STEAMER BURNING AT SEA.
No Signs Of Life Apparent on Tll.Fat-
lss'.. 2.G ed Ship. fss :, IT,

Halifax Nova Scotia, May s. An
unknown steamer on fire from stem to
stern and with no signs Of life on
board, was discovered 300 miles south
Of Cape Race yesterday by the
steamer SeydlitZ, from Breme nto New
York. Her position was given as
latitude 41:27 north and longitude,
SLOT west. The .fSey4itz Immediately
called by wireless tfor assistance, and
response came"ifom the Francoma,
50:miies to the eastward, bound for
Boston, and the Ofyt:Epic, 200 miles, to
the west, headed for New York.
The Seydiitz circled around the
burning vessel, but the smoke hung
so heavy about her that her name
conaE not be distinguished. -
As no small boats were discovered
in the vicinity, and as the Olympic
has passed not far from the scene u
or Is hours before, it was believed
here tonight that the unnamed vessel
caught fire some time after midnight
and that all hands were rescued by
some ship which had no wireless.
The weather on the Grand Banks to-
dav was moderate, anG it was thought
that any transshipment could have
been accomplished with no great diff
Guilty or danger.
So far as learned, no steamer equip
pea with Wireless reported herself III
distress, although part of a wireless
message picked up from some west
bound liner last night stated that she
was having boiler and engine trouble
and was making slow progress into
New York.

Mrs. William Nicholson, Of Shenan'
doah County, is Victim of

Winchester, Va, May 5.-Mrs.
William Nicholson, woman weigh
ing $50 pounds, was burned to death
at her home in Shenandoah county,
six miles east of Edinburg, Sunday
While attempting to rekindle an
open fire about 8 o'clock, her apron
caught fire. Before she could ex-
tineuish the blaze, the remainder OF
her clothing became ignited and the
flames spread to the furniture.
With Mrs. Nicholson at the time
were two small children of Mrs.
John Rinker, a neighbor. When they
saw the woman's clothing in flames
thew ran to their own home, giving
the alarm.
= Their mother hurried to the Mich
olson home, but by the time she
reached the scene the house was ! if
flames and she was unable to" enter.
Other neighbors arrived within a
short time, but efforts to save the
woman and the house were futile.
When the building had been con-
sumed the body of. Mrs. Nicholson
was found, burned to crisp, little
more than the bones remaining.
She had been overcome by the smoke
before she could reach the open air.
Mrs. Nicholson was about thirty
years old and daughter of Hamton
Hotel, of near Saumsville. She IS
survived by her husband, several
brothers and sisters.
Theascene of the tragedy is near
Joppa postoffice in the Upper Pow
ellis Fort Valley.

SENSATION IN ATLANTA.
Alleged Attempts to Hang Jim Conley
For Murder of Mary Phagan.

Atlanta, Ga, May S. Sensation
after sensation developed yesterday
at the hearing of the extraordinary
motion for a new trial for Leo NJ.
Frank before Judge B. H. Hill. Affida-
Wit after affidavit was introduced by
Solicitor Dorsey, charging bribery
and alleging o deliberate attempt to
manufacture false evidence to hang
the negro, Jim Conley. Just before
the hearing adjourned Solicitor Dor-
sew announced that the matter would
be taken up by the Crane jury and
that numerous indictments would lie
reluined.
Judge Hill created a stir by an
rourcing that he wishes an order is
sued for the return Of Annie MauGe
Carter, the negress, who swore for tho
defense that Conley had confessed 10
her that he was the murderer Of Mary
Phagan.
Probably the most amazing affida-
Wit was one by Rev. c. 3. Ragedale,
in which the minister directly charg-
e,v that Attorney Arthur Thurman
had inspired the famous confession
affidavit and Thurman personally
paid him 5000 and hac; paid R. l.. Bar
Der 500 for, their signatures.
Dan S. Lehon, chief aid to w. ],
Burns, was ruled into contempt fol
denouncing Solicitor, Dorsey. Lehor
broke out with, "Your Honor, I am al
american citizen and I've been a Pc.
lice officer for twenty years and
never have encountered such outrage
Gus procedure as this. The solicit1i
has been trying to make it appeal

Cumberland River Improvement.

The announcement from Washington
that the Board OF Army Engineers has
decided to recommend the canalizauon
Of the Cumberland River will bring
huch qualification to those Kentuckians
and Tennesseans who have been hoping
and striving for this mueh-needed i'm
provement.
The Federal Government already has
spent great deal OF money on the up
per Cumberland with some resultant
benefit. To secure benefit in the largest
degree, however, it is necessary that
the scheme Of improvement should be
carried out on the original plans. The
building of complete series of dams
will give the river nayigable stage Of
water all the year around. In this way
there will be reliable outlet for the
products Of the country along the up
per Cumberland. In the present con-
ditions of the waterway there is no such
outlet, as the region is without railroad
facilities and its progress is sorely han
dicapped.
Regular and dependable transporta-
ton lines along the river would develop
large steamboat traffic and would
quicken the energies and vitalize The
industries OF great expanse OF coun-
try. The region has abundant mineral
resources and is agriculturally product
i've, but buried wealth is of small value
and agricultural and industrial efforts
need the stimulus OF marketing facil-
tiles with other sections OF the country.
In the absence of reliable means OF
shipment there is little incentive for
farmers to produce any large surplus
OF their products or for manufacturing
and mining companies to undertake the
utilization of the country's abundant
raw material.
The Kentucky and Tennessee Sena-
tors and Congressman who made such
valiant fight for this improvement have
earned the gratitude OF the entire pop
ulation OF the upper Cumberland coun-
try. -Courier-Journal.
