BOAT OVERTURNED.

PORT HURON, Mich, Nov. IL
a large steel freighter, overturned,
was found floating in Lake Huron
late Monday, about eight miles north
east Of Port Huron. Capt. Reid of
the wrecking crew which located her.
arrived here Monday night and said
her name had not been learned when
he left the scene. 1t is believed she
was abandoned during the terrific
gale which swept the lake Sunday
Capt. Reid said a heavy sea was
running when the freighter was found
and there was no distinguishing mark
To identify her. There are a number
of large steel boats similar in appear
ance TO the derelict plying the lakes
and the wrecking company had not
been notified that any boat which had
not been located had been abandoned.
Marine men think the boat may DO
an ore carrier which became uncon-
trollable in the storm and shifted
her cargo.
Capt. Reid returned to the scene
of the discovery with a wrecking tug
Monday night. He did not know
whether ii would be possible to tow
the wreck 10 the local harbOr.

TELEGRAMS USED
MOST BY WALL ST.
Bulk of Business of Telegraph
Companies is for Stock
Gambling Says Gardner
Different in England.
BY gibson GARDNER.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1l.-Ihe tele-
graph is operated principally for the
benefit of Wall ST. 1t does not serve
the public This is the Indictment
which has been brought against the
telegraph service as we now know 1t
in this country by the Investigations
which have been conducted by con-
gressmen proposing 10 have the gov
ernment take over the wire services.
More. than half the total telegraph
business in this country is made up OF
stock market, pool room and race
track gambling messages. Less than
ten per cent of the telegraph business
consists of social messages-the kind
people write at the desks in the tele-
graph offices. Newspaper dispatches
compose a greater volume, but the
principal use of the telegraph is to
further gambling-stock and other-
wise.
There are something like $4,000 tel
egraph offices in this country. The U.
s. postotfices number $1,000. Very
many telegraph offices are located In
little Out-of-the-way railroad stations.
The pOstotfices, even in the smallest
places. are located at point con-
venient to the whole population.
Better in England.
In England one may drop into the
letter box a stamped telegram. This
is picked up by a carrier and imme-
diatelv telegraphed TO its destination.
The cost is cent a word, with IL
cents as the minimum charge. The
telegraph is frequently used instead
Of the telephone for acrOsS-the-clty
r,7essa ges. so rapid is the service. Eng
land owns her own telegraph system
and operates it as part of the post
office. -
Social messages between English
men constitute between 80 ard 90
percent of the total telegraph pusl-
ness. in the United States one never
sends a telegram if il is possible TO
avoid ii. and the arrival If a telegram
to the average household causes a
shiver of apprehension-it usually
means death or accident. The posi-
bilities of social messages at low cost
arc unxnown to the American public.
When Rep. Lewis gets ready TO in
troduce his bill these and many other
pertinent facts will come out.

CLEVELAND. O., Nov. 1.-THE
most severe early winter storm in
many years EMBODIED Cleveland and
the immediate vicinity Sunday after
noon and evening. night and Monday
morning. doing many thousand dol
lars damage. Communication with
the outside world by telegraph and
telephone, rail or water was cut off
for thirty hours.
Railroad trains were from II To Is
hours late. Hundreds of telephone
poles in the city were blown down and
not only was street car traffic tied up.
but the entangled wires, many OF
them heavily charged. kept the most
of the pedestrians off the streets.
Driven by a wind which reached a
velocity of nearly 75 miles an hour
Sunday night, the snow fell 10
depth of from five inches to five feet
IN the drift.
One man was killed by being blown
from the top OF q box car. Many
street car passengers had narrow es-
capes when poles fell on the cars and
the windows were pushed in by the
enormous pressure which the wind
attained in the narrower streets.
No trains left FOR the south until
late Monday, but the Lake Shore rail-
road started five trains westward ear
.ly this morning and by pushing and
pulling each other they managed att
er several hours to dig their way out
of the twenty mile blizzard zone.
