Of he delegates. The managers of MIR.
Dawes's candidacy seem confident tonight
that there will be no Endorsement of Hop

to control the Cook county delegation in
this matter and that 225 votes from that
county are opposed to it. Congressman
Cannon arrived from Danville this morn
ing. He will be temporary chairman of
the convention. He had nothing to say for
publication, except that the convention will
indorse Hopkins.
The action of Cook county yesterday in
indorsing Mammar for Supreme Court clerk
and Busse for state treasurer is regarded
as conclusive as to these offices, although
the sentiment is strong among the country
delegates against giving both Offices 10

Ex-Congressman William Lorimer arrived
this morning. and for two hours has been
in conference with State Senator Len

pie to take an evening ride with him. They
started out on a trip to Lake Erie early in
the evening and were returning when the
accident happened. Mr.. Hepburn. Miss
Clara Marks and Miss Grace Lowe are
the only survivors. Mr.. Hepburn states that
he saw the lights of the approaching tug.
and thinking 1t was bound straight down
the river turned to the east. Nearly abreast
of the launch the tug suddenly turned TO
the east in order to make the dock az
Ironville. and before the launch could get
out of the way it was struck by the tug and
turned over and sunk about one hundred
feet from the dock. Mr.. Hepburn caught
hold Of the side of the tug and the Lowe
girl grasped his leg and both were pulled
on the tug. The Marks girl was picked up
from a cushion on which she hoated.
Arthur Marks also was fortunate enough TO
grab a piece of wreckage and was picked
up by those on the tug. The other seven
members of the party were drowned, and
the river is now being dragged for their
bodies, but they will probably not be re-
covered before daylight.
The tug brought the rescued to this
city. Mr.. Hepburn was not able to give the
names Of the drowned and their COM
panions who were saved were not able TO
talk before being taken home. Capt. AL
Pitts, who was in charge of the tug.
says that the launch showed no lights and
that he was not aware of its presence until
the tug struck her.

DAY QUIETLY SPENT.
First Day of the New Year Passed
without Excitement

New Years Day passed quietly
enough and the various events that had
been scheduled came off without a
bitch. There were not so many people
on the streets as is usually the case
on a holiday and there was no disor-
der or excitement of any sort.
With the business houses it was a
half holiday, although the public build
ings were closed the entire day. The
people appeared to wish to rest after
the Christmas celebration, and there
was nothing even remotely resembling
the outdoor scenes of Christmas Eve
and Christmas. The occasional explo-
sion of a fire. cracker was heard DUR
ing the day, and towards night-fall the
sounds were more frequent, but the
rockets and Roman candles seemed to
have spent their fury during the pre-
vious week
Large numbers spent the day in the
woods and on the water and returned
to the city last night with game and
without. Those who had been lucky
were fatigued, but happy. while those
who returned empty-handed were not
at all pleased with what had happened.
For the Office forces of some of the
departments Of the railroads, the day
was holiday. but those connected
with the operating department saw no
difference between yesterday and any
other day. Business is heavy with the
lines, and there is plenty for all de-
partments to do. Some of the heads
of the departments were unable to
give their forces even half the day be-
cause of the amount of work that de-
wolves upon them from day to day
Those who got the entire day or the
afternoon, however, enjoyed their time
eff greatly.
The football game caught the crowd
during the morning and the matinee
performance of Railroad Jack" was a
magnet during the afternoon. The en-
tertainment at the Y. NJ. G. A. at
tracted many during the evening.
1t was a particularly dull day with
the police, and the men had very little
to do. No disorder of any sort was re-
ported at headquarters. and very few
arrests were made. During the after
noon negro who had been celebrating
Emancipation Day was sent to the sta
ton house for drunkenness. None of
the other arrests made could be at
tributed to the fact that holiday was
being celebrated.
The fireman had an equally dull time,
and there was not a call during the day.
The men at the several fire stations
were remembered by neighbors, and
spent the day pleasantly. The men at
No. 6 station. on Thirty eighth and
Barnard streets, received a large sup
ply of edibles, for which they desire to
express their thanks to those who re-
membered them.
The prisoners in the county Jail were
not forgotten and were visited by Mrs.
Richard Webb and a delegation from
the w. c. T. u. The unfortunates were
supplied with cake and fruit done up in
individual packages. They appeared ap-
preciative and were profuse in their
thanks.
