No Hope for Vessel

If the Kentucky does not go down
soon she will be sunk by the cutter
Yamacraw.
Standing on the deck of the Alamo
Captain Moore of the Kentucky looked
back at his laboring vessel and said:
she will go to the bottom before mid
night
The laundering ship, when the Alamo
reached her at $3.50 O'Clock this after
noon, was in latitude 30 IS and longi-
tude 76 AZ, according to wireless
message received from the rescuing
steamer as it came alongside the Ken
lucky.
Then, bit by bit, out of the air, came
electric flashes to the station of the
wireless company at Savannah, telling
of the rescue in small boats of Captain
Moore and his men.
1t is an evidence of his heroism that
Captain Moore, when on the Alamo.
publicly thanked the operator for his
work, and the rescued crew then
cheered him.
The operator sat at his instrument
until water, rushing in, drowned out
the dynamo that enabled him to send
out his signals.

The mayor, according to his callers.
declared that news of the police com
missions action was surprise to him
that he had not known such a change
been made without consultation with
him by any of the commissioners He
did not pledge himself to any definite

matter and take up the complaint of
the discharged operators with the po-
lice commissioners.
At police headquarters the action of
the commission was the subject of a
deal of quiet discussion yesterday
Many of the most prominent officials of
the department privately informed the
discharged operators that they could
not understand the action and would do
everything in their power to have it
reconsidered.
Miss Foran and Miss Mcmahon were
not idle. Miss Schiller also Joined in
their complaint, but it is rumored that
she was to have left the department
shortly in any event to become a bride.

masses. We already witness the fact
that they dictate the policy of our
government and place whomsoever
they please in power
Labor founded this government
When she landed on this continet
she found a wonderfully rich soil
then totally undeveloped and with
the toll and ingenuity of the work
ing people she cleared the desolated
forests and made them the fields of
abundant riches. Notwithstanding
the important fact that labor is I'M
questionably the natural father of
the nation, she has never received
the blessings from the government
that she was entitled to reap. The
time is here when labor realizes these
unjust inequalities, and she is going
to use her power with the ballot and
control the nation that she nurtured,
receiving that what was intended for
her from the hands of a generous
government, and depriving no class
of equal rights. The first start that
she will make is to let capital un-
derstand that there must be har-
mony between the two, and unless
harmony prevails the war that will
inevitably come will be disaster to
trusts and moneyed combines which
absorb the rights of the masses. The
agricultural people have formed
themselves into defensive alliance,
and the labOrers have arrayed them
selves under the shelter of a union,
and with the proper wisdom and pre-
caution these two unions will reach
the stand in the government that was
intended by the founders for them
to enjoy.

CONFESSES AIDING
IN SAILORS MURDER

Aberdeen, WASH, April 7.-Retribu-
ton for the mysterious murders of
sailors, long puzzle at the ports of
the Puget Sound, seems now close at
hand. Giving alleged details of the
killing of John Hoffman and Charles
Hedberg, John KlingerDerg has made
a sworn confession to Prosecuting At
torney Campbell.
Klingenberg says that he, under
threat of death at the hands of Will
liam Gohl, killed Hedberg. The
statement charges the Staying of
Hoffman direct to Gohl who Is a for
mer agent of the sailors union and Is
under arrest at Monte Sano, waiting
trial for wholesale Staying that threat
ems to parallel the Guinness crimes in
Indiana.
AS in many previous cases two sail
ors, Hedbury and Hoffman, disap-
peared mysteriously. Hedburg's body
was found, but search failed to reveal
Hoffman's.
In December Klingenberg says ne
was persuaded to accompany Gonl
and Hoffman in launch to visit He'd
berg. Gohl told Klingenberg, so the
latter asserts, that Hedberg had in
formed the authorities that Cob had
shot a COW. While on the way, the
confession recites, Gohl fired four
shots into Hoffman's back and threw
the body overheard. The two surviv-
ors continued the trip to Hedberg's
cabin, where they spent the night
Next morning Klingenberg, at Gohl's
command and under threat of death,
shot Hedberg, killing him instantly.
The body was taken out in the launch
and sunk in the bay.
Gohls alleged motive was a greed
for the money of the victim
