Wireless Telegraphy on the Lakes.
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.


Wireless telegraphy as a means of COM
munication with ships in midlake will be
given a thorough test by one, and possibly
two. of the local passenger steamship COM
panies this season. The Dunkley-Williams
South Haven line already has stated its in
tention Of equipping its new steamer. City
of South Haven. with the necessary appa-
ratus Contracts have been let for the
erection of sending and receiving stations
both here and at South Haven. The Good
rich line also is said to have the matter un-
der consideration. and may. as an expert
ment provide one of its boats with the
wireless device. The plan of the promoters
of wireless telegraphy on the lakes is to
form a complete marine service on the
chain of inland waters, and they claim that
such will be in operation before the present
season ends. The stations in Lake Erie at
Stony Point and Cleveland have been COM
pleted. and those at Detroit and another
here, the latter located on the north shore,
will be completed late in the month. Should
the tests be successful many freiehters and
large passenger steamers will be equippe
with sending and receiving apparatus.

SERIOUS ACCUSATIONS
COUsIN OF DEAF STUDENT TELLS
HOW INITIATION TOOK PLACE.
Also Declares that Those Participat-
ing I'm 1t Should BE Sent to
the GallOws.

NEW YORK. Nov. 10.-Dr. Leopold
~Hirschmann, of this city, a cousin OF Mar
tin Loew. a medical student, whose death
occurred recently at Baltimore soon after
his initiation into a Greek letter fraternity,
says he has received details of the affair
from a fellow-student. The latter declared
that when Loew went to the fraternity hall
to take the first degree he was met by TWEEN
ty-five men. He was told TO undress, and
after doing so was blindfolded and taken
into a room, where he was laid on a cake
of ice. He was then carried upstairs to the
balcony and thrown over the rail-a drop of
twenty-five feet. On the floor beneath stood
a number OF students holding a sheet.
when Loew fell into this said the doc
tor, he was tossed up and down and was
unconscious. After being revived he was
beaten until his body was a mass of
bruises. That night he was In such a
wretched condition that his roommate
stayed up all night with him. Whisky and
quinine were given to him during the night,
and I'm the morning he felt relieved.
THE following Saturday he took the sec
ond degree. In the morning he was found
DEAD. and his chum, who had just taken the
first degree. was In a serious condition. The
guilty ones should be sent TO the gallows.
They are murderers."
