STOCK PLUNGER,
JAMES r. KEENE, DIES
AFTER LONG ILLNESS

Horseman and Wall Street
SpecuIator.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-The death
early today OF James r. Keene re-
moves a figure which was long
familiar in financial and sporting
circles, not only in this country, but
abroad. Mr.. Keene died in a private
hospital, following an operation yes
terday for abdominal trouble, the end
coming somewhat suddenly. although
it had been realized that his condl-

Owned Many Race Horses.
Mr.. ISeene has owned many. and at
the time of his death still owned a
few of the most prominent race
horses in this country and Europe,
and his winnings for many years were
the largest of any one American turf
man.
Very little is known of Mr.. Keene's
family. Some stories got around that
he had been born in London; there
were still other reports to the effect
that he had been born in Lynchbui.g.
Va. In a burst of confidence one
night late at Delmonico's he said:

Mr.. Keene was an unhappy man.
He was tired OF Wall Street. tired of
the turf, tired of sporting men, tired
of his triumphs and defeats in Wall
Street and on the turf he was tired
of all topics and all men. In his clos
ing days he only desired to be let
alone. He was a chronic sufferer
from dyspepsia, which depressed his

DYNAMITERS SEEK

All but Hockin Ask Freedom
Pending Appeal from
Verdict.

CHICAGO. Jan. 3-An attempt to
free thirty-two of the thirty-three
dynamiters convicted at Indianapolis
on bail pending. an appeal on appeal
of their case. was made here today
in the United States Circuit Court of
Appeals, Judges Baker and Seaman
sitting. Herbert S. Hockin will not
appeal.
The convicted leaders of the IRON
workers, through their counsel. E. N.
Zoline, asked for a writ of superse>
deas to stay execution of the sentence
inflicted by the United States District
Court. and for the admission of the
prisoners to bail, pending further ac-
tion~by the Court of Appeals
Zoline declared that in cases such as
the present the prisoners have the
right of bail, particularly as the de-
PENDANTS were sentenced to be sent to
Leavenworth before a hearing on a
writ Of error had been held.
"Dou you mean to tell me that a
writ of supersedeas should issue as
matter of right?" inquired Judge
Baker.
"That is my understanding. re-
piled Zoline. who quoted Supreme
Court decisions which he said bore
on the point.
Judge Baker stated that the point
of the writ OF error was not we'll
taken. zoline argued further that the
evidence on which convictions were
obtained at Indianapolis was vague
and inadequate"

Atlantic Fleet Has
Difficulty Retaining
Moorings.
JAMES RIVER OVERFLOWS;
FREIGHT CARRIED TO SEA
Fierce Winds Also Devastate
Middle West, Oregon and
Washington.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.--Fierce
storms of extraordinary violence
swept three widely separated portions
of the country today, paralyzing wire
doing property dam
age and menacing shipping on the
South Atlantic coast.
One storm, central in Virginia,
swept the Chesapeake bay and
Hampton Roads and partially sub
merged the shipping section of the
city of the Newport News with water
from the James river. Battleships of
the Atlantic fleet at anchor there
kept their moorings with difficulty,
but their launches and small boats
attempting landings were swamped.
Large quantities of freight on the
piers were swept into the sea Win
dows in large hotels at Old Point
Comfort were blown in and the
beaches about the Virginia capes
were strewn with wrecks of small
craft Revenue cutters patroing the
capes expect to find loss of life.
For a time the cities of Newport
News and Norfolk were cut off from
and all along the
coast territory as far South as At
lanta communication was interrupt
ed All schedules of sailings were
demoralized at coast ports. All cities
in the section reported destruction
of property by the gale, but no fa-
talities.
In the Middle West fierce wind
storm leveled wires between New
York and Chicago. and in the far
Western States of Washington and
Oregon communication was partially
paralyzed by another fierce gale.
RICHMOND. va. Jan. s,-Rich-
mond was storm-swept today by the
violent gale prevailing along the
coast line. Much damage was done
to property, but there were no in
juries to people.
