Details Of Burning Of Steamer
81. Cuthbert.
TERRIFIC WIND WAS BLOWING
The cymric and the Cambrian Lay by
for Several Hours Awaiting Chance
to Lower Boat to Rescue the
Impcrilled Crew.

NEW YORK, Feb, A wireless
despatch TO the Times from the
steamer Cymric gives details OF the
burning OF the steamer St. Cuthbert.
Soon after the Cymric sighted the
burning vessel the steamer Cambrain
also came UP and the two ships lay
by for several hours awaiting a
chance TO safely lower boat the
terric wind which was blowing at the
time making it impossible for a boat
to live Finally at 2 o'clock the
Cymbric got boat away in command
OF First Officer Stive and with a crew
OF six men, After hard fight with
the waves the boat was brilliantly
handled, succeeded. aided by the "oil
which has been spread on the water
in reaching the side Of the ship. For
10 minutes they lay by before heavy
figure was lowered into the boat fol-
lowed by a second, Then ten men
made their way down the ladder and
into the boat. All were frightfully
burned. The boat returned safely to
the Cymric and the rescued men were
hoisted aboard. The same crew then
made a second and third trip back
to the burning steamer, rescuing 81
men in all. On the last trip the boat
was stove in by a wave and barely
reached the Cymric in safety.
The officers and crew OF the St,
Cuthbert had a terrible story to tell
AT midday Saturday the fire was first
discovered, smoke being seen emerg-
ing from a ventilator. The first Off
Ger rushed to the bridge, where the
captain was, to tell him of the fire,
when almost Immediately terrible
explosion occurred, blowing off all
the matches in the forward part of the
ship and destroying half the bridge
The captain was thrown to the deck

Bonynge Quoted From Democra-
tic Campaign Book Passages
Antagonistic to Roosevelt.
THE PROPER THING TO DO
The Indian Appropriation Bill Was
Scheduled for General Debate,
But it Was Sidetracked to Discuss
the Special Message.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Ar Presi-
dent Rooseyel's message on capital
and labor and on the corporations
and the public was again the theme
Of discussion in the House today.
So great was the demand for time
that general debate on the Indian
appropriation bill, which is pending
that business was extended until to
morrow for four hours more.
The interest in today's proceedings
centered in speech made by John
Sharp Williams, who while lauding
the President for some Of his senti-
ments expressed the belief that others
were dangerous. His remarks on the
financial question prompted lengthy
discussion of that subject by Hill OF
Connecticut in which he opposed the
Aldrich bill After briefly discussing
the financial question, Bonynge called
attention to what he said was the abb
solute insincerity and hypocrisy of
the Democratic party as an organi-
cation in its attitude toward the
President.
He quoted from the last Democra-
tic campaign book passages antago-
nistic to Roosevelt and asked if they
accorded with the present Democratic
commentator of the President
Heretofore Bonynge said Demo-
Gratis had hitherto withheld their
praise OF the Republican statesmen
until they had crossed to the Great
beyond
Ollie James, of Kentucky, asked if
the speaker meant that Democrats
have to wait until Roosevelt died be-
fore applauding his message.
If you desire to pursue the course
you always have" responded Bon
ynge, THAT would be the proper
thing to do
Cochran remarked that the endors-
ing OF one message was distinct from
the endorsement of the administra-
ton.
After agreeing to extend the debate
for four hours tomorrow, the House
adjourned.

ST. PETERSBURG. Feb. 4. = The
visit to America OF Prof. Paul Miluk
off, the leader of the Constitutional
Democrats, and his speech in New
York. which aroused much irritation
in conservative circles, owing to the
denonstrativc character Of his recep-
tion, recently were the subject OF an
article in the semi-oiiicial Rossia, in
which il was asserted that President
Roosevelt's refusal 10 receive him
was not due to the intervention Of
Baron Roscn, Russian ambassador at
Washington, but the initiative came
actively from President Roosevelt
himself, who already had determined
that the recognition OF Prof Miiuk-
off would be too easily construed into
an expression of sympathy for the
Constitutional Democrats.
The Rossia states that President
Roosevelt informed Baron Rosen, as
well as others who broached the
subject of an audience in this case,
as well as the case OF the petition in
behalf OF Nicholas Tschaikovsky, that
in conformity with the custom in Eu-
rope these things could be arranged
only through the accredited ambassa-
dor, The Rossia further asserted that
Secretary Taft and Secretary Root
and assistant Secretary Bacon de-
clined invitations to the dinner to M.
Milukoff at Washington for the
same reason,
In reply to the statement Prof.
Milukoff in an article in the Rech ex-
presses astonishment at such state
ment in government organ. He as
serts that most of the facts are di-
rectly opposite to the allegations in
he Rossia and he points out that he
visited America as an advocate, not
Of terrorism or revolution, but Of
constitutionalism.
NJ, Milukoff probably will be called
70 task by conservatives in the Duma
for his trip. There is some talk also
about governmental prosecution but
this is denied in official circles.

DEFICIENCY BILL PASSED.

WASHINGTON, Feb. a. = The
Senate today passed the urgent defc-
iency bill carrying an appropriation
of over $24,000000. The large dehc-
iency appropriation for the navy
brought out considerable discussion
on the subject of the executive de-
partments making expenditures gnot
provided for by the appropriation.
The deficiency appropriations for the
Panama Canal gave rise to the Demo
cratic publication of a paper by the
Canal Commission at Panama and in
cidentally Teller declared he believed
a lock canal at Panama some day
would be declared a failure and that a
sea-level canal would take its place.
The Senate devoted two hours to a
consideration Of criminal code bill
and adjourned.

DENVER, Feb. 4.-The News to

DENVER, Feb. 4-The News to-
day says:
Mine operators are planning to
establish smelters independent of the
trust The movement has been en-
dorsed by the American Mining Con
gress as the only solution of high
rates exacted by the smelling trust
James +. Callbreath, Jr,, secretary
OF the American Mining Congress, re-
turned ito Denver yesterday, after at
tending meetings of miners interested
in the independent smeltr movement
and held during the past three weeks
in Helena, Seattle, Los Angeles and
Salt Lake City, He says that mine
operators in all these districts have
their plans well prepared and are at
the point of erecting plants of a later
and more economical type than those
operated by the trust,
Secretary Callbreath says that
during the conference in Helena, the
Montana mining men subscribed
100000 to build an independent smell
ter on the corporation plan. He
further explained that the operators
of Southern California has. already
gone SO far as to purchase an old
smelling plant which will be remod-
eled and enlarged sufficiently to
handle all the smelling of that dis
trict, He also says that the Utah
Mineowners and leasers who will
soon control their own smelters,
have practically reached an agree
ment on liberal freight rates with
railroads running into the mining dis
tricts of that state. The cooperative
smelter will probably be stationed at
Ogden,
plans are under woy to assemble
the principal mining interests in Colo
rado in the next few weeks when the
first steps will be taken toward the
accumulation Of enough capital to
begin the smelling business"

WASHINGTON, Feb. 4. That
the cost OF printing at the govern
ment printing Office for tn, various
executive departments of the govern
ment has increased during the admin
istration of Charles S. Stillings, the
present public printer, is shown in the
report made to President Roosevelt
By George c. Havenner, chief of the
division Of printing in the department
of Commerce and Labor. The in
creased cost varies from 2 or per
cent to more than 100 per cent on
various classes of matter, and the in
creases apply to every department of
the government, Mr.. Havennor's in
yestigation showed that the cost Of
composition, for instance, had in
creased nearly 40 per cent, notwith-
standing that the best modern facili-
ties are employed in the government
printing Office. The cost OF nearly
every other line of work incident to
the production of printed documents
showed like increase, and in some
instances very much greater in
crease.
While admitting that the cost of
printing and binding for the depart
ments show an increase, Public Prin-
ter Stillings says that the cost OF
manufacture applied in the past was
purely theoretical and that the system
he now has in force enables him to
determine the absolute value Of the
output.
President Roosevelt has directed
the public printer to submit report
to him respecting Mr.. Havener's
findings.

NEW YORK, Feb 4--For the last
week reports have reached one or
two large banks 10 the effect that
some one was calling up depositors
on the telephone and telling them ths
bank in which they had deposits was
abon ito close. The attacks seemed
to be directed mainly toward one OF
the large banks, although several
others were also mentioned The
American Bankers Association has
now taken the matter up and private
detectives as well as portion Of the
city detective force have been put to
work on the case. The banks in
question are entirely solvent and the
telephone messages have been sent
with the evident intention Of starting
runs. 1t is the general opinion in
baHking circles that the rumors are
being spread for the purpose Of af-
fecting the stock market. II is Of
course next to impossible to trace the
sender OF the messages but if he or
they can be found, criminal prosecu-
tions will follow. Spreading false Es-

G. Hayes appeared before him and
desired TO complain about the Thayer
frauds and he (Sladen) took Hayes to
Mays and introduced them The date
OF the introduction was year before
the date Mays testified he became
aware that the Thayer conspiracy

ness of attempting to prosecute the
Thayer frauds. The defense recalled
Bristol and he reiterated his previous
testimony, again stating unqualiedly
tha the never had an interview with
Hendricks before the iatter's eonvic-
tion and that he never signed a tele-
gram to Heney regarding immunity
for Hendricks.
On cross-examination Heney got
Bristol considerably mixed on dates
OF various events that took place
about that same time, and ended by
suggesting that as Bristol was mis-
taken on these subjects it was barely
possible he was in error regarding
