CUNARD LINE, TO BRING
AMERICAN DEAD HOME
When and What Vessel Not Stated
in Cablegram Received
in New York.

NEW YORK, May 12.-The Lusi'
tania's American dead, SO far as identi-
fed, now lying at Queenstown and
other towns in Ireland will be brought
to New York. according to a cable
gram received here today by the
Cunard line from Liverpool. The mes
sage said the company would trans
port the bodies across the sea, but
when and by what vessel they would
be brought was not stated.
A second cablegram confirmed the
announcement, made in London yester-
day, of the cancellation of the Maure-
tania's sailing from Liverpool. orig
inally set for May 29. This, the lines
officials said, would necessitate ar
ranging a new summer schedule of
sailings.
The steamship Mauretania recently
had been doing duty as an auxiliary
cruiser in the British navy, and it also
has been reported that she had been
used as transport for troops. 1t has
been the intention of the Cunard line
to have the vessel resume her regular
passenger service between New York
and Liverpool at the end of the present
month, when she was to begin a fort
nightly service across the Atlantic, al
ternating with the Lusitania.

there is no man in Georgia who more
earnestly favors general improve
ment in the prison system of the

Mr.. Dorsey is not only considered
by his colleagues as a conservative
and safe man, but he is known to
have at heart the interest of the
prison system. He also has the
friendship and support of the mem
bers of the state prison commission
who are confidently expecting him
to greatly aid them in working out
number of improvements and re-
forms at the state prison farm near
Milledgeville.
Mr.. Dorsey announced Wednesday
that his committee would make it's
inspection of the prison farm and re-
formatory some time next week. 1--WE
are going to vary the custom of the
past said Mr.. Dorsey Heretofore
the committee has made this inspec-
ton trip between sessions of the
Legislature. By investigating con-
ditiOns now and determining upon
the Improvements and reforms to be
instituted my committee can make
it's recommendations to the legisla-
ture while it is still in session which
will afford an opportunity to insti-
tute the needed changes and facili-
ties without undue delay"
