st. Petersburg, Dec 27.-With the

effort is being made, with influential
I official backing, to compel the author
tiles to make inquiry into the naval

of dishonesty in providing warships

ARMY MEN UNEASY
Officers Fear Enactment of Law Pro-

Would Work Injustice General Car
ter's Report.

Chicago. Dec 27.-In his annual re-
port Brigadier General William H.
Carter, commander of the department
of the lakes, speaks of noticeable
feeling of unrest among officers of the
regular army stationed within the de-
partment His report says:
During the last year my attention
has been frequently attracted by what
may be termed serious spirit of un-
rest among the officers. brought on
mainly by public discussions of pro-
posed measures for the elimination and
promotion by selection. However de-
sirable may be the measures designed
to bring about a selection of those best
qualified for advancement, or the pre-
vention Of promotion for those believed
to be unfit for further command, the
army is certainly against their enact
ment. The impression has been forced
upon me that the officers as a body,
particularly those of the line, while
recognizing the desirability of provid-
ing for exceptionally meritorious men,
are unwilling to trust their careers to
a board of officers who, Of necessity,
must base their conclusions upon per-
sonal acquaintance or efficiency
reports, which latter are not regarded
as accurate indexes of either character
or qualification"

killing of the negro named Calvin
Nicholson is reported as zone of the

the posse was searching for negro

GUILTY DOUBLE" IS PRODUCED
Society Woman's Likeness to a Beau

Arrest-Was Imprisoned With Dis
soIute Females-GuiIty Party in Gus

New York, Dec. 27.-One of the
Of mistaken identity ever brought be-
fore the courts of this city reached its
climax today, when the victim, Mrs. AL
exander Trautman, wife of prominent
physician, was, on her alibi, discharg-
ed after hearing in the police court.
A moment after Mrs. Trautman had
been given her liberty her accuser, Pc
ter j. Hogan, a clerk, was placed un-
der arrest on charge of assault, pre-
ferred by Mrs. Trautman. In support
Of her charge that Hogan treated her
roughly when he caused her arrest, she
barred her arm and showed the magis-
trate black and blue marks where she
said Hogan had seized her.
The evidence against Mrs. Trautman
was of SO fiimsy a nature that Magis-
trate Finn dismissed the complaint
without even the formality of bringing
the most important witnesses into the
court room. TINS witness, who was an
unwilling one, is known as Kittie VIII
son. She is almost perfect double"
of the woman who was accused. Kitty
is known to the police and the fact OF
her remarkable resemblance to Mrs
Trautman was recalled soon after the
investigation charge made by Hogan
was begun AS a result of the search
by the police the missing double" was
taken into custody today and dpring
the arraignment she was in small
room adjoining the court room. The
necessity of taking her before Hogan
was removed, however, when Magis-
trate Finn, after hearing the testimony
of the accuser and accused, said there
were no grounds whatever for holding
Mrs Trautman and directed that she
be honorably discharged.
Mrs. Trautman was arrested Christi
mas eve in front of the Fifth Avenue
store. The case attracted wide atten-
ton because of the social prominence
of Mrs. Trautman and as showing the
indignities to which an innocent wom-
an may be subjected on the accusation
Of persons who may or may not be
responsible. Hogan, who is a clerk,
seized Mrs. Trautman roughly by the
arm while she was looking at show
window. He asked if she knew him.
and threatened her with physical vio-
lence, and ended by calling on po-
liceman to arrest her.

Movement lnausurated to Secure Rec

Safety Appliances in Industrial In
stitutions and on the RaiIways-Ac-
cident and Negligence Responsible.

New York, Dec. 27-Important steps
are soon to be taken in this city and
elsewhere to establish a system of
compulsory and accufate records OF
the enormous number of persons who
are annually killed and injured in
Americas vast army of industrial
workers. In New York City alone the
meagre records obtainable are start
ling. In 1904 there were 4.162 persons
killed in New York City, thru accident
and negligence, as shown by the re-
ports of the department of health. AMI
these reports are said to be incomplete.
For two weeks beginning January
% an exposition will be held in the
American museum of natural history.
in this city. under the auspices of the
American institute of social service, for
the purpose of studying and exhibiting
safety devices for dangerous machin-
cry, methods of industrial hygiene ana
to set in motion a movement to es-
tabl1sh more accurate records of indus
trial fatalities and accidents in all
parts Of the country.
At present, Wisconsin is said to be
the only state in the union where any
effort is made for official compilation
OF these statistics. DR.. Josiah Strong.
president of the American institute Of
social service, in speaking of the num-
ber of persons killed each year in our
industrial occupations, made some as
tonlshine comparisons. He said
We, in the United States, kill in
four years some $4,000 persons, more
than fell in battle and died Of wounds
during the four years of the civil
war. We are killing more than twice
as many every year as perished by
violence in both the French and Eng
lish armies during the three years of
the Carmean war. There are more kill
ed and wounded on our railroads every
year than the entire losses of the Boer
war on both sides in three years. We
have industrial casualties enough ev-
cry year to keep one conflict like our
war with Spain going for 1900 years,
or twelve such wars going one hum
dred years. Our peaceful vocations
cost more lives every two days than
were lost in battle during the entire
Spanish war. From the best statistics
obtainable / may say there are today
$4,000 persons in the United States
under sentence of death to be executed
at an unknown moment during the next
ten years, 1.100 next week. and the
same number every week until the
CHASTITY work is complete. Intelligent
and earnest effort would procure re-
prieve of multitude of these innocent
victims"

afternoon.
According to the statement Of
Maxson, his train stopped an hour at
Lancho. and while there, rumors were
warpath, and that the few people in
the neighborhood of the station and
railroad were in danger. Station Mas
ter Thompson belittled the matter, and

The party stopped few minutes in the
hope that the survivors might be
