Try Telegraph 10 The Trihune.l

Msckinsc Island, Mich, Aug. 27.-"I'm
going to marry Al Davis"
These words are said to have been
snapped from the lips of Miss Eugenia
Kelly, the young 100000 heiress and
dancer who has been brought here by
her mother, after she had to resort to
the New York courts to induce the
daughter to relinquish her enthusiasm
for Gotham's dancing cafes.
The speech sscribed to Miss Kelly is
taken by the gossips of Mackinac as
the explanation for the increased in
terest in life which she seems to take
of late. When she first came to Mack
mac she seemed gracefully and prettily
bored. She danced and she rode, but
not with zest.
Then there came to one of the boarding
houses a trim and graceful young man
with neatly parted hair. 1t was noted
that some men called him AL and others
called him Davis. And AL was a rider,
too. He would ride off alone around
the romantic roads of the island, and
Eugenia Kelly would ride off alone
around the romantic roads of the ISL
and.
Al Davis stayed at Mackinac and rode
about for some days, then took ship
and sailed away-and it wes after that
that Miss Kelly was credited with snap
ping out, "I'm going to marry Al
Davis

U. S. Will Depend on Own
Officials for Reports
of Disaster.
NO WARNING SENT liner
No News Yet Received from
Two Americans Still
Missing.
lBy Associated Press

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-The Of
fetal details upon which President
Wilson will decide whether the sink
ing Of the White Star liner Arabic
was an act deliberately unfriendly to
the United States we're still lacking to.
day and meanwhile the president and
other administration officials while
realizing fully the gravity of the new
situation between the United States
and Germany were keeping their
minds open.
Only two official dispatches have
been received and they gave fruits OF
no Independent Investigation, merely
transmitting the reports OF the White
Star line. The United States will de-
eide its course upon reports OF own
officials.
Ambassador Page forwarded a
White Star report that the ship was
torpedoed without warning and Vice
Consul Thompson at Queenstown
made similar report. Neither &C
counted for Mrs. Josephine F, Bru-
guiere nor Dr. E. Woods, the two
Americans still missing.
While officials here are keeping
their minds open during the hours
which will be required for assem-
bling Official evidence they are think
ing about these points:
Whether any Americans have been
lost and whether the Arabic actually
was torpedoed without warning.
Whether the Arabic by having
been conveyed on the beginning of her
voyage had under international law
partaken of the character of her con-
voy and waved her rights as non
combatant.
Whether by proceeding 10 the Vi
cinity OF the steamer DunSley, which
had just previously been torpedoed,
the Arabic'S commander introduced
any qualifying circumstances by vio-
lating the rule of the British admiralty
which forbids one torpedoed ship TO
risk itself by attempting to assist an
other"

LONDON. Aug. 20.-The best infoE-
nation now available indicates that
a score or more persons lost lives IN
the sinking Of the White Star liner.
Arabic by German submarine yesterN
day morning of the south coast Of
Ireland
Thus far ii has not been determined
definitely whether any 7s4nertIrasis are
among the dead. DR.. Edmund Il.
Wood. OF Janesville. Wis, and mrs.
josephine L. Bruguiere, an American
who had lived in Europe for sous
years. are missing.
The White Star line announced To-
day that all but eight of the passeas
gers had been landed at Queenstown.
Four Of these we're said to be Ameri-
cans. according to information cabsed
to Washington by Lewis C. Thompson,
American Consul at Queenstown.
However. Or. Wood and Mrs. Brug-
uere are the only missing Americans.
The other two, James Houlihan ,0t
Philadelphia. and Thomas Elmore, OF
New York. were reported by Mr..
Thompson to have been saved.
In all about 400 OF 423 persons on
board the Arabic have been accounted
for. The fate of the others Is still In
doubt, but as the hours lengthen since
the Arabic met with swift destruction,
hopes that the others may have been
saved are fading.
The torpedoing Of the Arabic stir
ed England from end to end, although
on account Of the comparatively small
loss OF life the public feeling does mot
show signs OF running as high as IN
the days following the sinking Of the
LuSitania.
That such large proportion Of the
passengers and crew should have been
saved in the short time available for
work or rescue is regarded as better
fortune than might have been expect
ed under the circumstances. Appar-
entity it was due to the coOness and
courage of the officers and crew,
from Captain Finch, who remained at
his post. until just before the Arabic
took her final plunge, down to the
firemen who faced certain death TO
perform their duties.
In Queenstown everything possible
was done tdoay to assist the survivors,
many OF whom were without clothes
or money. AS in the case Of the Llei-
tania disaster. the citizens Of Queens
town came TO the assistance Of the
sufferers and none went without cloth
ing, food or shelter. A number Of sur
viyors are suffering from minor 5i1e
iurles, but so far as is known none
are in serious condition.
