A BIG STEAMER
GOES ON ROCKS
w. J. BRYAN AND HIS WIFE
AMONG THE PASSENGERS
ABOARD.

New York, Nov. 22.-The steamship
Prinz Joachim of the Hamburg Amer
lean line, which left here last satur-

on the rocks off Samana island. 200
miles north Of Haiti. William ].
Bryan, his wife and grandchild with
a party of eighty-seven tourists are
on board.
The steamship is in no immediate
danger, but requires assistance.
Wrecking tugs will be sent to the
Prinz Joachim from the most avail
able ports. The last wireless report
received from the vessel stated the
passengers We're all well and that the
steamer Is resting about a mile off
shore.
Wireless communication from this
city with the stranded Prinz Joachim
was practically broken when daylight
came, the wireless operators report
ing that they could only get long dis
tance messages as far as Samana ISL
and aC night.
The Prinz Joachim, under the COM
mand Of Capt. A, Fey, sailed last Sat-
urday on cruise to Port Limon and
return. The first port of call was For-
tune island, where the steamer was
due today.
The list shows that of the passen-
gers carried, II were first cabin and
16 were second class.

MERRITT SAYS HE

ings with John d. Rockefeller and
now Rockefeller had forced him out
OF the copper business in Minnesota.
Mr.. Merritt declared it was aft Sr he
had turned down a proposition from
Mr.. Rockefeller, which he chara ,ter
lied as Stealing that Mr.. Rockefeller
called upon him to pay a milliol dol +

came through the Rev. Mr.. Gates. Mr..
Rockefeller's almoner.

RUMoRED THAT DIRECT APPEAL
is TO BE MADE TO u. s.
SUPREME COURT.
Preparations Being Made to Handle
Any Surprise Which Packers Law.

Shleago, Nov. 22.-With tn, last
word of District Judge Carpenter YES.
terday that unless a stay {. der is
srahted the case will proceed next
Sionday,' still uppermost in their
minds, counsel for the indicted meat
packers today prepared to leave no
stone unturned in their efforts 10 oh
tam a stay of proceedings. Govern
ment lawyers were just as busy
watching the activities of opposing
counsel. Close watch was being kent
on Washington, which, it was said.
Attorney Alfred Austrian had gone to-
day with the appeal papers. 1t was
the belief of counsel for the govern
ment that he would endeavor to gain
halt in the trial by appealing to
one of the justices of the supreme
court.
Rumor had it that the packers coun-
sci intended appealing directly 10
Chief Justice White. This move was
considered unlikely by others engaged
in the case, because it was argued
that if the chief justice should be ap-
pealed TO and refuse, then it would be
practically useless to appeal to any
associate justice, None of these, it
was thought, would grant stay if It
had been refused by the chief jusr1ce,
and for this reason it was thought
that an appeal would first be made to
an associate justice
1t is argued by counsel for the def
PENDANTS that each justice had the
power during recess to issue a stay or
der on an appeal for decision in a
habeas corpus case. The question of
whether the packers would go to trial
next Monday, it was believed today,
hinges entirely on this question of
power.
Time for Surprise.
Whether any further moves would
be taken before local federal courts
was a matter Of conjecture. The ap-
peal taken from Circuit Judge Kohl
saat's decision in the habeas corpus
proceeding with the consttutionality
of the criminal provision Of the Sher-
man anti trust law as basis, and the
subsequent postponement of the hear
ing by Judge Carpenter Of the trial,
gave counsel for the packers ample
time to arrange surprises for the gov
ernment lawyers, and these were mo-

JAP CABINET SITUATION.

Toxic, Nov. 22.-The cabinet crisis
threatened by the demand Of the
finance commissioner for wholesale
cuts in the budget will probably be
ayerted. Although the ministerial
council reached no decision yester-
day, and the ministers refused to
comply with the demands of Yamam-

progress had been made and the dis
puted points in the budget are now

DOCTOR PRESCRIBES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

Il wish to let you know of a couple
Of recent cures which / have made
by the use of the Cuticura Remedies.
Last August, Mr.. --=- of this city
came to my office, troubled with a
severe skin eruption. 1t was dermatitis
in its worst form. II started with a
slight eruption and would affect most
parts Of his body, thighs. elbows,
chest. back and abdomen-and would
terminate In little pustules. The itch
Ing and burning was dreadful and he
would almost tear his skin apart, try
Ing to get relief. I recommended all
the various treatments ! could think
OF and he spent about fifteen dollars
on prescriptions, but nothing seemed
to help him.
In the meantime my wife, who
was continually suffering with a slight
skin trouble and who had been try
Ing different prescriptions and meth
DDS with my assistance, told me she
was going to get some of the Cuticura
Remedies and give them a fair trial.
But as / did not know much about
Cuticura at that time I was doubtful
whether It would help her. Her skin
would thicken. break and bleed, es-
pecially on the fingers. wrists and
arms. / could do nothing to relieve
her permanently. When she first ap-
piled the warm baths Of Cuticura
Soap and applications Of Cuticura
Ointment she saw decided improve
ment and in a few days she was com
pletely cured.
Il lost no time IN recommending
the Cuticura Remedies to Mr.. -
and this was two months ago. / told
him to wash with warm baths OF the
Cuticura Soap and to apply the Cuti-
cura Ointment generously. Believe
me, from the very first days use OF
the Cuticura Remedies he was greatly
relieved and today he is completely
cured through their use. have great
faith In the Cuticura Remedies and
shall always have a good word for
them now that I am convinced OF
their wonderful merits" (signed) b.
