Cut, While Levi Braswell
Was Wounded
BOTH MEN ARE IN
A SERIOUS STATE
Family Troubles Are Un-
derstood to Have Been
at Bottom of Toruble

Ex-Deputy Sheriff Greene was bad
~ cut, and Levi Braswell, a grocery
man, was seriously hurt, early last
night in an encounter which took
place near the store Of Braswell, in
the vicinity of the Jewish cemetery,
and up to late hour last night it
could not be determined by attending
physicians whether either of the men
had been fatally wounded Green's
injuries, however, were regarded the
most serious, In fact his removal
would rot r. permitted until gaping
knife wounds on various parts of his
body were stitched. This was done,
and he will h cared for at the Pen
sacola hospit5i, as he is said to have
been in a precarious condition.
BraswelI, II was reported by the
officers who made the investigation,
was wounded by the butt Of a revolt
yer, with blows on the head
From what could be learned, and
from the statements of witnesses to
officers, the men met to settle some
old scores, in which, was claimed,
family troubles played big part.
Green, it was claimed by parties who
seemed to know, seems to have been
the aggressor, and is said to have at
tackled Braswell, when the latter
whipped out knife and began de-
Tending himself after few words
had been passed. The shot or shots
were fred, it was alleged, after the
knife had been brought into play. At
least that is the claim of friends,
which was made to the sheriff.
Sheriff Ellis lost no time in going
to the scene, and effected the arrests
Of both men.
Braswell reached the county jail
in custody of the sheriff shortly after
10 o'clock.

BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Peabody, Mass. Oct. 29.-In the cav
ity within the blackened shell of which
yesterday morning was st. Johns
Parochial school, men searched today
for evidence as to the cause of the
fire which cost the lives of twenty-one
girls. The ruins also were examined
carefully for more victims. Early to-
day five bodies remained unidentified
Five girls were reported missing by
their families. Owing to the condi-
ton of the unclaimed bodies, positive
Identification probably will be impos-
sible.
The search for possible additional
bodies was directed by Chief of Po-
lice Grady, while inspectors of the
state police conducted the investiga-
ton into the cause Of the fire.
The only, fact substantiated was
that the flames originated in a-small
store room in the basement, which
was locked.
1t was customary to place waste
paper and sweepings in wooden bar
rels in the store room. According to
the sisters of the Order of Norte
Dame who were in charge of the
school nothing else was there. At one
end of the room there was a gas Jet
This room was closely examined to-
day for evidence showing how the
fire started.
Plans for a public funeral for the
little ones were discussed today and
the arrangements were placed in the
hands of Rev. Nicholas J. Murphy
pastor of st. Johns church.
Acting Chief Neal of the state po,
lice announced that no one had beer
found criminally responsible for the
fire. He said that while the building
was badly constructed, it compiled
withthe essential requirements of the
law.

Busy on High Seas.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Roanoke, Va, Oct. 29.-That the
small power boat Eclipse, in which
six warrant officers from one of the
German cruisers interned at Norfolk
made their escape was sent to the
bottom with all on board is the in
formation brought here by two young
women who landed in New York from
the Bermudian Thursday morning, af-
ter a cruise to Bermuda.
The young women, Misses Estelle
and Clemmie White, of Roanoke,
sailed from New York Wednesday,
October 20, about noon. About five
o'clock the same afternoon, their
vessel was spoken by the Australian
cruiser Sydney, which approached
within megaphoning distance. Off
GERS of the Sydney put off in small
boats and boarded the liner.
1t is said not to have been any secret
on the Bermudian that the Sydney
reported having sunk the power yacht
the day before with all on board.
Inquiry was made of the Bermudian's
officers as to whether the vessel car
ried any Germans and the explana-
ton was made that the stop had been
made so that notice could be given
that there would be no further need
to watch for the missing German
officers.
The Misses White are positive in
their Identification Of the Sydney and
said its presence created intense in
terest after it was identified as the
famous cruiser that ran the Emden
to earth.

they just captured. The BuIgarians
are heading toward Zaiecar, but it is
long distance and the Serbian de-
