The hope among shipping men is that
the dredge. now at work in the river
opposite the Bay street front, will be
kept there until all the shoals and dan
gerous places to navigation are re-
moved. Sand from above drifts into
the channel around the Seaboard' $
piers, forming shoals which hinder yes
sells in getting into the slips. The
steamers entering the slips this season
are not of unusually deep draught and
with the channel clear of its obstruc-
tons, delay in the docking of vessels
would not be encountered. The dredge
has been at work for some time, doing
good work, and the hope is expressed
that the good work will be kept up"
The greater part of the maritime
trade of the port of Hamburg in for
mer times was carried on under for
eign flags, owing principally to the
preponderance of British tonnage.
After many years of steady efforts,
however the German flag has at last
won the first place in Hamburg's sea
traffic. Connected with Hamburg are
seventy-four regular lines under the
German flag, thirty-seven under the
British, eight under the Norwegian, six

JOHNSON IS SUPREME
HE WILL CONTROL THE OHIO
CONVENTION.
Organism and the Kansas City Plat
form Will Be Endorsed at
the Behest Of the Mayor
of Cleveland.

Sandusky, o., Sept. 1.-Some of the
leaders and delegates are already here
today for the Democratic State Conven-
ton which has its preliminary meetings
tomorrow and its sessions on Wednes-
day. Nominations are to be made for
only four State offices. and there are no
heated contests for places on the State
ticket.
As result Of the County Conventions
in advance that. the Mclean
element was taking no aggressive part
except in the selection Of State commit
teemen and as most % the delegates are
friendly to Mayor Thomas L. johnson OF
Cleveland. who will be chairman of the
convention, the indications are that the
convention will be harmonious and with
out unusual features, except in the ova-
ton accorded Mayor johnson. While 1t
is generally conceded that he can name
the ticket and dictate the platform, there
is no slate announced. 1t Is conceded that
Rev. Herbert s. Bigelow can have the
nomination for Secretary of State IL he
will accept it, but since the Mclean men
secured the organization of his home coun-
ty by re-electing Lewis G. Bernard as
Chairman of the Executive Committee at
Cincinnati, Rev. Bigelow's acceptance
may remain in doubt until after a con-
ference between johnson, Bigelow and
other leaders.
While everything is conceded by the
Mclean men to the Johnson element, ex-
cept control of the new State Central
Committee, that as well as all other COM
mittees is claimed by the Johnson ele-
ment. While the Mclean men are OPP
posed strongly to some of Mayor john
sons views on the johnson platform
which has been prepared at Cleveland and
will be brought here by the Chairman of
the Convention tomorrow and which is In
accord with his well known views.
The platform will not only incorporate
Johnson's views on taxation. franchise or
other State issue. but also reaffirm the
Kansas City platform and endorse Bry-
an. The Democratic Convention that
nominated Colonel James Kilbourne for
Governor last year did not mention Bry
an or the Kansas City platform.
The feature of the day was the arrival
of Mayor Johnson in his automobile at
4:30 D. m. from Cleveland. While adj
hitting that he had outlined State plat.
from he did not ere to discuss 1t in ad-
vance of its consideration by the Com
mittee on Resolutions. But he admitted
that he wanted the same planks on taxa
ton that he had inserted in the declara-
ton of principles last year. Regarding
national aaffirs he spoke highly of Colo
mel Bryan and the platforms on which
he made his campaigns. Mayor Johnson
stated that he favored the nomination of
Rev. Herbert S. Bigelow for Secretary
of State and Senator krause for Food
Commissioner
Elaborate quarters were prepared today
for ], l.. Zimmerman of Springfield. who
is an avowed candidate against Mayor
johnson for Governor next year. Rev.
II. S. Bigelow will also make canvas
of the State. He is the pastor of the
Vine Street Congregational Church in Cin-
cinnati which as become independent of
creeds under his pastorate.

location and calibre Of the ordnance In

The navy's night attack was not ex-
pected at the western end of the line
quite so early in the game. The theory
was held all day after 1t was known that
Higginson had secured base on the OUT

ends of the line and then swing his fleet

sharp yet heavy attack there, vancouver

Addresses Brief.
LARGE ~ IS HEAR HIM

East Mortified. Mass. Sept. 1.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today concluded his tour
through Vermont at Battleboro. and Is
spending the night here at Mortified.
The reception accorded him at Brattle-
boro was among the prettiest. best con-
Quoted and most enthusiastic he has re-
ceived In his tour of New England. Upon
arriving at the station he was met by a
company of infantry headed by a band
and escorted to the common where he
delivered a brief address in which he
spoke of Abraham Lincoln as the man of
the hour in the great civil war.
The Presidents progress through Brat
tleboro was a continuous ovation. On the
line Of march his carriage was stopped
in front Of the leading hotel and from
the balcony men, women and children
showered loose flowers and boquets upon
him. Arriving at the common where he
delivered his address the pavilion steps
were strewn with flowers by little girls
who were drawn up on both sides.
Labor Day was generally celebrated
throughout the State, wherever the train
stopped, holiday crowds were out to ex-
tend the President a welcome. The heat
was excessive but the President seemed
to suffer but little from its effects.
His remarks on the subject of labor
were confined mostly to a tribute to the
people of Vermont and he expressed hts
pleasure at being greeted by the repre-
sentatives of organized labor because. he
said, the typical American is the man
who works.
The President began the days journey
at Burlington, reaching that city from
Shelburn, the home of Or. W. Seward
Webb. After drive about the city the
presidential train started southwark,
stops being made at Vergennes, Mindless
bury. Brandon. Proctor. Rutland, Ludlow,
Bellows Falls. Chester and Brattleboro
and his Vermont trip was ended. He
crossed into Massachusetts early In the
evening and went to Mortified to remain
tonight as the guest of William A. Moody,
son of the noted evangelist Dwight l..
Moody, at the Mortified Hotel. The
President will go to Round Top in the
morning to visit Mr.. Moody's grave.
The President spoke at every stop to-
day. but most of his addresses were brief.
That of greatest import was the one de-
livered at Proctor the home of Senator
Proctor, wherein he defined his idea of
the Monroe doctrine. The most unique
speech of the day was that delivered to-
night from the auditorium here.

Capetown, Sept. IA terrific gale.

great loss Of life and wrought much dam
age to shipping at Port Elisabeth. Fifty
bodies have already been washed ashore
there.
The storm broke shortly before mid
night last night and was accompanied
by a deluge of rain and brilliant light
ming. The night was very dark. Several
tugs went out to the assistance of the
endangered vessels In the harbor. but
nothing was visible from the shore at
Port Elizabeth except the continual
flashes of rockets as signals of distress.
Daylight found the beach at the end of
Algoa Bay strewn with bodies lying high
and dry while others were in the surf
and being swept ashore by the huge
breakers.
Eighteen vessels, mostly sailing craft
were driven ashore. Five of them were
dashed to pieces and all the members of
their crews were lost. A score of light
ers are ashore.

already been washed ashore.
The British steamer Scott, belonging

day for Capetown. She was due here
early today. but has not yet been sighted;
great anxiety is felt regarding her fate.
Sir John Jordan Sprigs, the Premier,
said in the House of Assembly today that
he feared the loss of life from the gale
would be enormous.

Dealing with People of Samar.

replies to the charges of cruelty on tho
part of the American army appearing in
European newspapers. He says:
Perhaps no other nation. except the
United States would have had the pa
thence to meet the stubborn resistance of
the Filipinos in Sarnar for two long years
with such humanity as has. on the whole.
been the case. 1t is no wonder leaders
finally let their gall run over at the
treacherous tricks played upon them and
adopted sharper measures. OF course
some excesses occurred, but 1t Is highly
inadmissible to select these few cases and
serve them to the public as typical of
American war-making."
The correspondent also emphasizes the
injustice of expecting the Americans to
observe in every case the rules of civil
lied warfare while fighting such a foe.
The writer praised the political shrewd-
ness. combined with moderation, of max
ing surrendered insurgent officers gov
