SIX FOUND DEATH IN
 WORK OF RESCUING

Providence. R. l., Jan. 27.--Their last act. an attempt to save the crew of the tug M. E. Scully from death by drown ing. four men and two women perished off Delaware breakwater last Saturday morning, where the barge White Band. bound from Newport News for this city, sank during the terrible gale which swept the coast. The story Of inc loss of the White Band and her crew was told by Captain Henry w. Gregg of the Scully, when the tug ar- rived in port today with the barge New Jersey in tow.
 The scully, bound from Newport News for Providence with the barges White Band and New Jersey, both coal laden. in tow, when off Delaware break water Friday night ran into terrific northwest gale. The New Jerseys crew cut the hawser and anchored, while the Seully hove to, with the White Band still fastened to the hRw- ser, Owing to snow it was impossible to see more than a few feet or to corn- municate with the barge. During the night the captain of the Scully felt the hawser part and examination showed that 1t had been cut on the White Bands end of the line. It is believed on board the scully that when the cap- tain and cEew of the White Band knew their craft Was sinking they deliberate ly cut the hawser to save the Scully from being dragged beneath the sea. When the Seully finally was able to proceed to sea again she found a lot of wreckage which was positively identi- fed as belonging to the White Band.

 The loss ls estimated at many thou sand dollars. No one was killed. al- capes from death.
 There was a fierce play of lightning for several minutes before the cyclone canns and all was still for few mo- ments when suddenly the fury of the wind came down wrecking everything in It's path. Houses and barns were torn to pieces. The path of the cyclone was narrow and 1t is due to this fact that the damage was not greater.
 At Hokes Bluff the barn of Mansel Simpson was blown down, the chimney of the dwelling was thrown down and the end of that building was badly dA1naged. Three bales of seed cotton in the barn were blown away and no sign of them was left.
 The dwelling of WIII Thompson at Ball Play was wrecked and the dwell- ing of VIII Pollard, together with his sin were also badly damaged.

MITCHELL OPPOSED TO
 SYMPATHETIc STRIKES


 Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 27--President Mitchell announced to the convention of the United Mine Workers of America today that he did not desire to hold any office in the organization after his retirement as President on April.
 This will stop. a movement to have him placed at the head of an advisory board. He asked that his friends give their royal and undivided support to his successor.
 W. D. Haywood. Secretary asd Treas urer of the Western Federation of Miners, addressed tho convention. He referred feeiingly to the appreciation of Mover. Pettibone and himseIf for the action of the labor element of the country which had contributed sSoo.- 900 to their defense. Haywood at- tributed, all of the strikes and troubles in the western lead. coal and gold mines to the operators failure to keep their contracts with the miners. He charged the operators with destruction of property by the use of explosives in order to prejudice public opinion and lay the blame on the miners. He painted graphic pictures of the bull pens" by the slate and military author ities which he said have been subser- vient to the operators.
 Colorado" he said. "is as mean as ali the other states boiled down. Cor porations control the courts there. de- bauch the legislatures and run the elections to suit themselves"
 Mir. Haywood pleaded for a closer relationship between the Western Federation of Miners and the United Mine workers of America. President Mitchell addressed the convention when MT Haywood closed. He declared him self to be opposed to sympathetic strikes. T have watched labor troubles and conditions so closely as any man." said he: q have not seen any benefit accrue from sympathetic strikes. Should the Western Fedora ton of Miners ask us to go on strike to aid their strike. we would ask natually what will we get out of it7 What good i'll accrue to us?' I do not see that 1t would do us any good to have the netalliferous miners on a strike if we coal miners were out on a strike. Coal can be mined when gold miners are not working but gold can cannot be mined if there is no coal" Mir Mitchell urged miners to continue the contract system.

 A @saedicai Man,
 The third of the foreign witnesses Co be called was Dr. Frederick J. Burton Browne of London. formerly of the India medical service, and for time practicing physician in Rome. pr Burton Browne constantly referred to himself as "medical man" rather than a doctor. it was in March, l0s2. that the witness was called to attend Thaw in Rome. He diagnosed the case as one of simple mild mania. There was no evidence of alcoholism. District At torney Jerome. on ross-examination, asked:
 "IIow long did Thaw's mania iast7"
 About thirtyssix hours" That's all {"
 Next came Dr. Maurice oauja of Paris. who gave his testimony through the official court interpreter. He at tended Thaw in Paris in theespring of 1904. when he attempted suicide by swallowing 1audanum. pr. Gauja de- scribed Thaw's condition. but said he had not diagnosed 1t as laudanum pol soning. At first he thought 1t was ptomane poisosing. Mr. Littleton here announced that with the exception of testimony of the foreign witnesses, who had just testified, the hypothetical question for the experts was complete University was sworn. and it was agreed that the question should be read to him, and Drs. Charles c. Wag- ner of Binghamton, N. r.. and Britton D. Evans of Morris Plains, N. J., at the same time.
 MT. Littleton began to read the ques- ton to the experts and to the jury at utes only when the luncheon recess was ordered.
 Mr. Littleton resumed the reading of the hypothetical question at 2:45 ?. m. He concluded at $40 D. m., having oc- cupied an hour and i've minutes Elto- gether in it's reading.
 pr. Wagner Teetifes.
 A half hour recess followed ana then pr. Charles e. Wagner. Superintendent of the State Hospital for the Insane at Binghamtons N. Y., was called to the stand. Dr. Wagner said that as the result of his examinations of Thaw in the Tombs, he concluded the. defendant was of unsound mind. In answer to the hypothetical question. Dr. Wagner said he believed from the facts set forth therein that Harry Thaw, on the night of June 25. 1906, when he shot and killed Stanford White. was suf- fering from such defect of reason as not to know the nature or quality of his act or that the act was wrong.
 pr. Wagner was asked to explain maniac depreseive Insanity to the jury. one of the foreign physicians hay ing applied this term to Thaw's out breaks abroad. The witness said it was a circular form of insanity where periods of maniacal violence were fol- lowed by spells of depression or mel ancholia and then by period of san ity, the same process recurring from time to time.
 Justice Bowling put series of very important questions to the witness, ev- idently for the purpose of his own guidance in the event of a verdict of acquittal on the ground of insanity when 1t was In the discretion of the court to commit the defendant to an asylum for the criminal insane.a
