NO ONE KNOWS, AS YET.
Wilson Says That No Cabinet Port
foiios Have Yet Been
Issued.

Princeton, n. j., Jan. PRESIDENT
elect Wilson has maze it clear that
nobody in the United States knows.
as yet, who is going to be in his cab
met, or what will be the program he
will suggest for the next congress.
He declared that he had not offered a
single cabinet portfolio to anyone and
has not reached any conclusions as to
plans for the extra session.
Mr.. Wilson stated that while he had
c~anvassed a variety of subjects and
had talked over many names with
Democratic leaders. he had not given
a definite intimation in any direction
either as to what his selections or
his course with respect to legislation
would be. He indicated, however, mat
he expected the extra session would
not be devoted exclusively to tariff
making, and said he would, in a spec
ial message, specify some of the sub
jects upon which he would like to see
legislation enacted.

Those Peruna Testimonials
How Are They Obtained?

refer such questions to a body Of men
who are already convinced Of the
worthlessness of proprietary uedi-
cines. To give such a body Of men
the unlimited authority to decide
whether our claims for Peruna are
valid or not Is a manifest violation OF
constitutional rights.
My claims are based both on cred
liable theoretical grounds and upon
!r-efutable statistics. But l am quite
willing to have our claims as to the
composition of Peruna properly and
thoroughly investigated, and if found
to be false a proper penalty should
be fixed. Or If l am making any
statements concerning disease, as to
the nature, symptoms or danger OF
any disease, II l am making any such
statements as to unnecessarily fright
en- the people by false assumptions, I
am willing to submit to any unbiased
tribunal or Investigation.
Mrs. Alice Boyle, 800 Clinton ST.,

newport news, jan. W. No
survivors, of the steamer julia Luck
enbach, rammed and sunk in the
Chesapeake bay by the British tramp
steamer ~IndrakaVla, arrived here n
told how twenty-five of their number
had gone down without a chance for
life. The fortunate eight, after a six
hour battle with the gale which swept
the coast, were taken from the rig
ging of their sunken ship by the Dan
| ish steamer Pennsylvania and brought
here. ...... .....
About To Anchor. .
The ~Luckenbach, from Port Tampa
to Baltimore, was about to anchor on
Tangier Gas Buoy, at the mouth OF
the Potomac, early yesterday, when
the IndrakauIa caught it and cut the
steamer practically in two. 1t went
down like a rock and only>the men on
deck had a chance for life. The Indra-
kaula. badly damaged and in danger
of sinking, drew of and beached.
Captain Gilbert of the Luckenbach
and his wife were among the lost.
The survivors had little more than
taken to the topmast parts of the rig
ging of the submerged hulk when the
gale passed over the bay and for six
hours they fought for life while some
Of their number, exhausted, dropped
off one by one to death.
With a wind blowing at cyclonic ve-
locity and waves beating against
them, the hardest ones held fast un-
til their clothes were torn to shreds
and they were on the verge of ex-
haustion.
Chief Engineer Chris Knudson was
ono of those in the rigging. He en-
dured the gale until his hands were
bleeding from gripping the ropes. He
became exhausted and dropped into
the sea.
The Pennsylvania could not reach
them at first, even with lifeboats, be-
cause Of heavy seas. After many I'M
successful attempts lifelines were run
to the struggling men and they were
taken off one at a time. When taken
on board the Pennsylvania some were
unconscious.
According to the survivors, Captain
Gilbert ana the first and second Off
GERS were standing on the bridge when
the collision occurred. There was no
opportunity to give the alarm to those
below. Captain Gilbert made q dos-
perate effort to reach his wife and
when last seen was swimming aft of
the sinking ship.
Il don't know how | escaped" said
Chief officer Hunt. After the ship
went down l found myself dangling
in the rigging and there ! stayed.
Not a lifeboat was to be had, so
quickly did the L~uckenbach go down."
Crew Mostly Foreigners.
Baltimore.-With the exception Of
Captain Gilbert, First officer Hunt
and n of the engineers, the crew
of the Julia Luckenbach was COM
posed of foreigners. They were
signed here December IL, just prior
to the sailing of the steamer for Port
Tampa, laden with phosphate rock

Judge A. r. Anderson who heard the
trial, probably will delay freedom to

Procedure Condemned.
Characterization passed by the
Chicago Federation of Labor con-
demned the entire procedure by which
SO labor leaders were convicted in
indianapolis of participation in a ma
tion-wide '~'dynamiting conspiracy"
Federal Judge Albert B. Anderson, the
government agents and the jury were
included in the sweeping condemna-
ton, which the conservative element
in the organization vainly opposed.
The resolutions did not go through
without a fight. Edwin r. Wright,
president of the Illinois State Fedora
ton ca Labor, begged the delegates
TO look before they leaped."
There is no need for haste" he
said. This matter can be delayed
two weeks without harm, whereas or
gained labor may be irretrievably
injured by the passage OF these res
olutions in their present form. Or
g~anized labor was not on trial at In
dianapolis. Organized labor does not
approve of the acts of violence of
which these men are charged" .
An assessment of five cents per cap
ita, to raise a fund of about $4,000
for the assistance of the convicted
mems families, was planned.
