inquiry Into Death of Lieutenant
Will Be Searching One.

At the second inquiry into the kill
ing of Lieutenant James n. Sutton be-
fore a board of investigation in Ann.
anolis. Md. the real strength Of the
evidence collected by the mother Of
the dead lieutenant and his sister,
Mrs. Rose Sutton Parker, will develop.
Mrs. Sutton and Mrs. Parker have de-
clared that the young naval officer was
murdered and that they expect to
prove so beyond a doubt. They now
have all the opportunity they require
to bring forth their proof.
One report has it that a new and a
strong witness will be produced in
Thomas Lee, a foreman Waterman at
the academy, whose testimony was not
heard at the first inquiry. The report
has it that Lee has told his TRENDS
that he heard five shots at the time
the fight between Sutton and his
brother officers took place on the
dump.
1t is also said that documentary ev1.
deuce will be submitted showing that
Sutton was challenged to q duel. This
information is contained in q letter
which Tell INTO the po97S2"AoH VI -
Parker. The talk is that the letter
was signed by one of Sutton's fellow
officers, and an Annapolis man, a
banker, who confirms the existence OF
the letter, declares that it closes with
these words: Il will meet you and
fight you if you so desire; but for
Gods sake let US cut out the firearms
and fight it out like men,
The inquiry will be OF the most
thorough nature and a number of wit
nesses will be examined extensively

SEA WALL SAVES GALVESTON.
Hurricane Attacks City, but Barrier
Keeps Out Sea.

Attacked by a hurricane almost as
severe as that which killed thousands
of persons and practically wrecked
every building in the city, Galveston
on Wednesday w~eathered the storm
with a loss of life thought to have
been only sixteen, and without greater
property loss than would nave attend
ed the storm had it struck any other
city of equal size.
Not a life was lost in Galveston
proper, so far as is known, but the
hurricane demolished a new tarpon
fishing pier on the north jetty, across
the bay, six miles from the city. It
was here that the fatalities occurred,
and it is thought that there were only
thirteen guests on the pier. These
persisted, with Capt. Bettison, the man
ager, and his wife and daughter. FIT
ty other fishermen had a narrow es
cape from the fate that overlook the
guests at the new pier.
Galveston is assured now of it's
practical immunity from another dis
aster like that of 1900. A general feel
ing of confidence has resulted from the
splendid action of the sea wall, which
resisted the onslaught of the sea, back
ed by the hurricane which peat in vain
on the concrete wall seventeen feet
high surrounding the city on the gulf
side of the island.
