was the very frank statement with
which Dora Stone, a bright-looking

Then she told her story. She said
she had been living in Milwaukee,
where her mother recently died. Her
father. did not support her and She
was living with family that i'll
treated her.
Consequently she had decided TO
walk to St. Louis, or maybe New Or

she had depended upon the hospitali-
~ of farmers along the way.
At Fulton she boarded the Winona

When he went to purchase his ticket
at the Rock Island depot on Fifth
avenue, he placed his valise i'm one
of the high backed seats. Upon GO
ing back for il few moments later
he found that it had disappeared.
He told Agent Crandall about it and
the latter in turn gave a description
of ii to the police by telephone.
1t was only q few minutes after
learning of the theft that Officer
Etzel. CHANGING to look out of the
window at the police station, saw two
men pass, one of them carrying the
missing grip. Officer Thode grabbed
his club and went out on the trail,
and rounded the pair up in neighbor-
ing saloon. where they were trying IT,
sell their acquisition. When arrested
they registered as Cornelius Kelly
and Louis Hansen. The valise con
tanned, among other effects, a n;tmber
of manuscripts that their owner
valued very highly.
Hansen did not deny stealing the
satchel and at the hearing before
Magistrate Johnson in the evening he
exonerated Kelly. The latter was ac-
cordingly released, while Hansen was
bound over to the circuit court n
the sum of $500 and committed 30

value of the valise and contents will
be sufficient to send the prisoner over

composed of some 400 people. arrived
in the city this morning about 10
O'Clock. The Watch Tower was the
objective point and many of the Wis
itors during the day went to that
popular resort. The chilliness of the
air, however, constrained many ia
stay in the city and an unusual num-
Der of strangers were seen on the
streets all day. The special train
leaves on the return trip at 6:30 from
the Twentieth street station.

demand, either written or signed or
made orally in person, from the OPP
orators for any of the terms above
enumerated. He says the girls struck
voluntarily and without definite rea-
son so far as he has official knowl-
edge.
''One of the operators was called
down into the office this morning,
he said. FOR the purpose of ascertain
ing the position of the girls with re-
gard to certain rules that we mus
enforce to get good service. After
ward she quit and the others who are
out followed. l have nothing to saw
against the strikers. The operators
who have taken their places are girls
that have been drawn from offices OF
the company in other cities and the
new girls are accepting the same
terms as the strikers were subject To.
Il take full responsibility for all
that has taken place here today, AMI
I wish to state that the public will
receive good service in spite of any
difficulties that may arise.
The recent enforcement of the
number system was probably In an
ticipation of a strike.

Altar three hours of very lively de-
bate the third conference OF the House
republicans upon the proposition to
grant tariff concessions to Cuba sd-
iourned last night without reaching q
vote. So far a. the indications OF last
night are concerned, however, the
matter is practically settled, and unless
all sgns fail the recommendation OF
the ways and means committee to
make a 20 per cent reduction upon
Cuban imports, which means sugar
and tobacco chiefly, will be rejected.
As the matter now stands the bet t
sugar men control the situation. Had
a vote been taken last night they
would have been victorious two to one.
10 fact the members OF the ways and

When Chairman Payne arose to make
motion to adjourn Mr.. William
Alden Smith, one OF the leaders In the
fight against reduction, shouted :;
"Why adjourn2 We are ready to vote
upon this matter now. Are you ?"

changed his attitude toward Cubao

SINK IN A FOG.

The Belgian steamer Waeslsnd. OF
the Red Star Line, Captain Apfeld,
from Liverpool for Philadelphia, sunk
Wednesday night in the Irish Sea of
Holyhead after being In collision With
the British steamer Harmonides,
Captain Pentin, from Brazilian porte
for.Liverpool.
The Waesland's boats were im.
mediately lowered. The passengers
took their places in them without
hesitation, and sooD, less than half an
hour, the whole chips company we're
on board the Harmonides, except two,
a steerage passenger and the daughter
of a saloon passenger. who were killed,
They we're probably killed at the time
Of the collision.
There IL 90 doubt that the collision
was due to the thick fog which has
oyerhuug a large part of the British
Isles for two or three days, making tue
navigation OF the Irish Sea and English
Channel dangerous.
The Waesland was due at Queens
town at s O'Clock yesterday morning,
having left Liverpool some hours be-
fore the Germsnic, which arrived at
Queenstown at IL q. NJ. The Ger
manic reported thick weather, and she
was herself much delayed. She did
not see the Waesland. The latter had
thirty-two saloon and eight-two
steerage passengers, and carried crew
Of eiehty-nine persons. She had q
miscellaneous cargo on board.
The Harmonides arrived at Liver
pool at $50 O'Clock yesterday morning.
The agents OF the American Line met
her and superintended the transfer OF
the Waeslsnd's passengers to various
hotels.
The collision occurred at 11.36 p. m.
Wednesday during thick fog, forty
miles southwest OF Holyhead. The
Harmonides struck the Waesland amid
ships with great force. Most OF the
passengers had retired to their cabins,
but the assurances of the officers and
the GOODNESS and discipline OF the crew
prevented any panic. All the pssseu-
gers left their berths promptly and
obeyed instructions calmly and quickly.
The sea was calm. The Waeslsnd went
down thirty-fve minutes alter she was
struck. The passengers and crew lost
every thing except the clothing they
wore or were able to don hurriedly.
The Waeslsnd carried no mail. The
passengers highly praise the captain
and crew and also the captain and crew
OF the Harmonides.
The Wsesland. which belonged to the
International Navigation Company,
was the Cunsrd Line steamer Russia,
having been at one time one Of the
crack vessels of that line. She was
bnilt in 1867.

TheII-fated Waesiand.

Liverpool, March THE passengers
OF the lost American line steamship
Waesland were landed here at 5 o'clock
this morning. They presented 40 ex-
traordlnary appearance. Most OF them
were clad 10 their night clothes, over
which they had thrown blankets or old
garments, some OF which were loaned
them by members OF the crew of the
Hermonides, the steamer that crashed
into and sunk Waesland. Several
members oil the crews OF both vessels
we're badly cut or otherwise Injured
during the crash. 1t seems miracle
that the fatalities should number but
two. The victims were Elsie Emmott
the young child of the Rev. and Mrs.
Amos Emmett, who we're passengers
on the steamer, and Edward Danger
field, brewer, of Kansas, q steersge
passenger. DAngefield jumped into q
life boat while it was still 90 the dsvits,
causing the boat to tip and spilling the
occupants 10 the water. Elsie Emmot!
was one OF those in this boat. She was
drowned. Daugerfeld's skull was
crushed In by the fall. He had wife
and four children aboard the WaeslsDd.
The ia passengers of the Waesland
lost their entire belongings. Captain
Apfeld, OF the Wsesland, had in his
cabin specie that represented his saw
ings of 30 years. All the others we're
saved but 1t was a narrow shave.
While the passengers were embarkiug
10 the small bost, the Wstsr was rush
ing into big gap ripped 10 the side OF
the Waeslsud. The last boat had just
pushed of when the Inflated vessel
listed aud sank. The HermoDides was
within sight all the time, and took the
ship-wrecked people on board.

near Saxonburg station, brutally muir
dered the old man, tortured Mrs. Smith

and escaped. Mrs. Smith was so badly
frightened that she did not dare to
leave their home but stayed all night
with the corpse of her husband. She
partly dragged and partly carried his
body down ct airs and worked most otthe
night trying to bring him back to life.
When she at last resliz I'D that be was
dead, she feared to leave the house un-
til broad daylight. The Smith house
is a quarter OF mile from that OF the
