Of the circuit, 1t having been voted
at the afternoon session to keep the

Dodge was the only town in doubt, and
for it's franchise or any that may later
be relnquished, Quincy has filed an
application. Both Clinton and Musca-
tine were also desirous of obtaining a
franchise, but did not file an applica-
ton.
This seasons schedule will be lon
ger by fourteen games than was last

General News.

New York, Jan. 10.-Seven surviv.
ors of the ill-fated Norwegian ship
Marpesia. which was wrecked at sea
Christmas day by an explosion Of
naptha, resulting in the death OF
eleven members Of the crew, arrived
here today on the steamer Trinidad,
from Bermuda. They had been res
cued by the Danish steamer Gallia,
which happened by just at the moment
when the Marpesia was blown into q
shapeless mass, and seven men who
survived the shock were taken from
the sea where they had sought refuge.
The Marpesia sailed from New York
for France December 8 with a cargo
Of naphtha and had been out only a
day or two when her troubles began.
One gale succeeded another, but all
were weathered in safety until Decem-
ber IL. On that day the ship was bait
tered and knocked about in a merci-
less manner. Her ventilators were
carried away at the decks and her
hold began to fill and the cargo of cas-
es of naphtha began to warp back and
forth with every movement Of the
vessel. Soon the cases began to give
way under the strain, and in q little
while the freed naphtha was floating a.
round on top of the water in the hold.
Gas from the fluid accumulated stead
lily and by Christmas day the Mar
peria was loaded bomb, needing only
the slightest spark to blow the whole
structure to atoms. How the spark
reached the highly charged hold never
will be known. but suddenly there
came terrific report, the forward
deck shot into the air with crash
and roar and in a moment the entire
ship was wrapped in flames. Those
of the eighteen men on board who had
not been caught In the firs burst
threw themselves over the side of the
flaming ship into the sea. They We're

death had not the Gallia, which chanc-
ed to be in the vicinity come down
quickly to their aid when she saw the
burst of flames.

TO INVESTIGATE

House Committee on Interstate Com
merce Favors ShackeIford Resolution
Asking for Investigation of Panama
Railroad company-lts Peculiar
Tranactions.
Washington, Jan. 10.--The house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce today authorized a favorable
report on the Shackelford resolution
providing for examination by that
committee of the affairs Of the Pana-
ma Railroad Company. Shackelford
said it was known that the railroad
was maintaining offices in New York
City at an expense of 100000 a year.
1t is known to members of the COM
mittee that in 1903 the directors Of the
road had declared dividend OF be-
tween 100000 and 100000 in excess
of net earnings. The resolution recites
that the United States is now owner
of more than SO per cent of the shares
of capital stock of the company and 1t
is for that reason expedient that con-
gress should have full knowledge OF
the affairs of said company.
