ecution and Put Them to Flight,

CAIRO, May ~ There were two
steamers bound from England to India
which passed through the Suez Canal
while the attack by the Turkish troops
was actually In progress. One Of these
carried n considerable number of mas
sengers, who were privileged to get a
more complete panoramic view Of a big
battle held than has probably been the
good fortune Of nonmilitary observers
In any other field of action They not
only saw fragments of the repulsed
turks at kintara. but also the advance
or British troops into the desert in
their wide thanking movement further
down the canal.
A letter from one of these passengers
says ", in part;
said notice was sent around that pas
sengers were TO keep on the port decks
As Turkish snipers were at work on tn
north side Of the canal.
For the first ten miles all the low
lying land had been flooded. but from
there onward we commenced to sec
troops cntrenched Every tenth mile
was a camp. and about every hundred
yards between were small trenches
containing about dozen Indians. Fur
Their UP the troops were mostly New
Zealanders and Australians.
About the thirtieth mile we passed
the Indian marine cruiser Hard,nge.
ana mere was our nFst evidence or there
>having been fight. for her funnel was
gone all the way down one side, and
the other side was riddled with bullets
and her bridge was gone. OF course
ships in the canal pass within a few
feet of each other. so could see
everything. Her ca plain and pilot, who
were on the bridge at the time, were
killed. and about sixteen others were
wounded
From this time on We passed sew
eral warships, and troops were on both
sides Of the canal We amused our
selves by throwing tins of cigarettes
out TO them. We cleared all the Gig
arettes from the bar.
All this time we were going at eight
miles an hour, which is three miles

moro than the speed limit. 80 it was
evident that they wanted to get US
through the canal as quickly as pos
sible.
AT the forticth mile the men In the
trenches told us that they had been en-
gagged with the enemy on the previous
day. and that the Turks were now
about eight miles off. went up on
the deck and saw troops in the dis
lance, but could not say whether they
we're Turks or not. From the forty
second mile the banks Of the canal are
nigh and could not see any great dis
lance. except between occasional gaps.
But ut the forty-sixth mile | saw
dead horse, half on the bank and
half In the water, and a little further
dead camel. Then the excitement
began. First one dead Turk was seen.
then two. then batch Of seven or
eight, and at the forty-seventh mile
crowd of them. with number OF
broken small boats. full OF dead simply
smashed to pieces. some hanging over
the side with. leg gone. others with
out an arm, and some you could not
recognize as men at all. Just hero
the banks are quite high, but they
slope down to the water. and on these
Of positions. Some I'D fallen with
their heads and shoulders just In tho
water. I climbed up in the rigging to
see what was over the top of the bank,
and there saw almost hundreds.
1T appeared that the Turks were
seen coming. and the warships IN the
canal allowed them 10 throw a pom
toon across. When they were all
gathered at this spot the warships
let fy. They had to retire after losing
several OF. their guns. This place was
Kintara. a few miles from the Bitter
Lakes. The battle occurred on the
previous day.
'On arrival at the lakes we anchored
tor the night with all lights out and
among about thirty other ships.
Fighting was going on all night
little further up the canal, and we
thought we should be held up in the
lakes. but we started of the next
morning with our bridge and deck pro-
tected by sand bags.
From here to Suez We passed camp
after camp Of soldiers. Most of them
had been in action. The Turks were
about eight miles away.
"A little further on we heard the
guns and saw the British troops NOV
ing off to the attack. The battle was
the smoke from the guns through my
glas There were some low sand
mills about FIVE miles away and I
could see men on this ridge. The
British had several thousand men and
six guns marching over the nat ground
for this ridge.
II don't suppose many people have
had or Will have the chance that We
had TO go straight through the middle
OF battlefield before they have even
had chance TO bury the dead.

WORTHY INSTITUTION WOMAN'S REST ROOM
City Commission Inclined to Regard
 1t With Favor

Mrs. J. l.. E. Alexander represent ing the Woman's Club and Mrs. II. A. Guild president of the Madison Improvement club and representing the district federation appeared be- fore the city commission yesterday in the matter of securing the con- struction of a rest room for ladies. This subject had been first presented to the board of supervisors but the supervisors said that the appropria- tion for making repairs about the court house would be exhausted in the work already under way
 The commission gave the ladies considerable encouragement and the matter was referred to committee which will probably return favor able report It is the desire of the ladies that the rest room be com modious though not ornate and ex- penSive, to meet the needs of women with small children from the coun- try. who come to town to trade or on other business. II is proposed that there shall he a retiring room and that the services of an attendant shall be always available. with whom small children may be left in the absence of their mothers.
 Such an institution as this is badly needed. T. is something that the city owes to the women from the country and, beside. it will be avail able for women from the more re- mote residential districts of the city.

STATE MUST SHOW CAUSE
BECKER CASE GETS HEARING
IN ONE COURT.
New York Supreme Justice phlbir's
Action May Bring Stay Of
Execution.

New York. y. Y.--Supreme Court
Justice Philbin issued an order for
the state to show cause why a new
trial should not be granted Charles
Becker former police lieutenant sen
fenced to die in the electric chair
July IS for conspiracy in the murder
OF gambler Herman Kosenthnl.
This order was issued following the
fling Of afidavits by Becker's attor'
neys, alleging the discovery Of new
and important evidence tending to es.
tahlish Becker's innocence. These ar
fdavits contained statements from
East Side gamblers who are said to
have contributed to a fund Of $4,000
TO induce Rosenthal to leave New
York. The offer WAS rejected by Ro'
senthal and a few hours later he was
shot to death.
The State is expected to act imme-
diately upon the courts order as only
three court days now intervene before
the date set for Pecker's eleCtrpcu-
ton. Unless the State appears and
shows cause before that time the
courts order probably would auto
matically act as a stay OF execution.
