Jury in Ohio. the inference being
9iven that Martin was tied up with
this man, although this was done mere
~ by innuendo and inference and not
by direct charge. The effort. how
ever, was SO shrewdly attempted that
the ordinary reader Of the article

Gfpson in quoting the telegram re-

SIX PERISH IN STORM
LIFE SAVERS SAVE SOLE SURVIV-
OR OF WRECKED SHIP.
Captain Lashes Himself to Mast and
Awaits Succor for Nearly Forty
Eight Hours.

Washington, Nov. 4.-Daring on the
part of the life-saving crew OF the New
Inlet life saving station near Norfolk
saved the captain of the three-masted
schooner John Maxwell, which has
been beating itself to death on the Vir-
ginia coast for the last 48 hours.
Wireless Dispatches were received
from the keeper of the New Inlet sta
ftion by the United States life saving
service in Washington in which the
rescue was reported and the announce
.ment of the drowning of six members
of the crew was made.
The John Maxwell was driven ashore
during Friday nights n%ortheaster and
the rough lei prevented the life saw
ing crew from rendering immediate
assistance. The captain of the schoon-
Ter dashed himself to the mast, where
he was found when the sea died down
enough to permit the rescue party to
go on board. Six members of the crew
were washed overheard.

"a repetition Of the distress. Of 1906-'07,
when inability to get coal forced many

The commission makes these recon-

spection be at once instituted which
shall report thefts Of cars, and, finally,
that freight trains be speeded up

ADMITS CRIME
CONWAY coNFEssEs TO MURDER
OF SOPHIA SINGER.
SAYS He Killed Woman After She Had
Attacked Him With Razor
E~xonerates Wife.

Chicago, Nov. 4.-The last vestige
of doubt as to who murdered Sophia
G. Singer a week ago tonight was
swept away when Charles Newton
Conway confessed it was he who COM
nhitted the crime.
It was twenty-four hours almost to
the minute after his wife had brand
ed him as the girls slayer that "the
wooden-footed clown" admitted his
guilt.
Conway corroborated the story his
wife had told in every essential point.
In this respect his story was a sur
prise to the police. They believed
the queen of burlesque" also had
played a part in the killing. The
clown, however, took especial pains
to exonerate his wife.
"She had nothing to do with it." he
insisted, and he repeated this just as
earnestly after he had learned his
wife had accused him.
The gist of Conway's story was to
the following effect:
Sophia came to the rooms where
we were living together and asked my
wife to go out with her with two men.
She wanted her to do something that
was immoral. That made me angry
and we got into a quarrel. While we
were squabbling my wife left the
room. When she had gone Sophia
sprang up in a rage and attacked me
with the handkerchief containing the
doorknob.
81 snatched it out of her hand. AS
I did SO she seized a razor that was
upon by dresser. Then I struck her
with the weapon l had taken away
from her. Afterward I gagged her
and tied her up. I didn't think she
was dead. I had not meant to kill her.
But I did not want her to give an
alarm. My wife did not think Sophia
vas dead. After we had tied her
told my wife we would have to get
away. We went out the back way,
fled through an alley, and got a street
car. We went to Hammond and
thence over a tortuOUs course to Lima,
o., where we were arrested"
