A stoker rescued A.v-.
gaveIa vivid account of the accident.
"The Berwick flew up out of the
blackness and seemed to fall on us, !"
said this man. "The noise of the
impact was not great, but in q few
seconds we were ripped in halves.
The forward half of the Tiger reared
up like a frightenede horse and then
sank beneath the waves. The en-
gineer-lieutenant, who was in the
engine room in the after part,
shouted: 'All hands on deck,' but
owing to the Kissing of the steam
and the noice of the engines many of
the stokers could not hear him.
When we did realize what had hap
pened we made frantic efforts to get
on deck. The water was pouring
down into the hold in great torrents
and it was all we could do to make
our way against it. Everything hap
pened with startling suddenness. A
minute or two after the collision we
were drifting past the Berwick in
the full glare of the searchlights.
The next thing I remember is being
dragged into one Of the rescuing
boats in a emi-conscious condition. "

BUSINESS OUTLOOK
Indications of Great Prosperi'
ty Throughout the South

President F'iElay, of the Southern
Railway, Believes the Situation in
the South is as Favorable to an
Early Revival of Prosperity as That
il ANY Other Part of the Country.

Washington, Special. = President
". W. Finley, of rhe Southern Rail.
way Company, who has been looking
r.refully into commercial and indus
trial conditions in the Southern
States, was asked for a summary Of
the result of his inquiries.
"While business conditions in the
Southern States are not as favorable
as we would like to have them," said
Mr.. Finley, "I think the situation in
that section is fully as favorable to
an early revival of prosperity as that
in any other part of the country.
Throughout the South, the banking
institutions are in sound condition
and although their managers are gen.
orally pursuing careful and conserv-
ativc policies, sound business enter
prises are generally able to obtain
all of the credit needed.
From most localities come reports
that Southern farmers are in a pros
porous condition, and have substan-
tial bank accounts. In the United
States as whole and especially in
the Southern section, agriculture IS
tie predominant industry. Last years
CROP were sold at remuncrative
prices. largely as result of the
purchasing power of the farmers, re-
tail trade ia most Southern communi-
ties is fairly a.tive In those loca!
tiles where cotton mill employees an?
other industrial workers ere most
numerous, there has, of course, been
more or less falling off in retail bus-
mess as a result of the industrial de-
preston. As in all other sections
there is tendency on the part of re-
tail dealers in all lines to buy very
conservatively and reduce their stock
for goods. This necessarily has the
effect of curtailing the business OF
jobbers, who in turn are conserva-
tive in their purchases from manu-
facturers, and this, in turn, tends to
accentuate the industrial depression.
"That the depression should have
been so widespread and serious is
due, l think, not so much to funda-
mental unfavorable economic condl-
tions as to the general uncertainty as

tate to characterize as outrageous

to be expected from Judge Pritchard,
who allowed the other side some time
ago to tie up the entire fund with

Ansel gently but firmly maintained
his usual attitude of silence. Asked
whether he would object to going as
far as to say that an extra session
is possible, he replied: "My y answer
to all questions is that 1 shall have
absolutely nothing to say one way
or the other touching any phase OF
the situation" 1t has been intimat-
ed from time to time that Governor
Ansel has been usurping the prero-
sratives of the attorneys in the case,
but at present he seems to be follow
ing their lead entirely. He has been
studying the case constantly as an at
torney as we'll as from his viewpoint
as Governor, but he seems content to
follow the advice of the Attorney
Generals office. No important moe

ceivers within the next few days. 1t
is thought the commission will be
given ample time to decide on wheth-
er to give the bond, to choose between
giving the bond and going to Jail for

MANY LIVES LOST
Thirty-six Men Lose Their Lives
When the Torpedo Boat Destroyer
Tiger and the Cruiser Berwick Col
lide Off the British Coast.

Portsmouth, Eng, By Cable
Thirty-six men, including Lieutenant
| Middleton, the commander Of the
torpedo boat destroyer Tiger, lost
their lives in the collision off the
[sle-of Wight Friday night between
that vessel and the British cruiser
Berwick. The vessels belong to the
Portsmouth division Of the British
home fleet and were engaged in
night manoeuvres in the channel
while on their way to Portland. The
night was very dark and the Ber-
wick was steaming slowly. When
The destroyer attempted to cross the
big cruisers bow she was caught
amidships and cut in half with
knifc-like precision, sinking almost
immediately.
The deck crew, who were dressed
IN heavy oil skins and boots, went
down with the vessel, not having
lime to free themselves from these
heavy encumbrances. Of the % men
who were rescued most of them
were engineers and stokers, who:
having light clothing, were able to
keep themselves ahoat until boats
from other ships, which were i'm
nediately launched, picked them up.
The collision occurred at $40
o'clock at night. The ships were
nanoeuvring without lights. II is
believed that several of the men
we're killed by the impact. Tugs
were dispatched to the scene Of the
disaster at daylight.
The smaller naval vessels were in
the midst of an attack on their big
ger consorts when thc disaster oc-
cured. The entire feet was under
masked lights, and in the absolute
darkness the Tiger was suddenly
struck square amidships by the Ber-
wick. The stem of this vessel, to
use the words Of an eye witness, cut
the destroyer in two as if she had
been made of paper. The forward
half sank instantaneously and the
sea became dotted with struggling
men.
Most Of them, however, sank be-
fore help could reach them. The
warships in the immediate vicinity
quickly had their boats overheard
and the scene Of the tragedy was bril-
liantly Illuminated by a concentra-
lion of searches. After the accident
the Tiger foated for minute or two,
just long enough to enable those on

of the platform consumed the great
er part of the day. The discus
sion of the money plank was long,
but all the oratory went for naught
as the plank adopted was that recon-
mcnded by the resolutions commit
tee.
The platform was adopted as re.
ported from the committee on reso-
lu:ions.
At meeting of the new national
committee, James H. Ferris, of Joliet,
ILL.,, was reelected chairman and Jay
W. Forrest of Albany, N. Y, was
chosen vice chairman.
The platform, after setting forth
that the government has been con-
trolled SO MS to place the rights of
property above the rights Of human
ity, and that financial combinations
have exercised too much power over
Congress, gives the position of the
party on finance as follows:
"Thc issuing of money is fame
tior of the government and should
not be delegated to corporation or
individual. The constitution gives to
Congress alone the power ito issue
money and regulate the valued there
of. We, therefore. demand that all
money shall be issued by the govern
ment direct to the people without the
Intervention of banks and be full le-
gal tender for all debts, public and
private and in quantities to supply
the necessity of the country. We
demand that postal savings banks be
instituted for the savings of the peo-
pie"
Alien ownership of public lands is
opposed, and lands now held by
aliens or by corporations which have
violated the conditions of their grants
| should be restored to the public do
main.
Government ownership of railroads
is urged on the ground that that pol
iey would prevent unjust discrimina-
tions. Also that in order to per-
feet the postal service the govern
ment of conditions of the wage earn
general telegraph and telephone sysr
TENS and provide a parcels post.
The platform favors the enactment
