using the United States mails to defraud

Freeman, who was sentenced a year
ago, has been at liberty under $l50,000
bail pending his appeal. Hawthorne and
Morton, convicted by the same jury,
served sentences of year, which were
subsequently commuted.

thorne, son of the novelist, and DIR. Nor
ton, whose father was the discoverer of
ether, have been in frequent attendance,
the two declaring that if Freeman
should get new trial they would be
equally entitled to one.
The same jury indicted all three men
and another jury heard the evidence at
the trial and found them guilty. Judge
julius NJ. Mayer in his decision yester-
day affecting the status of Freeman's
case said:
81 am convinced on all the facts in
the case that the defendant did not have
the impartial jury to which he was en-
titled"
Kehoe, the juror objected to by Free
man, was found to have bias for the rea-
son that he was a member OF tine in
dieting jury which investigated the Haw-
thorne mining enterprises before he
served on the trial jury,

and five other members of the crew

last night in relayed wireless message
from the steamship Caracas, which has
on board four survivors OF the schooner
The dispatch said the Simpson sank
last Saturday morning, March Il, but
gave no details of the catastrophe. 1t
came from the Caracas, presumably the
American steamer of that name bound
from San Juan, Porto Rico, and was
picked up by the battleship Kansas, now
at target practice off the Virginia capes.
The message said:
Received from Caracas-F Hesham,
second mate; John Turner, seaman

l3 March. and abandoned and sunk
morning 81. All remainder of crew, cap

Hattie P. Simpson, l,265-ton vessel,
was built at Waldeboro, Maine, in 1891,

sailed from Philadelphia on March 10 for
Galveston, in command of Captain
Strong.
According to wireless messages re-
ceived here from the Caracas, Captain
Strong of the Simpson and five men of
the total crew of ten were drowned
The schooner was loaded with 1850
tons of anthracite coal and went down

and those last with him did not have
time to escape.

hauled by the Caracas was latitude

Blown Up

Norfolk, Va. March p. The wreck of
the Old Dominion liner Monroe sunk in
January by the Merchants & Miners
packet Nantucket, with a loss of 40
odd lives has been blown up by the rev.
enue cutter 0nondaga which returned
to port here yesterday.
Four explosions OF gun cotton re-
moved all of the wreck that was a
menace to navigation. No bodies were
brought to the surface and thus the
statements of the divers that they had
been swept out by the strong submarine
current were verified.
The work of destroying the wreck was
very spectacular. Tons of water and
debris from the sunken ship shot high
in the air with every charge. The hulk
now is covered by 54 feet OF water.

itant suffragette arson squad is believed

near White Abbey, on the Belfast
Lough. The house was fully furnished
but was unoccupied except by care
takers. The damage is estimated at

 PROGRAM AT THE ROYAL TODAY

The mere mention that The Perils of Pauline" is the attraction at the Royal is sufficient to guarantee packed houses, so it will be well to go early in order to assure a choice seat either today or tomorrow, when the fifth episode Of this wonderful story will be shown.
 In the previous chapter, Pauline ei- fected a miraculous escape from a watery grave through the timely aid of her adopted brother and sweet heart Harry.
 In order to avoid further opportun- ity for the villianous secretary to ac- complish his intentions and put Pau line out of the way so that he may in- herit her fortune Harry again pro poses an immediate marriage. Being again refused, he arrouses Pauline's jealousy by paying marked attentions to her lady friend, and, in doing so makes matters worse.
 This is the most interesting and eX- citing of the episodes thus far shown, and will more than ever endear this pluGky little heroine in the hearts of the public.
