WILSON WILL DRAW
ROOSEVELT VOTES

Baltimore, July 6.-(Special.)-I state
ment made under his signature today
Mr.. Charles J. Bonapare, who was Attor-
ney General in Roosevelt's cabinet, said
today:
1T was futile to deny that the noni-
nation of Governor Wilson has rendered
the choice of Colonel Roosevelt next Mo-
vember less probable and his candidacy
less obviously needful in the public in
terest than would have been the case il
the same influences had triumphed here
as controlled the Chicago convention.
1T seems to the writer little less than
absurdsfor anyone to question that Roose-
velts candidacy win make the Presidents
defeat even more nearly assured than It
is at present" f4ftfft
Mr.. Bonapart says he will vote in No
veinber for, Roosevelt il the latter's name
is on the official ballot and If it is isn't
Re will vote for Wilson, but he believes
so many of his fellow countrymen who
would also vote for Roosevelt will be
strongly tempted, if the latter's name ~
not on the ballot, to vote for no one,
and even in some cases vote for William
H. Taft that he deems the candidacy
of Roosevelt "a reasonable safeguard
against national danger and disgrace"

Six Lives Lost at
Liganier

Scranton Pa, July ,e.--The Lackawanna
Railroad company today began an Off
cial Investigation into the railroad dis
aster near Corning, N. Y, on July 4,
when two-score persons were killed and
a half hundred injured. All the members
of the train. crews summoned, to Scrantoa
in connection with the inquiry were ex-
amined today and the investigation will
be continued next week. AT its conclusion
General Superintendent Rine, in whose
offices the Investigation is being held.
will give out a statement. The witnesses
are being examined behind closed doors
General Superintendent Rine said to-
night that the testimony today corrob-
Grated in every detail the findings of the
eompany's officials made in their investi-
cation at the scene of the accident
1t was shown, 1t is stated, that Flag
man Lane went back half a mile with a
flag and lighted green fnsee and that
Engineer Schroeder ran past at least two
semephore signals set against him. Flag
man Lane, however, 1t is stated, admits
he did not set torpedo. 1t was brought
out the mist was not heavy enough to
obscure an engineers view of the sema-
phores or the green fusee, which is sup
posed to be discernible in a fog
Engineer Schroeder has not yet given
any statement other than that he failed
to see the signals because of fog. His
whereabouts on the evening of July and
the possibility that he did not go to bed,
or If he went to bed did not sleep be-
cause of the noise the night of July
3, are being investigated.

ONE KILLED; MANY
HURT IN WRECK
Southern Fast Passenger
Hits Freight Train
Head-On

Greensboro, N. c.. July 6.-Engineer
Thomas c. Beach of Alexandria. Va,
was killed and more than so passengers
more or less seriously hurt when the
Southern railway limited train No. &c.
Atlanta to washington. collided head on
with a freight engine in the local yards
at $40 o'clock this afternoon. Beach died
at a hospital tonight of his injuries. The
wrecked train carried between $50 and
400 passengers and was running at a
high speed when Engineer Beach applied
the emergency brakes. and jumped from
his cab. His fireman jumped and es-
capped with slight injuries. OF the pas
sengers and crew among the most seri-
ously injured are:
Mrs. C. G. Termeuder of Chattanooga,
with injuries consisting of an ear cut
and serious 9abrasionseons shoulder and
knees.
The wreck was caused, 1t is said, by
the engine of train SO taking an open
switch, taking it from the northbound
intrack onto the southbound. Less than
200 yards from the open switch was
the freight engine.
The operator declared that Engineer
Beach disregarded a danger signal. OF.
ficials stated that the accident was due
to an open switch, the responsibility for
which has not been determined.

MOTHER AND CHILD
ASPHYXIATED BY GAS

New York, July 6.-Mrs. Mary E. Wehr-
kamp and her daughter, Katherine Wehr-,
kamp, thought TO have been related to
the Knabe family of piano manufacturers
of New York and Cincinnati, were found
dead from aspnyxation today at their
apartment in a fashionable section of the
city and tonight the coroner's verdict
placed the responsibility for the deaths
on the daughter. 1t is believed the daugh-
ter turned on the gas while her mother
slept and then lay down to die from the
fumes herself.
Little was known of the Wehrkamps,
but a letter in their rooms addressed
Dear Aunt bore the mark of the Knabe
company and was signed "Will Knabe,"
whose name appears as treasurer of the
company.
Members of the Knabe family of this
city, piano manufacturers. who were COM
municated with tonight, said that they
knew nothing of Mrs. Mary f. Wehr-
kamp, who, with her daughter, Katherine.
was found dead fro,., asphyXiaton in
Washington.
Cincinnati, July 6.-Ernst j. Knabe Jr..
of the Knabe Brothers company, who
lives here, said tonight that Mrs. Mary
e. Wehrkamp was his aunt, but he had
not seen her for about eight years. Il
think a mistake must have been made in
the statement that her daughter, Miss
Katherine Wehrkamp, in a letter adj
dressed to my wife. announced her in
tention of ending her life. Mrs. Knabe
had no acquaintance with the mother
and daughter. and has never received
any letter from her can throw no
light on the cause of the suicide.

GROSS FRAUDS IN
SHIPPING REVEALED

Washington, July 6.-Gross frauds and
violations of law in the exercise of the
milling in transit privileges accorded to
shippers principally in grain, grain prod
ucts and lumber have been revealed by
the Interstate commerce commissions ex-
tensive investigation on that subject just
completed. Railroads will be required to
establish drastic regulations to safeguard
the operation of the privileges in the flu
ture
The commission holds that it possesses
adequate power under the law to regulate
transit privileges and pay prescribed reg
uations that will free such privileges
from any illegal practices.
Some carriers have attempted to con-
form to transit regulations previously
made by the commission while others
have practically ignored them.
Thus says the commission, great
equities are destroyed in the handling
and the products under tariffs, according
to transit privileges are Unequal
The, .ules laid down by the commission
for polic\ag of transit privileges on grain
and grain products cover the situation ex-
haustively and are required to be estab-
lished by the carriers by August 10 and to
be maintained in operation for at least
two years.

FRENCH NOBLEMAN
TOURING THE WORLD

san Francisco, July 6.-Making the
unusual claim that the Normans dis
covered America 500 years before Co
lumbus Nicomte Jean de Becy. noble
man of Paris and vice president of the
Souvenir Normand, historical society,
is in this city on a tour around the
world.
Rocks bearing Norman inscriptions
have been found, he says. in Massachu-
sets and are known as the writing
rocks OF Dighton. Similar evidences Of
early settlement have been discovered
along the shores of the Chesapeake
These mounds prove conclusively. the
scientist declares. that 500 years before
Columbus announced to the world the
existence of western world, the Nor
mans had already set foot on the MAIN
land of America.
The vicomte says that the Normans
reached as far as Minnesota and he has
in his possession photograph of a
stone by which he expects to prove that
the Normans were the first whites to
set foot in America. He also claims the
traces of the vikings have been found
along the Gulf of Mexico and as far
south as Brazil.
