for the sake OF brevity I will only
quote one:
A few days after the repeal of the

Big Bonanza of san Francisco. left
San Francisco in tow for the Columbia
river. When off Cape Mendocino the
vessel encountered very heavy wealth

was reported that the vessel had
foundered with all hands, but she hob
bled back to San Francisco in a dis
abled condition on the 18th day after
her departure. The master had broken
his leg on the day of breaking adrift
from the tug The man that was act
ing as mate knew nothing about navi-
CATION o. the rule Of the road. After
the vessel had tossed aimlessly about
the Pacific Ocean for eight days the
crew rugged up an extempore stretcher,
and got the master on deck, who OBJ
tanned assight, and determined his. pos

of even doing that slight service. Three

I therefore implore of you on behalf
of the hundreds of thousands of people
who have to use the sea route as a

capacities and occupations. and also on
behalf of the many precious lives that
have been sacrificed to the greed of

for vessels to be manned by bonafide

KILLED BY PoRPofSE?
Boy in Swimming Off Tybee Island
Meets Sudden Death.

A dispatch from Savannah, Ga,
says nearly mile off shore at Tybee
Harry Lovett, white, in swimming
with Wylly Brunner, son of the Sa-
vannah health officer, was killed by
a large fish that sprang over Brun-
ner's head and struck the other
swimmer squarely, taking him down
into the water. Neither appeared
again. From the survivors, descrip-
tion of the big fish it was probably
a porpoise that became frightened
when suddenly approaching Brun-
ner, and leaped to clear him without
having seen Lovett, who was follow
ing.
The boys had been swimming for
two miles and their destination is a
mile from where the sad accident Zoc-
Cured. 1t is believed that Lovett's S
head and breast were crushed in by
the terrific force of the porpoise's
leap.

DIED FROM HYDROPHOBIA.
Dreadful Malady Causes Death OF a
Girl in Brooklyn.

Hydrophobia has caused the death
Of Florence Kirkman, the six-year-
old daughter of Ralph Kirkman,
Brooklyn. For hours before the
child was removed from her home
to a hospital her cries could be heard
all over the neighborhoOd where she
lived.
Six weeks ago the child was Bit
ten in the hand by mongrel dog.
She was playing in the streets at the
time, tossing a ball into the air. AS
she stopped to pick up the ball. the
dog ran at her and bit her.
The girls mother took her to a
nearby druggist who cauterized the
wound. The wound seemed to heal
and nothing was thought of the in
cideut until about two weeks ago
when the girl began to have spells
of dizziness. Mr. Kirkman called IN
a physician but he thought the dog
bite had nothing to do with the
child's illness. Then the child mac
one convulsion after another. The
doctor advised her removal to a hos

Negro to Death.

A dispatch from Williamson,
Tuesday says Will Suber, colored, is
dead. and Deveau French, white, is
in Jail charged with murder, a re-
suit of French's drunkenness.
French shot Suber at the former S
livery stables Saturday. apparently
without provocation, ard the negro
died Sunday afternoon. From the
information that can be gathered at
this time, it seems that the negro
who worked for Simpson & Martin

French's stables, when French, VINO
was drunk, called him across the
street to where he (French) was. IN
very brief moment French shot
three times, and the negro grappled

FINE SET ASIDE.
THE UNITED STATES CIRCUIT
COURT OF APPEALS,
Stands by the Standard Oil Company
and Wipes Out the Fine of Nearly
Thirty Million Dollars.

- At Chicago on Wednesday the
United States circuit court of appeals
reversed the famous decision of
Judge Kenesaw M. Lands, in which
he fined the, Standard Oil company,
of Indiana, s29,24O,OOo. The case
is remanded to the lower court for
a new trial
The decision of the court. compos-
ed of Judges .Grosscup, Baker and
Seaman, was a scathing arraignment
of Judge Lands, in which it was
asked if the court believed himself
above the law in imposing fine that
would fall on, the shoulders of the
mother corporation-the Standard
Oil company of New Jersey when the
Indiana corporation alone under the
law could be held responsible.
1t seemed to be the irony of fate
that Judge Grosscup should have
written the decision Of the upper
court. He not only wrote the deci-
sion. but read the decision to the
waiting throng in the court room.
-Jndge Grosscup and Judge Landis
have not been the best of friends
for sometime, as result of certain
statements made months ago by
Judge Lands concerning federal
judges who talk publicly on matters
which might come under their judi
cal attention.
When the three judges took their
seats on the bench, the court room
was crowded to the doors. John S.
Miller, Rockefellers famous $780,
900 lawyer, was present to represent
the oil trust. He was accompanied
by Attorney NORTH Rosenthal and
several other Standard Oil lawyers.
District Attorney Edwin Sims appear
ed for the government.
All that occurred in court was the
reading of the last paragraph Of the
decision. Judge Grosscup read it as
follows:
'The judgment of the district
court is reversed and the case re-
manded with instructions to grant a
new trial, and proceed here accor-
dance with this opinion.
That was all and court adjourned
Immediately. District Attorney Sims
held q conference with Mr.. James
!. .Wilkerson5 and decided to rush the
case to another trial in the fall.

A CALL TO WoRKINGNIEN.
President Gompers Urges Union
Members to Vote for Bryan.

A dispatch from Washington in
advance Of publication in the Fed
erationist, the newspaper organ of
the trade unionists, President Com
pers, of the American Federation of
Labor, Wednesday. night liberated
the proof sheets of democratic edi-
torial that will appear in the August
issue of the paper.
There are three double columns
of it, much of the type being used
in quoting the written demands that
Mr.. Gompers and his associates made
on the Republican and Democratic
conventions for insertion in their
party Platforms. Stress is laid on
the anti-injunction planks of both
conventions, which are quoted, ana
lytical comments by Gompers being
added.
While disavowing an intention Ito
deliver the labor vote" Gompers en-
presses the opinion that the worker
will have to answer to his fellow
workers, as we'll as his conscience, If
his action is contrary to the political
course that is pointed out for him.
An argument is submitted with
the intention of proving that the Re
publican party is the enemy and the
Democratic party the friend of Ia
bor and it concludes with call to
the workers to defeat their enemies
for all offices, presidential, legisla-
tive and judicial.

APPEALS TO NEWSPAPERS.
Bryan Calls Upon Them to Collect
Funds for Campaign.

An appeal by Mr.. Bryan to the
Democratic newspapers of the country
to begin the collection of funds for
the campaign was one Of the impor-
tant happenings Of the day.
The statement follows:
81 wish every Democratic paper
would begin the collection of a fund
from it's subscribers. There are very
few Democrats who. could not afford
to make contribution and the people
will never be able to control the
government until they take on them
selves the burden Of supplying cam
paign funds. AS long as few men
furnish the money to finance a cam
paign the men will exert an undue
influence upon the government.
''It seems that we have reached
the. end of corporate contributions
and this is a. step in advance but the
individuals who control these favor
seeking corporations may still domi-
nate politics by furnishing the sinews
of war. The Democratic party has
struck blow at this system by limit
ing contributions to $10,0OOand pro-
viding for publicity before the cleo
ton. The Republican party has so
far refused to join with us on this
proposition but public sentiment may
yet compel it to do so. II have nos
doubt that the Democratic party will
receive contributions from more in
dividuals than ever contributed to
any campaign and there is no reason
why the entire sum necessary should
not be supplied by contributions from
the masses. If every Democratic pa
per will take the matter up and lend
helping hand we will soon have
money enough in the treasury to
provide for legitimate campaign work
and that is all we want"

Macon and Atlanta, and on his way
to the latter place, Dan Cannon,
whose disappearance during the last
ten days have attracted considerable
attention, was walking to Savannah
and showed up at home Tuesday.
He declares that for eight days
his mind has been a blank. Yet in
that time he rode from Savannah to
Claxton on his daughters bicycle,
told strange stories of his plan to
ride until he should be west OF the
Mississippi River and finally dispos-
ed of the wheel when chance came
for ride tc Macon on freight
train.
In Macon his mind suddenly re-
sumed its normal condition and, leav-
ing friends who had cared for him
without a word of goodbye, he
started to walk to Savannah. Part
of the journey he made afoot. He
was in several hard rains ana MS

exposure and unusual eXertion, have
left him very i'll.
The story he tells is that, while
suffering from a sunstroke, he made

to make the trip. During that time,
he declares, he performed no action

effort to keep his mind clear. The
moments when he is going to sleep

A crime so cruelty crafty as to be
almost unbelievable is revealed in
the case of Mrs. Ottillie Eberhard,
a Viennese widow, whose body was
found on the New York, Susquehan-
ma and Western railroad track, in a
lonely section near Hackensack, N.
j., recently.
The police of every Eastern city
are searching for August Eberhard,
the victims nephew, who for months
importuned her come here with a
fortune Of $4,000 and her twenty
.year-old daughter, whom August pro-
missed to marry. The girl refused to
believe that August had anything to
do with it. His, parents live on a
farm near Dutchess Junction, New
York
The victim, with her daughter, az
rived at New York last Thursday.
Eberhard is employed in a grocery
store in st. Nicholas avenue. He
settled them at hotel here and con-
verted the money into American
notes. He took them to the country
on the preteXt of heat.
At Rochelle park at his suggestion
the trio strolled in the fields. Eber-
hard claimed he had lost the way. A
thunderstorm broke. The woman
stumbled on the track, exclaiming
she had been struck by lightning.
Miss Eberhard says there were three
flashes from behind car on a sid
ing. AS her mother fell the girl felt
a bullet Craze her own neck, cutting
a gold chain. Eberhard urged her to
run and as she did so she was struck
by two bullets.
A nearby cottage cared for the
girl till Sunday. The murderer
must have shot the widow as she lay
