object the maturing of plans for deposing

WENT DOWN WITH MS SHIP.
Survivors Tell OF the Death OF Commander
OF the COmte de Smet dc Mayer.

SpeCldl CGOle DeSpdICh 10 lub Sun,
HAMBURG, April 29.-The survivors Of
the Belgian cadet ship Comte de Smet de
Mayer, which foundered at sea, landed at
Cuxhaven and came to this city. Their
story shows that no storm or sudden squall
was responsible for the disaster, but that
it was due to a mysterious leak. which was
not noticed for some time, presumably or
account Of the cement in the cargo soaking
up the water. When 1t was noticed it was
too late.
All hands were called to the pumps,
but the hand pumps failed and then the
steam pumps gave out. AS the water rose
in the hold the ship set signals OF distress,
which were unavailing. When it was
finally decided to abandon the ship great
difficulty was experienced in launching the
boats, the sea then washing over the decks
Two Of the boats we're sunk, but the
third got away with twenty-four persons
in her. Commander Fourcault, First Of
ficer Barns Van Suylen and Chaplain Kuy-
pers refused to leave. Each was at his
post when the ship broke in two and sank,
carrying them down with it. The last
seen Of the chaplain he was making the
sign of the cross.
The last words heard from the COM
mander were: One more cigarette-the
last" as he drew his cigarette case from
his pocket. The first officer was picked
up by the lifeboat after the ship sank, but
seeing that the boat was too heavily loaded,
he threw himself overheard and was
dro wned.

Mrs, Stanlcy's Charge Raises a Sharp
Issue In ia nSas Politics.

TOPEKA, Kan, April 29.-The Republican
party of Kansas finds itself tonight facing
the question shall Hoch be showed aside
and another man nominated or shall the
party carry out the programme agreed on
weeks ago and hand the Governor his second
nomination, Most of the members of the
party are demanding that Hoch stand pat"
and that his nomination be made by accla-
nation, just as has been the programme
since the Kansas day banquet.
One of the leaders in the State whose
opinion is respected above almost any
other in Kansas said tonight: There is
nothing else for the convention to do ex-
cept to nominate the Governor again. |
have too much faith in the Kansas people
to think that they would refuse him the
nomination, thereby casting a stigma on
him for life. Hoch is not an immoral
man. | would not for the world make the
slightest suggestion that Mrs. Stanley told
an untruth, but it should be remembered
that almost any man or woman is apt to
misconstrue a remark or an action.
"The people should remember that Gov.
Hoch is placed in a position in which few
men find themselves. Like a gentleman
that he is, he has not denied the statement
made by a woman. He can make no de-
fence, but simply allow the coming dele
gates to judge him"
There is some talk tonight that a cau-
Gus of all the delegates in town should be
held tomorrow afternoon to ak over the
situation. but this does not seem to find
any response, because no one here now
seems willing to father a move suggesting
that Hoch be defeated

Special Gable Despatch 10 The Sun,
PARIS, April 2s.-The only signs of any
thing unusual In Paris life to-day have been
the vast number Of uniforms among the
throngs on the boulevards and the unprec-
edented crush Of travellers at the railway
stations seeking to escape from the country.
Each ordinary train for London has been
supplemented with two extra trains and
the railways report that all travel records
were broken. Their facilities we're greatly
overtaxed and many passengers suffered
much discomfort from overcrowding.
The semi-panic spread also among the
Parisians of all classes, especially in the
matter Of the commissariat. There was
never such a demand for food Of all sorts.
The stocks Of canned goods in many places
were exhausted. Most provision shops
kept open all day. 1t was necessary in
several cases to form the customers into
lines outside the door to await their turn,
Several big establishments announced
that they would not undertake to deliver
goods to-morrow their present orders being
all they could handle. The customers were
obliged, therefore, to take away their pur-
chases in cabs.
Meantime there is still nothing known
which could justify this scare.
There is no disorder, and none is definitely
threatened. The strike will undoubtedly
develop into serious proportions, but there
is little danger of grave disturbances in
the early stages, especially while the great
military force is arrayed against the dis
orderly element NJ. Lepine, project Of
police, is one of the best men in the world
for dealing with this emergency, and it is
hardly probable that he will he obliged to
use more thar the ordinary police meas
ures in dealing with the present features
Of the movement.
The Sun correspondent, who came here
to-day from London, travelled in a half
empty train, but passed special after special
loaded with fleeing English and Americans
going in the opposite direction. All the
railway bridges for miles outside Of Paris
were guarded by double %sentries with fixed
bayonets.
The Temps congratulates Prime Minis
ter Sarrien for his liberal speech at Paray
le Monial. II feels compelled to say that the
Governments inertia during the late trou-
bled weeks has been the principal cause of
the alarm, which NJ. Sarrien seeks to allay

DIR. CRAPSEY STICKS TO 1T.
He Maintains That There Was No Virgin
Birth and No Ply steal Resurrection

'' ~ e'" w ~ t't'Vit'
ITHACA, n. Y, April 20. The Rev. AL
gernon S. Crapsey, whose trial on a charge
Of heresy was concluded Yesterday in
Batavia, delivered two sermons to-day in
Sage Chapel, President Schurman, ex-
President Andrew d. White and other
prominent Comedians being in the con-
grgation. In the morning he confined
his remarks to the birth Of Christ, maintain
ing that he came into tho world like any
other infant, without any divine attributes.
He developed, guided by an unknown in
ternal spiritual power, until he attained
perfection and became a real God.
In the afternoon DR.. Crapsey took for his
text The Resurrection of Christ" He
asserted that there was no physical resur-
r%ection, but one Of the spirit only, He said
in part:
"Nine-tenths of the tffk 81 the Resur-
rection is mere sounding brass and tinkling
cymbal. There is no more sense in the
talk OF most men about the Resurrection
than there would be in my talking about
differential calculus. You must remember
that in studying the Resurrection, the story
Of which is mere tradition and not history.
we are not dealing with physical facts in
a physical world; we are dealing with the
great mystery of the spirit, seeing Jesus
not with the actual eye, but with the souls
Of his followers, Peter did see Christ and
talked with Him. The spiritual world
came in the real world. The soul Of Peter
projected Jesus"
DR.. Crapscy explained that Peter had the
psychological state of mind necessary at
the time.

the train to a sudden stop and causing a
panic among the passengers. The boy
was turned over to the Gerry Society.
Late last evening the station house was
filled with persons who had come to bail
