The Graft Charges

Officer Thomas Linville, who is one
of the men charged with graft, the
specific instance alleged being that he
took $40 from the hop head" Ricketts,
a year or two ago, cheerfully admits
THAT he die take the money. "Oficer
Thompson and took Ricketts, out Of
the Chinese joint, where he was
stupid from the drug" says Mr.. Lin
vile. we placed him under arrest
and told him that he could go to jail
or, if he could put up $40 as bonds, he
need not show up until police court
time. He had the money and either
Officer Thompson or took the
money. And the records at the police
station viii show that Officer Thom2-
son put up the bail money, and that
when Ricketts, failed to show up in
court the next day the Judge duly de-
elared the $40 forfeited. That's what
became of the $40" The police rec
ords corroborate the officers state
ment, which Of course apparently dis
poses of the charge. At that time
officers were permitted to take bail
in such cases away from the police
station Thus it would appear as ii
this charge against Linville is found
ed upon misunderstanding Of the
facts of the case.

Lake Steamer John B CowIe
Sunk In a Collision.
DISASTER OCCURS IN A FOG
Vessel Goes to Bottom Three
- Minutes After Crash.

Sault Ste. Marie. Mich, July 13.-
Three minutes after the steel steam
er Isaac VI. Scott and John 3. Cowle
collided in Lake Superior about a mile
and half off Whitefsh Point light
house, the Cowle went to the bottom
In fifty fathoms of water carrying
with her fourteen members Of her
crew. Tie Scott, although badly
damaged about the bows, put back to
this port, where she arrived with part
of the crew of the Cowle.
A heavy fog was responsible for
the collision. The Scott. new boat
on her maiden trip to the Head Of
the Lakes, had just passed the light
at Whitefish Point, and Strengthened
cut her course up the lake when sud-
denly the John B. Cowle doomed up
through the fog, broadside on to the
Scott and only few feet away. The
Cowle was down bound with 5000
tons of iron ore.
The ships were so close that 1t was
impossible to avoid collision, and the
Scott crashed into the side of the
heavily laden Cowls. 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 the lake.
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. The rest
of the crew who were saved jumped
from the sinking steamer into the
lake, some without life preservers,
and were picked up by the Scott and
the steamer Goodyear, which was a
short distance astern of the Scott
when the collision occurred.
