FOURTEEN ARE DROWNED
IN LAKE COLLISION
Steamers Crash in Dense Fog
Near Sault Ste. Marie.
THE JOHN W. coWLE SINKS
Victims Had No Time to Escape
Captain Rogers and Other Sur.
vivors Leap Into Water-Picked
Up by Crippled Boat.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. - Three
minutes after the steel steamers Isaac
M. Scott and John B. Cowle had met
in collision in Lake Superior, about a
mile and a half off Whitefish Point
Lighthouse, the Cowle had gone to
the bottom in fifty fathoms of water,
carrying with her fourteen members
of her crew. The Scott, although
barely damaged about the bows, put
back to this port with part of the
crew of the Cowle.
Following are the names Of the
drowned:
John McKernain, engineer, Brook
Ign. N. Y; Morian, second engineer,
Buffalo; MILFORD Emerson, wheels
man, Superior, Wis; Patten, oiler,
Adams, N. Y; Boder, deck hand, Two
Harbors, Mimi; Johnson and Porter,
Two Harbors, MINI; Seymour Higgs,
fireman, Belleville, N. Y; Woodward,
fireman, Adams, N. Y; FRANKLIN,
fireman, Adams, N. Y; John Lane,
deck hand, Adams, N. Y; fireman,
name unknown, Hancock, Mich; two
deck hands, names unknown.
A heavy fog was responsible for
the collision. The Scott, a new boat,
on her maiden trip to the head of the
lakes, had just passed the light at
Whitefish Point and Strengthened out
her course up the lake, when snd-
denly the John B. Cowle doomed up
through the fog, broadside on to the
Scott and only a few feet away. The
Cowle was down-bound with 5000
tons of iron ore In the hold.
The ships were SO close that it was
impossible to avoid a collision, and
the Scott crashed into the side of the
heavily laden Cowle. For fifteen
feet the bow of the Scott penetrated
the side of the Cowle. Tons of water
rushed into the great opening, and in
three minutes the Cowle had settled
to the bottom of Lake Superior.
Immediately after the collision a
line was thrown from the deck of the
Scott to the forward deck of the
Cowle, and three members of the
crew escaped to the deck of the up
bound boat by this means. Captain
Rogers and others of the crew who
were saved jumped from the sinking
steamer into the lake and were
picked up by the Scott and the
steamer Goodyear, which was a short
distance asteTn of the Scott when the
collision occurred.
The John B. Cowle was AS feet
long, fifty feet beam and owned by
the Cowle Transit Company, of Cleve-
land. The Cowle went into commits
sion in 1902.

FLOOD HELD $4,000
IN KANSAS CITY.
Many Women With Only Enough
Money For Journey.
THOUSANDS SLEEP AT STATION
Traffic Being Observation-Disclosures
Continues to Rise at st. Louis
Crop Damage Has Been Great
Rich Lands Under Water.

Kansas City, Mo.-Union Station
officials estimated that within the elk
days there had been $4,000 travellers
held in Kansas City because of inefi-
cient train service due to the high
water. 1t is estimated that there
were 10000 persons in the Union
Station in one night. The majority
of these were persons going to other
points and forced to wait here be-
cause of their inability to make train
connections.
Many of them were women who
were travelling with barely enough
money to see them through their
journey. The delay compelled them
to remain here, and many have not
sufficient funds to pay for food and
lodging. Hundreds have slept on
the station benches every night. In
the more urgent cases Mrs. Every
ingham, the station matron, has SOL
icited money with which to buy food.
The railroad permitted passengers
to remain in sleeping cars instead of
going to hotels in the vicinity of the
Union Station, already crowded.
The crowds which have thronged
the station since the train service
was interrupted have been reduced
fully one-half. This was partly due
to the fact that fewer persons are
travelling, but another reason is that
more trains are being operated, and
thousands of travellers who have been
held here for days we're able to get
away.
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe has opened its main line to Chi
cago. The Chicago, Milwaukee and
st. Paul Railway sent a special to
Chicago over its own lines.
c. G. Kline, Santa Fe conductor,
who arrived here, says that his train
started a week ago on its usual run
between Kansas City and Fort Madi-
son, Iowa. His train Went to Chi
cago, used three railroads in getting
there, and in all traversed 1000
miles. The Santa Fe's distance to
Chicago is 458 miles.
The rivers are now falling and
there is no indication of further
floods.
st. Louis, Mo.-The Mississippi
River continued rising here and the
gauge stood at 1914. The food stage
is thirty feet. Water entered many
buildings on the levee.
The greatest damage has been to
crops along the Missouri River be-
tween Jefferson City and st. Charles,
where thousands of acres of rich
farm lands have been flooded and
the crops destroyed.

A Handsome Living.

Col. Roessle once said there may
not be any very large fortunes made
in poultry raising, but there is a
handsome living for any one who has
the love for the pursuit. the ability
to raise and care for the stock, and
a small capital to start with. These
three things must go hand in hand;
separately they cannot bring success.
