ITALIAN WARShiP BLOWN up
Report Says Vessel Was Destroyed
by a Mine.

London, Oct. GA dispatch to the
Chronicle from Constantinople says
that a cablegram received there from
Turkish source at Tripoli via Malta
says that the Italian battleship Conte
di Cavour was blown up by Turkish
mine of Tripoli and that the troops
and crew aboard the vessel perished
The dispatch adds:
"A heavy cannonading was heard
near Samothrace. an island belonging
to Turkey In the Aegean sea, about
twenty miles from the coast OF
Thraco, where flashes from the Italian
searchlights We're seen.
Violent cannonading was also
heard off the coast from Preyesa.
THE newly formed national defense
committee has cabled King George of
England asking him to intervene"
A news dispatch from Rome says
that tho delay in Aflc Uvnrorsa...ont vr
Tripoli was due not only to the Italian
desire to avoid bloodshed. but also to
the fact that the harbor had been ex-
tensively mined.

WRlCHTS WILL TEST
new SHIP THIS WEEK
Latest Craft TO Remain Dead
In Air Indefinitely.

Naghead, N. c.. Oct. 6.-The amaz-
ing statement made by Lorin Wright
that his brothers, Wilbur and Orville,
have at last discovered the secret OF
the vulture's fight and win send into
the clouds this week an aeroplane ca
pable of soaring indefinitely. like a
giant bird, has created the widest
excitement here, whore eleven years
ago the experimenting aviators were
looked on as harmless imbeciles.
The elder wf1ght-for he is the old
est OF the world famed family as well
as the least known--let slip the secret
when he passed through Elizabeth
City ON his return to Dayton, O.,
fterfspending ten days at the old ex-
pertinent station near Kitty Hawk.
To intimate friends he told Of the
marvellous invention. but he was care
ful to say little of its construction;
hence its mechanism Is still q pro
found secret
While Mr.. Wright did not go into
details, those to whom he confided
say he said the fier would be raised,
propelled and maintained In the air
with the minimum OF power and that
like the vulture, after whose flight II
is patterned. It would remain aloft
with the engine dead" 20 long as the
air was In motion.

New Orleans, Oct. 6.-Although no
denial or confirmation by those In a
position to know was obtainable, a
story was in circulation In shipping
and commercial circles here that the
Illinois Central railroad has placed an
embargo on all shipments from the
North and East to Memphis and New
Orleans and intermediate points.
Exporters stated they had received
information from their agents in Chi
cago and Northern cities that the iii.
nois Central was refusing freight for
Memphis and other points south as
far as New Orleans and that connect
ing lines had been directed by the Illi-
nois Central to route their consign-
ments over competing roads for South
ern points. The strike is given as the
cause.

Milwaukee, Oct 6.--When more tes-

penditure of $lO7,7gs campaign ex-

1t is expected, will have an important

Senator Stephenson is charged with

Stephenson's funds and had charge OF

the law for keeping an account You

just what those individuals did with

Edmonds then went over q list of

Strikepreakers-Tteu at New Or
leans Said to Be Complete.
McComb City, Miss, Oct. 6.-The
military patrol of this town, neces.
Stated by rioting growing out of the
Illinois Central strike, was increased
by the arrival of Ave additional com.
panies of troops. At daylight a spe.
cial train reached here with the Jack.
son and Greenwood companies and
two hours later provisional battalion
of three companies arrived on a spe.
cial train from Meridian.
The arrival of additional troops has
revived rumors that the federal gov.
ernment is preparing to make an Inn
portant move in connection with the
enforcement of the injunction restrain
Ing interference with the Illinois Cen.
tral railroad affairs.
People of McComb City are begin.
ming to wonder why so many troops
are being rushed here Apprehension
is expressed that 1t is to effect the ar.
rest of large numbers of strikers and
others and taking them to Jackson.
One explanation of the presence
here of additional troops is seen in the
Illinois Central company's action to
begin the construction of a ten-foot
fence around its shop property here.
As soon as it is completed, 1t is said.
the company will send 600 or 500
strikebreakers to operate the shops,
having been assured by Governor Noel
that sufficient force of the Mississip-
pi national guard will be kept in camp
here to guarantee the fullest protec.

London, Oct. 6.-The maze of un.
certainty which has enveloped the
progress of the Italian-Turkish war
since it's beginning continues undis.
sipated. Rumors and reports of all
kinds continue to reach this city from
various points in the Mediterranean.
but none of them has been verified.
Even SO called Official statements
from Rome and Constantinople are
open to suspicion, because each gov
ernment, apparently, is trying to mis-
lead the other as to the movements of
its troops and ships.
Several reports announce that the
Italian flag is flying over Tripoli,
though another. however, purporting
to be direct from the beleaguered city,
states that the Turks have not yet
made any overtures toward surrender.
It IL certain that the forts have been
bombarded and probably demolished,
but whether the Italian troops yet
control the city is uncertain.
Warship Reported Blown Up.
A dispatch from Constantinople is
authority for the statement that an
Italian battleship has been blown uf
by a mine off the harbor of Tripoli
but in the official register of the Ital
ian navy the vessel said to have been
destroyed Is stated to be still under
construction.
A dispatch from Rome tells of the
landing of a party of Italians from
the cruiser Giuseppe Garibaldi at Trip

the bombardment was visited and
three bodies are reported to have beer

Of the reported bombardment of the
