Detectives familiar with the criminal
element will be stationed at the Ascot
race track for the purpose of learning
what criminals known to follow the
races are in the city. According to
Chief of Police Auble several of the
detectives working out of the central
police station are better acquainted
with the criminal element than de-
tectives in any other part of the United
States.
These will be detailed regularly for
service at the race track. AS soon as
the presence of a criminal becomes
known to the police he will be arrested
whether wanted for crime or not and
taken before Chief OF Police Auble and
ordered to leave town. If the criminal
is seen around again after having been
ordered out severer action will be
taken.
II propose to make this city the hot
test place on earth for criminals" said
Chief Auble yesterday. Life and
property are In more danger now than
ever before in this city. The hardest
class of criminals is operating through

BIG PRICES FOR SUGAR MEN
Hawaiian Planters Receiving Five
Cents a Pound and Resident of
Honolulu Saws Crop Is Larue

A. G. Lovekin, resident of Honolulu
for the last fifteen years, is at the
Lankershim hotel. Mr.. Lovekin is an
auditor for eight of the large sugar
companies of Hawaii, and came to this
country to recuperate, after an illness
caused by too strenuous application to
duties.
He states that the climate there is
delightful and equaled by the climate
of no state but that of California, but
that the American that goes there is
liable to work in the afternoon when
the native is taking his siesta, and
consequently cannot bear up as does
the Hawaiian.
According to his statements, the last
year has been a banner year for the
island. The sugar production is the
largest that 1t has been since the year
1899 and the price has been the highest
since 1897. Nearly all of the planters Sc
cured five cents pound for their sugar
which means profit to them of $45 q
ton.
Mr.. LoVekin expects to make his
home for some time in California
probably at San Diego, where he will be
joined by the members of his family
next spring, who have gone to New
England to spend The winter.

Chicago Reports Eight Vessels Lost
Many Lives Sacrificed
BY Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Nov. 29.-The storm on
the upper lakes, which brought death to
eleven and wrought untold havoc
among the sailing craft, had almost
subsidized tonight, and the work Of res
cue and relief to the numerous vessels
left stranded is being carried on with
the utmost vigor.
Up to midnight eight vessels repre-
senting a cost of $S13,00O, had been re-
ported as total wrecks, and there are
still about dozen or more vessels the
whereabouts Of which are unknown and
may have to be classed among the list
of vessels totally destroyed.
At least a score Of vessels have been
reported stranded but since the abate-
ment of the hurricane 1t is believed the
majority of these boats will be saved.
UP to the present time the total loss
to shipping caused by the storm is es-
timated at $1,5O0,000, and when the
final returns are in the figures will, in
all probability, be at least $2,O00OOO.

SULTAN FEARS
GENERAL REVOLT
OCCUPATION OF MlTYLENE
CAUSES ALARM
Rumored Porte About to Dismiss
Grand vizier, Which Is Taken
as Indication Of Yielding
to the Powers
BY Associated Press.

BULGARIA, Nov 29.-The occupa-
ton of Mitylene by the allied forces
has had no effect on the population of
Constantinople, which is celebrating
the Bairam festival but advices from
Adrtanople and Salonica report appre-
hensions of trouble in the event of the
prolongation of the present situation.
There has been an alarming increase
In the number Of murders of Bulgar-
lanS by Mussulmans in the vilayet of
Salonfca during the last few days.
Inc ambassadors are doubtful
whether they Will receive any further
subject of the demands of the powers
until the celebration of the Bairam
FESTIVAL is concluded.
The paragraph in the sultan's note
in reply to the ultimatum of the pow
erS containing warning that the ac-
t1on of the powers in resorting to a
naval demonstration might precipitate
an internal uprising against the Christ
ian population of Turkey, has created
no uneasiness here.
Well informed persons say that such
clause was to be expected. There
may be disturbances in the provinces
when the occupation of Mitylene be-
comes known but it is not likely that
anything serious will occur
The sultan Is too clever to permit any
act that might bring the fleet to Con-
Stantinople. 1t is again persistently
rumored that Ferid Pasha. the grand
vizier, is about to be dismissed. This
is taken to mean that the sultan is
seeking an excuse for giving way, a
change of policy being frequently pre-
ceded by change in the head of the
temporal government.

A GRAVEYARD RABBIT
Bunny Runs Into a City Club and
Creates Deal of Con-
sternation
Special to The Herald.


HUMBOLDT, Tenn, Nov. ga
pack of hounds was running a rabbit
over the fields and woods close to
town, and crowd of sport lovers were
enjoying the chase when the rabbit
came directly up the middle of Main
street and darted into the door of the
Gibsonian club and ran upstairs, much
to the amusement of the bystanders.
Some of the members of the club
declared it was a graveyard rabbit
and, for that reason, it was captured
and one of its feet will be hung in the
club building for a luck piece.
The negro porter was scared almost
to death by the rabbit, and as soon as
he was sufficiently recovered, hurried
from the building and handed in his
resignation to the secretary of the club
saying:
'Boss, Use dun wild dat job"
A vigilant search by the secretary
for another porter revealed the fact
that no negro was willing to take up
the work where the late porter left
off, although there was previously a
number of applicants for the place.

No details of the casualties or of

to the cofned space in which the ac-

The demands of the mutineers are
said to include the convocation of a
constituent assembly and the COM

Storm Does Great Damage to Shipping

Strange Manner

DULUTH, Mimi, Nov. 29.-The net
results of the great storm on Lake Su-
perior, as far as known, are the total
wrecks of the steamers Mataafa,
Crescent City, Edenborn and the La
fayette, the sinking of the Elwood In
Duluth harbor, the stranding of the
barge Manila and the steamer w. r..
England, the stranding of the Brans-
ford at Isle Royale, and two barges,
the Madeira and Constitution, missing.
The Bransford escaped with a punc-
ture in her forward compartment and
succeeded in reaching Duluth. A fire
man of the Lafayette was drowned and
the second assistant engineer of the
Edenborn was lost. Their names are
unobtainable.
President Coukby of the Pittsburg
Steamship company arrived at mid
night on a special train with much
wrecking apparatus, and an effort will
be made ia save some of the stranded
boats, among them the Manila. The
steel steamer Lafayette and the steel
barge Manila are on the rocks on the
mainland just north OF Encampment
island.
Crews Are Rescued
The entire crews of both boats with
the exception of a fireman, whose name
is unknown, were saved.
The Lafayette broke in two as soon
as she struck the rocks, but the two
vessels were so close together that the
men on the steamer were able to jump
from the stern to the Manila.
In making this Jump to the Manila,
one of the firemen on the Lafayette
slipped and fell into the water and dis
appeared. The escape from the Manila
of both crews was an easy matter. The
vessel was so close to shore that the
branches of several trees hung down
over the deck. The sailors, taking hold
of branches, pulled themselves up, and
in this way they reached the land.
The Lafayette is practically total
wreck. The Manila is in good condition
and may be saved.

MIDSHIP MAN IS
HEARTBROKEN
MERIWETHER WOULD PREFER
DEATH
Naval Cadet Takes Witness Stand in
His own Behalf and Tells Of
Fights Which Caused
Branch's Death
BY Associated Press.

lDy ASSOCldlSu HEeSSs
ANNAPOLIS, Md, Nov. 29.-Midship-
man Meriwether took the witness stand
in his own behalf today. His story
of the trouble between himself and
Midshipman Branch did not differ sub
stantially from the testimony of pre-
vious witnesses. He told Of having had
fight with Midshipman Humphreys
In 1904, In which the latter knocked out
the witness.
Meriwether's counsel then asked him
about his refraining from hitting
Branch during the fight, although al
lowed to do so under the rules. The
witness told of two instances of this
explaining that he did not believe any
blows should be struck in a stand-off
fight unless men are on their feet. He
also told how he fouled and offered to
give UP the fight, but the seconds
would not allow it.
After the quarrel with Branch" said
he, "Midshipman McKittrick came to
my room and told me that he had been
appointed Branch's second to arrange
fight
II wanted Jaeger as my second. The
details were then arranged. During the
fight we first fell under the blinds.
About the twelfth round I rushed
Branch and we both fell sideways
through the door.
Meriwether Was Stunned
"The next round Branch hit me a
terrific uppercut. 1t stunned me for
some rounds. 1 returned to his jaw.
He threw his head back and returned,
but swung my arm around his neck.
We fell in that position, his head strik-
ing the floor. We were lifted up. My
arm could not be used for the next
two rounds. My left arm was crushed
in a football game about three years
ago. / had a severe operation but failed
physically. However, passed the next
year.
1.-THE arm is still weaker than the
other"
Meriwether then showed deep scar
on the wrist of the left arm. He said
silver plate had been put in there.
Would Have Preferred Death
cat the end of the twenty-third
round" he continued, Branch came
across the room and we both apollo
gized and he said: "Afterward we will
be friends" He then left and 1 have
never seen him since. We parted
as friends.
"I could not go to breakfast the next
morning. / had to go to the hospital.
An orderly came and said that there
was a man unconscious in the hall. He
was brought to the hospital that night
and DR.. Ames told me that Branch was
doing we'll. About o'clock the next
afternoon I was told by nurse that
Branch was dead.
II requested an official investigation
by the superintendent. / was grieved
beyond expression. I think that Mr..
Branch was indeed more fortunate in
being in his place, in going to sleep
and not waking up, than to be in mine
and have to live this life after this
sad and deplorable affair.""
