BURNING VESSEL OFF
CAPE MAY COAST
Caught in Heavy Flow of
Delaware Bay Ice.
Life Savers Have Gone to the Aid of
the Crew-The Beach Dotted
With People.

CAPE MAY. N. J., Feb. 10.-A three
masted schooner is burning here tonight.
The fire started about ) o'clock this after
noon. The schooner apparently anchored
about six miles off shore northeast OF the
Cape May Lighthouse Saturday night, and
was caught in the ice flowing out of Della
ware Bay.
The Cold Spring life savers have gone
out to her. TIE crews of the Cape May
and Turtle Gut stations stand ready to as
sist the COLD Spring men if they should
signal for help.
The twenty miles to be covered means
a long and hard row for the surfmen, who
may not return before daylight.
1t is believed the schooner's crew are in
their small boats in the ice waiting for as
sistance. The beaches are dotted with peo-
pie watching the burning vessel.

YOUNG BROOKLYN LAD
HANGS HIMSELF
Found Dead in His Room at
Trenton School.
Son of Capt. w. G. Hnnnum, Assist.
ant Pnymnster in the L. s. Navy
Tragedy u Mystery.

TRENTON, n. J., Feb. 10.-Clare Han
mum, a student at Peddie Institute,
Hightstown, was found hanging dead in
his room this afternoon, every indication
being that he had either willfully or &C
cidcEtally committed suicide.
He was fifteen years old and the only
son of Capt. W. G. Hannum, assistant
paymaster of the United States Navy,
whose home is in Brooklyn. The cause
prompting the tragedy is a complete mys-
terry.
Bright student.
Young Eannum, who has always been
regarded as a bright student, played with
his companions as usual this morning
and seemed in the best of health and
spirits.
Part of the day he spent in decorating
his rooms. About o'clock this afternoon
Hannums roommate, William Bryant, of
Cape May, was surprised to find the door
OF the room locked. No response being
received to his repeated knocks, the jani-
tor was called and, upon bursting open
the door, the body OF young Hannum was
found partially suspended in front of a
closet door.
Two screws had been fastened above
the door. and to these a rope tied, one
end of which was fastened in an unyield-
ing knot about the boys neck.
Rope Was Long.
A singular feature of the affair was
that the rope was too long to raise the
boy from the floor, and he rested in a
half crouching position upon his knees.
DR.. George Titus and DR.. W. L. Wilbur
fore they were convinced that life was
extinct and further efforts useless.
The students at Peddie Institute are
nearly all young boys. and the tragedy
occasioned SO much excitement as to
arouse grave fears on the part of the in
structors.
Principal SHETLAND could ascribe no
cause for young Hannums rash act The
boys said he had not been censur ed, nor
was he known to have had any trouble or
his mind to prompt the deed.
-. No Cause Assigned.
1t is thought he may have attempted a.
roommate. Besides being locked. the door
of the room was securely barricaded on
the inside.
Captain and Mrs. Hannum were tele-
graphed for. but had not arrived at the
institute when communication between
this city and Hightstown closed tonight.

WANTS POSSESSION OF HOUSE.
Suit brought by John Mariner Over
Real Estate Transactiop.

Mr.. Charles C. Duncanson is named as
defendant in a suit for $40. 900 damages
Instituted yesterday in the Supreme Court
of the District by Mr.. John Mariner in
connection with a real estate transaction.
1t is alleged by the plaintiff that he
purchased premises No. 4i2 Ninth Street
for 500 900, for the purpose of improving
it, with the understanding that he would
get possession of it at the expiration of
lease which covered it until March 10,
1901
Mr.. Mariner states that he recently
learned that Mr.. Duncanson had leased
the premises for one year from April Is,
1900, with the privilege of renewal for q
period of two years. This, Mr.. Mariner
says, may keep him out of the use of the
property until April. 1903 Mr.. Mason N.
Richardson is named as counsel for the
plaintiff.

TO ENTERTAIN GRAND
ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC
Liberal Contributions From
the Railroads.
Hotel Projectors and BOARDING.
house Keepers Also Open Up
Their Purse Strings.

The subscription list for funds with
which to entertain the Grand Army OF tho
Republic during its annual encampment
to be held here next fall has beea ma
terially increased by a contribution ag-
gregating sl2.500, subscribed by the va
rous railroad companies entering the
city.
The committee in charge of the collec-
ton OF the funds believe that by next
week a sufficient amount will have been
subscribed or pledged TO warrant the Dis
trict Commissioners extending Il formal
invitation TO the executive committee OF
the Grand Army OF the Republic to hold
the encampment within the gates of tho
National Capital
EOnifnccs Subscribe Literally.
The proprietors of the various hostel
ries and the boarding house keepers of
the city are contributing freely to the
fund.
The fact that free quarters for the Wis
:tors at the coming encampment has been
practically abandoned is sufficient assIT-
ance to the bcnifaces of all degrees that
they would do a land office business. hence
their liberality when the subscription list
IS handed them.
