xaking Water Fast.

NORFOLK. Va. Feb. i9.-Wireless
calls sweeping over the sea from the
radio towers on the middle Atlantic
coast, revenue cutters and numbers
of steamships today found no trace
of the fiye-masted schooner Kineo, of
Bath. Maine, last reported yesterday
making twelve inches of water an
hour and in a disabled condition.
The schooner with her crew of
eleven had been in bad fortune for
the last month: twice she had her
sails blown away by gales and once
put into port for safety
When she was sighted by the
steamer City of Atlanta yesterday,
it did not seem necessary for the
liner TO take off her crew and the
revenue cutter Onondaga began a
search. The kineo was then 160 miles
northeast Of Diamond Shoals.
DIGBY. n. s.. Feb. 1e.- The
schooner Herald, from st. John for
Weymouth, is ashore at Weaver S

arrest of Andrew Alpergesse at his
home on the Great Notch road, last
night, by Detective Sergeant Lord,
the police believe they have the head
of New York gang who for the past

on such systematic scheme of rob-
berries from transportation and steam
ship companies that their loot runs
close to $25,000.
The prisoner is held on complaint
made before Justice of the Peace
John Keyes last night, charging him
with being fugitive from justice,
as he had been indicted by the git D
jury of New. York county on charge
of grand larceny, preferred by the

IGNORANT P|NEyS
Gov. Fielder Believes Films
Will Prove Salvation OF
Jerseys Degenerates.

JERSEY CITY, Feb. 19.--Governor
Fielder believes that the moving pic
ture may prove the salvation OF the
Piheys. the forlorn men and women
who live in the great pine belt
stretching over Ocean. Atlantic and
Burlington counties. He told the men
Of st. Johns Episcopal Church last
night that the movies. along with
music and lectures, ought to be held
out as inducements to these people
to strive for something better than
they get under present conditions.
He would make the schools in the
district centres for this social re-
form.
Social service was the keynote of the
dinner given at Wintringham Hall,
with the Governor and Right Rev.
Edwin S Lines, bishop of Newark, as
the chief guests. Bishop Lines and
the toastmaster, Rev. George D. He'd
ley. spoke of the movement for social
service in their church and Rev. Au-
gustine Elmendorf. executive secre-
tary of the Newark Diocesan Commits
sion for Social Service. said a word
in behalf of the ]. W. w. MIR. Elmen-
dorf recently introduced Elizabeth
1uTly flsHH dt d ouhudS ihSctAii .
after the Board of Education had re-
fused to let her speak in the DickiIi-
son High School.
Governor Fielder, who made tour
of investigation through the pine belt
last year. said he would not believe
that the Pineys were a worse lot than
might be found in other States which
have large tracts of undeveloped
woodland to whichm the criminal and
the degenerate may flee to cast their
lot with a people already sunk in
squalor and mental deficiency. He
described the conditions as terrible
and asserted that the State must
exert itself if they are to be remedied.
He urged the compulsory education of
the children and the attraction Of the
parents and older children to social
centres through music and pictures.

DEFENDS
KENNEDY'S NAME
Denies Dead Treasurer Feared
Perjury charges-Was Not
in Bonding Business.

BUFFALO. Feb. 19.-rolIowing the
funeral yesterday of John J. Kennedy,
State treasurer, who committed sui
eide on Sunday, Michael T. Dirnber-
ger. jr.. his attorney. gave out a state
ment In which he denied that District
Attorney Whitman, of New York, had
intin1ated to him that charge OF
perjury was to be made against Ken
nedy because of his testimony before
New York grand jury in regard to
his relations with Charles F. Muir
ply. jr.. and George II. Mcclure.
He also classed as absurd the state
ment that a prominent Tammany Of
fetal had control of $4,000, 000e State
funds and that Kennedy was to have
testified in regard to this before the
grand jury on Monday.
"Mr. Kennedy told me about the
questions which had been asked OF
him before the grand jury concerning
his supposed connections with Mr..
Murphy and Mr.. Mcclure in relation
tc the bonding business, said Dirn-
berger. "He told me that he answered
that he had no connection whatever
with either of these men In the bond
ing business.
"The other article. to the effect
that MIR Kennedy was about to
testify that a prominent Tammany
official had the control of $50. 600 000
of State money and named the banks
in which deposits should be made,
and that certain bonding interests
dictated to said mythical politician
where said deposits were to be made,
seems absurd upon it's face.
I'm the first place, the largest
amount of money that the State
treasurer has ever had under his
control was in the neiShborhood OF
sos, 100000, and that has been only
in the last few weeks. During most
of last year the amount of money
under the State treasurers S control at
NO time exceeded xaaooapoe.'

two always before her, but removed
