Getaways From the Elingamie Crept Upon
Sleeping Companions TO Satisfy Their
Vampire Thirst
(By the Associated Press.)

London, Nov. 2O-The correspondent of
the Daily Mail at Wellington, N H.,
cables that the eight survivors of the
steamers Elingamite, who were rescued
on a raft by the British survey steamer
Penguin, admit that while their minds
We're unhinged by hunger some of them
prolonged lie by drinking the blood of
their companions. This was done mostly
by mutual consent of two parties, in
cisions being made in their skins and
each sucking the blood of the other
simultaneously. Those of the castaways
refusing to do this were tapped whilst
they were asleep, and it is alleged that
the stewardass died of exhaustion
through loss of blood taken by this pro-
cess.
The correspondent adds that the story
OF the survivors has caused a feeling
of horror in wellington, their action be-
ing regarded as ineXcusable, as the raft
was only four days and half afloat.

DEMANDS PROMPT INVESTIGATION.
Cadets Have Reen Forbidden to Drink at Spring
in Pullen Park.

A condition of affairs exists in regard
TO the water in the spring house at
Pullcn Park that demands Immediate at
tention from the city officials.
BY direction of Captain Phelps. com
mandant at The A. and Nj. College, the
entire student body of that institution
have been forbidden TO drink water at
the spring. This is reported to have
been done with the advice of the two
physicians of the city. who say that the
water in its present state is unhealthy,
being either contaminated from surface
water, or because of some local causes.
Mayor Powell said last night that he
had heard something of the matter, but
nothing had been done. so far as he
knew 1t was impossible to see Mr.. John
Ward, chairman of the Park Committee,
last night concerning the matter, but the
mayors word is that. there has been no
official action in the matter.
People from Raleigh drink from this
spring at Pullen Park. and their health
and safety demands immediate attention.
If the water is unhealthy the spring
should be closed for present use, until
the cause of the trouble is located and
removed.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Nov. I'm a

tonight and secured $1,943 from the score
of players and proprietors. meanwhile
seriously wcunding Harvey Howard, the
colored porter. The gambling place is
located some distance from the center
of the city, at the end of trolley line.
Each robber used a dark-colored hand
kerchief to shield the lower part of his
face There are two entrances to the
place and the bandits appearing stimuli
taneously at either door, ordered the in
mates to hold up their hands. The score
of players and attendants were then
aligned on each side of the room and
while the bandit leader kept them COW
cred with his revolver. his assistant
rifed pockets and tills.

The robbers backed out. keeping the
crowd covered with their revolvers until

THE LILY WHITE BUST
Clarkson Finds Roosevelt
Needs the Negro.
Treachery in The South by White Republicans
Said to Have Caused Roosevel's Sneak
From Pfiichard.

special to the Baltimore Sun from
Washington reports that Postmaster
General Henry C. Payne says that Prees
dent Roosevelt has no intention of ask
ing Congress to legislate to reduce rep
resentaton from the South in the lower
House His remarks indicated that Mr..
Payne expected Congress to do this
without prompting. He said that in re-
moving officials in Alabama the Presi-
dent was simply looking after the rights
of citizenship as antdgonzed by the Re-
publican officials who eliminated the ne
gro from participation in Republican
conventions, and was not with the idea
of building up negro party.
Mr.. Payne believes that the next Re-
publican convention will cut down the
representation in the convention from
the South to the basis of the votes cast,
and not tolerate a big lot of votes from
States which have a small Republican
electorate.
A special to the New York Times from
Washington says that from source
close to Roosevelt comes the intimation
that no more lilly whites" will be re-
moved in Alabama, as the President
that the negroes understand his position.
The same source intimates that all
Senator Pritchard has to do to retain
his favor with the Administration is to
'be good" If he will refrain from con-
Quoting actively his campaign for a
white party in North Carolina he will
stand in with the political managers of
the Administration. Reports from North
Carolina, however, do not encourage the
belief that Mr.. Pritchard will accept the
proposition.
down on the lilly whites,'' and of Sur
veyor Clarkson's fight for the negro, is
that the lilly white" movement was
secretly against Roosevelt, and that
Booker Washington so advised of the
treachery. Southern Republicans dis
credit this as they say the Alabama
lilly whites" endorsed Roosevelt, and
that Pritchard, who started it, was solid
for Roosevelt. They point out that until
Clarkson and the three negro preachers
saw Roosevelt it was understood that
the President was of the same mind as
Pritchard, and that in North Carolina
and in other Southern States the lilly
white" movement gained ground because
it was thought Roosevelt was behind it.
The Southerners do not hesitate to
charge that Mr.. Clarkson started his
fight against the lilly white" movement
in consequence of cold blooded calcu-
lation made by him that the negroes
would be more useful than the whites
in the next national convention.
