SPLIT AT CINCINNATI.
Zimmerman and Johnson Factions
 at Outs.

at Outs.
 Cincinnati, Aug. H.-The forty deiegates who held second convention this after noon after the Democratic Convention of Hamilton County had adjourned, have called public meeting at c. A. R. hall for next Friday night It is specified that one of the objects of the meeting is to protest against the membership of Lewis c. Bernard, who is charged with controll- liance with George B. Cox, the local Re- publican leader.
 The dissenting delegates at their con- venticn this afternoon appointed a com. mittee consisting of Rev. Herbert s. Biz elow and four others, to report on plan for bringing the contests of Hamilton County first before the Democratic State Central Committee and afterwards be- fore the Committee on Credentials and the State Convention and this committee will report at the opening of the mass meeting Friday night.
 It Is not yet decided whether an entire new delegation win be selected or whether the dissenting delegates will contest the places only of those for the wards and townships that were carried by the anti ernBard men, at the primaries last night. Among the seats in the State Convention thus contested is that of Melville D. In- gals. who is prominently mentioned for Senatorial endorsement.
 The local faction, headed by Bernard, represents those favorable to Zimmerman for Governor and the faction headed by Bigelow represents those favorable to Mayor Johnson. Bigeiow claims that the Johnson men carried the First Congress sional District, but that Bernard practi- cally deprived them of representation by having the delegates to the State Con- vention selected by his committee.

|CRAWFORDS
 ARE FOUND None Other Than ThereSe'S Brothers. TRIAL OF THE HUMBERTS D'Aurignac Identified as Fake Millionaire. Their Chirography Also the Same as That of the Alleged Americans Who Had the Alleged Money.
TRIAL OF THE HUMBERTS

Paris. Aug. 2.-witnesses at the Hum bert trial today, formally and positively identified Romain and Emil dAurignac. Mme Therese Humbert's brothers as be- ing the men who impersonated the American miilionaires,'' Robert and Henry Crawford. Other witnesses testified that the signatures of the two Crawfords were executed by the two d'Aurignacs. Personal identifications were given by a notary, named Dupuy, and a court clerk named de Hese Of Bayonne, before whom the alleged Crawfords took out legal papers which were used in keeping of the creditors of the Humbert family.
 After Notary Dupuy had described the visit to him of the Crawford brothers, the court directed Romain d'Aurignac to stand up. The witness then formally recognized Romain as the one who had taken out the Crawford papers. The witness was less sure about Emile.
 Dahese similarly gave a detailed identi- fcation of Romain d'Aurignac.
 Dehese's Identification.
 "Inspect him closely" ordered the judge. DO you formally recognize Ro- main d'Aurignac?'
 T am absolutely sure." answered the witness.
 Judge Bonnet then addressed Romain, saying:
 You are the object of a formal iden- tiflcation."
 "That does not astonish me-" answered Romain. sarcastically.
 Camille RGrand, a government archiv- ist swore from a comparison of the hand writing that Romain and Emile dAurig- mac had each played the parts of Robert and Henri Crawford.
 Three employees of the postofiice posi- lively identified Romain d'Aurignac as the man who regularly called for letters addressed to the Crawfords. 'I begin to believe that some one bears an extraor- dinary resemblance to me-" said Romain d'Arrignac. after the latest identihcat ton.

WENT ON THE ROCKS
BATTLEsHIP MASSACHUSETTS
 HAS ACCIDENT.
Several of Her Plates Cracked and It Will Be Necessary for Her !, to Go to the Dry
 Dock.

Bar Harbor, Me, Aug. 12.-while ieav- ing the harbor during thick fog about noon today in company with other ves- sells of the North Atlantic squadron, the battleship Massachusetts sustained con- siderable damage by striking on the edge of rocks off the western edge of Egg Rock.
 The big vessel slipped over the rocks into deep water. but the two forward bulkheads soon filled and 1t was subse- quentiy found that several plates forward had been cracked. The Massachusetts was headed hack Into the harbor with considerable difficulty. accompanied by her sister vessel, the Indiana. and the gunboat Scorpion. She will remain here until Captain Manning, her commander. receives orders from Washington, when 1t is expected she will proceed to Brook iyn to be dry docked.
 The squadron, under the command of Rear Admiral Barker, which has been on this part of the coast engaged in a war game, got under way shortly before noon today for Long Island Sound. The Mas sachusetts occupied position on the port quarter of the Texas as she proceeded from the harbor, which brought her much nearer to Egg Rock than the other ships. It is believed the accident was due to a of the navigating officer. When the big battleship struck she was going at the rate of about 9 1-2 knots and although she was drawing 26- feet of water and there was less than % feet on the ledge. her progress was but little retarded and she at once passed over into deep water.
 Her officers stated tonight that if she had been fifty feet to the westward, she would have cleared the ledge. The col- lision signal was at once sounded and the bulkhead doors closed tight. The Indiana and Scorpion, which were im- mediateIy behind her, ran alongside to render assistance and two torpedo boat destroyers were sent over by Admiral Barker to report on the accident. The channel at this point is very narrow and 1t was no slight task to turn the ship in such a dense fog. With the assistance of one of the naval tugs this was finally achieved ana at o'clock the Massachu- setts was at anchor with the Indiana, and the Scorpion close alongside.
 Captain Manning stated that two divers examined the bottom or the vessel this afternoon, and reported that several plates were cracked and that the ship would have to be dry docked for repairs The Massachusetts tonight was down by the head about ton inches. bur by morning she will be very nearly even keel as her crew are nard at work to- night carrying aft ammunition and stores. It is expected she will be in natural trim when her orders are re- ceived to sail.

TO SAVE BATsoN's LIFE.
Attorneys Say New Evidence Has
 Been Discovered.

New Orleans, Aug. 12.-There was an important development in the Batson case today. His attorneys, Messrs. Sompayrac and Overton. are to go to Baton Rouge tonight to lay before Governor Heard sme new evidence which they say has been brought to light and which they con- sider it their duty to present
 The attorneys are very guarded in speaking of the new evidence. One of the attorneys said tonight that the evidence was of importance and would have had an important bearing on the trial if it had been introduced with other evidence. The nature of the evidence is at best a sur mise, but it is conjectured by persons well informed on the case, that some one has been discovered by Batson's mother who will give testimony to support Bat sons claim of an alibi.
 It is supposed that the attorneys will pray for a respite for the condemned prisoner until the new evidence can be sifted.

CALLED ON ROOSEVELT
SENATORS WHO HAVE BEEN
 STUDYING FINANCE.
It Is. Their Hope That a Measure Can Be Framed Which Will Meet With Support of Re-
 publican Congressman.

Oyster Bay. N. Y, Aug. 12.-President Roosevelt had as his guests tonight at Sagamore Hill, the members of the sub committee of the Senate Committee on Finance which is engaged in drafting a currency measure to be submitted to Congress next fall. The subcommittee consists of Senators Aldrich, Rhode Island, chairman; Platt, Connecticut; Allison,s Iowa and SpQoner, Wisconsin.
 Prior to the adjournment of Congress last spring, this subcommittee was ap- pointed and authorized to sit during the recess of Congress to study the financial situation and prepare measure to meet the requirements of the situation as the committee viewed 1t, for introduction when the Senate should re-convene. On this work the committee, some time as individuals, part of the time as body, has engaged during the latter part of the summer. For a day or two the members have been the guests of Senator Aldrich at his Warwick residence, near Provi- dence. They are preparing now to put into concrete form the results of their investigation and labor
 Desiring to consult with President Roosevelt regarding the work, the sub- committee came to Oyster Bay late this afternoon
 It could not be ascertained definitely whether draft of currency measure has been made and was to be discussed tonight or not; but, as the Senators have been engaged for two days at Warwick with their clerks and stenographers, it is reasonably certain that some progress has been made toward the preparation of a currency bill
 The object of the committee is to ascer- tain the views of President Roosevelt with definiteness In order, if possible, to meet them in the framing of the measure. It is understood to DC the desire of all. including the President, that the bill should be ready for introduction at the extraordinary session which the President has announced he will call Monday. November g. Prior to that time the sub committee will submit It's draft of the proposed measure to the full Republican membership of the Senate Committee on Finance and probably such other Republ- can Senators as may be accessible.
 It is hoped that a measure may be drawn that will meet the approval of all Republican Senators so that when it Is introduced it may have the undivided party support. It can be said that the President is not welded to any particu- lar plan of currency reform. so called, but desires simply that a practicable scheme be evolved and put into the form of legislation at an early date that will render the currency system of the coun- try the more elastic and the less likely to be affected by the fluctuations of values or the demands for money at crop moving seasons. It is said to be unlikely that any definite information concerning the work of the subcommittee already accomplished will be given to the public at this time.

OCCURS ON LAKE HRIH

Erie. Pa. Aug. i2.-The Silver Spray, fishing boat. owned here. came into port this afternon in . badly shattered ooas- dition, due to m encounter in nidrlake about noon with the Canadian revsnus cutter Petrel. M
 The Canadian authorities have had trouble with American fishermen fcr years. who were poaching on their side oe the lake and the Petrel Is kept constants iy on the lookout for them.
 About noon she came upon the stIv3H Spray. on the Canadian side of the Ial<1 and at once ordered Captain Cris Chau te stop.
 The Petrei is strong steel craft az1& 1t Is said, attempted to ram the Amer4~ can boat before she could comply with the Petrers order. Captain Chau, remesn- bering the fate of several other baatK from this side. which had been capkureH and confiscated, two from Erie only sesx season. decided. to try to escape ana started ahead at full speed.
 The Petrel Opens Fire.
 The captain of the Petrel, when he eaw that tise Silver Spray was trying to xe1 away, opened fire with all the guns he had on board, and before he ceased firln& some twenty shots had struck the GlIvar Spray.
 One passed through the smokestack into the pilot house, in which Chau stood at the wheel. and two more struck the ykIo& house one coming within few inches ef Chau, scattering splinters around hin head. -
 Two shots entered the watercIoset, two pierced the cabin, two split the rouf. three swept the after hurricane deck. while others hit various parts Of the boat.
 The chase was kept up for mome tfnfM and Captain Chau was nearly in despair as his water pump refused to work, and he feared that his boat might be struck below the water lire. He finally crosse6 the international line and the Patrei rave up the pursuit.
 The Silver Spray Is . douhle-decker and was for kwelve yeara In service ae Buf- falo as pleasure steamer. Captain Ckau will report the affair to the State pa@ pertinent at Washington. as he says he was not hsbing. but looking for some og his nets which had drifted from this side toward the Canadian shore.

Yellow Fever at Victoria, Mex. Causes Alarm.

Laredo. Tex, Aug. 12.--rn view of the appearance of the yellow fever at Vie toria. Mexico, about 70 miles from Mon- terey, on the line Of the Monterey ana Gulf Railroad. the quarantine against the yellow fever established here, has been made more rigorous by the appointment State authorities. Both the state and marine hospital service physicians are ax present at Monterey Investigating the rue nor to the effect that yellow fever exists in that city and will not return until to- morrow when an official report on the sik- uation will probably be made to the Washington authorities. t@
 The consensus of opinion is that a quar- antine against Monterey will be e.tab- lished. Should such action be taken, ie would mean a complete temporary tie-up of railway traffic and would work greas hardship upon border merchants.
