Watch Meetings.

Lansing, Mich, Dec. 5.-Adjt. Gen.
Case has issued circular calling at
tention of the National Guard to the
fact that the American Red Cross is ar
ranging to hold in every village and
city of the United States on the last
night Of this year, watch meetings to
see the old century out and the new
century in. He says 1t is eminently
proper that the National Guard should
take the initiative in arranging for
such meetings in Michigan. It is to
place the society in America on solid
financial basis that this movement Is
undertaken. 1t Is not expected that
the movement shall be confined to the
National Guard, however, as its pur.
pose Is a universal benefaction. The
promoters and contributors should sx.
tend to all the people, and to this end
the National Guard should ask the as.
sistance Of civic, patriotic and musical
societies.

WRECKED YOSEMITE
The Crew Felt as if Their Last
MOI Q t Had Come.
ABANDONMENT ONLY COURSE

Everything Possible Done Before the
Sinking Cruiser was Left to Her
Fate-Much Damage Done at the
Isle of Guam.
Manila, Dec. 6.-Two members of
the crew of the United States auxil'
larry cruiser Yosemite, which recently
foundered during typhoon off the isl
and of Guam, have arrived at Cavite
on board the United States transport
Alava, which left Guam Nov. 26 with
rs marines who had been transferred
to Cavite from Guam. The names of
the two men of the wrecked vessel are
John Barry, carpenter, who was
about to be relieved at the time of
the disaster and Henry Cooligan, a
hospital apprentice, who came on
board the Aalava to attend some of the
sick marines. Barry had much to do
with rigging up of steering gear and
in other attempts to save the Yosem-
tie. A boom so feet long and a foot
thick which was rugged over her stern
snapped off when attempts were made
to steer with it. By the time a stouter
arrangement was effected, what was
left of the propeller was almost out of
the water and the steamer was con-
stantly settling lower by the head. No
progress was possible and all on board
thought their last moments had come.
The discipline on board was good.
After the Yosemite had drifted
shoreward from her anchorage she
pounded on a reef The wind shifted
with extreme suddenness and terrific
fury and carried the vessel out through
such a narrow outlet in the harbor
that no one understood how she got
through. 1t was very dark and thick.
The spray was binding and the wind
threatened to sweep the men into the
water at any moment.
When asked If there was any criti-
cism among, the men of the officers ac-
ton in abandoning the ship, the two
men replied that practically every
man conceded all had been done that
was practicable and abandonment of
the vessel was the only course left.
The official reports asserted that the
sea valves were opened finally to ex.
pedite the sinking. Barry and Cooli-
gan said they knew nothing as to that
point; but the attempts of the United
States collier Justin to tow the cruiser
were useless and the Yosemite would
inevitably have sunk. The two men
said they believed there was some DIFF
flculty with the pumps in getting wa
ter out of the forward compartment
but the hole in the bottom was so big
that the cruiser must have sunk no
matter what had been done. Several
marines who were at Agana, Guam,
during the typhoon said that three
quarters of the town was under water
and that all the dwellings were de-
stroyed excepting those having tiled
roofs. The corrugated iron roofs sur
mounting the government buildings
and residences were for the most part
lifted bodily.
The marines waded about and as.
sisted women and children to places of
refuge. The natives, after their losses,
made but feeble efforts to repair the
damage.
In the judgment of naval officers
the abandonment of the Yosemite was
the only course feasible, the feeling
being that the Justin might have stood
by longer but that the result would
have been the same,

DUG OUT OF JAIL.
Four Prisoners Escaped From Ann Ar.
Dor Jail.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Dec. 5.-For the
second time within six months prison.
ers have dug out of Washtenaw county
jail. July last, j. e. Wilver (white)
and Algey Rogers (colored) hid in the
corridor between the cage and outer
wall, and after the sheriff had retired,
dug their way out with a pair of
shears.
This afternoon the sheriff's Jail force
were busy in convicting Alfred Martin,
charged with breaking into an Ann Ar
Dor railroad car and stealing shoes.
Among the prisoners at the Jail who
were allowed the freedom of the CORR
dor were the following awaiting trans
portation Charles Perine (white), sen,
fenced to seven years at Ionia on a
cumulative sentence for stealing; Dan
Tel Fisher (white), sentenced to one
year and ten months at Ionia for sod
omy; and William Stewart (colored) i,
sentenced to one year for larceny. All
have prison records.
According to the story of one of the
men in jail who did not take advant-
age of the opportunity, Perine and
Stewart did the work. A couple of gas
pipes were the only tools used. In an
hOui anu nail IHcy udu uOle DlS
enough for a man to crawl through
But just before they had completed
their job, at six o'clock, they heard the
Jail door being unlocked. The officers
had brought back Alfred Martin, who
had just received five-year sentence.
They simply let him into the corridor
and locked the door again, and the
Jail breakers went to work again
Martin changed clothes with another
prisoner and all four of the above
mentioned crawled through the hole
and ran. Their escape was noticed by
passerby and the alarm was given.
Deputy Bert Gillen was the only Off
Ger at the Jail and he ran out and after
them. He caught sight Of Fisher dodg
ing into an alley about a block from
the Jail and fired at him. Fisher
stopped and gave himself up. The
other three men escaped.
