BODIES FLOAT ASHORE.
Only Survivor of Gen. Chanzy Wreck
Can't Tell How 1t Happened.

Palma, Island of Majorca. Feb. 12.-
Bodies were floating ashore today from
the wreck of the steamer General Chan
zy. The authorities posted men along
the coast to recover the bodies and
also to watch for small boats in des-
perate hope that some of those aboard
might have escaped.
Marcel Rodel the Algerian customs
was still unable today to give a lucid
account of the disaster. When the ves-
sci went down he clung to a piece of
wreckage and was washed ashore.
When tossed on the rocks he was
rendered insensible and in this state
remained throughout the night. Re
Viving in the morning he wandered
about aimlessly most of the day, finally
stumbling into the village of Cludad-
ella almost demented.
From his rambling story the authori-
ties first learned of the disaster and
rushed help to the nearest land point
They found only a mass of wreckage
piled up on the coast
The villagers say that even if the
small boats had been launched they
could not have lived in the sea that

The route of the Algerian boats is
particularly treacherous in bad wealth
er. The steamers Vile De Rome and
the Isaac Pereire were wrecked on the
same forbidding coast. The General
Chanzy missed the pass between the
islands of Minorca and Majorca being
either blown out of her course or rem
dered helpless by the breaking down
of her engines or the loss of her pro-
peller.
The place where the vessel struck is
known as ''Llosa." Some reports have
it that the steamer broke in two and
sank at once after she had struck and
others that an explosion occurred.
The heavy loss of life is attributed to
the probability that during the howl

vessel struck with such force that

of the church at Detroit last fall, ad-
and Unitarian churches, it is charged,
and also opposed revival services as a

WRECK OF THE CHANZY.
She Crashed Full Speed on the Reefs
in Dead of Night.

Palma, Feb. 12.-Driven helplessly
from her course in one of the widest
storms that has swept the Mediterra
mean in forty years, the French trans
Atlantic Steamship company steam
er General ChanZy crashed at full
speed in the dead of night on the
treacherous reefs near the island of
Minorca and all but one of the 157
souls on board perished.
The sole survivor is an Algerian
customs official, Marcel Rodel, who
was rescued by a fisherman, and who
lies in the hospital at Ciudadela raw
ing as result of the tortures through
which he passed and unable
to give an account of the disaster. In
the ships company there were 81
passengers of which 80 were in the
first cabin. The crew numbered 20.
The ship was in command of Cap
tain Cayol, one of the most careful
officers of the line. In his long eX-
perience he had never before met
with an accident. He had intended
to retire from the service in the near
future. The passengers of the Chanzy
were mostly French officers and Off
cials returning to their post in Algeria
accompanied by their families. a few
soldiers, some Italians and Turks and
one priest.
The only Anglo-Saxon names on the
passenger list were Green and Stake
ly. They wer, members of an opera
troup of eleven which had been en-
gagged to sing az the Casino in Algeria
The General Chanzy struck at 9
p. m. Thursday night after Captain
Cayol had been unable to cope with
the tempest of almost unprecedented
violence. Other ships in the neigh
borhood had safely ridden out the
storm, but the Chanzy fell prey to
the elements was lifted off her course
through the Balearic archipelago and
brought on the coast of Minorca in
= the vicinity of Ciudadela.
The Chanzy is a total wreck. Steam
ers have been dispatched from Spain
and from points in the Balearic is
lands to the scene of the catastrophe
Among the victims was the celebrated
Partisan music hall singer, Francis
Dufor, as we'll as other prominent
music hall favorites. 1t is now be-
lieved three American vaudeville
players from San Fra ncisco were or
board the steamer. Their names are

SHE BROKE TO PIECES.
Further Details Regarding the Wreck
of the General Chanzy.

Paris, Feb. 12.-Advices received to-
day by the French Atlantic Steamship
company, state that the loss of the
General Chanzsy from which only one
person was saved occurred on Wednes-
day night, while the vessel was running
before terrible storm in the vicinity Of
the Balearic islands in the Mediter-
ranean. When the vessel struck a reef
north of the Island of Minorca the
shock was terrific and the ship was
broken to pieces.
OF the vaudeville performers among
the passengers Nestor was a French
man and the two Strakleys were Bel
gians according to the theatrical peo-
pie. The latter say that the only
American performers were Miss Elsie
Henry and the team known as Derenda
and Green as acrObatS.
Considering the seaworthiness of the
General Chanzsy and the capability Of
Captain Caoit, shipping people believe
that the steamer must have become un-
manageable through the breaking down
of her engines or the loss of her pro-
peller. The General Chanzsy went
ashore near Bergen in 1896, at which
time she was hauled off by the German
corvette Griffen.
Another Wreck Reported.
Marseilles, France. Feb. 12.-It is be-
lieved today that the only Americans

is doubt whether the latter was an
American or an Englishman. Derenda

New York. Feb. 12.-What prom

A turn in conditions at that time
brought about a cessation of the fall
and left about four inches of snow in
this city and vicinity.
Two fishing vessels were victims of
the storms fury. They were blown
ashore on Sandy Hook in the early
hours and only heroic work on the
part of the life savers prevented disas-
ter to the men on board.
From one vessel. the Franklin d.
Nelson. eight men were safely landed.
The Nelson, it is feared, will prove a
total loss.
Shortly after the Nelson struck, the
schooner Libby was blown hard and
fast on the sands of the Hook. She
had nine men on board and the life
saving crew got them safely to land,
after q hard struggle.

cut the Eldridge rates in localities
where competition was great and
that there had been plenty of COM
petition in spite of those rates until
the law of 1909 was passed.
The companies, on the other hand,
charged that the filing of their rates
with the new insurance commissioner
obliterated competition by compelling
them to stick fast to the rate as an
nounced. In this connection agents
expressed a concern to know how it
would be possible to start competi-
ton again under the present law.
Contentious of the State.
The attorney general made his case
on violation of the Farrelley anti
trust law threefo1d:
FirSt-An agreement between the
insurance companies to use the Ed
ridge rates as an uniform basis to
control the rates of insurance
Second-If not an agreement, at
least an arrangement by which all
companies refer to the EIdridge rates
as their basis and which amounts to
the same thing.
Third-Companies enter into ar
arrangement or a course of conduct
for the purpose of accomplishing le-
gal purposes under certain conditions
by which legally trade is restrained
and prices are controlled. The rule
in that case is that the restraint be-
comes unreasonable even though the
contract is legal and then becomes H.
legal.
Mr.. Jackson then led up to the
present case through the history OF
the rate making for the companies
from the time when a committee OF
| twelve met in Chicago and fixed e
| uniform rate. Then trust laws be-
gan to interfere with the uniform
rate and the union of insurance COM
panies, who agreed to use a certain
rate, was effected. Then C1arkson
one of the original twelve rate fixers
started the C1arkson bureau to sup
ply this rate to be agreed upon and
the minimum tariff became ia
nous. But the trust laws were aimed
at the uniform rate and began tC
hunt around the Clarkson camp. Ir
Kansas there were conferences with
Governor Stanley. a reduction of rates
and the establishment of the new
rate bureau.
Upon the apparent adoption of the
rates of this new Eldridge bureau
which he contended were the same
old basis rates, Mr.. Jackson relied
Judge Dana, however, holds that the
evidence is not convincing
