RIVER HIDES CORPSES
VICTIMS OF AUTOS PLUNGE INTO
RIVER ARE UNIDENTIFIED.
Police and Fire Boats Are Aided in
Search for Bodies by a City
Diver

CHICAGO, H., Nov. S.-Search for
the bodies of the occupants of the auto
mobile which plunged into the Chicago
river at the east approach of the Jack
son boulevard bridge Sunday night was
resumed today by the police force, fire
boats ana a diver. The identity of the
victims and the number of persons who
lost their lives is unknown.
it was at first thought that the auto
mobile belonged to James Il. CosgriSs of
Salt Lake City, Utah. who left the Con
gress hotel with a party of friends a
short time before the accident occurred
on the way to the Union station, but it
was later learned that the Cosgriss party
were safe and that the machine belonged
to j. w. Schretfier. 1t is said to be one
of the machines he has for hire and was
In charge of Ernest Camp.
The most plausible theory regarding
the accident now is that Camp had been
engaged by a party to make Il sight
seeing trip and had accidentally driven
into the river. The accident is similar to
two previous ones which have occurred
here within the last few years and which
resulted in the loss of four lives.

ELIOT MAKES APPEAL.
President of National Conservation As
ISOLATION Declares Steps Must Be
Taken Against Power Barons,

NEW YORK, Nov. S.-Dr. Charles
W. Eliot, rs president of the National
Conservation association, said today:
THE association is convinced of the
urgent need Of immediate measures to
prnycnt the control of the great sources
Of heat aud mechanical power of the
United States from being seized by
w,fiouolis,ic organizations and to secure
the best development of these sources III
the interest Of the whole people. These
sources are water falls and coal. Under
the existing laws, the wisest development
is practically impossible.
we, therefore, appeal to the Ameri-
can people to bring the urgent needs of
the situation to the attention of their
representatives in Congress, in order
that comprehensive legislation upon this
vital matter may be enacted at the next
session of Congress. To this end every
individual citizen is urged to do his part,
aud To act at once"

TWO ARE ASPHYXIATED.
Aged Woman and Adopted Son Lie Dead
Three Days.

GAINESVILLE, Wis. Nov S.-Neigh-
bors Sunday morning broke into the home
of Mrs. james Simpson, Il widow aged
50, who lived with her adopted son,
Charles Eunson, and found them both
dead An open gas stop in the gas stove
and the oder showed death had been
caused by asphyXiation.
The woman was undressed in bed. al
though signs showed she had tried to
rise. The man was seated in the kitchen
with a glass and bottle Of whisky near
him fully dressed. 1t is thought he had
attempted to neat some water for Il
hot tOddy and fell asleep after turning
on the gas without lighting il.
The couple was last seen Wednesday
night, when Eunson came home drunk
and was helped into the house by the
woman. Papers of Thursday, Friday
and Saturday on the porch and the con
dition of bodies substantiate this theory.
The man came into prominence some
two years ago through a row with the
police during n fight in resisting arrest
and his skull was fractured. He sued
for $4,000 damages, Milwaukee firm
