for $4,000 damages, and the basis of each

which spoke of alleged combinations be-
tween the railroads and the trusts, and as
an instance mentions the South Station,
which was built by and is owned by the
terminal company. Mr.. Hanks is the

GIRL CALLED WHITE SLAVE"
Cawley Family Says They Tried to
Provide for Her.

RICHMOND, Va, June 13.-The charge
made by neighbors against Swansboro
family that for ten years young girl had
been kept In pconage has been brought to
the attention of the National Vigilance
League of America, humane society whose
headquarters are said to be In Baltimore.
With view to restoring the white slave
her freedom and property the league some
DAYS ago started an investigation. ]. Kent
Rawley. Richmond attorney, was asked
to prosecute the case. He said that AN Off
Ger of the league had reported that the
girl is now comfortably provided for and in
good hands.
The charges Of bad treatment of the girl
are said to have been the outgrowth of
neighborhood feuds
The girl in the case was waif who had
grown into a comedy young woman of about
eighteen years. She is now earning a living
in tobacco factory in this city. The par
ents of the child were very poor, and after
a few years decided to part with the little
waif, then tot of four years. Mrs.
j. j. Cawley offered to give The child a
comfortable home, and the proposition was
accepted. The girl was BORN in Maryland,
was christened Eleanor, and the name
Maryland was added to her own. She was
reared like their own children and given
good schooling, but was required to work
just as were the other Cawley children.
The Cawley family said she neglected her
household work, and they decided to Ind
her a home elsewhere The sisters of
charity in Richmond were appealed to, but
tie girl refused to accept what they Of
fered, and later left the Cawley home.
Then according to the Cawleys, came the
story of the white slave" Sentiment in
Swansboro is divided, many Of the people
siding with the Cawleys, while others ad
here to the story that the girl was kept
in bondage, until she grew old enough to

ALL HOPE is ABANDONED
Pieces of Canvas Canopy Of
Boat and Capes of Middies
Stevenson and UIrich
Come to Surface
of Water.

NORFOLK Va, June 13.-It is the gem
eral opinion of the officers and men of
the fleet that the six officers and five sea-
men who have been missing since they
left Discovery Landing. at midnight Mon
day, in the Minnesota's launch, were
drowned. All hope for the missing men
has been abandoned. A small piece OF
canopy, presumably part of the covering
of the Inflated launch, and the hats of
several seamen came to the surface yes
terday. They bear no marks but are sup
posed to have belonged to the seamen
aboard the launch. Divers will be sent
down at the spot where the piece of canopy
was found.
The uniforms and capes of Midshiplnen
Stevenson and Ulrich, two of the missing
men; a cap and several seamen's hats
were also picked up yesterday.
May Swell Death List.
Lieutenant Commander Miller, executive
officer of the Minnesota was ashore from
the battleship yesterday afternoon, and he
expressed the fear that the death, list
might be larger than has been published.
There are still missing from the ship some
seamen whose liberty was up Monday
night, and as these men have not been
heard from the theory is that they may
have taken passage on the launch when it
left the exposition pier a few minutes past
midnight Tuesday morning. If they were
aboard they were lost with the others who
were known to have been drowned. Other
wise they are deserters from their ship,
having Oyerstayed their lfberty
Two Others Missing.
A special dispatch from Newport News
says that search is being made for two
men from the torpedo boat destroyer
Worden, who. leaving that vessel al am
Tuesday in a small launch, proceeded to
Newport News. There they had some
trouble with their engine and repairing 1t
as best they could started on the return
for the Worden, lying off Pine Beach
This, the special says, is the last that was
seen of the men and it is feared that they
met with further trouble and possibly were
lost. If these men prove to have been lost
it will make fifteen lives that would have
been lost since the fleet first assembled in
Hampton roads in April.
The boats of the fleet were dragging the
waters last night for the missing launch
and the bodies Of the Mnnesota's victims
and a board is investigating the catas-
trophe.
Whether the Mnnesota's launch, bearing
the young naval officers on their return
from the ball on the exposition grounds to
the fleet lying at anchor in Hampton roads
was run down by a steamer. a barge In
tow of a tug or sank as result of the
