INTO A SMALL BOAT
THEY HAD TO TUMBLE

The Palmers men managed to lower
boat. There was no time to procure pro-
visions or additional clothing.
AS the men cleared the wreck they saw
the Crary's men in the same plight and
made room for as many as could reach
the boat. Fifteen souls were in the small
craft when it finally pulled away, both
captains being among those who thus es-
capped. A short time after the boat left
both schooners went down. Six men per-
ished when the vessels sank. For the sur
vivors battle which lasted three days
and four nights had begun. One third Of
the number succumbed in the fight, and
of those who finally reached short none
was able to realize what he had es-
capped.
The Louise B. Crary was a compare
lively new vessel. She was built at Bath
Me-, in 1900, and was one of the finest
fve-masters on the coast. Her cargo con-
sisted of 3,7o2 tons Of bituminous coal
consigned to this port. The vessel was
only partially insured, but her cargo was
fully covered.
The Frank A. Palmer was the largest
four-masted schooner ever constructed
She was built at Bath in 1887 and was
sold to J. S. Winslow & Co. of Portland
Me. She sailed from Newport News on
December 4 with 1900 tons OF coal for
Boston.

PYRAMIDS OF MAIL IN
WHICH ARE HIDDEN AWAY

New York, Dec. aa.-At the general
postotiice and the foreign branch double
force of men worked all day Sunday and
Sunday night, and it was said that the
Office would be turned over to the day
force this morning, with all work finished
up to the hour.
Considering the fact that in addition to
the heavy Christmas mail more than 5000
bags of foreign mail had arrived since
Saturday evening, this was looked upon as
an unusual and probably unequalled "a
hours work in the history of the post
office.
This congestion was caused by the be-
lated steamers. The Cymric arrived last
Saturday afternoon with 1000 bags of mail
on board. This did not reach the foreign
branch until early Sunday morning. Then
came the Savoe with 344 sacks; the
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse, with 600, and
the Etruria with 1906. These vessels
came up to their respective piers during
the day and by 10 o'clock over half the
mail had been worked and the worst of
the unusual rush had been met and con-
Auered.

JONES OF TOLEDO
BREAKS OUT AGAIN
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS,

Chicago, Dec 22.---"Thcodorc Roose-
welt as a man is greater than the govern
ment he represents. While the govern
mcnt Of the United States was unable to
restore peace in the anthracite region,
Roosevelt, not as president, but as a man,
suggested rational way to settle the
trouble. The man triumphcd and the
problem was solved"
Thus spoke Samuel NJ. ("Goldan Rule")
Jones, the mayor Of Toledo, Ohio, before
the Chicago Peace society. He sought TO
show that force Of arms was futile that
war was inexcusable and that killing in
battle was murder Mayor Jones de-
clared, however, that he was IN optimist,
and, in spite of recent wars, he said the
world was better off than it was 100 years
ago, and was continually improving.
Mayor Jones criticised Major General
Young, who, at a banquet in Cleveland on
Saturday night spoke OF the necessity of
force to maintain the supremacy of the
nations commerce.

TOO WEAK TO BE TAKEN
FROM MANHASSETT'S DECK

The Manhassett came into the harbor
early this morning showing signals for as
sistance and by the time she arrived at a
wharf ambulances were ready to transfer
the sailors to hospital. Only six men
could be removed. The other four were
in such condition that it was deemed i'm
possible that they could survive being
taken from the vessel.
Two of the men on the Manhassett are
Capt. w. II. Potter of the Crary ana Cap
tain Rawling Of the Palmer.
The other two men are sailors, both of
whom are raving maniacs. The men taken
to the hospital were not only in critical
condition physically, but they were in
such mental plight that nothing could
be learned from them as to their expe-
rience. Little by little, however, the crew
OF the Manhassett had learned something
of the hardships of the wrecked men. 1t
appears that the collision occurred at ?: :3o
last Wednesday night off Cape Ann. The
night was clear, but stiff gale was blow
ing and the sea was running high. The
members of the Palmer's crew claimed
that the Crary was on the wrong tack
and, in attempting to cross the Palmers
bow, hit her on the bow, cutting her nose
square off and entangling both vessels in
the wreck. The vessels began to fill and
sank in few minutes

JOHN WHITE FREED
SUMTER COUNTY CONVICT Sc.
CURES A PARDON.
He Was Convicted Upon circum'
stantial Evidence of Murder OF
His Neighbor-Clemency Re-
auested by Trial Judge.

John White, who was convicted OF muir
der last February in Sumter county On
circumstantial evidence, was paruoheu
yesterday by Governor Jelks.
The evidence against White. circumstan-
tiaI and contradictory in several parlcu-
lars led the trial Judge and the Solicitor
to seriously doubt his guilt ana ask the
Governor to release him.
White was charged with crime, Tor
which, IL he had been proved guilty con-
clusively, the death sentence would have
been given He was charged with the
cold blooded assassination of a neighbor.
1t was alleged that White had laid IN
wait for his neighbor and shot the man
down on his own doorstep after nightfall.
The crime was committed on rainy
night and the murderer left his foot
prints in the soft mud about the house.
Several men who compared the tracks
with the shoes of White swore that they
correspondent, while another party of men
who made the comparison swore that
Whites shoes and the tracks OF the muir
derer did not correspond.
There was other conflict in the circum-
stantial evidence, all of which induced the
Jury that tried the case to reduce the
charge from murder in the first degree
to murder in the second degree. White
was given a sentence of ten years Of
which he has served about eleven months.
The Governor in granting the pardon
said:
ut appears clear to my mind that there
is serious doubt of this mans guilt. For
this reason, to which the trial Judge
and Solicitor agree, let full pardon issue. 3"
