LEAKING BOAT BORE CREW OF
FORMIDABLE IN HURRICANE
Seventy Saved In Sea Disaster Sang
"Tipperary" as Waves Rolled High.

The fishing smack Providence pick
survivors from the battleship Formid
able, when that warship was blown
up in the English channel on New
Years day About 0 o'clock on that
morning the deck watch of the Provi
dence noticed a large boat cutter with
an oar hoisted and scarf attached
to it, Most of the boat was oDscured
behind the tremendous waves. but
although the hurricane was ut its
height the fishermen decided to make
an attempt at rescue.
They shook out the reef in the
mainsail and set storm jib. This
took some time. and the cutter had
drifted considerable distance and
was completely hidden from view in
the torrents of rain. The third hand.
however. climbed into the rigging and
observed the cutter still floating. 1t
was then decided to undertake the
very serious maneuver Of jibbing the
ship.
The men tried three times unsuc-
cessfully. but at the fourth attempt
they succeeded in getting rope to the
cutter. When she was near enough
the naval men jumped aboard the
trawler. They had to be very careful.
for the seas at times were breaking
some thirty feet high.
They noticed that clothing was pro-
truding from hole in the. boats side
and subsequently discovered this was
a pair of trousers used to stop hole
The cutter was full of water. and as
It would have been dangerous to tow
her she was cut adrift The rescued
men were in a really pitiable plight
They had been in the open boat in the
hurricane for several hours, and some
had no trousers. Sixty Of them were
without boots. They had taken of
their boots and used them for bailing
purposes In order to keep the cutter
af'oat.
One of the survivors said that as
soon as the boat got away some of the
men started to sing "Tipperary." but
they had only finished one verse when
u huge wave broke over them. al
most swamping the boat and putting
an end to their song.

yesterday that if the Springfield troll

ST0vER is GUILTY
OF NUMBERING
GARDNERS
Negro Killed Two North Adams
Men In Florida
TRIAL TOOK ONLY ONE DAY
Murderer Sentenced to Death But
Date of His Hanging viii Be
Fixed by Governor.

Palatka, Fla, April 29-Clyde Stoy
er, the self-confessed Negro murder
er of Horace S. Gardner OF Spring
field, Mass. and his brother. Alonzc
Gardner Of North Adams. Mass. was
found guilty late this afternoon and
sentenced TO be hanged for the crime
but not until he had taken the stand
and given evidence in his own be
half. This created d sensation, es-
pecially when all women in the room
were asked to leave.
At IL o'clock the first witness for
the defense was called and thereafter
all went smoothly. the same evidence
being given as i'll the preliminary
examination. with the exception of
the two Jacksonville detectives who
swore to Stoyer's confession. This
confession was the cause of much
wrangling and objections. the main
issue turning on whether the prison
er had been properly warned as to
pleading guilty. All objections. how
ever were overruled by the Judge.
When Slower took the stand, the
court was flls5d by the curious, who
had gone to the courtroom early in
the morning. So great was the crowd
when court opened that the judge or
dered that no one else be allowed IL
The sensation was made when the
murderer in examination by his
counsel. said that he had committed
the double killing because. of the fear
of the two white men who threatened
to kill him, he said, if he did not
agree TO commit an unnatural crime
with them. These threats continued,
he said, until his fear got the better
of him, and, after one of theset hreats
seeing an opportunity he kille done
and then the other.
During the evidence, Henry Gard
ner, brother of the murdered men,
shouted: ITS a damned lie," and
then made a rush for the murderer,
but the sheriff and others restrained
him. His lawyers in their address TO
the jury dwelt on the Negros evi-
dence and asked for recommendation
their argument to shreds and stated
that this was adding insult to injury.
Slower during the trial sat with
bowed head, which was quite differ
ent from his braggadacio attitude
mainland hitherto. When the jury
brought in the verdict of murder in
the first degree Stover was asked by
the Judge if he had anything to say.
He made an effort to speak, but could
not utter syllable. The governor
will set a date for the hanging.

PROBABLY FATAL EXPLOSION
Rutland Child viii Die, Father
Badly Hurt.

Rutland April 29-An explosion of
dynamite caps which were stored
away under the stairway at the home
Of Louis Ricci, West steet, caused.
probable fatal injuries to Alfred
Mainolfi, six-year-old son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Mainolfi, and very seri-
Gus injuries to the lads father this
evening. The youngster, who was
watching his father at work changing
some treads on the stairway leading
from the first to the second floor.
was seated on the third or fourth
step when the explosion occurred
and the force of the caps blew his
left hand entirely off. fractured his
left leg near the hip, seriously cut
his right leg and he was thrown a
considerable distance by the impact,
tumbling out of the door on to a
small stoop in front of the Ricci
home. At the Rutland hospital to-
night it was said he could not recov-
er.
Mr. Mainolfi was in the act of re-
moving the bottom step and as near
as can be learned he was prying off
the piece of wood. using a chisel and
hammer. Whether he struck the
box OF caps or whether the concus-
sion was enough to explode one caus-
ing the discharge of the others will
never be known.
