STEAMER LOUISE is SAFE.
Arrives at Sandusky, o., After a Ter
rible Experience on Lake Erie
with All on Board

Sandusky, O., Sept. 9.-The fishing
tug Louise, which it was feared had gone
down with over 100 passengers in the big
storm on Lake Erie Monday, arrived here
safely early Tuesday from bennington,
Ont. The Louise started from here for
bennington early Monday morning, car
rying the Star baseball club of this city
and 100 excursionists. Rough weather
was encountered just outside the harbor,
but Capt. Hugh Declute decided not to
turn back. The boat plowed through
seas that had her decks awash half the
time, and everybody on board was sick
bennington was finally reached at noon.
At six o'clock the party started on the
return trip in even a rougher sea than
was encountered on the way over. After
terrific struggle with the waves, the
Louise got into the lee of Pelee island,
where she lay several hours. Then she
started across the lake for Sandusky in
a more moderate wind, but still heavy
sea. She arrived here at four o'clock
Tuesday morning with everybody safe
but sick
1T was the worst blow in my expert
ence," said Capt. Declute, "and have
been rough-weather sailor for the past
20 years."
Scores of the friends and relatives of
those on board the little vessel remained
on the docks all night in the greatest
anxiety.

Ing Persons-PrOsecution to
BE Pushed ut Once.

Washington, Sept. 10.-One of the per-
sons indicted Tuesday by the federal
grand jury in connection with the postal
investigation is George w. Beavers,
formerly chief Of the division of salary
and allowances. 1t is understood the
charge is conspiracy. Another Of the in
dictments is against August w. Machen

Beavers. The charge is conspiracy.
While the officials refuse to disclose
the names Of the four remaining persons
who were indicted, it is said that none of
them is or has been connected with the
post Office department and that one is a
man of some prominence. It was stated
at the city hall that the climax of the in
vestigation is to come shortly when a
person not connected with the depart
.ment but equally as we'll known as the
postmaster general himself undoubtedly
will be indicted for completely in the
post Office frauds. The grand jury began
hearing the evidence in this particular
case Wednesday and it is stated that
when a report is made it will in all prob
ability conclude the investigation in
Washington.

OBJECT TO A CHANGE.
Fiscal Policy of Joseph Chamberlain
Denounced by British Trades
UnlOnists.

Leicester, England, Sept. AT Tues
days session of the Trades Union con-
gress President Hornidge declared
Colonial Secretary Chamberlain's sug-
gested changes in the British fiscal policy
we're likely to be most detrimental to the
best interests Of the nation.
'Dabbling with the principles Of free
trade" he asserted, could do no good to
the country at present. The land laws.
said the president, caused two-thirds Of
the national misery. He advocated gov
eminent old-age pensions.
The following resolution was carried
with only two dissenting votes:
THAT this congress strongly con-
dennis the suggested change by Mr..
Chamberlain in our present fiscal policy
as most mischievous and dangerous to
the best interest of the people of tho
country and hereby pledges itself and
urges all other labor bodies to make
every effort to prevent such a change
being brought about"
The announcement of the vote was
greeted with loud cheers. The resolution
will be communicated to the colonial
secretary

fact, coupled with the assurances of the
porte that United States property and
people in Turkey are quite safe, has tend
ed to relieve the minds of President
Roosevelt and Secretary Hay from ap-
prehension of serious consequences.
The vigilance of the United States au-
thorities will not be relaxed, however,
and every precaution will be taken to
insure the safety and protection OF
American interests.
The president entertained at luncheon
Paul Morton, of Chicago, vice president
of the Santa Fe railroad system; Fran
els E. Leupp, of Washington, and Lieut.

Washington newspaper correspondent,
was appointed by the president several
months ago as commissioner to make
an Investigation Of alleged Indian frauds
In the Oklahoma territory. He has COM

Later in the afternoon Archbishop
Harty, who will sail very soon for Ma
Mia, paid his respects to the president
and talked with him about the situation
in the Philippine islands.
Colgate Hoyt, president of the Ohio
Society of New York, invited the presi-

Oyster Bay, L. l., Sept. 10.-President
Roosevelt is watching the developments
Of the situation in Turkey carefully but
without serious apprehension. The re-
ports made by Minister Leishman at
Constantinople are not disquieting in
tone. On the contrary the minister is in
clined to take an optimistic view of
the situation so far as this country is
concerned. The anti Christian outbreak
is serious, but 1t is not regarded as likely
that, through it, American interests or
American citizens will suffer. Admiral

lection to Americans and American in

COlOmbians, in Proposed New Canal
Treaty, Will Demand Sum

Bogota, Sept. 10.-The bill which
congress is now discussing, author
izing President Marroquin to ne
gotiate new Panama canal treaty with
the United States contains the follow
ing stipulations:
The perpetual use of the canal zone is
granted provided that at the expiration
of each 100 years the United States shall

beginning at 100000 and the rental at
$4OO.
The mixed tribunals in the canal zone
shall try suits between foreigners or be-
tween Colombians and foreigners.
The police and sanitary measures
shall be practically in charge of the
United States.
Twenty million dollars is fixed as the
price of the concession, besides the
rental (sum?) of $10,0OO,00O payable by
the canal company, in consideration of
Colombia's approval of the transfer of
shares.
AC IAN Odu oudl1 LII VI ears revert
to Colombia, but the United States may
buy it under valuation
A term shall be fixed within which the
canal must be begun and finished.
The contract shall provide for a
means to settle differences which may
arise between the governments during
the construction and execution of the
contract.
New York, Sept 10-According to
the latest reports received from Bogo-
ia, the Hay-Herran canal treaty is now
generally regarded in the capital as
dead and buried, and, it is declared, as
serts the Herald's Panama correspond
ent, that the United States might as
we'll turn seriously to negotiations with
Nicaragua.
Here on the isthmus the people have
lost all hope and it is felt that the only
chance of preventing the total ruin Of

forts of the isthmians to save them
selves in the near future.

patches from Berlin, but that the con-

that the British military attache at
Constantinople has not gone to Mo-

dispatch Monday. The British govern

The foreign Office has received noti-
fication Of the Beirut affair, but has
not heard anything on the subject of
the British consul there threatening to
ask Rear Admiral Cotton to land ma
rines.
Omcial VersiOn OF Affair.
Constantinople, Sept. "a consular
dispatch from Beirut, received at one of
the embassies here, states that a fierce
brawl occurred there Monday between
parties of Mussulmans and Christians.
1t was due to shot fred by Mussul-
man upon Christian employed at the
American college. The Christian was
wounded.
The fight broke out while the vail was
on board the United States cruiser
Brooklyn returning Admiral Cotton's
visit. In diplomatic circles here, the AZ
fair is regarded as being serious and a
renewal of the disturbances is feared.
An official version of the Beirut affair
telegraphed later to the Ottoman am
bassador abroad for communication to
the powers says that Christians were the
assailants, they having fired upon four
Mussulmans. A fight ensued during
which Mussulmans and Christians came
to the assistance of their respective COM
patriots. This, says the report, COM
PEELED the troops to intervene and they
succeeded in restoring order. Three SOL
diers were wounded and one was killed,
while one Christian was killed and one
wounded.
These figures evidently are incorrect,
as the rioters must have lost more heav-
lily than the military.
The British consul at Beirut imme-
diately after the riot called upon the vail
and threatened to ask Rear Admiral Cot
ton to land marines from the American
squadron In the event of the renewal of
the disturbances.
In official circles here the disturbances
are attributed to the arrival Of the Amer
lean squadron, and the belief is ex-
pressed that the Christians at Beirut are
endeavOring to bring about the landing
of marines from the warships.
