MASSACHUSETTS CONVICT
TELLS A STRANGE STORY
Albert Steiner Sent to Prison for Highway Robbery Committed
When Records Show He Was at Work.

TRENTON, N. J., Oct. 4.-Officials
of the American Bridge company are
interesting themselves in the case of
Albert Steiner, former employe, who
went under the name of Charles Lew
is, and who was sentenced to a term of
ten years in the Massachusetts state
prison at Charlestown. Steiner claims
that his arrest and conviction is one
of mistaken identity, and the officials
of the bridge company here are inclin-
ed to believe his story
An investigation will be made at
once, and If Steiner's story is found
to be true an effort will be made to
secure his pardon.
For more than a year past, up to
Aug 22 of this year, Steiner was en-
ployed at the American Bridge works
in this city. On the latter date he
drew $29.50 on account and went away
for a few days trip. The next heard
of him was letter to j. Henry Kelin,
the company's paymaster, saying he
had been arrested on Aug. % on
charge of highway robbery alleged to
have been committed on Aug. 1S, on
which day Steiner, according to the
companys records here, was working

foundation than it had before the
cyclone.
A revision of the fatality list shows
the number of dead remaining at seven.
The Pike boy reported killed was only
injured and will recover, while Jacob
Holm, farmer, reported injured, has
since died. This makes the death list
as follows:
JOHN EBBEN

p H. Brockway who had his skull
crushed and was reported fatally injured,
will recover.
S. Merrif1eld is to be added to the list
of severely injured He was carried 300
feet and was hurt internally.
At least 5000 people visited st.
Charles today, and more would have
gone had they been able to reach there.
The only way to get there from Winona
was to go out early this morning and
return late in the evening. The Great
Western road ran special excursion
train from Zumbrota, carrying 1,200
people into st. Charles. The rest drove
in.
Conservative estimates made today
place the total damage done in st.
Charles by the cyclone at $30O,000 Some
of the heaviest my be enumerated as
follows:
Siveley & Hendee $15, 900
st. Charles Furniture Co. .......... 5000
Williams & Ross ................. 5000

Very little cyclone insurance was
carried. In addition to the buildings
enumerated yesterday the Catholic
church was destroyed and the fire sta

in Trenton. Steiner requested an aff1-
davit from Mr.. Kelin setting out this
fact The affidavit was sent, but Stein
er writes back that before the affidavit
reached him the ten-year sentence was
imposed, despite his plea for delay.
Steiner claims also that the sentence
was made heavy because of other Of
fenses which he was alleged to have
committed.
Little is known of Steiner here out
side of his employment with the COM
pany, and the fact that he had served
a term in the New Jersey state prison
for an offense of which he says he was
also innocent.
The records of Chief Inspector Watts
office show that Charles Lewis, sixty
years of age, a machinist, giving Phil
adelphia as his residence, was arrested
on Sept. 10 last in New York on an in
dictment warrent issued by this city
charging him. in company with three
others, with breaking and entering
several houses in Brighton, Roxbury
and Dorchester He was brought to
Boston by Inspector Cronin, held in
$4,000 bonds and later sentenced to
state prison for not more than fifteen
nor less than ten years.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct 4-Robert
Dalton Burdine, a well known young
man, was murdered and w. D. Hayes,
his cousin, probably fatally hurt in
fight with negroes on the river front
this afternoon. The young men, who
are members of the Louisville Boat
club, left for a sail in the afternoon, ac-
companied by several fellow club mem
bers, and as they were passing Tow
Head island We're attacked by several
negroes, who threw Jumps of coal into

cupants started after the negroes,
chasing them into yard, where Will
Fletcher, colored, seized an ak and
struck Burdine over the head, killing
him instantly. Hayes attempted to Sc
cure the ak from the negro, but was
assaulted from behind and badly in
jured.
The police arrested four negroes, in

He MAKES PRINCES
Georgian Issues 700 Patents of
Nobility to His Friends.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. A man.
ufactory of ready-made princes has
been discovered by the czar.
The nest of royalty was not the
nursery of heirs to the throne for
which his majesty of all the Russias
has made so many preparations. 1t
was found in the province of Georgia,
ravaged for ages because of it's wom-
ems beauty, now dishonored because
its men are falsely ambitious.
Aristocrats here are surprised to
learn that, in Kutais, across the Cau-
casus, this mill that grinds out princes
has been in operation. Some of them
may arrive in America ready to ex-
change their hand made titles for an
American wife with wealth.
The court circle is alarmed at the
arrest of well organized band, whose
members have been carrying on a lu-
crative business by supplying numer-
GUS persons with ancient titles. These
princes" may be in New York turning
their fortunes with a hand organ or a
peanut grinder.
However, it is discovered that many
princes" have given their whole for
tunes for this patent, and among man
ufacturers Of patents are twenty-five
persons VINO nave written out patents
for themselves.
The czar, suspicious. issued a ukase
ordering investigation into the right
of the numerous Georgians to the title
of prince.
There are nearly $500 Georgians
bearing this title.
Ten years was given to those indi-
viduals to procure evidence of nobility
which would satisfy a commission Of
inquiry sitting in Tifiis.
AS few of the $500 had any evil
dence, a prince named Shavaridge be-
thought him of manufacturing patents
dating from the seventeenth century.
From all sides he and his companions
were bombarded with requests for pat
ents, and in a short year he had pre-
pared 700 patents written in the an
cient Georgian language on parch-
Inent, and beautifully stained with age.
Shavaridge and his friends are now
In Jail. and their destination Is Siberia.

In Short Run With Machine He
Injuries Nine Persons.

PARIS, Oct. 4.-George Perricot
made a record this week in short
trip in his masters automobile. He
went to Montreuil, suburb of Paris,
burning much alcohol on the way,
though he was running a petroleum
machine.
First he ran over and nearly killed
Jules Dorier at Place de Marche, Mon
treuil. Fifty yards further he ran over
a child of seven years. Returning to
Paris at the fortifications he smashed
a fruit peddler's cart, nearly killing the
owner.
Sweeping down Boulevard Voltaire at
a fifty-mile pace he struck the car
riage of Mr.. Leblanc at Rue Rendez-
vous, wrecl1ing it and fracturing the
coachman's skull. He didn't stop and
and in the next hundred yards knocked
down Mrs. Courtier, breaking one of
her thighs. Then the automobile
swerved and tried to climb tree on
the boulevard, throwing out and in
juring the drivers four guests.
The police took Parricot to the sta
ton in cab.

several of those who at first saved
themselves from immediate death lost
strength and sank. 1t was more than
an hour after the Hackley sank before
the Sheboygan hove within hailing
distance. The shouts of the floating
men attracted the attention of the SAIL
ors on the Sheboygan and every as
sistance was lent.
The officers of the Sheboygans feel
sure that they took aboard every per-
son afioat. Some of the persons who
We're rescued say that it is possible
that one or more of the eleven persons
may have escaped death. This view is
not given much credence by the
sailors of the Sheboygan.
The Sheboygan made into Fish
Creek when hope of rescuing other
persons seemed improbable. The res
cued persons Were so exhausted from
their struggle against drawing that
they were unable for some time to tell
anything about the wreck.
The persons saved by the Sheboygan
say that with the crashing away of the
upper work, all persons aboard the
Hackley ran on deck. Hasty prepara-
tions for a plunge into the water were
begun. but before any plans could be
carried out, the boat listed, turned
over and went down like rock
