PEARY READY TO HIT COOK
Says He Had Rival Watched During
Polar Trim

New York, Oct. 11-Commander
Peary's carefully prepared broadside
wherewith he hopes to discredit Or.
Cooks claim as polar discoverer, is
about ready for publication.
1t is said that it contains maps
made by Cooks Eskimos of distances
Travelled by them while in his con-.
pany, statements of other Eskimos
about what Cook had told them, and
observations of the Peary party.
Among other things the document
which the commander hopes will
knock out DR. Cooks claim, is said to
contain a statement that the Cook ex-
petition left this city two years ago
with the determination to return with
the assertion of polar discovery.
With this in mind, Commander
Peary as he is expected to assert laid
his plans to combat claims of the
Brooklyn physician before the Roose-
cit last set sail for the polar seas 1t
is asserted that Commander Peary's
document will tell of constant surveil-
lance of DR.. Cook by Peary's men dur
ing the two years Cook spent in the
ice-bound regions.
That this surveillance resulted
in the discovery that Dr. Cook never
went out of sight of land and that his
assertion of polar success was mere
abrication was the confident declara-
tion from the authoritative source
through which the present informa-
ton regarding Pearys report was OBJ
tanned.

FIVE KILLEDIN HAVANA
Property Loss o0,0o0-Storm
Ravages All Western Cuba.


Havana, Oct. 1.-THE most serious
storm since the big blow of Oct II,
1906, struck Cuba early this morn
ing, causing extensive damage
throughout the western portion of the
island. In the City of Havana many
minor buildings were blown down or
unroofed, almost all the trees were
uprooted. and five persons were
killed, one by an electric wire, and
the others by falling buildings About
twenty-five persons were injured.
The greatest damage done was in
the harbor, where forty or fifty light
ers, launches, and small tugs were
either sunk or blown ashore During
the height of the storm a small Span
ish brig struck the wreck. of the old
battleship Maine and remained fast
until pulled off by tugs. 1t will be
possible to raise the greater number
of the wrecked lighters and other
craft.
At Casablanca great anxiety was
felt throughout the day for the safety
of the Ward liner Moro Castle, from
New York, and the Plant Line steam
er Miami, from Key West Both of
these steamers. however, arrived
safely at $3.50 this afternoon, having
kept off shore for hours await
ing an abatement of the storm.
The total damage in Havana and vi
cinity is estimated at $l000,000. The
greatest individual loss was that caus
ed by destruction of half the coal ele-
vator conveyors of the Havana Coal
Company at Casablanca, estimated at
100000.

MRS. STETSON MAY
IITAKE CHURCH
WITH HER
New York Christian Scientists
Talk of DESERVING Mrs. Eddy
MRS. STETSON WAS DEPOSED
Directors Said to Be Prepared to
Stand by Her Regardless of
Her Being Censured

New York, Oct. 12.-Just what line
of action will be taken by Mrs. Aug
usta Il. Stetson, who was recently de-
posed from her position as teacher
and practitioner in the First Church
Christ Scientist, will probably not be
known until the time comes for her
usual winter class of Christian Sci
ence pupils to meet.
Mrs. Stetson has done no teaching
since the decree came from the Board
of Directors of the Mother church in
Boston, forbidding her to continue the
PRONUNCIATION of those principles which
the directors decided were not in line
with the doctrines of the faith. But
even had such a decree not been made
by the directors of the Mother church
Mrs. Stetson would not have acted as
teacher until early in the winter
For several years Mrs. Stetson's class
has usually convened during the win
ter months, and after a course of in
struction has been disbanded until
the following year.
interest among members OF the
First church now centers in whether
or not Mrs. Stetson will defy the de-
cree of the Mother church. She has
maintained silence until now and
those who know her intimately say
1t is not likely she will make any an
nouncement until the time comes for
her to decide whether she will ignore
the action of the Mother church dir
ectors or bow to their will. Her
friends say that Mrs. Stetson is not
the kind of woman to bow to the will
of the directors.
1t is said that the board of trustees
of the First Church Christ Scientist,
of which she is still member has
signified its intention of standing by
Mrs. Stetson even to the point of sew
ering all connection with the Mother
church and operating the First church
as an entirely independent body.
Such action. however, would have
to be Endorsed by majority vote OF
the congregation. There are about
1000 members of the First Church
Christ Scientist in this city Many
of them say they are entirely in SYM
patty with Mrs. Stetson and would be
willing to adhere to her leadership
even to the extent of severing relat-
ions with the Mother church.
she has not been assured that Mrs.
Eddy is at all cognizant of the board
of directors action in her case and
that of the sixteen practitioners in
the First Church Christ Scientist,
who were admonished a few days ago.
They say that the action of the board
was due to jealousy of Mrs. Stetson's
growing power as Christian Science
leader and fear that she might soon
ne in the position OF disputing Mrs.
Eddy's leadership.
Whether Mrs. Stetson will make
an effort to see Mrs. Eddy personally
and lay the matter before her is not
known. Those who are conversant
with affairs in the Christian Science
faith say that it would probably be
impossible for Mrs. Stetson to get
letter to Mrs. Eddy without its being
opened first by members of the
Mother church directors or their rep
resentatives.

Indicates Murder

In Copy of New Bedford
Newspaper

Tiverton, r. l., Oct. 1.-THE finding
of the severed legs of a woman in a
dress suit case among some bushes
In an outlying section of this town this
afternoon, brought to light what the
authorities are convinced is a case of
murder. officials, up to a late hour
this evening, had made little progress
toward unraveling the mystery The
discovery of New Bedford newspa-
per of. yesterdays date with the por-
lions of the limbs in the suit case is
regarded as the most important clue
thus far obtained The authorities to-
night were of the opinion that the
woman was murdered in New Bed
ford
According to the medical examiner,
DR.. John Stimson of Tiyerton, the sup
posed murder was committed not
more than II or 10 hours before the
suit case was discovered. That muir
der was committed and the cutting
not done by surgeon or by medi-
cal student is the belief of the medi-
cal examiner, who says that appar-
emily a common hand saw was used
to sever the legs from the trunk.
Search for the other portions of the
body in the woods near the place
where the suit case was found was
continued all night
The spot where the suit case was
found is near Bliss -Four corners in
this town.
The locality was apparently well
suited for concealing the evidences of
crime, and, according to people liv-
ing in the neighborhood the body
might have lain there for days undis-
covered had not rural letter carrier
George Potter, CHANGED to go to the
spot this afternoon.
Later investigation by the medical
examiner showed that the suit case
contained the upper portion of a right

and the entire left leg, cut in two at
the knee The foot was about the
size for a No shoe The medical
examiner estimated that the woman

cHoKED BY BURGLAR
Hardwick Woman Runs on to Him In
the Dark-Grappled with Him.

Hardwick, Oct. 11-Sunday morn
ing about o'clock the house of Mrs.
+. c. Jacobs, on High street was en-
tered by some unknown person and
the sum of $45 in cash was taken
from Mrs Jacobs desk. In the desk
were also her pension check and
quantity of money belonging to her
daughter, which were untouched as
the thief evidently did not have time
to secure it. Mrs. Jacobs room was
on the first floor, and as she usually
leaves the door to the cellar slightly
open, she heard the door creak and
thought nothing of it. She soon heard
the silverware on the table rattle, and
thinking that the cat was on the
table, she stepped to the door of the
dining room and, opening it, saw
man in front of the desk with a roll
of bills in his hand. She seized him
by his shoulders and asked him what
he was doing and at the same time
she turned on the electric light.
The burglar turned off the light and
seized Mrs Jocobs by the throat and
threw her to the floor, rendering her
unconscious and injuring her serious
ly.
Entrance was made through eel
lar window that had been removed to
put in coal. The thief made his es-
cape through the kitchen and went
out by the side door,
The chief of police was notified and
an investigation is being made. No
arrests have been made thus far.

Detroit, Oct. H.-Pittsburg defeat
ed Detroit by the score of to here
today In one of the most spectacular
and fiercely contested games ever
played in worlds championship ser
les. This gives Pittsburg two games
to one in the series, and the National
League champions are corresponding
~ jubilant. Detroit, however, showed
in the final innings of the battle that
1t is far from a hopelessly beaten
team. Weather conditions were
frightful. Rain fell frequently.
Clouds made the atmosphere so dark
during the last two innings that it
was hard for both players and specta-
tors to follow the ball A sharp
northwest wind added to the discom-
fort. The attendance, however. 49,

ever, came to the fore with one OF
the gamest rallies ever made and

of Works curves in the ninth for two
runs. Then, even with the score to

out two more runs in the last inning
Had Crawford been able to hit up to
his usual mark there would have been
a different story to tell.
Detroit outbatted Pittsburg by

Summers started for the locals but
was removed before the end of the
first inning. Willet succeeded him
and did well until he was taken out
to allow Mcintyre to bat for him in

Works, who then went in, was lucky
in the eighth after Abstein had made
two-base hit, with but one out. The
next two were easy outs. In the
ninth Pittsburg landed on him for
three hits and that clinched the game
for them. Maddox was on the rub

says editorialy:
I'm that strip of territory starting a
known as New England, twenty-five
million tons of anthracite and blum
nous coal are consumed annually
The cost of this coal to the consumers
exceeds $100,000,000. Two-thirds Of
this sum is paid for transportation
and delivery OF coal from the mines
to the consumers bins.
These figures, though they may
seem insignificant when 1t is consid-
cred that some 425,000,000 tons of
coal are mined annually in the United
States. have given to many of the
New England consumers food for ser
ious thought during the past few
years, which is Just about to culmn-
ate in the publication of report that
will show up the vast fuel needs OF
this small area of country, and Will
further more point out means by
which the cost of this fuel can be ma
terially reduced. Realizing that this
question of fuel supply to the indus

England is just as important as that
OF supplying food to each individual
body, some year and a half ago, GER
tain leading manufacturers and fuel
engineers who are members of the

about to devise some plan whereby
the consumption of fuel would be les
sened or its cost materially decreased
This movement lead to the appoint
ment of committee known as the
Fuel Supply Committee, who were
given carte blanche to make a
thorough investigation, to compile
facts and to encourage suggestions
whereby saving would be effected to
the coal consumers, the various mem
bers of this organization, as well as
to the thousands of individual manu-
facturers and consumers For more
than year. this committee has done
valiant work There is no question
as regards transportation and the de-
livery and handling of coal after 1t
reaches the consumers that they
have not studied and in their report
they are able to show wherein
through gross lack of modern equip
ment and intelligence. that millions
of dollars have been and are being
wasted yearly by consumers, that
can be saved by the introduction of
new equipment and new methods.
"The committee has gone even fur
Their in it's investigations, and it is
believed that it will soon make a
showing as regards discriminatory
railroad rates on all rail coal as will
call for investigation at the hands of
those in authority, which it is believ-
ed, will result in rates being equal

hundreds of receiving points.
