 Policeman Barnes of the Twenty eighth District was passing Glenwood Cemetery on his tour of duty early yesterday morning and heard the sounds of heavy snoring. The sleeper was undoubtedly in the cemetery. Making his way there he discovered the coffin box, turned partly on one side, the lid resting against It. Ellis was sound asleep within and Barnes reused him with a blow from his club on the thin soles of his shoes. Ellis was so sleepy that it was with dim culty he was walked to the police sta ton,

 Most of the visitors who are now leaving the city. 1t seems, are bound for a Visit to the Northern States. with stop over privileges at the Exposition. This traffic Is considered very fair.

CREWS RESCUE

Boston, Oct, 14.--Capt. Everett w. AL

Boston barkentine Addie Morrill, arrived
here today on board the steamer Admiral
Dewey from Jamaica. having been res
cued by that steamer on her southern pas
sage from their sinking vessel, after all
hope had been abandoned.
The Addie Morrill, was bound from Sa-
lem, Mass, for Philadelphia with a cargo
OF paving stones. She ran into "a heavy
gale, was driven off her course and was
so badly battered by the tremendous seas
that her seams opened and she began To
ill. All on board the barkentne lashed
themselves TO the rigging and were almost
exhausted when the Dewey. bound from
Boston to Port Antonio bore down upon
them and rescued them from their peril

experiences said Each day after the

had been forced out OF the cabin by the

cook house on the deck was the only
place where we could find anything like
shelter. We were somewhat resigned to
our fate, when two lights pricked the
murk away TO the north. A steamer

was asked concerning loans made by the
Anglo company OF s2.l25.006 in 1906, and
81, ,427 907 In 1906 to Mr.. Mcdonald Mr..
Brainard said that the loans had been
ordered from London and that was all he
knew about them.
lis II not a fact that this money was
furnished Mr.. Mcdonald that he might
hold either the Manhattan OIL company Of
Ohio. or the Security Oil company OF
Texas?"
II do not know" replied Mr.. Brainard.
Mr.. Brainard was asked concerning the
loans made by the Southern Pipe Line
company OF over $4,000 900 TO p. s. Train
or.
ROCKEFELLER MAY KNOW.
Mr. Brainard said II was likely that Mr..
Trainor reported his losses to the Stand
ard Oil company OF New York and that
the Southern Pipe Line company reim-
bursed the Standard for the losses and
charged the amounts TO the account OF p.
8. Trainor. Mr.. Brainard said that these
losses were incurred by Mr. Trainor. he
thought, in the purchase and sale OF oil.
Mr.. Brainard said he knew nothing about
the loans made by the Standard oil com
pany of New York. aggregating $50. .761. $50
In 1906, to interests other than Standard
OIL" Mr. William @. Rockefeller might
know something of the loans, the wit
ness said.

dent of tho Standard OIL company of Ken

Mr.. Westcott said the Standard OIL
company of Kentucky was engaged in

HAD WARN|Nc
AGAINST USING
Fl. ADAMS BAND

The four union bands. which had been
engaged ythe Knights of Columbus TO
mtrch with them In their parade yester-
day afternoon refused TO proceed on the
line of march because the Fort Adams
band, "A non-union organization, had also
been engaged.
IL appears that the non-union band had
been hired without the knowledge of the
Musicians union and when the organiza-
uons appeared on Exchange place In or
der TO form their ranks the fact first be-
came known TO the unionists, who imme-
diately quit because OF the presence Of the
Fort Adams organization.
An attempt was made TO effect a com
promise by having the division of knights
which had the non-union band follow Is
minutes after the main procession had
started, but the union musicians would
not listen 10 this.
AS a result the parade was made with
but one band In line. The union musicians
claim that the knights officials have at
tempted TO march non-union bands on
previous occasions, and this had at all
times been objected TO by the union bands.
In this particular case Marshall Cooney.
leader OF the parade had been distinctly
given TO understand. about two months
before the parade was TO be held that the
union bands would under no consideration
march with a non-union organizatio. II is
stated as the parade leader had seeming
ly argued to this condition when the
union bands were engaged 1t was taken
for granted that no non-union band was
to march.
When contrary to. this understanding
the parade officials attempted to march
this non-union band the refusal OF the
union musicians to march was the result.
