A STORY OF sHlPWREck.
a Whale Strikes n Ship and Causes
1t to Sink.

st. Thomas, d. w. l., April 5.-The
nine men from the whaler katheleen,
of New Bedford, Mass, who reached
the island of Dominica, b. w. l.,
March 2S, in an open boat, are now at
Antigua, b. w. /. The previous re-
port that the wife of the captain of
the Kathleen was in the boat that
reached Dominica is Incorrect. Fur
ther particulars of the loss of the
Kathleen are as follows:
When at a point about 1,100 miles
eastward of Barbados, three boats
from the Kathleen were pursuing
shoal of whales on March II. When
at some distance from the ship they
noticed that she was signalling
them to come to her immediate as
sistance. The three boats returned
toward the Kathleen. 1t was learn
ed that a large whale had struck the
ship ten feet below the water line,
starting her timbers, and that she
was filling rapidly.

NATIONAL BANKS.
Report of Comptroller of the Currency
on Banks of Small Capital.

Washington, April A statement
prepared in the Office of the comp
troller of the currency shows that
during the period beginning March
II, 1900 (the date of the passage of
the act authorizing the organization
of national banks with minimum cap
J ii of $4,000, etc.), and terminating
J March 81, 1902, there were added
to the system 919 national banking
associations with capital of $50, ,269,-
600 and bond deposits as security for
circulation of $3.50, ,,339, 800. Included
in this number We're 121 banks with
capital of $S,595,OOO, representing
conversions of state banks; 29O with
capital of S1j,13O,OOO, reorganizations
of state or private banks liquidated
for that purpose, and SOB banks with
capital of $26,544,OOO primary organ
izations.
In other words, a trifle over 81 per
cent. of the banks organized were
those of primary organization and
the remainder conversions or reor-
CARNATIONS. Classified by capital it
is shown that Gil banks with aggre-
gate capital of $4,000 900 were of the
class authorized by the act of March
IA, l9OO, namely, with individual cap
ital of less than $4,000, and 3Os with
aggregate capital of $34, ,2G5, 900 banks
with individual capital of $4,000 or
over. OF the converted state banks
81, with aggregate capital of 81, 49,
600, were of the smaller class, and 40
with total capital of $6,420,0OO of the
larger class.
Comparing condition on March IA,
1900, with March 81, 1902, it is shown
that there has been net increase in
number of banks of sos; the capital
has increased from $616, 6,3Os,O95 to
$672, 9,195, or $56,451, 100, and circu-
lation secured by bonds from $2l6,-
374,795 to $317, ,46O,382, a net increase
of $1Ol,O85,597 In addition to the
foregoing amount of bond secured.

was also in circulation notes to the
amount of $4O,016,O25, for which law

ANOTHER STRIKE.
Street Railway Wen of Norfolk ya.s
Threaten to 90 Out Again.

Norfolk, Va, April AT a meet
ing Friday of street railway motor
men and conductors who went out on
former strike against the Norfolk
Railway and Light Co., it was decid-
ed to renew the fight against the
company. This action was taken as
result of the alleged refusal of
General Manager Johnson, of the
company, to reinstate employees
whose names had been submitted to
him.
W. II. Mullen, secretary of the
Richmond Trades and Labor Council,
has been here for two days for the
purpose of financially aiding the
strikers. 1t is reported that Mr.. Null
len said there viii be strike in
Richmond to-day of all the Williams
syndicate employees, including the
Richmond Traction Co. The strike
here effects only about 300 employees,
but three times that number would
be called out in Richmond in the
event of Il strike.

YOUNG MURDERER,
Boy Confessed to Cutting an
Old Mans Throat.
The Victims EOdy Put In IA Cave and
the Entrance Walled Up with
Stones Officers Believe
Half the Story Has
Not Been Told.

Salt Lake, Utah, April Clyde
day stated to the police that he had
concealed the body of Sam Collins,
the aged watchman of the Wasataka
mines at Warm Springs, after the
latter had committed suicide, yester-
day broke down and confessed that
he had cut the old mans throat in
the little cave above Warm Springs,
stripped the body of clothing, and
after walling up the entrance with
stones, had buried the blood-stained
clothes. Young Felt said that he had
cut Collins throat only after long
urging by the old man, who insisted
that he wanted to die and was afraid
to commit the deed himself
Early Friday Felt, with two police
men, climbed the hills to the vicin-
ity of the murder to search for Col
Inns valise, which the boy said the
old man had hidden on the day of his
death. Felt led the officers up and
down the hillside in an aimleGs man
ner for time and finally stopping,
admitted that the story of the valise
was a myth; that Collus never had
one ana Indb Ine crime ndu DteH
committed by himself after Collins
had begged him for hours to commit
the deed. "1Ele had frequently asked
me to do it, said the boy but | was
afraid to. Finally | did. Then when
he was dead ] took off his clothes,
threw the razor up on the bank and
walled in the cave"
From statements made by other
boys in the ne1ghborhood of the
tragedy, however, the police believe
that half of young Felt's story bas
not been told and that behind the
tragedy is a tale of moral degeneracy
and conspiracy among a number of
young boys in the old mans power,
which finally eliminated in Collins
death. a number of arrests prob
ably will follow.
Felt insists that he was alone with
Collins when the murder was commit
ted. Nevertheless the police believe
that the boy has not told all of his
story and are working on the theory
that others were implicated.

MUCH TESTIMONY.
&c Hs Given Before the House Hnvesti-
gaIImg CommLIIee.

Washington, April 1.-The inyesti-
CATION of charges in connection with
the Danish West Indies negotiations
was resumed yesterday by the house
special committee having it in
charge, Abner Mckinley was the
first witness. Asked as to whether
he knew Capt. Christmas, the witness
said he had met him once in the most
casual way in the lobby of the Man
haitian hotel, New York. He never
held any conference with him of any
kind or character.
Representative Gardner followed
with a statement disclaiming all
knowledge of Christmas except of
the most casual character. Some
one, he said, had asked permission to
present a lady and gentleman at his
(Gardner'S) room. There was brief
meeting and the card left bore the
name of Christmas. That was the eN-
tent of his acquaintance with Christ
mas.
Mr.. Hansen, the next witness, gave
his business as an attorney at New
York. He said Christmas told him in
1899 of the movement to sell the Dam
ish islands to the United States and
of Denmark's willingness to pay lib
orally in case of a sale. Christmas
desired Hansen to act as counsel.
Witness called on Abner Mckinley
and asked him if he would become as
sociate counsel. Mr.. Mckinley re-
piled that he (Hansen) ought to
know that he (McKinley) would not
be retained on any negotiation in
which the government was con-
cerned.
Later Hansen said he talked with
Col. Brown and requested him to ask
the president if there was any inten-
tion of buying the Danish islands.
Col. Brown made the inquiry, the wit
ness said, and was referred by the
president to Secretary Hay. When
Col. Brown returned to New York he
told Mr.. Hansen that the United
States did intend to buy the islands.
Mr.. Hansen then accepted Christmas
proposition, telling him, however, he
desired no compensation except to
be appointed attorney for Denmark
later if the negotiations were sue
cCssful.
Melville +. Stone, general manager
of the Associated Press, next testi-
fed. He stated that he had general
charge of all news matters of the as
sociation and had full knowledge of
all contracts and business affairs.
Mr.. Dalzell asked if Christmas ever
had any contract with the associa-
ton. Mr.. Stone answered that there
was no such contract.

A NEW PARTY.
sailed Peoples Party of the United
States, Organized.

Louisville. Ky, April 4.-Under the
name of the allied peoples party of
the United States a new political or
ganization was formed here yester-
day, composed of reform elements
opposed to the democratic and re-
publican parties. The platform OF
the new organization embodies the
platform adopted at the conference
held in Kansas City last September,
when call for a convention was is
sued, ito unite reform forces against
plutocracy." 1t reaflirms the spirit
of the declaration of principles
adopted at the national conventions
of the peoples party in st. Louis,
Omaha and Cincinnati and the de-
mand for the initiative and referen-
dunn and the government ownership
of all public utilities are its principal
planks.
Under the plan of organization
adopted the national committee of
the peoples party, with 10 \. Parker
as its chairman, will remain intact,
with the addition of three more mem
bers from Missouri, who will have
one-half vote each, until the next ma
tional, this being a concession to the
reform forces of that state. This
committee will have power to CARL
national convention and it's headquar-
ters will be situated wherever the
chairman desires, except three
months before an election, when they
will be in st. Louis.
The basis of representation will be
five delegates at large from every
state and territory and one addi-
tional delegate for every thousand
voters, based on the vote at the pre-
ceding national election.
In the plank on money, the plat
form adopted favors scientific money
based upon the entire wealth of the
people of the nation and not redeem
able in any specific commodity, but
to be legal tender for all debts, pub
lie and private, and to be issued by
the government only and without the
intervention of banks.
