WATER MAIN BURSTS
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS OF
PROPERTY DAMAGED.

NEW YORK, October 31.-Thousands of
dollars worth of property was damaged
and many lives were endangered early to-
day when a 36-inch water main burst In
9Sth street between Broadway and Amster-
dam avenue. For more than three hours
great flood of water from the broken main
poured Through neighboring streets, filling
Easements and washing out curbings. Many
persons occupied Easements and lower
apartments in the streets which temporar-
fly were converted into rivers and were
awakened by water pouring into their
sleeping rooms. and in several instances the
only avenues of escape left them were rear
windows.
The main broke with loud report, and
almost instantly volume OF water spurted
fifty feet into the air. By the time a force
of officers had reached the scene a section
of 9Sth street, more than twenty feet in
length and extending from house to house
on either side, was under five feet of water.
An alarm of fire brought half a dozen fire
companies to the scene, the men devoting
all attention to rescuing the occupants Of
ba sements which were rapidly being filed.
When the work had been completed the
firemen and employees of the water depart
ment began systematic tour of that sec
ton of the city, shutting off the water in
every main in an effort to check the flow
of water through the broken pipe. Their
efforts were rewarded after three hours of
work. 80
When the flood subsidized 1t was found
that hole sixty feet long. thirty feet wide
and twelve feet deep had been torn in 9Sth
street at the point where the main burst

DYNAMITED THE CARS
RAILROAD OFFICIALS HOPED BY
THIS TO SEPARATE THEM.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., October 81
Several light charges of dynamite were to-
day exploded under the two submerged
cars in the Thoroughfare in hope of break
ing the coupling, but the effort was In
vain, the divers being unable to get the
charges in the proper place. Railroad OFF,
Gals say the charges did not damage the
cars, and they have given up hope of sep
arating them. The wrecking crews are
now trying to drag the cars ashore, dis
lance of 200 feet.
No signs of any bodies have been discov:
cred since the bodies Of two women were
found yesterday. officials thought that
should any bodies be stuck in the mud the
dynamite explosions would bring them to
the surface. Searchlights were thrown on
the water following the explosions, but no
bodies were seen. 1t is believed. however,
that there are bodies wedged in the cars.
From card found in his pocket the one
unidentified man is believed to be William
Brannon. He is supposed to have brother
in Cleveland. Ohio.
The death list hovers between o. and tO,
and it is not believed the latter figure Will
be exceeded.

WOMEN ARE MARTYRS.
Indignation in London Over Treatment
Of Suffragists.
special Cablegram to The Sta,

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, October 31.-Although public
opinion favors teaching the suffragettes a
lesson, the action of the authorities in treat
ing as common criminals the women who
created a disturbance in the lobby of the
house of commons October % threatens to
raise the prisoners to the lever of martyrs
and to secure them a measure Of public
support which they would never obtain
otherwise. Some of them are Of gentle
birth and bringing up and include daugh-
ter of the late Richard Golden. Therefore
their harsh treatment has aroused an out
cry and indignant protest.
When they were sentenced to two months
Imprisonment they were stripped naked and
searched, were given plank beds and the
coarse prison diet and were not allowed to
correspond with their friends. Some of
them are now i'll from the rigors of their
Imprisonment. 1t is contended that they
are political offenders and are entitled to
be treated as first-ciass misdemeanants,
which would permit them privileges insur-
ing comparative comfort, even to the en-
ployment of a servant. The government,
recognizing the danger in the growth Of
agitation over the matter, has at length Or
dered the prisoners to be treated as first
class misdemeanants.

WIRZ OF ANDERSONVILLE.
Proposed Monument to the Notorious
Prison Keeper


AMERICUS, Ga, October 31-At the
annual meeting of the Georgia Division
United Daughters of the Confederack today
a report of Mrs. A. B. Hull of Savannah
the president, who last year inaugurated the
plan to erect a monument to Major Henry
Wirz the Andersonville prison keeper
was read, in which she speaks of opposi-
ton to the plan in some sections as fol-
lows:
There was never any object undertaken
by our society that has met with such
widespread interest, such loyal support
and such violent antagonism. The latter
has taken the widest form INDUCED in the
, most insane abuse not sparing in any way
the women of the Georgia division or the
south in general, and we have answered
never a word, but have simply gone and
proved our case and mean to establish the
truth forever, when we unveil our monu
ment A campaign of education it has
verify been for I do not believe any of us
knew how ignorant we were of the history
of that period until We went into this mat
ter as we have been Obliged to do in order
to give an answer for the faith that was
in US"
Mrs. Hull also recommended that
picture of Winnie Davis be placed In the
dormitory of the Rabun, Ca, industrial
school, which is conducted by the daugh-
tiers as a memorial to both Mrs Jefferson

TAFI'S BIG RECEPTION
He PAYS HIS COMPLIMENTS TO
SPEAKER CANNON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
DANV1LLE, Ill, October 31.-Secretary
Taft had a big meeting here last night.
There was immense enthusiasm and great
ovation to the Secretary of War from
townspeople of Speaker Cannon. Secretary
Taft was introduced by Col. George T..
Buckingham. He paid a glowing tribute to
Speaker Cannon.
Mr.. Taft said:
Il do not know anybody in Washington
connected with the administration who has
to have the power of saying No with more
force, in order that the country may be
saved from disastrous legislation, than the
Speaker of the House l do not know any
body who has welded that gavel that has
stood with more force and to more purpose
and in such a way as to entitle him to more
gratitude from his fellow countrymen than
Joseph Cannon"
He said that President Gompers wants all
right of injunction in labor matters re-
moved from the power of federal courts
and that to say that a congressman ought
to be kept at home because he refused to
support such a bill Gompers demanded
was to fly in the face of the intelligent
voters of this country.

PLANS FOR THE DREADNoUGHT.
Monster Battleship Will Head the
Home SQUADRON

LONDON, October 31.-The announcement
that the first-class battleship Dreadnought
will be the flagship of the new home fleet
is welcomed in naval circles and by the
general pubic as proof that the new fleet
will by no means be mere reserve. 1t is
learned that the home feet will be quarter
ed in three divisions at Sheerness, Ports
mouth and Davenport, with big nucleus
of the crews on shipboard, and that they
will be kept in such constant state Of pre-
paredness that they can be brought up to
their full war strength and be in readiness
to go to sea within a few hours.
The first division, at Sheerness, will have
the Dreadnought and four other battle
ships, to be taken from the present sea-
going squadrons, which, according to to-
days information, will equal both in gun
power and speed any vessels that can be
brought against them by any foe."
