AVERTS DISASTER
Wireless Message Saves Cap
= tain and Grew Of FOrty-Six
SENT SIGNAL OF DISTRESS
Assistance Reaches Vessel Just
Before She Sinks.

| New York, Feb. 5.-Thanks again to
the wireless and the international dis
tress signal, IS. o. S." Captain Moore
and his crew of forty-six men are safe
on board the Mallory liner Alamo,
bound for Key West, while their YES
sci, the steamer Kentucky, is at the
bottom of the sea off Cape Hatteras
1t is another case of disaster avert
ed by wireless and told to the world
by the same medium. The Kentucky,
a wooden vessel of 996 gross tonnage
and 2O3 feet long, was bound from New
York to the Pacific to carry passengers
between Tacoma and Alaskan ports
for the Alaska-Pacific Steamship com
pany. 49,
First news of the Kentucky's dis
tress was received at the United Wire
less company's station at Cape Hat
teras. There the operator heard the
IS. o. S." quickly followed by this
message: I'VE are sinking. Our lati-
tude is 32.1, longitude 1880"
Almost simultaneously the operator
heard the steamship Alamo respond to
the Kentucky's call for help, inform
ing Captain Moore that the Alamo was
making all speed to the sinking yes,
sells assistance. Thereafter no mes
sage was received from the Kentucky,
indicating that water had interfered
with the power, putting her wireless
apparatus out of commission. The
navy department at Washington in the
meantime flashed wireless messages
along the Atlantic coast, dispatching
the battleship Louisiana and two reve-
nue. cutters to the scene, but word
came from the Alamo that she had ar
rived first and had taken off all hands
in safety. This is the message as re-
cefved in New York by the United
Wireless company from it's Cape Hat
teraS station:
Latitude 1926, longitude 1928.
Steamship Alamo has just taken Cap
tain Moore and crew of forty-six men
from sinking steamship Kentucky Wa
ter had already reached the fire room
and steamer will sink before midnight
The Alamo is now proceeding to Key
West" r>
The Kentucky was insured for $780,

Federal Corporation Bill Intro
duCed in Congress.
MEASURE lot TO Be PRESSED
Executive More Interested in
Other Legislation.

Washington, Feb. 8.-The fedora
Incorporation bill which was intro
duced in congress Monday is not tc
be pressed for passage at this session
If the bill should be passed President
Taft has stated his willingness to
stand as it's sponsor and to take the
responsibility for having recommend
ed it.
Further than this, the president told
several callers that he void not
make the Incorporation bill an admin
istration measure. He declared he
felt he had no right TO do so and that
it did not rank with the proposed
amendments to the interstate COM
merce law, the postal savings banks
and the measures designed for the
conservation of natural resources.
These latter were promised in the
party platform upon which the presi-
dent was elected.
President Taft believes that there
are many things in the Incorporation
bill which will commend themselves
to the legislators as they study the
measure. Ite will not attempt to in
fuence senators or representatives in
its favor, however. The bill now goes
to the judiciary committee of con-
gress.
Wall Street RudeIy Awakened.
Wall street interests, inclined at
first to look upoL the idea of a fed
eraI charter with the utmost favor,
were rather rudely awakened when it
was learned that the president would
insist there should be included the
provision that nothing in the act
should be construed as exempting
corporations from the operation of the
antitrust act A great many corpora
lions, it is said, were looking forward
to a federal charter as an Indication
that past sins were forgiven, provided
there were no more transgressions in
the future.
One of the many objections to the
bill has arisen from the denial of the
right of state jurisdiction over the
corporations, but the officials believe
that after the law has had a working
chance it may be possible to modify
its provisions so as to make them less
Objectionable from the states right
point of view.
The proposed law does not conten-
plate supervision of railroad corpora
tons, as they exercise the right of
eminent domain.

FURTHER DELAY IN INQUIRY
Probe Adjourned for a Week at Bal
fingers Request.

Washington, Feb 5.-The congress
sional probe into the intricacies of the
BalIinger-Pin episode came tenn
porarily to an abrupt end
After an hour of executive session,
and upon receipt of letter from Sec
rotary Ballinger, it was decided to
postpone further hearings until next
Friday, Feb. II, in order to permit
Mr.. BalIinger to secure counsel to
represent him at the hearings and
cross-examine L. R. CLAWS.
The brief open meeting of the com
mittee was marked by bitter remarks
from Attorney L. D. Brandeis, who
represents CLAWS. He unsparingly
criticised the delay of the interior de-
partment in producing certain letters
and documents which he had asked
for a week ago.

Slump in Wall Street Intended to In

New York, Feb. 9.-Direct charges
that the pronounced liquidation in the
stock market is for the purpose of in
fuencing the administration in Wash
ington and the supreme court of the
United States in dealing with the
trusts are made by stock exchange ex-
perts.
They declare that the Interests"
are giving the supreme court an object
lesson on what may be expected if the
j suit to dissolve the tobacco trust is in
favor of the government and the
Standard Oil company suit as a com
bination in restraint of trade is upheld
Then again the interests" it is GER
tain, want the bill providing for fed
eral Incorporation so changed that it
will not be possible for hostile con-
gress to step in and throw the fat in
the fire" by providing still more
stringent regulations for the supervis-
ion and regulation of all federal cor
porations.

TURKEY PREPARING FOR WAR
Buying Guns and Horses in Various
European Countries.

Constantinople, Feb 4.-The minis
ter of war has dispatched ten officers
to various European countries to buy
horses and guns in anticipation of
war with Greece.
Four torpedo boat destroyers have
also been ordered from Germany.
The Third army corps, stationed at
Salonika, has been ordered to cross
the frontier the moment the forthcom.
ing Greek parliament accepts deputies
from Crete into its membership. Such
an act. Turkey considers, would be a
reputation of Turkish suzerainty over
Crete and sufficient cause for the
immediate declaration of war.

OPPOSED TO ANY CHANGE
President Would Retain Publicity Fea.
ture of Tax Law

Washington, Feb. 4.-The public fea-
ture of the corporation tax law is to
become operative, but is to be inter
preted literally by the executive, ac-
cording to decision reached by Pres
ident Taft. The president, in the
course of a conference with H. S.
Meads, secretary of the Merchants as.
ISOLATION of New York, told Meads
that he would not sanction any change
in the corporations view of the pub
licity feature of the act which, he said,
would place at the hands of competi-
tors vital business information.
The president said that it will be un-
necessary to amend the law to avoid
this, as the extent of publicity will
come within the discretion of the de.
partment ministering the law.
