DESERVING Vessel

BARNEGAT. N. J., March L.
Eighteen members of the crew of the
steamer Charlemagne Tower, Jr.,
which was pounded to pieces off the
coast to-day early. are adrift at sea
or have been drowned, according to
a message received from the Point
Pleasant life saving station this fore
noon.
Earlier messages from the life-sav-
ers stated that all the members OF the
crew of the steamer had been rescued
in the breeches buoy, but 1t was
learned that only part Of the crew
had been saved in this manner. The
others on board left in a lifeboat
and disappeared in the fog.
The revenue cutter Itasca was sent
out to seek for the missing boat. 1t
is feared that it will sink in the fierce
sea that is running, II she has not
already done so.

WASHINGTON, March speak

denounced as false the reported state
ment of Charles Zeublin, former pro-
fessor of sociology Of the University
Of Chicago, in a recent speech here.

Representative Madden demanded
that Prof. Zeublin produce the names

on the roll call when only twenty
three were apparent.
Speaker Clark ridiculed the idea
of House ring. He also asserted
that no presiding officer would be so
brazen as to count twenty-three
members IL fifty members had aris-
en-, because any member could have
called for tellers and shown up the
incorrectness of the count by taking
it out of the Speakers hands.

HEIRS LOSE

ESTATE
Contestants Expected to File Bill
of Exceptions if Court
Sustains Finding.

The will of the late Joshua B. Craw-
ford, which has been the center of a
bitter legal battle between his widow,
Mrs. Mary Belle Crawford, and a
score or more Aeirs-at-law, was sus-
tanned in the report of Auditor James
L. Anderson, handed down Saturday
afternoon. The will leaves the es-
tate, valued at more than $250,000, 70
Mrs. Crawford. The ruling OF Audi
tor Anderson is considered a vindi-
cation OF Mrs. Crawford of the
charges brought by the heirs -at-law
that Mr.. Crawford was Of unsound
mind and that she unduly influenced
him.
The report of Mr.. Anderson goes to
the judge of the Superior Court for
confirmation, and if it is approved
will mark the end of the famous case.
1t is probable that a bill of exceptions
will be filed by the heirs, and a re-
hearing asked.
me report ueCldIeS Liiot hO foANNtS
of evidence shows that Mr.. Crawford
was of sound mind when he married
Mrs. Crawford, and fully capable Of
contracting a marriage.
1t declares that the evidence does
not show that he was ever drunk
ard, as was charged by the contesting
heirs, nor does it show that he was
drunk at the time of the wedding. The
report further states that the mar
rage was performed by lawful min
lister, and states that Mrs. Crawford
did not unlawfully induce Mr.. Craw-
ford to enter into the marriage.
The report states also that the con-
tention of the heirs that Mrs. Craw-
ford had another husband at the time
of her marriage to Mr.. Crawford was
not proven. 1t declares that inasmucn
as she had heard nothing of her for
mer husbands for seven years, the
laws of Georgia rendered her first
marriage invalid.

were severely blistered.

He spoke calmly and steadily.
His voice rose as he declared his
innocence and asserted that he
would be a "blood sacrifice In
the event that the State insisted
on the forfeit Of his life. At the
height of his address, his Ian
guage was eloquent but con-
trolled.
At the close of his brief speech he
said that he felt kindly toward those
who had prosecuted him and prayed
that God would deal leniently with
them in their terrible error.
As he concluded with the words, II
am now ready that sentence be pro-
nounced upon me" Judge Hill, who
had been listening attentively to. the
prisoner and observing his demeanor,
drew the formal document Of sem
tence toward him and read from 1t
the dryly worded legal phrases that
gave Frank to the hangman on April
II.
To Ask New Trial.
Attorney Arnold announced to the
reporters that an extraordinary mo-
ton for a new trial would be made.
but that formal notice Of 1t would be
withheld until the return Of Luther
Rosser, chief of counsel, who is ex-
pected back from a trip to New York
and Washington by Monday. The mo-
ton will be made on the ground of
newly discovered evidence and will
contain many of the affidavits which
have been made public recently.
Frank spent the forenoon with his
friends in the Tower. At 1885 o'clock
he was led from his cell by Deputy
Sheriff Plennie Miner and was taken
to the Thrower Building.
He was brought into Judge Hits
court at exactly IL o'clock. The reg
ular session of court had been ad-
1ourned some minutes before and
there were hardly more than a score
of persons who had loitered around
the building.

Spectators Are Locked Out Of
Court for Demonstration
Against Artist.

ROMORANTIN, FRANCE, March Z.
Ferdinand Pinney Earle, who, with
his latest affinity, Miss Charlotte
Herman, of Rutherford, N. J., is on
trial here for abducting his son, this
afternoon heard himself pictured as
modern Bluebeard. Counsel for
Nine. Fischbacher. mother Of the
child and Earle's first wife, resumed
hts speech at the opening of court
directing a bitter TRADE against the
eccentric American.
Earle, who had declared that he is
as famous as President Wilson or
Colonel Roosevelt, sat with a smile
on his face as he listened. He flushed
deeply when the audience of fash
.ionably gowned women cheered the
attack of the lawyer.
Earle wore a pink camelia on mis-
buttonhole, and white spats. while
Miss Herman wore a fashionably cut
gown and an enormous picture hat
The defendants sat apart and be-
fore court was called to order Earle
entertained the spectators in earshot
by making witty remarks to Miss
Herman, who smiled back.
"Acted in Hatred"
Counsel for Earle presented a writ
ten statement to the judge before
court was convened declaring that
Earle would seek no justification of
the "baser principles enunciated by
the most eminent French writer's such
as Anatole France"
In the course of his remarks Maitre
Boppo, lawyer for Nine, Fischbacher.
declared that when Earle kidnapped
his son Harold, he acted more in ha-
tired against his divorced wife than
in a spirit of love for his child.
Maitre Boppo demanded the maxi
mum penalty for Earle, but said ne
thought leniency should be shown
Miss Herman, who lis more unfortu-
nate in being in Earle's influence
than she is a criminal.
During the proceedings two riots
occurred. one outside the courtroom,
the other inside.
During the reading of letters from
Earle to his former wife, men and
women among the spectators leaped
to their feet shouting: stop, it's too
disgusting"
Gendarmes were called into the
room to restore order. The court
room was cleared and the doors lock-
ed then the reading of documentary
evidence went on.
In the meantime the incensed men
and women, who had been elected
angered by. what they had heard and
by the refusal Of the court to allow
them to re-enter began a demonstra-
tion against Earle outside the court
house, Crying:
"He should not be allowed to live
to further defile women"
For a time It looked as though SOL
diers would have to be called to re-
store order.
Letter to Affinity.
After the. case was resumed let
ter Earle had written to Dora Sid
ford a former affinity who eventually
married and then divorced Earle, was
read. In it the American vowed never
to wash his face until baby was
born to the woman.
"As a consequence" said Earle in
the letter, my face has become all
covered with pimples and all my cold
cream has been used up"
Earle's diary was introduced in or
der to establish his handwriting. 1t
contained a special set Of rules for
the moral conduct Of his wife.
The sketch OF hand in the diary
meant a blow, the sketch of a shoe
meant a kick and the picture of a
whip symbolized a flashing,
