Chicago, Jan. 18. Stovaine, ac-

John Rohrty at the county hospital last
Thursday.
Rohrty was operated on for frae-

he was taken off the operating table.
DR.. Hunter has made a post-mortem
examination of the body, and an in
quest probably will be held tomorrow.
"Death was caused by stovaine and
external violence" said DR.. Hunter.
FThe fractured knee cap forms all the
external violence marks that the body
showed, and that in itself would not
cause death. of course"

DIVER BEATS DEvILFISH.
Deep-Sea Artist Wins Desperate Fight
on Ocean Bottom.

Long Beach, Cal, Jan. 15.--Cut off
from assistance from above, A. D.
Christy, a professional deep-sea diver,
spent the worst Is minutes of his life
today in a desperate battle on the sea
bottom with large devilfsh.
Christy had gone down to inspect
the caissons and piers of the outer
wharf for the city. In wandering
around he tangled his lifeline up so
that when he felt the octopus seize his
leg he was unable to give the signal
for ascending.
Perceiving that the line was fast he
turned to the octopus, which by that
time had four tentacles wrapped around
his left leg. Five times he slashed
at the monster with his big scraping
knife and each time severed tentacle.
At last, the octopus moved away and
Christy fastened to straighten out the
lifeline and gave the signal to be
hauled up He has been in a state
bordering on nervous collapse ever
since, but his condition is not serious.

COunCIImen. Bankers, Politicians and
Real Estate Men Involved.
Members of Council Were Bought
One Broker Gets $22, ,5oO-Pres-
ldent and Vice President Caught
With Men Whom They Bribed to
Make Deposits of Public Cash.

Pittsburg, Jan. 15.-President E. H.
Jennings and Vice-President F. A.
Griffin of the Columbia National bank;
Max g. Leslie, county delinquent tax
collector and ex-Republican city chair
man; Charles Stewart, ex-councilman,
and F. f. Nicola, capitalist and real
estate operator were arrested today on
warrants issued by District Attorney
Blakely, charging them with conspir-
acy to cause the selection of the CO.
lumbia National bank as a city de-
pository.
In addition, Leslie is charged with
perjury and another councilman alleges
that for two years he made a business
of soliciting the aid of councilmen for
the influence of legislation. All gave
bail
The charges are the result of the
graft scandals of 1908, when it was
brought out that councilmen hau been
paid money to vote for six repositories.
Officers of other banks who were found
guilty had taken an appeal to the su-
perior court and the present cases had
been halted pending a decision on the
other cases. AS no decision seemed
likely until March, when the statute
of limitation would have exempted
those arrested today, the district at
torney took summary action.
1t is charged in the writs that in
May, 1908, Stewart, as councilman,
solicited from Griffin $4,000 for his
vote and influence in favor of the or
dinance that authorized the Columbia
National bank as depository. 1t is
also charged that Nicola instigated this
move on the part of Stewart. Griffin
is charged with conspiracy to defraud
the city by corrupting members of the
city council and it is further charged
that he promised certain members
$25,000 for their votes and influence in
favor of the ordinance.
Leslie is charged with receiving
$22,5O0 to influence councilmanic votes.
lr is also charged that before the grand
jury Investigated this charge Leslie
perjured himself in denying that he
had received any payments for any
purpose whatever from any of the men
named

vENTuRA,s GREW SAVED.
Steamer Fairhaven Rescues All on Board
in Nick of Time.

San Francisco, Jan. 1S.-Captain Pau
Rappemundt, his wife and S-months
old child, his 16,year.old son, Paul
Rappemundt, Jr., and the entire crew
of seven of the wrecked schooner San
Buena Ventura, have been saved from
the sea. They arrived in San Francisco
harbor tonight on the steamer Fair
haven, and the first news of them re-
ceived since their vessel drifted ashore
Friday at the mouth of Rogue river
came from the Fairhaven S signal flags
as the steamer steered in through the
Golden Gate.
The party was taken from the sink
ing, water-logged lumber schooner after
three days of hardship and suffering
They had about despaired of their
chances of escaping death in the ocean,
when the Fairhaven hove in sight just
before dusk Friday afternoon, and the
rescue was accomplished despite the
heavy sea that was running.
First Mate Erickson, of the San
Buena Ventura, was seriously injured
on Wednesday afternoon, when the
cargo of lumber shifted. Three of his
ribs were fractured, and it is probable
that he is internally injured. J. Cos
siovey, one of the seamen, sustained an
injury of the right hand These were
the only casualties
When the Fairhaven sighted the dis
abled schooner Captain Paulson sent
Second Mate Johann Silversten and
four men to the rescue in a ifeboat.
After an exciting battle with the heavy
seas the small boat reached the side of
the doomed vessel.
Mrs Rappemundt and her son were
taken into the lifeboat. Then Mate
was lifted over the side. One
by one the members of the crew, nearly
exhausted after their many hours at
the pumps, deserted the wrecked craft
but Captain Rappemundt refused to
leave the ship.
"She IL stay afoat for week yet,
and III stay with her." he shouted to
MS men. They pleaded with him in
vain, and it was not until Mrs. Rappe-I
nundt threatened to leap into the sea
with her three-months-ol baby in her
arms that the ships master finally
Yielded.
