IDENTIFY returning TO Vladivostok There Is
possibility that they have destroyed other small
craft. although no reports to that effect have
been received. The object OF their visit is not
clear 1t is thought that probably they hoped
to torpedo the Japanese patrol at night.
1t is also suggested that the larger Vladi-
vostok vessels are planning a diversion to as
sist the fleet of Admiral Rojestvensky. It is
doubted that the torpedo boats would venture
across unescorted in the heavy sea which was
running.
All the crew of the burned vessel succeeded
in landing but steamer dispatched to the

committed suicide in NewYork, is a full sister
of Olivia Parker, the negro to whom she
left all her property. The story of the Parker
woman, who has never tried to associate with
any but negroes, is borne out by that of others
who knew the two while they were children.
The story of the life of Mrs. Gray as learned
here is a remarkable one. According to the
story she met Mr.. Gray while she was a servant
in the family of one Of his relatives. Ne fell in
love with her and finally married her Whether
or not he ever learned the secret of his wife's
blood is not known here. They continued TO live
together until his death. and ne left her his fort
une. Beyond an occasional letter to her sister,
in which she told of the luxurious life she was
