BURNED TO WATERS EDGE.
Railroad Freight Steamer Destroyed by
Fire-One Life Lost.

NEW YORK, November 1S.-While bound
down Long Island sound on one of her regu-
lar passages between this city and New
London Conn, the freight steamer Mo-
hawk of the Central Vermont railroad, took
fire off Horizons point, l.. l., and was burn
ed to the waters edge early today. Her
crew except the watchman, was rescued by
a passing steamer and taken to Fall River
Mass 1t is believed the Mohawk will be a
total loss and that little if any of her cargo
will be saved.
The Mohawk left New York last evening
with a full cargo of general merchandise.
She had twenty-five persons on board in
Guiding two women. AS the steamer passed
Horizons point the lighthouse keeper saw
flames breaking from the boat and few
minutes later she was wrapped in flames.
Assistance was near at hand in the form of
the Fall River line steamer Boston. which
had closely followed the Mohawk down the
sound and those on board the burning
steamer, with the one exception noted, were
soon taken off.
The Mohawk was a comparatively new
steamer, having been built at Chester, Pa,
in 1896. She was of 2,15O net tons; 26o feet
in length, 43 feet beam and 1853 feet deep.
The steamer Boston brought twenty-seven
persons from the Mohawk, including twen-
ty-five of the crew and two women, wives
of officers of the Mohawk. The night watch
man of the steamer, a Swede named Lar
sen, was lost 1t is supposed he was burned
to death.
The Mohawk's cargo included nearly 1000
barrels of sugar, a large quantity of baled
rags besides oil and gasoline.

TRAGEDY IN MICHIGAN
MAN AND WOMAN WERE FOUND
LYING DEAD IN A BUGGY.
Both Shot Through the Head-Believed
to Be Case of Murder and
Suicide.

DETROIT, Mich, November 1s.-Two
night policemen in Wyandotte. twelve
miles down the river from Detroit, early
today discovered a horse and buggy stand
ing at the corner of Fourth and Oak
streets with II. J. Hillebrand and Mrs. w.
J. Miller of Detroit lying dead in the
buggy.
Both were shot through the heart, and 1t
is considered by the authorities to be a
clear case of murder and suicide Whether
Hillebrand or the woman fired the shots
is unkonwn.
A letter found on Hillebrand's person,
written him by the woman while he was
in Chicago a short time iago, told of an
intimacy between the two and warned
Hllebrand that he must be careful of her
husband, who, she said, had threatened to
shoot him if he returned here.
Both bodies were slightly warm when
taken to the undertaker's, soon after their
discovery, indicating that the shooting took
place a comparatively short time before
they were found.
Hulebrand was a harkeeper. Mrs. Miller
had been married only year and a half.
Her husband says he believes her refusal
to elope with Hillebrand caused him to
shoot her and commit suicide. Miller says
his wife told him Stnat Hillebrand had
threatened her life once before when she
refused to accompany him to Chicago.

A PLACE FOR CoCKRELL.
Current Rumor Makes Him Successor
to Commissioner Black.

1t was rumored IN official circles today
that Senator Cockerell of Missouri. when he
retires from the Senate, will be appointed
civil service commissioner, to fill a vacancy
to be caused by the transfer of Gen. John
c Black of Illinois to the commissionership
of pensions.
There is said to be no question that the
President intends to give Senator Cockrell a
congenial billet if he desires to remain in
public life, and 1t is thought that the civil
service place would be very acceptable to
him. In his case it would be life position,
for no administration would remove him.
and he could wind up his days in the har-
ness If he desired to do so.
Senator Cockrells friends say that he
would probably prefer to keep at work at
something. He has been a busy man all his
life, and the best part of 1t has been spent
In the public service. He does not know
anything else. they say, and would not be
happy II he was not engaged-i in some official
work. Like the late Sena tor Hoar Senator
Cockrell worked hard in Congress. and was
too busy to find time to amass a fortune,
so that comfortable berth in his old age
may not come amiss.

ExHoRTATIoN TO YOUNG MEN.
Senator Scott Discourages the Scramble
for Government Jobs.
nec,al nisnaich to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
WHEELING, w. Va, November 1S.-
Senator Scott of West Virginia Is out In
an exhortation to the young men OF West
Virginia to abandon the elusive dreams
of political Office and to seek other means
of getting their bread and butter. In CIV
ing this advice the senator is sincere, and
incidentally he relieves himself of the
impatience he feels at the constant appli-
cations for jobs that surround him every
time he takes trip through the state.
II am besieged with applications from
all sorts Of classes" he declares, asking
for appointments at washington In the
public service, and what not. That is the
most trying part of a mans public career
attempting to satisfy his constituency
The number of men getting along pretty
we'll in business life who want to forsake
it and take up some offiee. whether lucra-
tive or not simply because they nave
ture to take care of itself. is surprising.
They do not look beyond and figure on
changes of administration, when they
will be ousted into private life again.
MY advice to all young men in West
Virginia is. scatter to the winds all ideas
of securing employment under the gov
ernment but get out in the busy world.
where you can touch elbow to elbow with
busting humanity. Don't coop yourself
up in musty government office at bare
living salary and permit; alfyo energies
to remain dormant.
When the government employees hav'
to go out into the world again they have
but slight business experience outside of
the dull routine of ONCE and have habits
which unfit them for yocatfons requiring
energy and close application"
1t is not expected that Senator Scott's
sage injunction will. materially diminish
his troubles with his constituents.

ington Woman.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa, November 1s.-
Mrs Mary Bonine of No. 5142 Market
street, this city, committed suicide early
this morning by cutting her throat. An
erroneous report soon afterward gained
circulation to the effect that the dead wo-
man was Mrs. Ida Bonine, who three
years ago was tried in Washington and
acquitted on the charge of numbering
James Seymour Ayres, who was found
dead In his room in the Hotel Kenmore, in
that city.
The mistaken identity of the Philadel-
phia suicide today is ytraceable to the re-
marks made to neighbors of the Bonines'
some weeks ago by a salesman who can
vassed that section of the city with an
assortment of household utensils After
having stopped at the Bonine residence the
salesman declared that he recognized the
Philadelphia woman as Mrs. Ida Bonine Of
Washington. Gossipers took up the rumor,
which together with the suicide proved
highly sensational for time this morning.
Since her acquittal Mrs Bonine has re-
sided in this city, and today was seen by a
Star reporter at her home. She was in
good health, and could, give no explanation
Of the mistaken identity of the suicide in
Philadelphia She had no relatives in that
city, she said.

rell Of Missouri

Former Secretary Root arrived in Wash

to attend the ceremonies of the unveiling
of the Frederick statue. Speaking of the
recent election, Mr.. Root paid tribute to
Senator Cockrell Of Missouri.
Il suppose" he said, that the republi-
can legislature of Missouri is bound to
send a republican to the United States
Senate, but 1 would be pleased If PARTISAN
ship could be forgotten long enough to re-
tain the public service of a man who is as
deserving as Senator Cockrell. His long
experience, his ability. his industry and at
tention to business, his high sense of pub
lie duty and his standing as citizen
makes him an invaluable public official.
AS a republican, opposed to him in politics,
I can say that 1 sincerely regret that the
government is to lose man like Senator
Cockrell."
