Battered Hulk of New Light ship Halifax Is Found Among Breakers on
 LiscOmb Island

Halifax. N. S., May 93.-The battered hulk of the new lightship Halifax No l9 was found among the breakers on Liscomb Island, five miles from tie mainland to- day. She struck during dense fog, and 1t Is believed her crew of 70 Scotchmen are lost. Six bodies bearing life belts had been recovered up to dusk tonight by the steamer Dufferin. Both life boats, which the vessel carried, were found. A search of the rock islands in the vicinity was had got through the surf alive
 Word reached the Canadian marine de- partment here tonight that the hull of the lightship was broken In two.
 The ship was on her maiden voyage from her builders yards al Paisley. Scot land, to take up her station off Sambro ledges near Halifax harbor. Captain Mac Beth and Chiem Engineer Mckenzie are the only members of the crew known here. The men were shipped in Glasgow
 The government steamers Stanley and Lady Iaurier were ordered to search for The sIanadi marine department feels little hope that anyone on board escaped. Long rollers break over the jagged rocks with terrific force in the calmest weather. All vessels give the spot a wide berth.
 The first intimation of the disaster was brought in by the Duffer in when she ar- rived with three bodies. She went back to LIscomb Island later in the day to con tinue the search and found another body.

Tampico, May 23.-Brought to a halt in his march to the south, Gen. More los Zara goza the defeated federal com r mander of the Tampico garrison, once more will have to face in battle the constitutionalists who drove him out of this place. or enter the wilderness Of mountains in the Huasteca district to his west General Zaragoza was at ozumama, 60 miles from Tampico yes terday according to advices received here by the constitutionalist command : CT. with force estimated at from 2000 to 5000 men
 one thousand constitutionalists un- der Colonel Pafarrate crossed the river south of here today and moved in the direction of Ozuuama. Another force of constitutionalists of Gen. Candido Aguilar's command Is moving north ward. with Ozuluama as the objective point. When it was learned that zara- goza had chosen to march to the south through a region sprAnkled with pros porous villages and foreign interests, chiefly oil wells, General Caballero or dered movement that would force him either to stand or defect his movement to the west. If the federal commander chooses the west, his path will be obstructed at Tantoyuca by Aguilar's men.
 Business here had resumed norma basis; the theatres are open and con- fidence has been fully restored. Ey- erywhere as on the first entry of Cab allero and his troops, perfect order fl being maintained.

If Called Principal Business Would Be Consideration
 of Statewide Reforms
MIND NOT FULLY MADE
 UP ON THE SUBJECT
May Call Solons to Meet Extraordis nary Occasion-Admits Necessity of Giving Jefferson Relief
 From Fee System
By L. $. BETTY

Monteomery May 2s.-tspecial) )--Ala- oama lawmakers may meet In extraordi- nary session before the end of the pres ent administration. should there be special session of the legislature,a the principal business before that body would be tho consideration of statewide and local reforms. The passage of only such meas ures as would accrue to the best inter- ests of the people in general.
 But the governor of Alabama has not yet decided to call special session of the legislature. He declared to The Age Her aid correspondent tonight that his mind was not made up on the subject; moreover that he saw no immediate necessity for issuing call for special session
 "A special session of the legislature may only be called to meet an extraordinary oocasion,' he said. The constitution of tho state is explicit on the subject of special sessions of the legislature, and unless an extraordinary occasion arises. l see no reason why l should call the states lawmakers together"
 The governor admitted that the most pressing need for special egsatiove session was the necessity of giving relief to Jefferson county from the iniquitous fec system. He declared to The Ape-Her-
 
 slider any reform more pressing than the enactment of an anti-fee measure for Jeff ferson county, and gave assurance that should he call a special session he would incorporate a suggestion for such A re- form in his call. The governor continues;
 "l have been urged by many proml- nent citizens of Birmingham and Ieffer- son county to call a special session of inc. legislature in order thai an anti.fee sysaf tenn might be established in that county. There is no question but that Jefferson. county needs this relief, and should call a special session 1 should recomme nd the inaugura ton of that important re- form in my message. The majority of the people of Jefferson county have si- ready declared that they prefer the anti- fee system in that county. and since Jeff ferson Is by far the greatest sunerer in tho state as q result Of that old anti. pnated and inaliitous pian. | spould like to furnish the relief 1t desires. ~es- @s-'
 should the governor call an estraordi- nary session of the legislature. he would probably advocate many other important reforms, chief of which would be the en- actment of measures looking to many iu- dieial changes in the state The governor has evlnced remarKabe interest In all phases of judicial reform since he as- suncd the office of chief executive of the state. and it was through his influence and offices that the statewide mcve- ment looking to the reform of the judi eary was begun several years ago. He is the principal exponent of judicial reform in Alabama.

WILLIAM O. BRADLEY, KENTUCKY SENATOR, DIES IN WASHINGTON
Distinguished Republican Leader Succumbs After Lingering Hlness-Was
 Once Page in House

Washington. May 22.--wflliam q, Bradley. United states senator from Kentucky. died here at es45 p. m., sf- ter a lingering illness aggravated by a fall.
 Senator William O. Bradley was one of the most distinguished republican lead CTS of Kentucky in his generation. An orator of unusual ability, for 40 years he had been prominent before the people of his state and the nation.
 Born in 1s47, he war only IA years of age when the war between the states broke out Twice he ran away from home to join the union army, only to be taken from the ranks py his father be- cause of his extreme youth. As a page of the lower house of the Kentucky leg sature he attracted such attention that at the age of IS a special act was pa assed by the legislature. enabling him to prac- tice law. if he proved his qualifications before an examining committee. He sat- isfed the committee or his qualifications and made law his profession.
 A Prominent Figure
  his death there scarcely was state con- vention of his party in which Senator Bradley was not prominent figure He was but little less prominent in the re- publican national conventions. For 2S years he was unanimously chosen a del 1 egate at large from Kentucky to the l national conventions. At the convention | in 1896 he was the choice of his state for President. and received l05 votes for vice president in the 1888 convention. 1 Three times he was chairman of his state delegation at the national conventions. | As one of the noted convention orators of his time, he seconded the nomination of 1 Grant in 1880 and that of Roosevelt in | 1904 In 1884 it was his oratory largely | that prevented the reduction of south i ern representation in the convention. 1 Faced with a strong democratic ma jority in his state MT. Bradley often suf- fered defeat for office Twice he was defeated for Congress and four times for United States senator after receiving the nomination of his party In 1887 he was defeated for governor. but reduced the 1 democratic ma iority of the preceding gu- bernatorial campaign from f1,00O to 170C0. 1 It was this showing that led to his 1 prominence as a vice presidential can didate the following year.
 Elected Governor
 1 In 1895 Senator Bradley was elected gov ernor of Kentucky by S912 majority. Vic tory again settled on his banner in 1908
 when a democratic legislature by eight votes. after deadlock. finally elected l him to the Senate. His term would have expired March 3. 1915. On many occasions Senator Bradley was 1 selected to deliver orations on behalf o
 his state. He spoke at the dedication of the Kentucky building at the Colum bian exposition in 1897, ;ile Jefferson statue in Louisville, the Kentucay monument a Chickamauga and the Kentucky stat, capitol. His last speech was delivered ir the Senate May S. when he spoke agans the repeal of the Panama canal toll ex emptiOn law.
