the cants were shipped. This IS

SIGNS OF A MARITIME TRAGEDY
400 Life PreseNers Washed
Ashore Near Cape Hatteras.
WRECK OCCURRED NEAR COAST
This Is the Opinion OF Shipping Men.
Believed That the Disaster Occurred
to a Passenger Ship-No Marks on
the Wreckage.

Norfolk, Va, October 25-A mari
time puzzle that may be the result Of
a great ocean tragedy came ashore near
Cape Hatteras today in the shape of
more than four hundred life pre-
servers.
Between Hatteras and Big Kinnaket,
the beach is strewn with the cork
jackets. Some are marked and some
are not. Those that are. bear names
not to be found in the maritime regis
ter. Lloyds or the American BLUE
Book" Some are marked "Caswitz.
Rettunsyyurcer, G. r. +. No. 10S SAL
Others are stamped "Sealanan." Two
bear the name "Smeskf." Three miles
north OF Big Kinnaket, part of a
white yawl boat and fragment of a
boats gunwale washed ashore. There
are no marks on this wreckage
Because all the life preservers and
the pieces CT wreckage came on the
beach in such a limited area, shipping
men here are of the opinion that what
ever the cause may be, it occurred not
far from the coast. A diligent search
among marine records has failed to
reveal any names that correspond with
those on the life preservers, and life
preservers are generally marked with
the name of the boat they are on.
From the great number of Jackets
that came on the beach it is believed
here that if a disaster has occurred it
is passenger ship that is the victim.
But how such a wreck could happen
without other traces of it coming
. ashore is mystifying the shipping
men.
, 1t is probable a revenue cutter will
be sent out to scour the ocean off Hat
teras for further traces Of a wreck.

SUITS AGAINST SEABOARD
Two Brought by Men for Being As
saulted While on Train.

Joss Ross, who was so seriously
wounded last summer by pistol shot
while o nan excursion train operated
by the Seaboard Railway company,
has brought suit against it for $15,-
00O He was passenger on one of
the cars of the excursion, and was
shot by a wild drunken negro, OF
whose condition the conductor on the
train had positive notice. The bullet
broke his right jaw, piercing his ton
que, struck his right cheek-bone, and
then ranging upward, lodged near his
brain. It was not removed, as his
physician was of the opinion that
death would result from the necessary
operation While Ross is abl" to be
about, the most serious apprehension
Is entertained by his physician on ac-
count of the position of the bullet.
The negro that did the shooting is
in Jail awaiting his trial at the next
term of the superior court Of this
county.
