Of ST. Rombaut and other famous land

BUSINESS SLUMP
IS NOT GENERAL
Presidents Views Of Industrial
Conditions.

Washington, June 2-President VIII
son again expressed his conviction
that any present unsatisfactory con-
dition in business is not general, bu!
is less felt than in any other part OF
the world. Mr.. Wilson reiterated his
views at the first conference he has
had with the Washington correspond
ents since the Mexican situation be.
came acute. Questions on that sub
ject were barred.
In reply to inquiries concerning the
business situation, as discussed in his
statement last week to represents
tives of the Illinois Manufacturers as
sociation and other similar organiza-
tions, the president said it is his i'm
preston that any unsatisfactory con-
dition centered very largely about the
railway Offices and that is reflected in
the steel industry and in closely al
lied industries, which depend especial
ly upon railway development for pros
perity.
The president believes prosperity
would come with jump if the man
ufacturers believed it was coming. He
does not believe the tariff has any
thing to do with the depression.
Secretary Redfields statistics of ex-
ports over imports was cited by the
president as proof.

Fire loss at jamestown during the
last year, from May 26, 1913, to May
25, 1914, was only $3.50, remark
able small loss, as the city has been

retary R. E. Giese, at the city council
meeting Monday night.

IS GRANTED PARDON
Various Opinions on the Action
Taken by Board. ::

Bismarck, N. D., June 2.-George
L. Bickford, former state treasurer,
who was convicted and sentenced to
the state prison on an indiscriminate
sentence of one to three years, was
pardoned today by the pardon board
in this city after the resignation of
E. Smith-Peterson made it possible to
take unanimous action by the balance
of the board.
Under the rules of the board and
the statute, four members constitute
a quorum.
Justice Had Been Done.
Peterson's resignation left the field
open and taking into consideration
the thousands of names on the petit
tions, the rest of the board consisting
of Governor L. B. Hanna, Attorney
General Miller, B. F. Spalding and
Emil Scow, decided that in considera-
tion of restitution hav..7g been made
and the convicted mans property
having been turned to make good the
shortage, that justice had been done.
Therefore, the pardon.
Many Indignant.
Much indignation on the part of a
number has been expressed. Political
capital for and against the various
members of the board will be made
and efforts to hold this act up as let
ting down the bars for corruption in
office, is one of the themes that is
most frequently advanced. Others
seem to be we'll satisfied with the ac-
tion of the board.

manner in which the bow OF the
Storstadt was buckled and twisted
and it's anchors driven through it's
own plates. The Storstadt stayed
close to the Empress as long as it
could"
Few Bodies Identified.
Very few bodies have been Identified
because few were clothed in night
dresses. The task of Identification
will be terribly difficult and trying.
Scores Of survivors told their stories
here today and it is now certain and
positive that no man disgraced him
self, as the Empress sank.
No Tales of Cowardice.
There are many tales of heroism
and of sublime self-sacrifice. There
are no tales of cowardice. Sir Henry
Seaton-Karr, H. R. O'Hara, Commits
sioner Rees of the Salvation Army
are only few of those who gave their
lives to save others. All survivors
agree that Captain Kendall and his
men did all that was possible and that
no criticism can attach to hteir con-
duct.
Survivors arriving here and at
Montreal all agree on the outstand-
ing points of the disaster. The dis
aster came so quickly that there was
no time for intelligent concerted &C
tion. Hundreds of women, it is said,
might have been saved had they not
stopped to dress.
Probably the chief cause of con-
fusion on the Empress of Ireland af-
ter the impact was the fact that the
water rushing into the engine room
and flooding the dynamoes, threw
the ship into complete darkness.
Terrible Struggle Against Death.
The struggles of the terrified pas
sengers to escape cannot be imagined.
Though the crew members predom-
mated in the saved, no word of re-
proach for them has been heard. 1t
was pointed out that many were on
duty on deck and that those who
leaped after helping such passengers
as they could were able to swim.
Death Comes With Merciful Swiftness
Most Of the first and second cabin
passengers were caught in their beds
by the rush Of water.
In many cases indeed, survivors de-
clare death must have come with
merciful swiftness and before the vic
tins realized that their hour had
struck.

ANclENTTREA1Y FREES REDS
Secure Liberty Through Document
Signed In 1897.

Buffalo, N. Y, June 3.-A treaty
dated 1897, sanctioned by the senate
and signed by the president, was sue
cessfully used by three Seneca In
dams in the supreme court as a de-
fense against the charge that they
were illegally fishing in Eighteen Mile
creek. The arrests were made by a
deputy game warden.
The case came before Justice Pooley
on habeas corpus proceedings. Chief
Kennedy produced the book contain
ing the treaty which gave the Indians
perpetual rights to fish and hunt in
the section of the county where they
were arrested.
Justice Pooley held that the treaty
superseded the state laws and the In.
dams were released.

More than 800 bodies have been

Mistaken Signals the Cause.
Bungled signals were the cause
of the disaster that befell the liner,
Empress of Ireland, which was ram
med by the collier, Storstadt, and
sank off Cock Point, near Father
Point, Quebec, in the st. Lawrence
river signals, that in the fog were
misunderstood, caused the collier to
drive it's steel nose into the plates of
the Empress of Ireland, and resulted
in the latest disaster of the sea.
1t is admitted in the government
inquiry, both by the Canadian Pacific
authorities and persons connected
with the Storstadt, that Captain Ken
dali of the Empress and Captain An
derson, sited one another at dis
tance of two miles in perfectly clear
night. It was clear for time after
Captain Kendall having discharged
his pilot at Father Point, and was
heading out in full midstream on his
way eastward.
He saw the lights of the collier in
the distance and signals were ex-
changed tehn. As mariners will
tell you what often happens on the
broad mouth of the st. Lawrence, a
fog quickly settled down and both
ships were lost to one another. The
whistles of the two ships called to
each other in the mist and those calls
were mistaken.
Captain Elliott of the marine de-
partment of the Canadian Pacific ad-
mitted today, and friends of the
Storstadt insisted that as result,
from what could be learned tonight
without actual conference with Cap
tain Anderson, the Empress sought
to run across the bow of the collier.
The Canadian officials do not ad-
NIT the responsibility for the dis
aster and they insist that investiga-
ton will show that the Empress was
not in the wrong course.
ut has been said," explained Cap
tain Elliott, "that the Storstadt back
ed away Immediately after it hit the
Empress, and for this reason the En-
press was permitted to fill with water
more quickly than otherwise would
have happeend. As fact, the PROV
of the Storstadt was torn away from
the Empress by the momentum of the
two ships. That fact is shown by the
Jamestown weekly alert. [volume] (Jamestown, Stutsman County, D.T. [N.D.]) 1882-1925, 1914-06-04
