No Reference to Accidents.

AS no reference was made TO any ac-
cidents or setbacks. 1t is the official be-
lief that there had been no collision be-
tween the Georgia and another vessel of
the fleet or, If such thing actually
happened. 1t was attended with no Sc
rious results.
II has been decided that eight battle
ships OF Admiral Sperry's fleet shall be
sent TO their home navy yards few da VS.
after they have been reviewed by the
President in Hampton roads. The re-
mainig eight will be kept at anchor there
until after the first week in March. just
which of the vessels are to be detached
from the fleet and sent to their navy

Department has sent a wireless message
TO Admiral Sperry asking him to desig-
nate the ships which shall remain. 1t is
certain that the Illinois. kearsarge and
Kentucky will be three of the eight and

Why Cost Was Increased.

:. The cost of the lock canal will be
perhaps half a billion dollars. The adj
vance in the cost from the first estimate
is caused by the increase in the price Of

under the United States eight-hour law.
and the fact that the canal is to he

Mr. Taft says that the original French
plans called for locks on the seaboard.
but that American engineers from the
start placed the locks well away from
the coast as an ordinary common-sense
precaution. Nothing known the

Mr. Taft found nothing in the admin

First Message Received.

This is the first wireless communication
received on this side of the Atlantic from
the feet or any vessel accompanying it
since the departure from Gibraltar. Re-
ceiving stations in this vicinity have thus
achieved remarkable record in the last
twenty-four hours in picking up messages
from both the Atlantic and the Pacific
fleet. communication from the battle
ship New Hampshire. somewhere in
southern waters. having been picked UP
by the Coney Island station of the United
Wireless Company last night.
According to the longitude and latitude
as given by the dispatch from the fleet
the battleships are about 1850 miles
west of Gibraltar, with the Yankton p45
miles ahead. This places the Yankton
only $40 miles east of Bermuda and the
fleet little over 1000 miles from Hamp-
ton roads

The schedule as announced before the
departure of the vessels from Gibraltar
was that the fleet would reach Hampton
roads about February - or %. but If their

Further Communication Tonigh'

IA IAC1 AIs
Doubt was expressed at the navy wire
less station at Fire Island today if any
further message from the Yankton would
be received during the day. In fact. it
was said that communication with her
was practically impossible at that dis
tance In the daytime, as there are too
many wireless currents working.
After receiving this mornings message
from the Yankton the navy station noti-
midnight tonight when the conditions for
communication will be most advantage

from vessel of the returning fleet will
come i'm the early hours of tomorrow.
Wireless messages were received at
the Navy Department this morning from
the Atlantic fleet. now on the last leg
of its cruise around the world. These
messages We're received at the stations

ton, which received some of them from

prevailed and the fleet was making about

The Yankton. which preceded the feet

FREE SHARP; TIED ON COOPtRS
Jury in Carmack Murder Trial Is Sent
Back for Further De.
alterations.

Nashville. Tenn, March 21.-When
the Jury yesterday returned a verdict
Of ~acquittal for John d. Sharp, charg-
ed with the murder Of former United
States Senator Z. w. CarmAck n
declared it was "hopelessly tied up as
TO the Coopers," 1t was generally n
coded that the end Of the famous
case had been reached. Nothing
daunted by the expressive f1rmness OF
Foreman Burke's declaration of dis
agreement, Judge Hart sent the
twelve men out for further delivera-
ton and announced that he would not
discharge them until he was absolute
ly convinced that an agreement could
not be reached. The Jurors looked
tired, worn and Ill at ease. From
the loud talking heard in the room,
they have been having a strenuous
time. They are chatting under the re-
straint, too. but evidently are consci-
~entious in their determination to vote
with their convictions. In response
to the judges question as to whittier
a verdict had been reached, Burke re-
piled: We are tied up tight as to
the Coopers, but we find John D.
Sharp not guilty"
Judge Hart quickly dismissed Sharp
and ordered the jury to continue its
deliberations as to the guilt or limo
cense of the COopers.
