In All Preparatory COIIeges.

1.-THE idea is to be carried out by turning
over all the Catholic preparatory colleges
conducted Sby religious orders into free
high schools based on broader lines. The in
itiative in the movement was taken by DR..
David w. Hearn. president of St. Francis
Xaviers college of New York. The CO.
operation of the hierarchy, or bishops, is
necessary in order to gain money for the
support OF the schools, by endowments and
contributions. A special meeting OF the
bishops may be called to consider the mat
ter. Well known educational institutions
conducted by Jesuits, Augustinians, Bene-
dictines and Franciscans in all the large
cities of the country would be affected.
! The single feature which may cause DIM
culties is the desire of the religious orders
TO retain the management and direction OF
their schools. Al present the bishops as
! sumo toward them merely the attitude Of
! spiritual counselors and moderators. the
seat OF authority being at Rome
"Unquestionably free Catholic high
schools would mean a larger number OF
students and a larger scope OF work. In a
sense they would be enabled TO compeke on
a common basis with the public high
schools OF course there Is something TO
be said on the wisdom Of taxing the great
body Of people for high schools and higher
education in which only a comparative few
enjoy and reap the beneht Further dis
cussion OF the subject must walt on the
return Of President Dowling."

N LINE WITH CREIGHTON
Free Catholic High shOOl Plan Same Policy
as in Omaha University.
LATTER WOULD NOT Be AFFECTED BY II
Father o'COnnOr Says Such q National
system Would Enable Catholics
to Compete with the
Public Schools.

President Dowling of Creighton Univer-
sity has not returned from New York,
where ne went as a delegate for the west
ern province of the Jesuits to the annual
meeting of the Roman Catholic Educational
association, which laid plans for free
Catholic high school system throughout
the United states. He is expected the latter
part of the week. Concerning the plans
Vice President O'Connor said:
"The action is consistent with the policy
of the officers of Creighton university, but
am not familiar with the details. AS is
well known Creighton is an endowed insti-
tuition and from its inception has been free
to students in the preparatory and classi-
cal courses. Fees are required in the later
additions of medical, law and dental col
leges to meet current expenses, but they
are light and similar to those at state
universities. What would correspond with
high school and academical training always
has been free at Creighton. The execution
of the plan approved by the educational
association would have no effect upon
Creighton because the object sought Is
reached here"
The plans under which the system OF
high schools is TO be inaugurated need only
the appreciation of the American hierarchy.
This, in order to get the financial aid nee
essary for the endowment required, is
estimated to aggregate t2,bOO,00O.

AT present there are twenty-one men

TELLS OF EXPLOSION.

Captain Young, when asked if he had
formed any theory regarding the ex-
plosion. replied:
About all I can say is that the boil
ers exploded. Just what caused them
to do this I do not know. They We're
tested to stand a pressure of 22J pounds
and the steam gauge at the time of the
explosion showed but rs pounds. The
crown sheets of the forward boiler on
the port side We're blown out first and
went through the bulkhead and explod-
ed the second boiler. There We're two
distinct explosions very close together -

STIRRING STORY OF THE
BENNINGTON DISASTER

afraid to enter, unwilling to go away
and striving hard to be content with
the plimpses of the dead as they were
carried in One of them, very pretty
young girl of probably nineteen years
of age, sobbed Historically as the am
bulance doors were opened, and gazed
at the stretcher, but she did not offer
to 90 away. Inside, the same scene
was repeated. Twelve sheeted figures
Law in a long row: many of them were
unidentified and the faces were expos
ed. Nine of the men looked as if death
found them in their sleep. Their faces
were peaceful and free from the traces
of pain.
All had been scalded save one, and
there was an ugly wound on top of
his head. For him there had been no
pain and no lingering agony.
Men and women passed up and down
this grizzly line, bending over and look
ing longingly at the dead faces.
GIVE got Ensign Perry in here, y
said man in white apron.
'Want to see him2'
Six newspaper men trooped into the
little stone foored room. There was
sickening odor of disinfectants in the
place, that sweetish smell which ling
ers long on the memory. The man in
the apron slowly unwound towel and
lifted the last covering.
A grizzled old veteran of the press
was first to speak. There was that
about the tortured face which made it
hard to speak of the way this brave
man died.
He died like. hero said the vet
eran, slowly. ''God rest his soul to-
night.
At 8 o'clock there were thirty-nine
dead men in the various undertaking
establishments, and seven men are
known to be in one of the closed
compartments. This brings the known
total up to forty-six dead and does
not include the missing men. The hos
pitfalls are full of sufferers, many of
whom will surely die before morning.

As early as it was possible for men
to go telow. willing hands were turn
ed TO the work o. rescue. Twice bands
of brave workers were forced to aban-
don their sickening task and come
above decks by the inflow of water
that filed the engine and boiler rooms.
Every pump was set to work to lower
the water. The offer of Mayor Sehon
to lend aid was accepted to the extent
of fire engine, which was loaded up
on lighter and run alongside the Ben
nington, where it is to be used to pump
out the vessels engine rooms.
The rescuers faced a terrible spec
tacle beneath the main deck in the
forward part of the vessel. Here the
crew s quarters are located, and here,
too, the greatest loss OF life occurred.
Many of the crew were in quarters, some
swinging comfortably in their ham,
moeks. Dead and injured were taken
out of this section to, the number of
almost two score-just how many no
one took the time to count.
With remarkable promptness the vic
Tins We're conveyed ashore in launches
and turned over to the waiting ambu-
lances. Only about a dozen men were
killed outright by the force of the ex-
plosion, and three lost their lives from
flying debris. One of these latter was
almost beheaded by some heavy OBJ
ject.
Fifty-four were taken directly to the
Agnew Sanitarium eleven of whom
were subsequently removed to st.
Joseph s Sanitarlum. Eleven were con-
.veyed to the old military barracks
only a few blocks from the landing
place. where they We're attended by
DR.. Kneedler, the army surgeon, and
a corps of assistants.
At Agnew Sanitarium were gather
ed scores of physicians and an army
of nurses, volunteer as well as profess
sional.

ROLL CALL SHOWS CASUALTIES.

just before noon Commander Young
ordered a roll call on board the Ben
nington. 1t showed sixty-one present,
leaving 1876 unaccounted for. These
included the dead, injured and missing.
Commander Young believes some of the
missing men were drowned and that
their bodies will be found in the bay.
