 SAW CAPT. SMITH OF
 TITANIC ON STREET
Suffering From Nervous Shock as Result-Stead's Spirit Reported
 Seen

Baltimore. July 20.-(Special )-Peter city, who was shipmate of Captain Smith of the Titanic for r years, de- clared today that he saw Captain Smith in Baltimore yesterday and talked with him He said he met him on the street on Tuesday and accosted him, but the commander brushed by him angriy. The next day, he declared. he saw him again and followed him around the city to a railroad station where the captain bought ticket for Washington.
 Just as he was about to pass through the gates Pryal declared the man turned to him and greeted him by name.
 "I am on business: don't worry me. Pryal," he said. Be good to yourself, old shipmate. till we meet again
 Pryal Is under the care of physician suffering from nervous shock brought on by the experience His physician de- ciares he is absolutely sane. He is well known in Baltimore and is an active church member.
 Denver. July 2o.-tSpecial-That the spirit of William T. Stead was pho tographed in Denver 10 days ago. Is the statement of pr Charles Marshall Cook. Episcopal divine and member or the London Society of Psychic Re- search Dr. Cook is a we'll known cit- izen of, this city and man of stand ing in the community.
 Dr. Cook tells of the occurrence:
 Not long ago I received a letter from William B. Leckswell concerning whose spiritualistic findings there Is now so much comment, particularly In London. He was great friend of w T. Stead the late famous spiritualist and inclosed in the letter g. communi- cation he had received from Stead : spirit It ended with the words. T cannot say more, except that l would like to be photographed at the earliest opportunity"
 Tt occurred to me that 1t would bs difficult to secure a picture of Stead's spirit because the few reliable pho- tographers who have succeeded in talk ing photos of spirits are dead. About 10 days ago while at the studio of Alex Martin, a Denver photographed I suddenly felt nervous and wanted to sit for a picture. l mentioned to Mar tin that l felt i'll at ease and believed would pose. He smiled and wheeled the camera in place and l sat down In plain wooden chair and he took the picture. When he developed the plate there appeared just above my shoulder the face of William T. Stead I recognized 1t instantly. I am sending & the photograph without comment to BlackswelL" ..
