Expedition Hunting for
 Rivers Victims.
10 CHANGE TO DRAG STREAM
Mach Speculation as to Fifth
 Man.
yAsss AeSuaintea With River Think Deaies Drowned Wednesday
 Wall Be Found Many Miles Dswn stream.

To search for the bodies of the five who were drowned in the Alabama river Wednesday morning. an expedi- tion will be started this morning with . steam launch, beafing Mrs. R. w. King. of Atlanta, mother of Tom liar per. one of the i've, and two brothers tuf Willie billiard. another of the ill., fated party.
 Mrs. King reached Montgomery Thursday, leaving Atlanta at the first intimation of the tragedy. w. T. Dil- lard. father of Willie billiard, also came from Atlanta with the train up on which he served as conductor.
 There Is held to be little probability. however. by those who know the Ala banna river and its ways, that the bodies will be brought to the surface before the next day or two. And then, if the weather grows colder, the bodies will remain submerged even longer.
 ' It is held that the three white boys. and Dick Johnson. the negro, sank near the centre of the stream, where the flood torrent was at the swiftest, and that their bodies have sunk to rem4in for several days.
 The body of Bob Goodwin, the old one-armed ferryman. sank nearer the Montgomery shore, and his. according to the usages of nature, will probably be the first to rise.
 The expectation Is that the bodies will be found many miles down the river. as they were caught by the swift current almost as they sank
 There is no possibility of dragging the river for the remains, with any accuracy. because of the speed of the current, and the swollen volume of the stream. The search for the bodies will, therefore. be restricted at pres ent to . survey of the waters over which the launch with the searchers travels.
 Speculation Is rife relative to the number of the occupants of the boat when 1t capsized. The most of the eye-wftnesses contend that there were live. while othrs declare there were only four. One negro who saw the tragedy, states that billiard. Harper, Bob and Dick Johnson embarked in the bateau at the landing at the end of the tunnel. He says that they pad dled up-stream. and that, as they touched the shore several hundred feet up. fifth white man. clad in blue overails. stepped in to join them.
 The presence of the fifth man pro- unces the mystery. His identity was not, known to any of the few who saw him. and there must ensue a wait until the bodies rise to the surface before he can be identified So far there has been no one to sound the alarm Of man missing.

Right foot first, said Spenser quietly.
When that is firmly fixed, throw all your
right again. Hold the pick breast high"
So" cried Karl, appreciativelv watching
her first successful effort.
A Spenser was lowering himself into the Gre
= vase, he heard something that set his
nimble wits agog Stampa. the valiant and
light hearted Stampa. the genial companion
who had laughed and tested even when they
were crossing an ice slope on the giant Monte
della Dlsgrazia.-a traverse of precarlous cling
ing where a slip meant death thousand feet
belOw.-was mutter1ng strangely at Bower.
'.Sehaeinhnud!" he was saving, if any evil
befas the fydnlein, ! shall drive my ak between
Your shoulder blades
There was no reply. Spenser was sure he was
not mistaken. Though the guide spoke German,
he knew enough of that language to understand
this comparatively simple sentence. Quite as
amazing as Stampas threat was Bower silent
acceptance Of it. He began to piece together
some f1eeting impressions of the curious wrangle
between the two outside the hut He recalled
Bowers extraordinary change of tone when
told that man named Christian Stampa had
followed him from Maloggia.
Helen was Just taking another confident step
forward and down, balancing herself with grace
tul assurance. Spenser had few seconds in
which to steal backward glance. and flash of
lightning happened to glimmer on Bowers fea-
lures. The American was not gwen to fanC1tul
imaginings but during many wild hour in
the Far West he had seen the baleful frown of
murder on mans face too often not to reCog-
nize it now. Yet he was helpless. He could
neither speak nor act on a mere opinion. He
could only watch and be on his guard From
that moment he tried to observe every move
nlent. not only of Helen but of Bower.
To be continued next Sunday.
