QUEBEC COAST GALE TAKES
MORE THAN 100 LIVES

st. Johns, N. B., June 1O.-Meager
and disconnected stories coming in
here, regarding the gale which swept
the Bay of Chaleur, between the
north coast of New Brunswick and
the Caspe coast of Quebec on Thurs
day and Friday of last week, tell of
a terrible tragedy. It is variously es-
timated that between 100 and 1875 lives
went out during the two days.
The victims were fishermen, and Il
particularly sad feature of the tragedy
is that in most cases more than one
member of family was taken.
The Bay of Chaleur fishermen ply
their craft in families, the father
owns the boat and his sons sail with
him as assistants. Thus it was that
practically every one of the fifty or
sixty boats hailing from Quebec and
New Brunswick fishing villages which
put to sea on Thursday last carried
father and sons or older and younger
brothers in their crews.
There is but Indifferent telegraphic
communication with the fishing vii
lagos nesting around the coast of
the bay and for this reason there
has been but little opportunity to get
a clear idea of what happened.
The boats, however, estimated be-
tween fifty and sixty, put to sea
Thursday last and but very few of
them have since been heard from,
while scores of bodies have either
been brought in by other vessels or
by fathers and sons, are lost. If true,
sixteen lives have been lost there.
The bodies of eight Caraquet fish
ermen have already been picked up
Will, at Shipegan six are known to
have been drowned, in addition to the
bodies found by Mr.. Breau's men. In
all, it is feared that from 100 to 1876
lives have been lost and thousands
of dollars damage done. The disas-
ter is the worst that has ever over
taken the Bay Chaleur fishing feet.

Would Expel Perkins.
Omitted Press Day service)

New York, June 10.-Ames Pinchot.
member of the New York state Pro-
gressive committee, has published a
4000-word letter, demanding that
George w. Perkins, chairman of the
national executive committee, with
draw from the party's affairs "for
the good of the party"
Copies of the letter were sent to
Roosevelt, Perkins and members of
the Progressive national committee,
May %. Perkins has not replied. He
is reported to be out of town. The
letter declares Perkins heads an ele-
ment fayoring private monopoly and
opposes labor's right to organize and
deal with capital through unions.
Pinchot's letter began: "a situa-
tion exists within the Progressive par
ty which must be terminated before
it can command general popular sup
port. The situation l refer to is this:
"First, an element in the party lead
ership, headed by George w. Perkins,
in favor of protection of private mo-
nopoly, and who, since the party's for
nation, has been taking active steps
to commit the party to that policy.
Second, the chairman of the execu-
tive committee opposes a recognition
of labor's right to organize and deal
with capital through unions, and fire.
quently has gone on record to this eff
feet. The party therefore is subject
to the charge that it is lukewarm or
even antagonistic to the interest. of
organized wage earners.
"On both of these subjects the par
ty has placed itself positively and def
nitely on record in opposition to Per-
kins, but the fact that the executive
leader and spokesman of the party is
an active member of the governing
bodies of the Steel Corporation and
International Harvester Company, two
great monopolies which have succeed
ed completely in exploiting the public
end crushing union labor, have led to
natural and unfortunate confusion
in the public mind"

Rallying the Forces
To Save the Levee
If That Be Possible

There has been little change in wa
ter conditions during the last twenty
four hours and the news from the
river delta has been rather meagre.
A great deal has been done, how
ever, in the way of organizing a force
of men and teams to work on the
Volcano Lake levee, and an effort will
be made to build the levee high
enough to prevent the water overtop-
ping it.
The advisory committee of the mu-
tual companies yesterday started a
force of men and teams to the levee
and they were passed across the line
without difficulty, while more men are
following them today. This is to uti-
lize the $4,000 which was appropri-
ated some days since.
This fund is being supplemented by
volunteer subscriptions, which it is
hoped to make a considerable fund in
the next day or two.
J. H. Edgar and George Varney
started out this morning to raise
fund of $4,000 exclusively among the
merchants of the valley as their con-
tribution to the work. 1t is estimated
that the mercantile stocks of the val
ley represent about per cent of the
values, and yet by this contribution
the merchants are proposing to raise
a fifth as much as the farmers have
appropriated through the mutual COM
panies, which is considered most lib
eral donation.
The supervisors met this morning
in special session and District Attor-
ney Swing read to them law which
authorizes them to do whatever is
necessary for the protection of county
bridges and roads from damage, and
with that end in view the supervisors
appropriated $4,000, to be used in the
protection of roads and bridges by
Engineer C. N. Perry, it being under
stood that it will be applied to work
on Volcano Lake levee.
A big force of Cinnamon will be
set at work on the levee, together
with the men and teams sent there,
and it is hoped to build the levee
a foot higher by Saturday, which it
is thought possible may keep the over
flow water from overtopping the
levee.
George A. Long has donated the
use of 800 horses and mules to the
levee work and from water district
No. there came this morning the
volunteer of 200 men to help wage
the fight on the levee, and they are
expected to leave at once for the
front.
Word came this morning that the
water at Volcano Lake had raised but
two inches in twenty-four hours, the
levee still being eight inches above
water.
Engineer w. j. Best, who is In
charge of the work at Volcano Lake
levee, is expected to come in to Ca
iexico this evening, when more de-
tailed information is expected.
Word from the river this morning
was to the effect that the water is
cutting considerably, but the fight
is being waged to protect the levee
by General Marshall, and it is be-
lieved the fight will be won. There
had been but slight rise in the river
at Yuma since yesterday, this morn.
ing's gauge being 28.3. At least two
feet more rise is expected, however,
in the next four days.
A dispatch printed below, from
Needles, expresses the belief that the
crest of the flood has passed that
point, though that is not taken as
final information here
