Corroborated by Waiter.

BLOCK ISLAND, r. l., February IA
Louis Mcfarland, a colored waiter who
had both feet and hands frozen, told today
his story of how he reached land after the
Larchmont went down. While he mani
tested an evident desire to shield his COM
mander and mates as far as possible, Mac
farland, who was one of the members Of
the crew, corrobOrated in his frank state
ments the stories of the aggrieved passen-
gers.
Was our boat the first to put off, you
ask?' reiterated Mcfarland rolling on his
couch with a groan as his frozen feet,
swathed in bandages, sent pain through
his body. Well, l can't say whether any
boat got away before We did, but do know
that things came quick that it was a
of every man for himself.
Il should not think it was more than five
minutes after the schooner opened gap
in our port side that We took to our life
boat, which was on the forward starboard
davits. Other boats might have gotten away
before that. but | don't really see how they
could have had the time.

All Passengers Not Off.

NO, all the passengers had not been
taken off before our lifeboat pushed clear
l saw what appeared TO me to be fully one
hundred men, women and children on the
decks, shouting and acting like mad. Yes,
there were women among them, half dress
ed and acting like crazy people.
"All the boats could not have been re-
leased in that short time. l don't want to
talk much about this matter. All l know
is that when the crash came Capt McVey
sent down one of the pilots to see what
damage had been done, after having first
tried the signal system, which had been
smashed. The pilot came back white and
reported that there was no use to try to do
anything. He said we would go down in no
time With that the lights went out and
the ship became filed with steam. l think
a lot of people must have died suffocated
from that steam in the cabin and In their
berths, because it was awful thick, after
the pipes and machinery were stove in by
the bow of the schooner.
Pleaded to Be Saved.
Men and women came rushing at the

officers had to force them back. The stew

no need to put on life preserves. that
they must go back and be quiet and every

Then we cut loose our boat. 1t was on

not follow us up there. That / saw, al
though when we pushed off, the decks,
especially the hurricane, were crowded.

ought to try to save all they could. Some
one on the boat said that 1t would be folly
to try It, We could hear their yells when

CHARGED With
SHEEP STEALING
WELL-KNOWN RESIDENTS OF
THIS COUNTY ARRESTED WITH
SHEEP IN THEIR POSSESSION
ALLEGED TO BE STOLEN.

Thomas Graham and Arch Craig,
residents of the upper Snake river
country, were arrested this morning
on charges of stealing 34S sheep be-
longing to Coffin & Hepton and de-
livering the sheep at the Lewiston
stockyards for shipment to coast
points.
The men were arraigned before
Justice of the Peace George E. Erb
and their bonds fixed at $500 each
for their appearance Monday at 10
o'clock for preliminary examination.
The discovery of the stolen sheep
was entirely accidental. Mr.. Hep
ton and herder who had been in
charge of a portion of the sheep dur
ing the summer were at the stock
yards delivering hogs for shipment
when the herder discovered partic-
ular black-faced sheep which had
been in his band during the summer
He called Mr. Hepton's attention to
the sheep, and upon investigation II
was found the entire herd was brand
ed with the Coffin & Hepton mark.
Hepton Immediately secured his
/ horse and started for the Wallace
ranch in Tammany, where the sheer
are on winter pasture, and found
over 300 of his sheep missing anC
the tracks leading from the field t.
the city stockyards, He then return
ed to the city and secured warrants
for the men having the sheep II
charge.
Graham furnished bonds for hi
release this afternoon, but Craig
still in the hands of the sheriff.

JURY OF GUN TALK" MADE
LONG BEFORE DATE OF SHOOT
ING.

WASHINGTON, Nov. '29.-Dr. Da-
church of Denver, who performed the
marriage ceremony for Mrs Bradley,
testifying today, stated that during a
conversation with Mrs. Bradley he
urged her to give up the idea of
marrying Brown. She replied
when it comes to the test and
gun is pointed at him. Brown will
accede."
Mrs. Bradley did not say she
would shoot Brown herself, and the
witness got the impression it would
justify her children If Mrs. Bradley S
father or some one else would dc
Brown bodily harm.
DR.. Edward Brush of Baltimore
government expert, decided in his
opinion Mrs. Bradley was perfectly
sane when she shot Brown. He ad.
mitted that puerpural insanity was
we'll known in medical science, but
said it was rapidly disappearing be
cause of the introduction of the sep
tic method.
DR.. Jeliffe, the expert, was called
by District Attorney Baker, who pro
pounded a long hypothetical ques
tion to him, covering threats ALLEGED
to have been made by Mrs. Bradle!
toward Brown and her movement,
and acts up to the time the shot wa
fired. The government rested thi
afternoon.
Mrs. Bradley was recalled to tn
stand and said she had no recollec
tion of the details of the converse
ton with Dr. Utter, as related b.
him. The defense then rested

would go to the Jury Monday. TIL

TURN
HORSE Thieves
PRISONERS IN LATAH COUNTY,
JAIL IMPLICATE CITIZENS lM
HORSE STEALING GRGANIZA-
TIoN-ONE UNDER ARREST.

Sheriff j. j. Keane of Latab couEg~
ty has secured confessions from priE-
oners now confined in the E.atafh
county jail to the effect that promt-
nent farmers of Nez Perce and Latafk
counties are members of a horse
stealing organization that has stDseR
more than 60 horses during the past
year and marketed the stolen AMI
mails in parts Of eastern Washing
ton and Montana.
As a result of the confessions, a.
farmer by the name of Forsman.
who resides in Nez Perce county,
near Juliaetta, has been placed un-
der arrest and it is understood a.
number of other warrants have been
issued for men equally as prominent
in Latah and Nez Perce counties.
The confessions were secured fron
Henry ]. Baer and Edward Kent,
who were arrested In Bozeman,.
Mont, on charge of stealing horses
in the Juliaetta section, Baer being
| the constable of the Juliaetta pre-
cinct. When brought to Moscow the
men decided to tell the story of their
crimes, and related the manner In
which large number of horses have
been stolen in central Idaho and
eastern Washington and driven out
of the country to be sold.
Baer and Kent claim they were
acting only as agents for the real
thieves, and that the horses taken
by them were selected by other mem
bers of the organization and we're
taken to places where still another
agent had secured a market.
They claim the organization ex-
tended into the Salmon river section
of Idaho county, where hidden
ranges provided pasture for the ami
mails until they could be driven out
of the country, and horses stolen i'm
Idaho county were taken to Okano-
gan county, Washington, where like
conditions provided a hiding place
for the horses until search had been
abandoned.
Forsman will be brought 10 the
Nez Perce county jail on the charge
of horse stealing.

DAIRY BUSINESS
PAYS SPOT Cash
IN PRESENT FINANCIAL FURRY
FARMERS WHO WERE ENGAG-
ED IN DAIRY BUSINESS REAL
lied CASH RETURNS.

w A. Burghardt, prominent
farmer in the Mohler section, is
business visitor in the city today.
Mr.. Burghardt reports farmers in his
section engaged in the winter plow-
ing, the recent rains having afforded
sufficient moisture to permit this
work to be carried on in all sections
of the prairie He says the fall seed
ing will be about the same as former
years, and that the late fall plowing
will leave the ground in good condi-
tion for early seeding next spring.
THE financial furry has embar-
rassed business at all of the prairie
towns" said Mr.. Burghardt, while
discussing conditions on Nezperce
prairie "The farmers have their
wheat receipts, but these cannot be
turned into cash or negotiated in
/ trade at the stores. The farmer who
is engaged in the dairy business is
the only man who can now market
/ his product for cash. and the revenue
| from a few cows is a material as
sistance to those engaged in the
business. The present price of but
terfat is 80 cents per pound, which
makes the dairy business one of The
most profitable industries to the
farmer"
Mr.. Burghardt states the steel OF
the Culdesac- c-Grangeville line is nov
laid to the Cold Springs creeks three
miles from Voilmer and will be com
pleted into that time within the mex
10 days The people of the prairi
are planning a big celebration upol
the occasion of the first train int

CLASH over
COUNTY ROAD
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AND
AGENT LIPPS IN CONTRovER-
sY OVER CLOSING OF OLD
sWEETWATER:LAPwAI ROAD.

A contention has arisen between
Indian Agent Lipps, of Lapwai and
the county commissioners relative to
the closing of the road between Lap
wal and Sweetwater, and the COM
missioners have served notice upon
Mr.. Lipps that he will be prosecuted
under the state laws if he obstructs
the public highway.
The matter wastbrought to the at
tention of the commissioners during
their recent session by a letter from
Mr.. Lipps in which he stated the
road would be closed in accordance
with instructions received by him
from the Indian department, this ac-
tion being taken to throw all Of the
government land together.
The letter of Mr. Lipps was an
swered by the commissioners and no.
tice given of a prosecution under the
state laws If the road was in any
way obstructed. The commissioners
claim the road was located before
the military reserve was established
and that Mr.. Lipps nor any employe
of the government has no more right
to obstruct 1t than any other citizen.
The commissioners also received a
petition demonstrating against the
proposed action of Mr.. Lipps and set
ting forth the embarrassments re-
sulting from any such action. 1t is
claimed the proposed change would
cost the county approximately $4,000
to construct a new road and the nee.
new road would be one which could
not be travelled during the freshet
season and would at all times be eX.
pensive to maintain.
The suggestion of Mr.. Lipps pro
vides for diverting the road at 6
town of Sweetwater, to the nortf
bank of Lapwai creek and follow TIL,
north bank to a point near Lapwai
where the creek would be agai1
crossed and entrance to the town af
forded
The present road from Lapwai t
Sweetwater was located more thai
so years ago by Col. Craig, iron
whom the Craig mountains take tn
name, before the establishment O
the military reserve The road wa
afterwards recognized by the Indian
in a treaty, and is one of the bes
highways in Nez Perce county TIL
people of that section will bitterl
oppose the proposed change and wi
subscribe funds to fight the cas-
through the courts.
The Lapwai people also conten
the Indian agent has no more righ
to change the public road than the
have the railroad, which also sever
the government land and will ar
peal to the Indian department t
have further proceedings in the ma
ter waived.
