OFFICERS DON'T BELIEVE 1T.

New York, Jan. 15.--Oficials Of the
West Virginia Pulp and Paper Com
pany gave little credence to the re-
port that their dam near Dobbin, W.
Va, was in danger. The company re-
Ceived word today from their plant
at Piedmont, w Va, fifty miles north
OF the dam that rumOrs were current
there that the dam had broken yes
terday but were not borne out on the
contrary it was said the water in the
river at that point was very low.
The officials believed he rumors had
grown out of the fact that on account
Of the low water resultant from the
cold weather two large gates in the
dam had been opened to insure sum
Client water for the Piedmont plant.
The country below the dam, it was
said here, is practically Uuinhabited
for fifty miles except for d small set
Element at a railroad station twenty
five miles distant.

badly smashed and coated with ice. but
the captains cabin remained intact.
The government steamer Lansdowne
stood by throughout the night, pre-
pared to take off the twelve men If
conditions became TOO dangerous.
Capt. McKinnon of the Westport, the
little coastal steamer which rescued
seventy two persons, said today that
when he came alongside the Cobequid,
he found all the passengers and crew
in the captains cabin, the only dry
spot on the steamer. Seas were break
ing over the main deck The Cobequid
was lying headed to the westward,
with the bow down and the stern well
out of water.
All of those taken on board the
Westport left the Cobequid In three
boats launched by the crew Of the
wrecked vessel. Notwithstanding the
gale and the boiling sea the transfer
was accomplished within two hours
without accident. The nine women
and children among the passengers
were the first to be taken from the
Cobequid and hauled aboard the West
port
When it was seen that the Cobequfd
would be a total loss the captain and
men who had remained on board
abandoned her and were taken TO st.
John on the government steamer Lans-
downe.
William c. Kinney. an official OF the
company owning the CobeQuid, who
was on board at the time of the wreck,
said today:
NO one was to blame for the loss of
the ship. The weather conditions We're
against us. The position Of the ship
for the first twelve hours after strik-
ing was critical the bottom breaking
eventually.
|She lost her steam and consequent
ly we We're without lights or fire. I'm
til we left the ship we were in the
captains and ladies' rooms and a few
in the smoking roms. living on biscuit
and corn meal. The discipline of the
crew was excellent and there was no
sign Of panic or characterization"
The officers and the passengers Of
the ship will probably remain IN Var
mouth 8 few days.

BANkEXAM|NER
STILL WORKING
TOCONSOLIDATE
NO DEVELOPMENTS IN THE MAT
TER, BUT MR.. GOODHART is
CONFIDENT DEPosIToRs WILL
BE PAID IN FULL.

After conferences with other bank
ers of the city throughout the day and
hard detailed work on the part of the
officers of the First National bank and
examiner in charge, r. w Goodhart,
lasting until late last night it was
announced that the situation was prac-
tically unchanged from the day be-
fore. The examiner still contends that
the bank is absolutely solvent, that
the depositors will be paid in full no
matter what course is pursued, but
he is perceptibly disappointed that he
has been unable thus far to bring
about a consolidation. A definite prop
oSftion has been made by the First
National bank to the Citizens and
Peoples bank and the same is under
consideration.
1t is understood that the First Ma
tionaI bank officers are willing to make
unlimited sacrifices in order to bring
about a consolidation of the business
with that of some other banking house
in the city in order that the depos-
itors may be paid in full at the earliest
possible moment
However, propositions have been
made to other financiers both in and
out of the city, and the examiner in
affairs of the bank without going to
liquidation, which would mean months
OF anxiety and delay.
Mr. Goodhart is positive that the
depositors will be paid in full and has
stated several times that the stock of
the bank is worth at least thirty cents
on the dollar.
Several men Of prominence have
been approached by depositors of the
bank with offers to sell these de-
posts for sixty and seventy per cent
AS a rule these depositors have small
amounts in the bank and are DESTROYS
Of securing their money, but in many
cases they have been told to hold their
deposits as the bank examiner has
given assurances they will receive their
money in full as soon as the affairs
of the bank are settled.

INHABITANTS FLEEING.

Piedmont, W. Va, Jan. 15.--A wall Of
water ! 5 feet high is sweeping down
the north branch of the Potomac river.
following the bursting Of the dam of
the West Virginia Pulp and Paper
Company ar Dobbin. w. Va, shortly
before noon.
According TO reports made here, in
habitants Of the valley are fleeing to
the hills and the greatest anxiety is
felt for the safety of the entire dis
trict. No loss Of life has been re-
ported.
An operator employed by the West
ern Maryland Railrc ad at Scheli, w.
Va. IF cen miles below the dam site,
sent a message to the company's Office
at Cumberland. Md. stating that the
water was at least twenty feet high
and was carrying everything before

I'm going to duck. Good night" he
concluded.
The dam is 1918 feet wide at the
breast, backing the water up for three
and half miles and holding three bill
lion gallons of water. 1t is go feet
high on the outside, IS feet on the
inside and built on q concrete founda-

5. SayTe and his wife, formerly Miss
Jessie Woodrow Wilson, among her
passengers, returned to port this

lighting service is far superior to what
it was a few years ago, but there is
room for vast Improvement and the
cry has been heard many times ask
ing for white way that will make
the business center a blaze Of light.
The hope for this now is very bright,
as an expert is in the city for the
purpose of installing a lighting system
for the business streets that will make
Pensacola a brilliant and busy city.
b. J. Block, of New York City. is
calling on the business houses today,
submitting plan by which the bust
ness center viii be rendered a blaze of
light. He is introducing here the new
Humphrey inverted gas arc lamp. This
lamp is $50 candlepower and according
to Mr.. Block costs but two cents an
hour for gas. It is proposed to place
these lights in front of the business
houses, thus brilliantly Illuminating the
business section of the city
Mr.. Block states that he estimates
the number of cubic feet TO be illu-
minated and places the lights accord
1ngly. He expects to place not less
than two hundred of the Humphrey
lamps in this city.
There Is no argument as to the
value of illumination. It makes a
splendid impression on visitors and
draws the crowds to the business dis
trict. 1t stimulates shopping and
largely increases the volume of bust
ness. 1t also strengthens the fact that
Pensacola business houses are up-to-
date in every respect and can furnish
everything that residents or visitors
demand
Mr.. Block will be here for several
days and will explain his proposition
when he calls on the business concerns
He was brought here by the Pensacola
Gas Company for the purpose Of max
ing this a brighter and better city and
that company stands behind him in
his guarantees.

to be reported to the custom house
