AUDAC|OUS IS NOT
SUNK, IS REPORT,
BUT IN DRYDOCK
Message Says Superdread-
nought Is Being Repaired
After Disaster.

| NEW YORK, Nov 16-Whether
the British superdreadnought Auda-
]+cious is now atthe bottom of the sea
or Is being repaired by the British
admiralty and may again see service
is now the only mystery connected
with the reports OF the vessel of the
first line Of EngIand's naval defense
falling victim to German mine or
torpedo in the North sea.
James r. Beams. bandmaster on
the liner Olympic. which rescued the
crew of the Audacious, told the full
story of the disaster upon arriving
here on the American liner New
York He said the Audacious was
blown up by the British cruiser Liv-
erpool that her wreck might not in
terfere with traffic. A cable received
from London today. however. indi-
Gates that this may be a mistaken
version of the disaster to the dread
nought.
+ The story of Bandmaster Beams
was learned only after it had been
impressed upon him that the main
facts of the accident to the Audacio'Is
were known in this country. He had
been pledged 10 secrecy. as had lll
members of the Olympic's crew.
A surgeon of the liner Baltic, who
had been transferred from the Olym-
pic, denied late Saturday that the
Olympic had seen or heard of the
Audacious on the trip to Belfast dur
ing which the rescue of the dread
nought's crew was made.
Beams said the Audacious was
sighted October 81 off the Irish coast.
The sea was then washing over her
quarterback. The cruiser Liverpool
was near and had circled ahead To
make sure there We're not other mines
in the vicinity. Fourteen lifeboats
were swung over from the Olympic.
A heavy sea was running and a boat
was seen to be swung over from the
side of the dreadnought. 1t capsized
almost Immediately. -Four of the men
were picked up by one of the Olym-
pics boats The fifth man, a petty
officer, was drowned. according to
Beams.
ut required half-hour for the
boats to reach the Audacious," said
Beams, lowing TO the rough sea. The
Oiympies boats brought go men to
our ship"
Beams then told of the Intellectual
efforts to tow the Auoacious. lie
said a member of the Audacious' $
crew told him that when first hit
they believed the battleship mad been
torpedoed. 1t was discovered, how
ever. that the dreadnought had hit a
mine laid by German vessel which
had been seen in that vicinity flying
the Norwegian flag.
Hugh Griffiths. a musician on the
Olympic. was authority for the state
ment that the Audacious had been
blown up. He said he was on deck
about o'clock when there was loud
explosion and bright glare lighted
the sea. Later. he said. men who
were brought on board said the Au-
dacious had been blown up at the
order of wireless instructions re-
ceived from the admiralty. Griffiths
said these men were brought to the
Olympic about midnight. No other
story, however. has mentioned orders
being brought to the Olympic after
she left the scene, and, apparently,
no one on the Olympic actually saw
the Audacious sink. All stories have
agreed. however, that there was an
explosion of some sort.

TRENTON, Nov. 16.-The joint ap-

probe into the affairs of the State

Questioned as to the course to he

I'VE will confine our work today to

complete investigation of the meth

its expenditures of its appropriation

today we win probably confne the

MADISON SQUARE GARDEN,
New York, Nov 16.-The first real
jam" in the 1914 six-day race here
was started at 1850 o'clock today by
Jimmy Moran, and after fourteen
minutes of the hardest kind of riding
four of the seventeen teams left in
the race were one or more laps behind
the leaders. The teams that fell be-
hind during the jam" were Cavanagh
and Piercey, Dupuy and Seres, Ma
donna and Linart and Kopsky and
Hansen. The Jam was halted by a
spill, in which several of the riders
went down. The Kopsky- Hansen COM
bination was three laps behind the
leaders at the close of the sprint,
while lSeres and Dupuy lost two. Cav
anagh and Piercey and Linart and
Madonna lost one lap.
The riders had been going along
at an even gait when Moran broke
away The sprint had not gone very
far when 1t was seen that the Boston
rider meant business. and there was
hurry call from the trainers for
partners. All the riders were on
the track at one time or other, and
during the jam nine teams, in
cluding Fogler and Hill and CLARK
and Root, were fined SO for poor
pick-ups.
The riding of Reggie Mcnamara,
the Australian partner of Moran,
stood out prominently throughout the
sprint, and he was easily the best
rider on the track. His great speed
was responsible for the tapping OF
the teams For time it looked as
though the Clark Root combination
would be Tapped, for when the Jam"
was stopped by the spill. the pair
were half lap behind the leading
riders. af.

COTTON EXCHANGE
IS REOPENED FOR
UNLIMITED TRADE
New York's Centre, Closed
Since July 81, Resumes
6usiness-Seiiing Brisk.

NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-The New
York Cotton areepened for
unrestricted trading at 10 o'clock tslis
morning. 1t had been closed since
July 81. when the market went into
convulsions and three firms failed
through the decentralization created
by impending war in Europe.
The floor of the exchange was
thronged with brokers when the
gong sounded today. During the first
few minutes trading was exceedingly
brisk and somewhat nervous. There
was some little confusion because of
,unfamiliarity with the new style con-
tract and. the new rules imposed on
the market by the operation of the
so-ca1led cotton futures law.
Early trading was confined almost
entirely to December cotton, sold on
old style contract. The market
opened with 7.45 cents and dropped
quickly to TAO. A low level of 7.S9
was reached in the first half hour.
The market then grew steady and
the nervous tone departed.
At the end of the first half hour,
trading appeared to be normal and
the number of brokers on the floor
had dwindled to the usual size.
Prices were approximately three
cents below what they were when
the exchange closed on July 81. jan
uary sold at .7.75 to 7.5S; March at
7.s5 TO. 7.SS: May at $40 to S.12, and
October at $40 TO $50.
Wall street brokers, inactive be-
cause of the darkened stock ex-
change, were interested spectators at
the opening. A sprinkling of other
spectators, friends and families of
cotton brokers, were in the gallery.
A general laugh, punctuated by
boots. greeted the reading of letter
of CONGRATULATIONS from members of
the Liverpool Cotton Association. The
letter was read from the rostrum
shortly after the opening gong
sounded.
