New York, Dec Rear Admiral
Joseph b. Coghlan is dead at his home

from 1904 to 1907
Rear Admiral Coghlan's death was
very unexpected. He, with Mrs Cogh-
Ian, was living at the home of Charles
Chamberlain, former New York
newspaper man, in Sutton Manor, the
residence section of New Rochelle.
while waiting for his new home in that
city to be made ready for his occupan-
cy. The rear admiral was seen about
the streets of New Rochelle Friday
and appeared to be as well as usual
His death occurred Saturday.
Washington, Dec. sincere regret
was expressed on every hand Saturday
when the news of the death of Rear
Admiral Joseph b. Coghlan became
known. Fearless. kindly and good
story teller, he had hosts of warm
friends both among the officers and
those outside the service. Admiral
Dewey expressed himself rs shocked
at the news. Coghlan was with Dewey
at the battle of Manila bay in COM
mand of the cruiser Olympia and he
was promoted later for his work in
that battle. He enjoyed the admiral's
confidence to q marked degree and
was dispatched by him on various i'm
portant missions while the fleet was
in the Philippines.
1t was Admiral Coghlan's popularity
and capacity as good story teller
that involved him in the incident OF
which much was made at the time
when the admiral recited the poem
.'Hoch Der Kaiser" which somewhat
ruffied the German authorities. The
incident occurred at dinner which
the admiral attended and it was not
| intended that the fact of the recital
should become public. However, it
appeared in newspapers and as it &C.
Cured after the return from Manila
where there had been some friction
with the German authorities, the affair
was treated with more significance
than perhaps the circumstances other
wise would have warranted. The navy
department called on the admiral for
an explanation The admiral replied
that no diSreSpect was meant by him
to the German emperor, and with
this statement the matter was allowed

moment hGeltated as 10 what waS
right and what WIS wrong. His cour-
age in doing right was no less than
his courage in denouncing wrong. Mr..
Cleveland was patriot-not a parti-
san. His love of country was greater
than his love of party. If his own con-
science told him thing was right
he acted and took the consequences.
He never did things because they

honesty was the best expedient in the

PERMISSION REFUSED;

Waterway ls Given Wider Channel

of Topping Into Raging Current.

Pine Bluff, Ark, Dec. 4.-Radical
unknown parties in their efforts to d.
vert the swift current of the Arkansas
river from the banks at Pine Bluff. and
throughout the night loud explosions
shook the city. Dynamite was freely
used in an attempt to protect threat
ened property. More than 100 yards
of the point of land opposite Pine
Bluff, known as Boyd's Point, includ-
ing four-room residence, disappeared
from view and the river swept past
the city in wider channel and with
less force on the endangered banks.
River Recedes.
There has been practically no other
development in the flood situation. The
river receded Monday night, and a
rapid fall was forecasted The court
house and Hotel Jefferson, which We're
regarded to be in danger OF collapse,
stood intact Thursday, and the only
damage done during the night was the
destruction of portion of the main
building of the Berlin stable, part
of which collapsed.
General orders have been issued to
officers to permit no dynamiting, but it
was impossible for these officers to
cross the river. In Pine Bluff Thurs
day it was said the identity of the dy-
namiters Is unknown to the munich
pal officers.

sent word to stop 1t at all hazards.
The government boats were practi-
cally out of commission. however, ow-
ing to the heavy current, and could
not get to the scene in the dark
ness
Sheriff Philpott hurried to the river
front when the explosions came. The
strong current made 1t almost impos
sible to cross the river at that time
and he could do nothing to stop OPP
erations.
Say End Justifies Act
A strong sentiment prevails here
that drastic as was the action in de
flying the government and using dyna
mite to change the current. the end
has justified the action. The property
and the section of the city now endan
gered is not nearly so valuable as the
courthouse. hotel. and other property
before the peril The effects of the
dynamite began to be noticed shortl,
after midnight. The current swung
first, then more rapidly as the dyna
hitting progressed and the point wa
torn away.
