long after Januarg /. according TO Miss
Mariana Dove, treasurer of the fund.
Miss Dove refused last night 10 say
how much money had been collected up

Speaking of superintendent Max
wells circular letter calling attention TO
the Board of Education's bylaw, which
eays teachers shall not receive gifts
from pupils nor contribute TO testimO-
mails for fellow teachers, Miss Dove
said IL was similar TO one that has been
sent TO principals of schools for the last
fourteen wears at this time of the year.
This "honorarium" has received the
condemnation of many. both in and out
of the Interborough Associations ;
ranks. and according to one of the
teachers in a downtown school, who
discussed the matter with n reporter

svelled until there were ten thousand
members. Vast numbers have dropped

ton of raising "A fund for Miss Strachan
was first broached. and hundreds of
teachers have refused to contribute TO

way to recognize Miss Strachan's

answered that no one was hurt. Mr..
Shepard feared that the doors had been
twisted so that the women would feel

Then he gave thought to those in the
other part of the train. Leaving Mr..
Pryor with the women, he clambered
out OF the darkened car and ran
through the soft mud to the engine,
which had left the track. The fireman

District Attorney Whitman learned
the details yesterday OF two more
specific stories of police graft on dis

does not expect to be able to get this

for presentation TO a grand jury inn
med.ately. however, and he does not in
teud to take that step until ne is rea-

The facts are that the stories Of this

scores of patrolmen, sergeants and licu-
tenants. but are not concentrating upon
any one man or group of men. Al
though no one connected with the

NINE MONKS
Turkish Mob Storms Bulgarian Mon
astery and Deals Death.

Sofa, Bulg.-Storming a Bulgari-
al monastery near Uskab, a Turkish
mob decapitated nine monks while
they begged for mercy.
The fathers were assembled in
prayer when the mob appeared be-
fore the monastery and demanded ad-
mittance. The order was refused and
a volley of shots was fired through
the windows. Still the monks refused
to open the doors, and the mob be-
gan a fierce assault with a battering
ram. One of the big steel gates was
shattered and the frenzied Turks
rushed to the altar where the nine
monks were kneeling before a statue
of the Virgin, praying that they be
shielded from danger.
Without listening to the pleas of
the terror-stricken victims. the Turks
dragged them from the altar and
struck off their heads one by one.
The slaughter of the monks was be-
lieved to have been inspired by the
blowing up of a Turkish mosque sew.

HAWLEY IS DEAD
PRESIDENT OF MINNEAPOLIS G.
ST. LOUIS RAILROAD EXPIRES
At NEW YORK.
ILL FOR SEVERAL E E
Recent Dispatches Indicated Railroad
Magnste Wa Slowly Improving
Controlled 7,922 Miles Of
Railroad.

New York, N. Y.-Edwin Hawley,
president of the Minneapolis & st.
Louis railroad and one of the leading
railroad magnates In this country,
died at his home here after an illness
of several weeks.
Mr.. Hawley had been a sufferer
from indigestion for some
time and for the last few weeks had
been confined to his home. Frequent
reports that his condition was serious
were denied.
Among the companies of which Mr..
Hawley was a director were the Colo
RADIO & Southern railway, Colorado
Fuel G. Iron company, the Evansville
& Terre Haute railway, the Mime
apolis & st. Louis, the Iowa Central
and the Hooking Valley railroad.
Early in the winter Mr.. Hawley had
an attack Of grippe and returned to
work before he had sufficiently recov.
cred. AS a result he suffered a re-
lapse and his physicians told him that
he would have to take a long rest.
Since then Mr.. Hawley has been con-
fined to the house, and recently he
began to suffer from indigestion.
Early today Mr.. Hawley was seized
with heart failure and death soon fol-
lowed.
Notwithstanding his illness, Mr..
Hawley kept in constant touch with
his business affairs.
Edwin Hawley was born in Chat
ham, N. Y, sixty-one years ago. He
went into the commission business in
Chatham and later went to New York
city, where his first work was In the
tugboat transportation business. He
obtained a clerkship in the general
offices of the Erie railroad. Just how
he shifted from that place to the Of
fees Of the Ohio & Mississippi Rail-
road company is not Of record, but
that Is what he did. His opportunity
came when he was found by Coils p.
Huntington, who owned the Southern
Pacific. Huntington put him in charge
of the New York office. Hawley made
a striking success in this work. Just
then K. III. Hartman became the pow
err in the company and put in his own
man. Hawley resigned. Afterward
Hawley rose rapidly and came into
control of the following roads:

and deposited about a mile off shore.
This work is about completed and 1t
is expected that within a week or ten
days only the after part of the ship,
which 1t is proposed to float away in
tact will remain in the Golfer dam.
The after turret of the ship has
been unbolted from the deck and is
ready for transfer to the shore. II
has been given to the city of Havana
and is to be erected as a monument
in a public park. One of the masts is
now at Governors island, and the
other is aboard the collier Justin,
awaiting transportation to the nation
al cementery at Arlington, where it
will be placed over the graves of the
victims of the Maine.
