LINER SINKS AT her DOCK
KAISER WILHELM II. GOES TO
BOTTOM AT BREMENHAVEN
Lists While CoaIing, Water Pours Into
Portfolios and Great Steamer
KeeIs Over.

Bremenhaven, Germany, July 22.-
The North German Lloyd steamship
Kaiser Wilhelm II. while coaling Sat
urday evening suddenly listed. The
water poured into her bunkers and
boiler compartments through the open
coal ports and the vessel careened and
lay on her side on the bottom. When
the tide was low her bow rested on a
bank, but with the rising of the tide
she slipped from that position and
keeled over.
The first impression was that strik-
ers had damaged the vessel in some
manner SO as to cause the accident,
but the company's officers, after an in
vestigation, affirmed that this is incor-
rect and that the accident occurred as
described.
After some delay the steam pumps
were set to work to free the vessel of
the water. The cabins do not appear
to be much damaged, as little water
reached them, but the ship cannot be
ready to sail, the company announces,
for several days at the best. Mean
time the Kaiser Wilhelm's full list of
passengers for Tuesdays sailing must
be transferred to other liners.
In explanation of the accident, it is
said that the inspectors of coal stow
ing had not perceived that the vessel
was not properly trimmed, because, as
she was partially aground, she kept
her equilibrium. When, however, she
began to refioat with the rising tide
she suddenly went over on her side
until hundreds of tons of water rushed
in.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY
NEAR NUN|CA, MICH,
cRAZED FARMER STAYS HIS SON,
WIFE AND FATHER-IN-LAW.
TRIES TO KILL HIMSELF
Finally Is Shot Dead by Neighbor
Whom He Threatened for In
terfering in His Bloody
Work.

Nunica, Mich, July 22.-Henry
Scutcheon, a farmer about so years
DID, who lived near this village, ran
amuck Sunday with an ak, killing his
invalid son, his wife and her foster
father
Scutcheon was later shot by Henry
Mcclellan, a neighbor, whom the
crazed murderer also had attacked.
The dead:
Henry Scutcheon.
Polly Scutcheon, his wife.
Frank Scutcheon, his 18-year-old
son.
George Aiming, Mrs. Scutcheon's
foster father.
The Scutcheon farmhouse had ap-
parently always been a happy home,
except for the cloud which the som
invalidism cast over the family.
Begins BY Killing Son.
Sunday, with no warning, so far as
is known, Scutcheon suddenly muir
derously attacked his son with an ak.
He crushed the boys head frightfully.
When his wife interfered he turned
on her and pursued the frightened,
screaming woman from their house
to the road, where he knocked her
down with his weapon. He then
rushed back to the house and muir
dered his foster father-in-law
Next he tried to destroy himself.
The maddened man gashed his throat
and wrists with razor and took
some paris green. His wounds did
not weaken him and the poison did
not take immediate effect AK in
hand, he returned to the road where
he had felled his wife few moments
before. The first blow did not kill
her and she had been carried into
the house of Henry Mcclellan, near
by. Mcclellan rushed to another
neighbours for help.
Stays Wife and Is Shot.
When Scutcheon found that his
wife was in the Mcclellan home alive
he smashed a window with his ak,
jumped through it and again at
tackled her. This time he crushed
her skull. He then left the McClel-
Ian home and returned to his own
house, but when Mr.. Mcclellan re-
turned from his search for help the
crazed man came out and started
over toward him, saying: Il want
you, too"
81 will shoot if you come across
the road" replied Mcclellan, who
had armed himself with a shotgun.
Despite the warning, Scutcheon came
across with murder in his glance.
Mcclellan thereupon shot him dead.

YAQUIS RAID MINING CAMP.
Take Everything of Value But Refrain
from Murder.

Hermosillo, Mex, July 22.-Yaqui
Indians raided the camp of the Rich
field Copper Mining company, just
north of Querobabi, Thursday last and
stripped it clean of everything of
value, but refrained from murder.
A body of 200 mounted troops has
been sent from here to scour the
country, but little success is expected
from the expedition. The Indians
made their attack at the noon hour
while the Americans and John Glea-
son, manager, were at dinner. The
Yaquis rushed upon the miners
through doors and windows, taking
them completely by surprise. They
informed Gleason that if the Ameri-
cans would agree not to try to follow
or fight, no one would be killed. He
agreed to this and the raiding party
rode away.

friendly little dog, he stopped short.
He would repeat what he had said
after the dog had been elected, he
announced, but first he wished to in
sist that no members of his flock
should hereafter bring their pet dogs
to the church. President Roosevelt
and his family attended the service
