SCHOONER SINKS,

They Are Supposed TO Be the Corpses
Of the +HI-Fated Captain

CHATHAM Mass. oct. 1.-THE three
masted schooner which last night. at
clock ran ashore on the north bar,
short distance south OF the old haTbor
Hfe-saviug station. proves TO be the
British schooner Wentworth. Of Wind
sOr, n. s. All hands were lost.
When discovered by the ufe-saving
crew last night the surf was so high
that all attempts TO reach the unfor-
tunate vessel with the SURF boat were
abOrtiVe, and the stranded craft was
50 far from shore that the lines OF
the breeChea buoy would not reach. IN
der these circumstance the llfe-sayers
were obliged 10 wait until this morning
In the hope that the sea would fau
during the night. The vessel was in a
bad position, and 10 was feared that she
would break up before morning, and that
the crew would De lost.
At an early hour this morning two
bodies We're picked up on the shore, one
being that Of man and the other of
woman. They are thought 10 be- the
bodies of the captain and his wife.
Gale Blowing for Forty EIGHT Hours.
A terrific northeast gale has been blow
ing for foTty-eight hours and d fearful
sea was running at the time the Went
worth came ashore. The crew could not
be seem but a light was burning in the
cabin. once, however, a distress torch
was burned.
The life-sayers of the old harbor sta

sible 90 reach the vessel iu any surf

TaLus and shot line but it fell short.
Several other attempts 10 get a line
Co the doomed men failed, although the
old haTDOr life-saVeTs were assisted on
their efforts by the crews or the other
stations on the beach. AT one time dur

Shortly afterward shrek. supposed
20 be a woman's, was heard from the di-

Heved that the waves had gone by the
board.
About o'clock came the first init
nation that the doom of the schooner
was sealed in the washing ashore of d
portion of her stern, with the word
''Sti-.dsor- y. s." At dawn it was seen
that two or the masJs. the main and the
miZZeu. had fallen through the washing
away or the entire after part of the
craft Then IL was that the life-savers
gave up all hope of Tescuiug any OF
the crew and a patrol was at once be-

the bodies.

DAMAGING TESTIMONY.
A Small rire Occurred in the lro
quois Theater on the Opening
Night.

Chicago, Jan. 9-Sworn testimony
was given today that fire broke out in
the Iroquois theater the first night the
theater opened. This first fire only
preceded by few weeks the great
disaster which resulted in the loss of
hundreds of lives. Testimony regard
ing the initial blaze given by John
Bickles, a workman employed in the
construction of the theater. He said
he was in the basement the night the
theater opened. He heard loud re-
port and the flames came over the par
tition from the adjoining room. He
was told that some kind of gas tank
had exploded.
In the light of this evidence the rec
ord of testimony taken to date, shows
that there were two previous warn
ings to the Iroquois management be-
fore the catastrophe. The curtain man
ager has testified that there was fire
on the stage a week before the holo-
caust.

The Defense.
Washington, Jan. Ex-senator Reed
Smoot of Utah has filed an answer to
the protest against his being allowed
to retain his seat in the Ursted States
Senate in which he Says that the
charges that he is a polygamist and
that he is bound by oath or obligation
as member of the NYfmon Church
which is inconsisted WI / his oath ad-
ministered to him befa he took his
seat in the Senate are the spnIw charges
that could legally affect hi Sight to
remain in the Senate as representa-
tive from Utah. He denies specifically
the truth of these charges and after
giving the name Of his wife, declares
that he never had another wi.e and
never cohabitated with any nsler wo-
man. He refutes the statement that
there exists in the Mormon Church
circle OF fifteen which shapes the be-
lief and controls the conduct of the
members or that any one has the pow
er or authority or does encourage poly
gamous practices, and that violations
of the law in this respect are counte-
nanced or connived at. lie admits
that the first presidency and twelve
apostles control the spiritual and tenn
poral affairs of the church but not the
temporal affairs of the state or of the
members of the church. He also ad-
mits that the church made !. rule in

YESTERDAYS
BEAUTIFUL SNOW
Rather an Insignificant Affair
Came From the South.

Telegraphic news to the New Mexi-
can concerning the extent of yester-
days snow storm state that at Tor
rance, the terminus of the Santa Fe
Central but little snow fell. There was
a very cold wind from the north and
the weather was disagreeable. There
was slight fall of snow at Estancia,
hardly enough to cover the ground. At
Albuquerque about half an inch of
snow fell but south and west of that
city greater snow fall is reported.
North of Santa Fe at Tres Piedras and
along the Denver & Rio Grande Rail-
road about two inches of snow fell. At
Las Vegas it showed but little last eve-
ming.
Director Hardinge of the Weather
Bureau when asked by representa-
tive of the New Mexican concerning
yesterdays snow storm said:
1--WE can't say much about the origin
and development of the storm that
gave us yesterdays snow. 1t seems
that the forecast official at Denver,
from whom we get our New Mexico
forecasts, was somewhat in doubt
about the storm himself as his fore
cast for possibly rain or snow" indi-
Gated This Office is not in possession
of the latest information, but it is prob
able that low barometer came in un-
expectedly from the southwest, the
Gulf of California region, sometime
last Thursday, and developing as it
progressed to the northeast, and
brought some of the Pacific's moisture
with it. We have no stations, of
course, farther south and west than
San Diego, California, and as a storm
center sometimes moves quite rapidly
it could get into the section between
observations, as it were, and spring a
on the forecaster. The aver
age velocity of storms at this season
Of the year is about "a miles an hour.
BY this, mean the rate of progress
sion of the storm center. The weather
map of Thursday, the latest we have,
shows that this is what probably hap
pened. I'm afraid we did not get
enough snow to do much good as far
IS water supply is concerned, but as
FAR as relaxing peoples nerves is con-
cerned it will do great deal of good.
We only got thirteen hundredths of an
nch of water out of it and this is likely
70 evaporate entirely before getting
ntO the water supply"
