DREAMING IN TWO;
SHIP COSTS LIVES
Many Sailors Perish When Tanker
Collapses.-SOpe OF Them
Were Saved.

New York, Jan. 5.-The oil tank
steamer Oklahoma broke in two amid
ships without warning at 7:30 o'clock
Sunday morning off Sandy Hook, and
a large number ;of her crew of some
40 men perished.
The stern section, in which was
situated all neavy =. c9-inery of the
vessel, and on which there were 32
members of the, crew, sank inmedl-
ately. Eight members of the crew
were ~c>cued by ths Hamburg Amer
ican line steamer Bavarie, whose cap
tain said some of the Oklahoma's men
told him they saw an open boat OF
the Oklahoma put away from the
wreck with 10 men in it.
This information was contained in
a wireless dispatch received tonight
by the American line here
from Capt. Graalfs of the steamer Ba-
varia, which is proceeding to Boston
with eight survivors of the tanker on
board. The message, which came by
way of Siasconset, said:
"On January 5, at a. n., we sight
ed signals of distress. The seas were
high. At dawn we saw the forepart
of a steamer floating on the water. 1t
was the taAk steamer Oklahoma from
New York.
"At a. m. were close to the
wreck and lowered a boat. The men
on tae Oklahoma lowered themselves
into the boat exhausted by their ex-
perience of the last "a hours.
Capt. Gunther stated that last
Sunday at 7:3O a. m. during heavy
weather and without any previous
warning the ship suddenly broke in
:va between the lrjG! es. In about %
minutes the after part Of tee ship,
with a crew OF 80 men, sank. The
forepart was kept aloft by the bulk
mead. Lifeb oats either went down
with the ship or were smashed i'm
mediatIy after the catastrophe.
'.On the e,eniae Of January 4 a
Spanish steamer, probably toe Man
uel Calvo, has appeared in the vicinity
of the Oklahoma but was unable, ow-
ing to bad weather, to accomplish
anything Immediately after the Ba-
varia reached the scene this morning
the United Fruit steamer Tenadores
arrived at the scene of the disaster,
but there was nothing left to be
DONE
Another message frim Capt.
Graalfs said:
According to statements made by
sine of the men saved, a boat from
the stern part of the Oklahoma with
from eight to ten men in it was seen.
It's Whereabouts is not known

Thirteen Survive Oklahoma Wreck

Thirteen Survive Oklahoma Wreck.
New York, Jan 6.-Thirteen sur
vivors tonight had been accounted for
out of the 38 men aboard the tank
steamer Oklahoma when she broke in
two Sunday in a storm off Barne-
gat. Another story of heroic rescue
was written beside the tale told by
the wireless that brought the first
news of the disaster.
Until the Booth liner Gregory,
fresh from 1000 mile voyage up the
Amazon, arrived today, the eight men
taken off the Oklahoma by the steam
ship Bavaria were believed to be the
only ones saved. But the Gregory
had i've more of the shipwrecked
crew that her officers had dragged
from the boiling sea at the risk Of
their own lives.
So the Oklahoma's death list stood
at rs tonight, and there was little
hope that more of the crew would
be saved. What little hope remained
was based on the fact that the men
brought to port by the Gregory said
another Iifeboat besides theirs had
been launched from the sinking
steamer. There was little doubt, how
ever, that this was the boat sighted
by the revenue cutter Seneca with
three frozen bodies under it's thwarts.
The boat that carried the five sur
vivors within reach of the Gregory
contained but one body when it was
cast adrift after the rescue.

NEGROES OF NEWBERRY
CELEBRATE EMANCIPATION
Addresses Made to Large Gathering
the First of January-PIanning
for a Big Day Year Hence.

On January 1, 1914, the negroes OF
Newberry county assembled at Beth1ea
hem Baptist church, and, with songs
prayers and addresses, gave thanks
unts God for having brought them out
of the house Of bondage; and for the
blessings which have attended them
for the past half century
The notable features of the celebra-
ton wer the addresses by Benjamin
Bradley of Newberry, s. c., and
Thomas B. Neely of Columbus, Ga.
Speaker Neely, speaking on the sub
iect, "The Price of Freedom i'm
dressed his hearers that if they would
be free they must pay tie price OF
freedom. They must pay the price of
getting together, like tie tribes OF
Israel, before they can cross the Jor-
dan into the promised land. The ne
gro must pay the price OF preparation,
if he would be free, said the speaker
Education, property business enter
prises, and true manhood and woman
hood are the things which prepare a
race for real freedom.
He further said that Israel had to
fight battles and pay dear price for
a land that had been promised them.
They paid the price, said he, not
in Egypt, nor in crossing the Red
sea, but in the wilderness, where they
suffered because Of their sin, and in
Canaan, where they had to fight for
possession.
The negro, declared the speaker,
crossed the Red sea fifty years ago;
yet he has one more river to cross.
Eut, like Israel, the negro race must
prepare before it can cross. 1t has
got to fight its own battles and pay
the price for freedom.
He closed his adress with the decla-
ration that armies can not free peo-
pie Millions are dead on yOndef
battlefelds and Lincoln's proclama-
ton is issued, but the fettefs which
enslave the negro are yet unbroken-
the fetters Of ignorance, of poverty
and of race jealousy enslave any peo-
pie; and these must be broken if that
people would be free"
Everybody was much pleased at the
success of the celebration. 1t is hoped
that the interest which was engen-
dered on Emancipation day will con-
tinue to grow, to the end that on the
first day of 1915 there will be the
greatest celebration that has ever oc-
Cured in Newberry county.
