplank

LEAVES FORTY TAILS BARE.
John Miller Works All Night In a
Barn to Get $500 Worth of Horse


Barn to Get 30. go Worth OF Horse
Hair.
Chicago. Aug. 7.-Forty horses be-
longing to w. H. Marchall. liveryman
at 4142 Emerald avenue. were practi-
cally ruined Friday night by COM
mercial intruder. who entered the stalls
after midnight and despoiled each horse
of its tail. The hairs were pulled out by
the roots, and SO many of them were
taken that each animal was left with q
mere stub. Thirty-eight OF the horses
were purchased for the government and
were intended for the use of the United
States cavalrymen in the Philippines.
Two of the animals were coach horses
belonging to Mr.. Marshall, and before
they were despoiled We're valued at
$1,000. Now it Is said by many that
they would not sell for anything ap-
preaching that price If placed on the
market.
The police worked on the case all day
Saturday, and at night arrested John
Miller, Waterman employed by Mar
shall to take care OF the premises at
night, and Frank Rose, who Is em-
ployed as a hostler at McMaster's liv-
cry stable, Root street and Emerald
avenue.
Rose was put through severe cross
Hexamition by Capt. LAWN and Lieut..
Clancy, and admitted he had purchased
thirty-two pounds of hair from Miller
Saturday morning. He claimed he did
not know where Miller got the hair.
When Miller was confronted with
Roses statement he made full state
ment, and said he had pulled out the
animals tails. He claimed he sold the
hair for 80 cents a pound, and that he
disposed of thirty-two pounds to Rose.
When asked why he had done so much
damage to get $3.50 he said that he
needed money and knew Of no other
way to get 1t.
1t is estimated by liverymen that the
marketable prices Of the horses has
been decreased to the extent of $1,000.
Miller has been employed as a watcn-
man for the stables about three months.
He slept in the barn and has no regular
place of abode. According to the police,
Miller started at his work, shortly after
midnight, while the other men em-
ployed about the barns were asleep, He
took until daylight to finish stripping
the animals.

SLAUGHTER EN-!
EXPIRES. Cleveland Is Sarcas-

Remedy for Opposition Of FiIipinos
to Our Proposed Rule
Is Simply TO Kill of a Fex Hundred Thousan nd
or So.

Princeton, n. j., Jan. 5.-Ex-Presi-
dent Cleveland. in reply to the request
OF representative of The Associated
Press for an expression on the question
of expansion and annexation, said:
Il do not care to repeat my views
concerning the prevailing epidemic of
Imperialism and territorial expansion.
Assuming. however, that my ideas
on the subject are antiquated and I'M
suited to these progressive days, II Is
a matter of surprise to me that the re-
fusal of certain natives of our poses
sions to acquiesce in the beneficience of
subjecting them to our control and
management should in the least disturb
our expansionists. This phase of the
| anticipated nor the incidents naturally
growing out of it overlooked.
The remedy is obvious and simple
The misguided Inhabitants Of our an
nexed territory who prefer something
different from the plan for their con-
troll which we propose, or who oppose
our designs in their behalf. should be
slaughtered.
THE killing of natives has been u
feature of expansion ever since eXpan-
sion began and our imperialistic en-
thusiasm should not be checked by the
prospective necessity of destroying a
few Thousand or a few hundred thous-
and Filipinos.
This should only be regarded as one
stage in a transcendentally great
movement, mere incident in its pro-
gress. OF course some unprepared
souls would then be lost before we have
the opportunity of Outstanding them.
but surely those of our clergymen wno
have done 50 much to encourage ex-
pansion could manage that difficulty.
In connection with this subject Mr..
Cleveland said he had seen it stated in
yesterdays newspapers that 1O,OOO,oo0
of cartridges are now being manu-
featured for the United States in Birm-
