BISHOP GRAFTON is DYING
Fond du Lac Churchman Rallies and
Asks to Be Placed in Chair,
But End Is Feared.

Fond du Lac.-After lying in a
Bemi-unconscious condition for
hours, Bishop Charles Chapman
Grafton, well known churchman and
bishop Of Fond du Lac, rallied and
asked to be placed in his wheel
chair, which he has occupied much
of the time this summer. His condi-
ton, however, is critical, and the end
is only question of days. Cable
grams have been sent to relatives
abroad advising them Of his condi-
ton. Bishop Grafton's turn for the
worse followed a steady improvement
covering a period of some weeks,
which had led him to discuss plans
for Thanksgiving celebration to be
held in September.

Asks Investigation of CHARGES
Made Against Him.
SAYS TRUSTS GAVE CASH
Declares George w. Perkins Under
wrote Fund Of $4,000, 600 to Con-
troll Chicago Convention for
Colonel Roosevelt.

Washington, Aug. Ex-senator Boies
Penrose of Pennsylvania introduced a
resolution in the senate on Thursday
calling for a sweeping investigation
into the Roosevelt campaigns Of 1904
and 1912 by subcommittee of the
senate.
Mr.. Penrose asks for a complete in
yestigation Of the charges against him
and the charges he himself made with
respect to the alleged contributions Of
the Standard Oil company to the ma
tional campaign fund of 1904.
The resolution as amended by Sen
ator Reed of Missouri, provides for
the summoning of Theodore Roose-
welt, Boss" Finn, George B. Cortel-
you and John D. Archbold of the
Standard Oil company.
Declaring that George W. Perkins
and his associates had underwritten
some three million dollars to nominate
Theodore Roosevelt for the presidency
Of the regular Republican party in the
present campaign for their own per
sonal uses, Senator Penrose inject
ed new element into the political
imbrogliO during the debate in the
senate.

TWO AMERICANS
DIE IN MASSACRE
Killed by Frenzied NiCaraguans
While Helpless.
HURTS AFFORD NO SHIELD
TWO Men From United States Fight
ing With Government Forces Are
Victims in Slaughter
at Leon.

Washington, Aug. 24-The massa
ere of the loyal Nicaragua troops
sent to defend the town Of Leon is
fully confirmed in a belated cablegram
received on Thursday from the Ameri-
can legation at Managua, dated Au-
gust 10. The affair was even more
disastrous to the government forces
than originally reported The state
department has instructed Minister
WeitzeI at Managua. to Investigate the
deaths of two Americans named
Phillips and Harvey Dodd, the latter
from Kosciusko, Miss, who was re-
ported to have been murdered by the
rebels at Leon.
According to the report received at
the state department, Dodd and Phil
lips we're fighting with the govern
ment troops. In the defeat they were
taken to a hospital badly wounded,
where they were killed in the massa-
ere which followed.
The murders, though not entirely
parallel, recall the killing of Cannon
and Groce by Zelaya in 1909, which
resulted in an upheaval that threw
the dictatos out of Office and sent him
to European exile. The state depart
ment is pressing for more infOrma-
ton.
A delayed dispatch from Corinto
says the rebels are taking towns be-
tween Leon and Chinandaga.
They are reported to have confscat-
ed large plantation and distillery
containing $4,000 900 worth Of alcohol.
With the arrival of additional Uni
ted States forces in Nicaragua, Rear
Admiral Sutherland, on the cruiser
California, will take full command.
The massacre of Nicaraguan troops
sent to defend the town of Leon is
fully confirmed in a belated cablegram
received from the American legation
at Managua, dated August 10. The
affair was even more disastrous to
the government forces than originally
reported. The rebels refused quarter
and annihilated the whole force of
defenders, with the exception of three
or four soldiers, who made their es-
cape by putting on the uniforms of
the rebels.
Advices to the state department
are that the situation is critical.
Though the American marines and
bluejackets are holding Managua
against the would-be looters and pill
layers, great danger is threatening
Corinto, on the west coast. Women
and children of the foreign families
in the town are sleeping aboard the
two United States warships there.

GHOSTS OF THE DEEP SEA
Phantom Ships That Are Said 20
Reappear at Times Of
Great Storms.

The number of phantom ships is
legion. Several of the vessels which
were wrecked in close proximity to
The scene Of the Titanic disaster are
even said to reappear in the same
spot on certain occasions. The Pack
ct Light is one Of these and the story
runs that whenever a storm is threat
eued ball of fire energies from the
spot where the ship sank, which
presently forms itself into the shape
Of a vessel and then sinks and dis
appears.
King George V. and his brother, the
late duke Of Clarence, when on their
cruise in the Bacchante from 1879 tc
1882 are stated to have seen the phan-
tom Of the Flying Dutchman and the
duke mentioned the fact in his diary
under date Of July II, 1881.
A thTee-masted frigate is said to
haunt the English channel in the vi
entity Of the Over lightship whenever
gale or snowstorm is threatened.
Hundreds of people have declared that
they have seen the apparition and
heard the cries Of the ghostIy pas
sengers. 1t is sometimes said to be
the phantom of the training ship
EErydice, which went down off the
Isle Of Wight on March "A, 1878, in
Yolving the loss of about 200 lives.
There are a host of vessels which
have not been heard Of since they
sailed, but one Of tho most marvellous
stories concerns the Marie Celeste, a
French passenger sailing ship. She
was sighted by the British ship High
lander on October 4, 1875, and in
reply to the signals gave the answer
Ais we'll" Two days later when
sighted she did not reply. She was
boarded, but not a living or dead per
son was found on board.
Everything was in perfect order,
luncheon was laid in the saloon, the
personal belongings Of the passengers
and crew were intact and a bottle of
medicine was found upright on the
captains locker. The log had been
kept down to the previous day, but
there was no entry to account for the
mysterious disappearance of all on
board Nothing was heard afterward
Of any Of the passengers and crew.

Washington, Aug. %. = Within one
hour after President Taft had for TIE
second time vetoed the legislative, eA
ecutive and judicial appropriation bill
because it carried a provision to abol
ish the commerce court, the house re
passed it over his veto on Wednesday.
The bill was passed over the veto
by vote of 1913 to 81; q Republicans
voting with the Democratic majority.
After the senate had refused to pass
the measure by a two-thirds vote the
conferees agreed to provide for the
commerce court until, as Chairman
Fitzgerald of the appropriations COM
mittee said, I'VE can get a Demo
cratic president"
By vote of 81 to 81 the senate re-
fused the executive bill which sought
to abolish the commerce court over
the presidents veto. Nine Repub-
lican insurgents voted with the Demo-
Gratis to override the veto and Sena-
tor Thornton (Dem.) of Louisiana

uniform system Of bills Of lading, and
regulating the transfer of such bills,
was passed by the senate after a brief
debate, without dissenting vote
