20 LIVES LOST AT SEA.
Graphic Story of Marine Disaster
Reaches Mobile.

A graphic story of marine dis
aster, which cost the lives of 90
persons. when the steamer Nicholas
Castania. en- route from Havana to
Cienfuegos. foundered off the coast
or the Isle OF Pines on the night Of
August %, last. reached Mobile a
few days ago. Meagre news of the
disaster was given by the Associated
Press August 81
The crew numbered twenty-seyen
officers and sailors. Eighteen human
bodies have been recovered. The
missing eleven are believed To have
become the victims of sharks. All
the bodies recovered were in ter
rible decomposed state and identifi-
cation was impossible.
"A government commission. after
examination. reported that the i'm
mediate cause of the wreck was the
simultaneous explosion of the steam
er's battery of boilers. combined with
violent conclusion of the steamer
on the rocks. whittier she had been
thrown by the gale and tidal wave.
The crew and passenger list OF
the Nicholas Castania shows no
names of women, but among the per
sonal effects which showed the wear
and tear of use were a number OF
feminine articles of wearing apparel
and children's shoes. .

Sanguinary Duel Of Sisters-in-Law in Chi
cago Apartment House.
BOTH DIE In STRUGGLE
Mrs. Julia Tripp and Mrs. Jacob
Silvers Perish I'm Hand-to-hand
Combat With Pistol and Knife.
They Lived i'm the Same House and
Had Frequently Quarrels.

Mrs. Julia Tripp and her sister,
in-law. Mrs. Jacob Silvers OF New
York, are both dead as the result OF
pistol and knife duel between ths
two women In Mrs. Tripp's apart
ments at Fifty-sixth street and Prai-
rie avenue, fashionable residence
district of Chicago. 1t is said Mrs.
Stlvers' husband left her about three
months ago because Of her peculiar
actions. Mrs. Trip was the wife IF
a superintendent OF a manufacturing
firm OF Chicago.
There were ten bullet wounds and
enc cut on the body OF Mrs. Tripp
Mrs. Silvers had a bullet wound In
the chest and several knife slash
es. Only one revolver was found in
the apartments, but eight empty
shells indicating that the revolver
was emptied and reload,d during the
struggle. The furnishings o ( tn.
apartments were in disorder and in
every room there wers evidences OF
desperate struggle.
Mrs. Tripp was fully dressed but
MRS. Silver was in ler unierc'othipg.
Mrs. Silver had been staying Mt the
Trip home for about month, and
the two women are said to have had
frequent quarrels principally over
the division OF household duties.
one strange feature OF the case
Is that no one heard any shots. The
appeals for help were heard, hut
no one made any attempt to enter
the apartments until after the polio,
had been called.
Shortly after 3 o'clock In the
afternoon Mrs. Trip appeared in the
hallway in the front of her apart-
ment screaming for help.
Il am being murdered In here,"
she shouted
At almost the same time a woman
IN blood streaked night gown was
seen at the rear entrance OF the
apartment by the janitor. Come
QUICK and save me-" she cried. T
am being killed"
When the apartment was entered
blood was found on the parlor cur
taln' and several pictures had been
broken and chairs overturned. II
a bed room off the parlor Mrs.
lripp was found lying on the floor
tuily dressed. Her face and waist
were covered with blood and a pool
mad formed beneath her. She was
dead.
Separated from this bed rom bv
poruers was another room. Mrs
Slivers lay on the bed in this room
and her night gown and the he'd
dlothts were covered with blood
.'iood was gushing from deep cut
III her forehead. She was uncon-
scious and died later.
AT Mrs. Silvers' right side was a
revolver and on the floor were a
number of empty shells. Search OF
the rooms failed to disclose the knife
with which the cuts had been made.

The collision occurred about s
O'Clock and was between passenger
train No. 4. westbound, and fast
freight No. 81, en- route 10 Nash
vile. The wreckage at once caught
fire. The baggage. mail, express
and smoking cars OF the passenger
train and several of the freight cars
were burned. But one bag of mail
was saved. Through the almost SUI
perhuman strength exerted by the
passengers the three day coaches
and the Pullman were pushed from
the fire and saved.
1t is the general impression
among passengers and the trainmen
that the fault was with the passeng-
er crew, as an order to meet at Peg
ram had been issued. and the wreck
occurred west of that station.

WILL HAVE TO WAIT.
No Money to be Had for the Man.
ayers of State Election.

The Florence Times says those who
hold claims against the State for
the last election are doomed to dis
appointment. II was thought that
being special election. the managers
would be paid out of the small ap-
preparation made by the last legisla-
ture, but there were too many cleo
tions a head of Florence county, and
the appropriation was only $500. Sc
that the creditors of the State In
this county will have to line up with
those In the other counties and wait
the appropriation of the next legis-
lature to collect their claims. The
editor of the Times went over to
Columbia to try and get this money
for the managers In Florence coun-
ty; but was obliged to return empty
handed. Bond issue elections and
other sUedial elections have been
held in a number of counties and that
exhausted the funds. No county In
which special elections were held al
the same time as the dispensary cleo
ton was held can draw money, since
some had to be put out. all dispen-
sary counties were put on the same
footing.
