RIVERS is CONVICTED
SLAYER OF THOMAS GEAGHAN
Must Go TO THE PEN
Shady Story of Loaned Knife Did
Not Avail With the Jury, Which
Agreed on Mansiaughter
in First Degree.
Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
the 'longshoreman who killed Thomas
ID, was tonight found guilty of man
slaughter in the first degree. The jury
was out twenty-eight hours.
The trial was a rather remarkable one.
On the day of the murder Rivers and
some friends were In the saloon when
Geaghan entered. He was sober, and
Rivers was intoxicated. An old quarrel
was at once renewed, and Geaghan went
to a rear room to avoid trouble Rivers
followed, and a moment later the forms
of the two men in a struggle flied the
doorway, and Geaghan fell to the floor
with a knife wound In his heart. Rivers
left at once, but was arrested about all
hour later. He denied all knowledge of
the crime at the inquest, and several or
his companions corroborated him.
At the trial, however, he changed his
position and swore that when he follow
ed Geaghan to the rear room the latter
attacked him with knife, bat that he
caught the appraised hand in time to
force the knife back into Geaghan's own
body. He explained the damaging fact
of the knife used being his by saying
that he had loaned it to Geaghan few
days before, and the latter had not re-
turned 1t.
The case has occupied the courts at
tention all week and went to the jury
Saturday afternoon at las. A verdict was
returned tonight at g. The penalty is
five to twenty years, and sentence will be
pronounced during this week.

Beers NOT ALL DEAD YET
FIGHTING NEAR sTANDER,. ON
COST BRITISH HEAVILY
story of Sacrifices of Boer Women
and Children Is Denied, but
Editor Stead Is Bitter IN
DenunciatiOn.

LONDON, Nov 25-This mornings dis
patches from South Africa show that
the recent fighting southeast of Stander-
ton, as to which Lord kitchener reported
nothing beyond the fact that Command
ant Buys had been captured after at
lacking a patrol Of 100 railroad pioneers,
was really a serious affair. 1t seems
that Groeblar's commando succeeded in
surrounding and capturing a British
force Of 100 Cape railway pioneers. Sub
seqeuently Col. Remington came up with
reinforcements, and after heavy fighting
compelled the Beers to retire and to re-
lease their prisoners. The British losses
included Maj. Fisher, killed, and three
officers wounded. The casualties among
the men have not yet been reported.
With reference to the story that the
British placed Boer women and children
in front during the fighting at Gran Pan,
June 6, when Gen. Dewet's convoy was
captured-a story which has been spread
broadcast as an example of British bar
barity, the Daily Mail sent dispatch of
inquiry to Lord Kitchener, who replied
as follows:
1.-THE statement is absolutely untrue
and devoid of all foundation One child
was killed and one woman and one child
wounded by the Beers
AS the story has been prominent In the
recent anti-Chamberlain campaign in
Germany, the Daily Mail has telegraphed
Lord Kitchener's reply to all the leading
German papers.
William T. Stead, lecturing in London
yesterday, said he thanked God that
Germany and Europe were bold enough
to call baby murder crime. Compared
with Englands conduct he exclaimed
"Herod's slaughter of the innocents was
saintlike. Great Britain ought to be
beaten in this unjust war. In the Amer
lean war we employed redskins, juA as
we have Ioosened Kaffirs against the
Beers, and, thank God, we We're beaten. y

SCIENCE is UPSET
COMMANDER OF THE FULTON AND
HIS MEN COME UP SAFE
AND WELL
NEVER FELT STORM RAGING

NEW YORK, Nov 24.-In the presence
OF big crowd, which despite the storm
assembled to witness the emerging of
tha submarine boat Fulton, that craft
rose from the bottom of Peconic bay,
which is at the eastern end of Long ISL
and, this morning at 1850 o'clock, with
all well and greatly surprised to find
there was a storm raging.
The test of the Fulton's staying powers
was highly satisfactory, not only to the
officers of the company that built her,
but to those who went to the bottom in
the boat. They report that there was
not the slightest discomfort to them dur
ing their more than fifteen hours of sub
merSion beneath the surface.
Capt. Gable, of the Holland company,
who was in command, said that the boat
could have remained down for three
months if there were food enough on
board. Although there was but six feet
of water over the top Of the turret those
on board felt nothing Of the storm.
Through the night there was a light roll
ing motion to the craft but this was
ascribed to the regular motion of the
water, and not to the disturbance which
Was rolling the waves high on the shore.
Immediately on coming to the surface
Sthe Fulton, under her own power, ran
alongside the dock and tied up. Rear
@aGnlral Lowe and Lieut.. Arthur Mac
Arthur refused to go into any discussion
Of the performance of the boat except
to say that they would be satisfied to
stay down longer. They are however
known to be enthusiastic over the work
OF the Futon thus far
Members of the crew say they expe-
rienced no difficulty In breathing, and
that the air was all that could be desired
and much purer and better than in an or
binary closed room in which are several
persons The men ate two meals while
under water, and enjoyed them. Most
of them obtained four hours sleep.
considering that we did not draw on
the tanks at all for air, consider this
wonderful. 1t upsets all the theories of
the physicians and scientists, who told
us that what we did last night was i'm
possible. 1 was very critical all night and
nothing escaped me-
The longest time that any submarine
boat had been under water heretofore
in the United States was three hours
Lieut.. Harry Collwell kept the Holland
submerged as long as that in the Poto-
mac last year The Fulton had never
been under longer than about twenty
five minutes, when she made a two-mile
run submerged a few weeks ago.

RESCUERS Persisted
RECOVERED FROM THE
BABY MINE
DIED IN A NOBLE EFFoR
Sought to Locate Ent0mbed Miners
and Are Themselves Found by
Rescuers, but Death Had
Claimed Them.

BLUEFIELD, w. Va, Nov. A.-The
dead bodies of the lost party of eight
well known mining men, who entered the
West mine of the Pocahontas Galleries
company on Friday morning last at II
o'clock, were recovered at 12:45e o'clock
today. At o'clock this morning a res
cuing party numbering forty persons en-
tered at the main entrance, bratticing
the mine as they went, in order to i'm
prove the circulation of the air. They
had reached distance of $500 feet from
the entrance when they encountered such
quantities of white damp that it was i'm
possible to proceed further.
Retracing their steps, they decided to
make another attempt from the Tug riv-
err entrance, some six miles across the
Flat Top mountain. They went In this
entrance about 1880 o'clock, and after
going a distance of some 600 feet found
the dead bodies of A. S. Hurst, chief in
spector, Bob Oldham, sub-inspector, and
Frazier G. Bell, mining engineer, all
huddled together
From their positions, they must have
met death suddenly and without pain.
All of them were lying face down, with
no signs of a struggle. Hurst had made
a pillow of his coat, on which his head
rested. The bodies of the other five mem
bers of the party, Superintendent OF
Mines Walter O'Malley, Joseph Cardwell,
superintendent of the Shamokin Coal and
Coke company, r. E. St. Clair, second
assistant Inspector, State Mine Inspector
Price and Maurice ST. Clair, sub-inspect.
or, were found several hundred feet back
in the mine, three of the bodies lying
some distance apart Bob ST. Clair and
Joseph Cardwell were lying dead with
arms clasped around each other. The
bodies of O'Malley, Maurice st. Clair and
Price were discoIored and bruised about
the face, showing signs of struggle, it
being very plain that they made a Ges-
perate attempt at retracing their steps
to better air.
1t is said by members of the rescuing
party that Hurst, Bell and Oldham would
hardly have lost their lives but for the
fact that they lost their way, entering
a chamber $50 feet to the left, or near
one Of the passages from the Baby mine
in which the deadly white damp had ac-
cumulated in great quantity.
The bodies are very much swollen, and,
having been attacked by mine rats pre-.
sent gruesome spectacle.
The fire is still burning in the Baby
mine, and the mine officials seem at
loss to understand how it will be finally
extinguished. The only way, it is be-
Heved, is by flooding.
