FrghtfuI Disaster on United States

Heroes and Dependents.
The awful disaster to the battleship
Petropavlovsk, which was sunk
through contact with a stray 'mine
Wednesday, at Port Arthur with the
loss of almost her entire crew of over
700 men and the death of Vice Ad-
miral Makaroff, has been most ter
rife blow to the Russians 1t would
have fallen less heavily If the
ship and the commandments OF
the fleet had been lost in battle,
but to be the result of another acci-
dent following upon the heels OF
succession of tragedies of which the
Port Arthur fleet has been the victim,
it has created something like conster-
nation.
"Reverses we can endure" said a
prominent Russian. "but to have the
Petropavlovsk meet the fate OF the
Yenesei and the Boyarin is heart
breaking"
Besides. it has just become known
that the battleship Poltava several
weeks ago had hole rammed in her
by the battleship Sevastopol while
the latter was maneuvering in the har.
Dor of Port Arthur.
Admiral Makaroff made three visits
to the United States, the first in 1867.
He made tour from California to
New York in 1896 and in March, 1898.
made flying trip to Detroit. He left
New York March &c of that year to
assume command Of Russias Baltic
squadron.
The deceased admiral had frequent
ly lectured on the construction OF
warships, which made him famous in
naval circles throughout the world,
and was the author of book entitled,
Discussion of Difficult Questions of
Naval Tactics"

The crew of the boat arrived last
evening. and the cargo that was on her
at the time. Pilot Billy Oyerstreet
gave an account of how the accident
happened.
The wreck has always been covered
with sand. and was not dangerous.
II seems the current had shifted the
sand, however, and uncovered the old
wreck. and the boat struck it. The
lick was not hard. but the weight Of the
boat itself was sufficient to stave a hole
in her side.
II is not certain what the wreck Is.
Some say il is of the Emma, wrecked
about thirty years ago. Some say il Is
the wreck of the Phantom. which blew
up about the time of the war and killed
several people, and was a menace to
navigation for some time until IT had
III been removed, or at least was all
bought to nave been removed,
Capt. Ryman came up from the wreck
his morning. and will remain. about

WILL DESERT HOCH

Oscar 2. Smith, of Wichita,
who was delegate to the nation
al Republican convention and
who is the member of the Re-
publican state central com mittee
from Sedgwick county, has bolt
ed E. w. Hoch and has come out
for Judge David NJ. Dale, for
governor.
This is the first republican of
any great prominence who has
come out against Mr.. Hoch.
There has been opposition to
others on the state ticket, and
some of the rank and file have
declared that they will not vote
for the Marion man. Mr.. Smith
is the first one of prominence to
make this declaration. He has
been a republican all his life,
He voted for General Grant
when he became of age, and he
has voted for every Repub lican
candidate for president since
that time. On local issues Mr..
Smith sometimes has bolted re-
publican candidates, but Mr..
Hoch is the first candidate of
the party for governor that he
has refused to support, unless it
was governor ST. John, who fore
ed his candidacy for a third term
in 1882, His opposition to Mr..
Hoch is not on account of the
latter's prohibition record. He
may object to that and it may in
tensify his opposition, but the
ground upon which be puts his
