GRAIN CARRYING
STEAMER SUNK
GOES DOWN ALMOST WITHOUT
WARNING-ALL OF CREW IS
SAVED.

Duluth, Minn., Sept. 15.-The steam
er Onoko, belonging to the Steinbren-
ner interests of Cleveland, Ohio, and
loaded with 100000 bushels of wheat
consigned to Buffalo by the Capitol
Elevator Co., sunk yesterday after
noon while off Knife Island, about IA
miles out of Duluth, almost without a
moments warning. None of the crew
was lost.
Orders Boats Off.
When it was seen that the steamer
was sinking, Captain W. R. Dunn or
dered the boats out and the crew left
the ship. They were picked up short
ly after by the Standard Oil steamer
Renown and were brought back to
Duluth, reaching here about 5:45 p.
m. Captain Dunn reported to G. A.
Tomlinson, agent of the Onoko at this
point, as follows:
eve have no way of knowing what
happened. The lake was smooth and
we had no indication of anything be-
ing wrong until off Knife Island. We
We're about nine miles out, in the reg
ular course, when the engineer came
forward and reported to me that the
ship was leaking under the engines
Blythe time I got back there the wa
ter was squirting in and in few min
utes stopped the engines. There wa
no question that the ship was doom
ed and I ordered out the boats. A few
moments after we got clear the Onok'
went down. The crew was in no dan
ger, but we were glad to see the oi
steamer"
The value of the boat is undeter
mined, but in her day she was tn
pride Of the lakes. She was launche
in 1882 and was the first of the larg
iron steamers on the Great Lakes
She was 286 feet long, 80 feet beam
capacity 5000 tons, and gross tonnag
2,164.

SEVEN MEN
CREMATED

FORMED THE THRESHING GANG
AND WERE SLEEPING IN NOW.
REMAINS NOT YET LOCATED IN
RUINS OF BUILDING.

Brandon, Lam, Sept. 14.-Seven
men are believed to have been burned
to death in a fire which occurred at
the farm of Alf. Magee, four miles
northwest of Kemnay, late last night.
About ten o'clock the occupants Of
the farmhouse were awakened by the
noise of horses kicking in the stable,
and on getting up found the big barn,
forty by sixty feet in flames. Every
effort was made to combat the flames
but the building had gone too far, the
hay and grain in it having got a firm
hold. Ten head of horses and a team
!. of mules were also cremated.
It is said that the men, whose names
have not been ascertained, had beer

Massachusetts, like Wisconsin and

1t has gone through the costly NUS

has seen a swarm of hustlers circulat-

A Story OF Irish ChivaIry.

One of my wounded friends was en-
thuslastlc over one feat which he re-.
garded rs the noblest Of the war. In
the beginning Of that terrible retreat
from Mons, which the genius OF Sir
John French alone saved from being an
absolute disaster, there came a time
when section OF the Irish Guards
were told to hold the road at all costs.
Most OF the officers had been killed, or
else were so badly wounded that they
could no longer lead, and the charge
fell on gray haired sergeant major,
who swiftly seized q corner shop com
manding two roads as an ideal place to
hold up the Prussians until our rear
guard was in safety.
AS he was about to place his two ma
chine guns woman stopped him and
said, "Hou cannot stay here, sergeant
There IS a woman in labor in room
above" Good heavens" he answered.
And at such a time! Now, then,
ma'am,' he continued with ironical
good humor, cant you tell the lady to
hurry up, as she's keeping an army
waitingY How long will she be?" The
reply was about half an hour"
The sergeant told of ten OF his men
with stretchers and blankets TO wait
until the child was born, then to convey
1t and its mother into safety, after that
TO return TO their section. In the
meantime he advanced an eighth OF a
mile and fortified y weaker spot AS
well as he could, scoliing his men the
while and telling then not to make too
much noise, else they would alarm the
baby" And so, in place which
left them exposed 10 the full danger of
the Prussan attack, these lrishmen
fought until every man was either xiii.
ed, wounded or made prisoner, rather
than disturb a woman 10 the crucial
hour OF maternity.

There is clamor in certain circles
just now for higher tariff on aniline
dyes. Give us tariff, is the cry, and
what at present is an infant industry
will become a giant.
But why the necessity OF high tar
if on aniline dyes?
The object Of II tariff as protection to
young industries is to shut out foreign
competition. The war has done that
already as completely as even prohib-
tive tariff could do, II the dye indus
try cannot thrive now in the United
States it could not do SO under any tar
if that could be piled MP around it.
But suppose that we should heed this
cry for higher tariff on dyes, would 1t
not be fair TO let the protectionists
among themselves settle the height2
The Republicans used to let particu-
lar favorite industries fix their own
let certain industries fix the tariff on
other industries. Thus the present
tariff OF 80 per cent. on anlline dyes,
which would seem high enough to pro-
tect any infant which has the vitality
of development in it, was not made
higher il the days Of the PAYNE AID
rich tariff artists because nearly a
score of large cotton mills, with COM
Portable protective duties Of their own,
arose in protest against any higher du-
ty on aniline dyes, on the ground that
it would increase the cost OF produc-
ton and raise prices to consumers.
Your protectionist is often pretty
good tariff reformer when it comes to
reforming tariffs for other protection

1t is instructive to take up this point
in connection with the statements
made in the British Parliament by
Premier Asqulth and Lord Kitchener
in regard to the size and utilization OF
the army of the United Kingdom.
The head of the British government
told the House of Commons that enlist
ments in the army had almost reached
100000. Earl Kitchener informed
the House of Lords that 900, 900 more
men had been sent to extend and
strengthen General French's lines in
France and Flanders. In view OF other
official statements made several weeks
ago, this indicates that England has
about 10000 soldiers in France and
Belgium.
Since the enlistnents have been
nearly 100000 it is clear that the to-
tai strength OF the British army must
have exceeded that great number.
The regular army, as it was when the
war began, and the troops drawn from
India certainly more than make up
whatever difference there may be be-
tween the enlistments and the three
million mark.
Where are these millions? 1t is Of
Gcially stated that only 10000, or
about that number, are in the field in
France and Flanders. Possibly 100000
NAV be at the Dardanelles, in Egypt
or on duty in other places outside of
the British isles The British losses
have been about 100000 according to
detailed official reports made in Parlia-
ment, but fully 100, 900 Of the wounded
must have recovered and returned to
the colors.
Here is possible total OF not more
than l,2j0,000 accounted for out OF
100000 1t may be that 10000 are
in such elementary stages OF training
and preparation that they could not be
utilized in any campaign, as yet. The
remaining million must be kept in the
British Isles,
But why? Solely and clearly be-
cause Germany has great and formid-
able navy. The German dreadnaughts,
the older German battleships and the
German cruisers may fairly be credited
with tying up 100000 men.
The British government is never
quite sure that the German fleets
might not gain at least a temporary
advantage in a naval battle fought I'M
der the uncertain conditions Of fog,
mist and darkness. 1t is never able to
forget that even one or two days OF
ascendency on the North sea might
suffice to cover the landing of power
full German army in England. Hence
the great British armies held in readi-
ness to meet such an attack.-Cleveland
