end of Crosse Isle, where she struck
rock Sunday morning about $50
O'Clock, and sank. The Cleveland was
bound up and had about 176 passen-
gers aboard and 500 tons of freight
Just after getting in the river a heavy
fog came up and after picking his way
through the narrow channels for about
five miles, Capt. McLachlan, who was
on the bridge himself, decided to get
out of the channel and anchor. He
took the boat in well to the Canadian
shore and dropped the anchors. This
was at $3.50, and after lying at anchor
for an hour the fog lifted enough to en-
able the captain to see the channel,
and he decided to come on up the
river. He gave the signal to back and
almost Immediately there was graf
ing sound and the boat stopped. At
first II was not thought the boat had
hit anything, but as soon as an effort
was made to move her it was seen
that she had hit and was fast. BY
this time the water had commenced
to come up through the dining-room
floor and word was at once sent TO the
captain that the boat was sinking.
Capt. McLachlan, deciding TO keep
her where she was, ordered the an
.chors out again and the big side
wheeler slowly settled to the bottom
in II feet Of water. Up to this time
the passengers, except those who were
awake, knew nothing of trouble
the boat was in, and it was very sur
prised crowd that piled out of the
stateroOms in hurTy-up costumes when
they were called by the crew of the
boat There was no excitement what
ever. The passengers coolly stood on
the deck and watched the big boat
settle to the ~ottom.
Passengers Landed Safely.
Ward was at once sent to Amherst
burg and the little steamer Newsboy,
Capt. George King, came up and got
alongside the Cleveland. The News
boy took the passengers off and
brought them to Detroit, reaching here
about 10 o'clock. The wrecker Sag
NAV, with two steam pumps, was sent
down and reached the stranded boat
about noon. When the Saginaw
reached her the Cleveland was lying
on the bottom, with a decided list to
port and her stern compartments full
of water The dining-room and galley
were filled so that everything was
floating, but outside of these two COM
partments no water was taken in I'M
til later, when the bulkhead doors be-
tween the galley and engine room
were opened with the aim of giving
the wreckers a better chance to free
lne boat of water.

Sunday.

Jackson, Mich, Oct. 22-Jackson
prison ohicials have learned that Con
Wet Wiseman first learned of the in
vestigation being conducted against
him through letter from his wife,
who inclosed several newspaper clip
pings. He answered the letter on Oct.
IA, and denied that he had had any
thing to do with the death of Mrs.
Christopher Huss, saying that he was
in Birmingham on the day she disap-
peared In this letter he asked her
to bring his knife out TO him, as the
one he was using was too small. The
officials attach considerable impor-
tance to this. 1t seems that Nj s..
Wiseman did not comply with her
husbands request, but turned the let
ter and knife over to Prosecutor Rock
well of Pontiac.
Birmingham, Mich, Oct. 22.-Curi-
osity seekers in throngs visited
the Clawson farm at Royal Oak Sun
day, viewing the spot where the re-
mains of Mrs. Christopher Huss were
found. Herman Bal.er, a farmer in
the vicinity, recalls that while hunt
ing woodchucks, in the summer of
1900, he dug a hole beside the log
where the body was found. This cor
roborates the statement attributed to
Wiseman, that he didn't have to dig
the grave. Prosecuting Attorney
Rockwell and a Pontiac deputy sheriff
went yesterday TO have an interview
with Ida Williams of MaTysville, who
married Frank Bellew. She was sit.
ting on Wiseman's doorstep when he
and Mrs Huss started for the woods
together. She now lives near ST.
Clair.
