SUBMARINE
LOST, Il MEN
DROWNED

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
CALAIS, May 26-The French sub
marine Pluviose was sunk today Just
outside the bay here in a collision with
the Calais Dover packet VILE de
Calais. The crew consisting Of the
commander, two other officers and "a
men were lost
The catastrophe was due to the
.recklessness of the submarines com
mander in attempting TO pass under
the packet lie miscalculated the
depth required for thi.. feat and the
submarine struck the steamer and
was nearly cut in two. She sank like
a plummet
Although the accident occurred in
the full sun light, the captain of the
Vile de Calais failed TO see the Plu-
viose which was manouevring half
submerged at the time Of the acci-
dent.
The first the captain knew Of the
presence Of the submarine was when
the crash came. The packet was
badly damaged and put back to Ca
lais after leaving several life boats
to search for possible survivors from
the submarine.
The Vile de Calais sent aerograms
TO Dover and Calais for assistance
and tug boats and torpedo boats has
tened TO the scene.
The accident occurred in fun view
Of a crowd of several hundred who
were on the bank watching the man
euvering of the submarine.
The Pluviose was $50 feet long and
of $50 tons. She was built at Cher
bourg.

Boston transcript
Many things have been done in Cool
rado that are hardly worthy examples
for other states TO follow; but its
present method Of employing its con-
Wet labor furnishes an object lesson
that deserves wide consideration. Last
summer about 40 per cent of the COL
orado convicts were put TO work out
side their prison walls. A thousand
were used exclusively in road building
The cost for each prisoner emloyed
was 36 cents a day and the counties
where the roads were built paid this
amount less the amount the state would
have TO pay to maintain them in the
prison. The days work was eight
hours, and for each months service
there was a substantial subtraction
from the term Of imprisonment No
chains We're attached, no stripes were
worn and there was no armed guard
to patrol the work camps: vet less
than one-half Of l per cent. of those
thus employed were lost by escapes.
The success of the method may be
due largely TO the fact and Judgment
of the warden. The road work is
said to be the desire of every prisoner
but he must earn the privilege by good
conduct. The warden personally has
a talk with each prisoner before as
signing him to this service and receives
his pledge that he will be true and
faithful to his trust The best effect
of this" he says. lis that every man
who goes from prison to road work
and keeps his word with me- has taken
a long step toward reformation"

BACK TO STEAM
POWER In NIGHT
HilIeS and Jones COmpany'S
Men Accomplish a Re-
markable Change in
the Plant

lt was only due TO a remarkable feat
in Transforming over night from elec-
trio power to steam power that the
Hilles and Jones Company's big plant
was enabled to begin operations as
usual yesterday morning The hun
dreds of workmen who expected to find
everything at standstill in the plant
because of the fire at the Wilmington
Electric Company's powerhouse were
astonished when they found the
machines ready to start at seven o'clock
yesterday morning.
The Hilles and Jones Company has
modern electrical power installation
in its plant, there being an electric
motor TO drive each piece Of machinery.
instead of the power being distributed
from overhead shafting by belt trans
mission. Thus electricity is obtained
from the Wilmington City Electric
Company and when its power was shut
off it prostrated every motor i'm the
Hilies and Jones works.
It was late on Tuesday night that
the company decided to change over
from electrical power to steam power.
The engines and boiler were still in
tact, but all the shafting and most Of
the betting that had been removed
when the motors were installed, was
stored away, properly tagged in event
that it should ever be desired again.
The Ocmpany's officials decided upon
the stupendous task of erecting all the
shafting and drive wheels and connect
ing each machine BY belt transmission
so that there would be no loss of oper-
ating time in the machine depart
ment.
James G. Scott. general foreman, got
eight expert employees Of the company
together and they worked until day
/ night yesterday. They had beltmakers
from Rhoades and Sons Company with
them, and they supplied the betting
needed. Steam power was turned on
and the result was that when the seven
o'clock whistle blew yesterday morning
the machinery was running as usual.
and the workmen found a surprising
transformation made over night.

HEIKE and The
SUGAR FRAUDS
Government Attempts to Con-
meet Him With the Under
weighing
By united Press Leased Special Wire.

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
NEW YORK, May 26-Treasury
checks endorsed by Charles r. HellSe
as secretary Of the American Sugar
Refining Company representing re-
bates paid on sugar cargoes imported
by the corporation were introduced
as evidence against Heilke at today's
session Of his trial for conspiracy. BY
the mthe government claimed to prove
that Heike must have had knowledge
Of the sugar frauds and this was the
first real attempt TO connect him di-
rectiy with the underweighing Of m
ports.
Acting deputy collector OF the port
Harry III. Waters produced the checks
all of which bore Heike's endorsement
He stated that when a cargo of sugar
arrived at this port the government
estimated the duty by means Of the
invoices. After the sugar was weighed
on the docks the actual weight, as re-
ported by the weighers, was returned
TO the collector and compared witl
the original estimate. Invariably il
was found that the trust had beer
charged too much duty and treasury
warrants for the difference were
drawn.
The government argued. that mas
much as Heike knew how much was
paid for the sugar, payments being
made on the return of the city weigh
ers and also the amount paid for duty
be had knowledge that there was q
distinct discrepancy and that the com
pany was benefting thereby.
Technical statements and reports
showing imports covering the time il
which the alleged frauds took place
were also introduced and explained
by Walters.
