The President Coulter"

From Captain News.
Governor Curry has visited many
portions of the Territory, and in ev-
cry place he has. aroused enthusiasm
for statehood. The Governor has been
aDle to do this for the reason that
the people want statehood, and he
brought a message from PFesiden
Roosevelt that he would do all he
could to secure statehood for New
Mexico. The President, however, after
arousing hope, now throws cold water
on the proposition by asserting that
New Mexico has no chance for state
hood at the hands of congress this

The Great cunarder Beats All Former

New York. Oct. 1.-THE Cunarder
Lusitania, with practically all the
transatlantic records to her credit, ar
rived abeam he Sandy Hook lightship
at 1;25 a. m. Friday.
The time for the trip from Daunts
Rock to the Sandy Hook light, the Off
cial course over which speed trials
were made, was four days and twenty
hours. The last days run was appar-
emily the fastest of the trip, the giant
liner hitting up her speed to twenty
five knots an hour over a smooth sea
with little wind to interfere with her.
The Lusitania beats her time for
her maiden trip by approximately Ave
hours, her time on that trip being five
days, 81 minutes.
With the Lusitania's trip, the Gu
nard Line and England captures from
Germany the eagerly-sought record for
possessing the feetest ship on the At
lantic. The Hamburg-American liner
Deutschland has held the record for a
number of years.
Steamship men also claim that the
achievement of the Lusitania proves
the superiority of turbine engines over
the reciprocating type.

EAT HUMAN BEINGS
EDITOR RETURNS FROM NORTH
WITH REMARKABLE TALE.
HORRORS ARE DUE TO THE FAMINE
Explorer Declares Human Flesh ls
Eaten Openly in Northeast
ern Canada.

Winnipeg. Manitoba, Oct. 12.-Tales
of cannibalism and famine among the
natives of northeastern Canada, be-
tween the eastern shore of James Bay
and Labrador, are brought back by
j. A. Osborne, editor of the Fort Fran
els Times, who has just completed a
trip of exploration in that country.
At Moose Factory the explorer met
young man who fed thither in ter
ror of his uncle, who, he said, had
killed and eaten eight human beings.
There, too, he saw a woman who last
winter killed and ate her two chill
dren, so great was the famine. This
lack of food primarily was brought
about by the fact that the woods
seemed almost entirely without the
usual number OF deer and rabbits,
upon which animals the natives ordi-
narily subsist.
One Village Wiped Out.
These occurrences did not seem to
cause any stir in that region, and Mr..
Osborne has come to the conclusion
that cannibalism is practiced openly
on many occasions among the Indians
and half-breeds.
One village on Nam River was
wiped out by the great snowfall last
F, winter. Having no provisions stored
up, and with streams frozen, all the
Indians starved to death with the ex.
ception of a party of young men and
women who decided to try to make
Hudson Bay Fort, $50 miles down the
stream. After a journey marked by
untold privation they reached the fort
more dead than alive. A relief expe
dition sent back to the village found
thirteen bodies in the rude huts which
comprised the village.
Osborne says the Indians and Esld
mo population are diminishing rapidly
in that region, due partly to emigra
ton to the coast of Labrador anC
partly to the prevalence of disease
and frequent scarcity OF food, H,
says many of the natives are falling
victims to tuberculosis.
