and strength against attack will take
her place as the leader of the navles

Company Unable to Communicate
With Vessel by Wireless, Except
Through Admiralty.

LONDON. June is. 1886 pm.-The
inquiry into the sinking Of the steam
snip Lusitania was resumed today with
the examination of Alfred A Booth
chairman Of the board of the Cunard
steamship Company. The attorney gen
eral, Sir Edward Carson, asked Mr.
bootn why it was that the Lusitania
was economizing by using only nine
teen OF her twenty-five boilers at the
Tune she was torpedoed
so 1ar as submarines are concerned
there Is no difference between q and
z4.o Knots" Mr.. Booth replied.
Mr.. Carson then asked whether there
was any difference between eighteen
Knots. the speed at which the Lusitania
was proceeding when attacked. and
tWenty-one knots. Mr.. Booth replied
That no steamer making moro than
fourteen knots was known to have
oeen struck by torpedo from sub
marine until the Lusitania was hit.
Ihe witness said the Cunard company
was unable to communicate with the
vessei by wireless except through the
admiralty and therefore had given no
General instructions given previously
covered the closing Of the watertight
compartments. the swinging out of
Doats on entering the danger zone, and
an order not to slow down to take on a
pilot or to lie to off Liverpool for the
tide. 1t was left to Capt. Turner's dis
cretion to arrange the time of the ves-
seIs arrival. He said that all he knew
relative to warnings issued to intend
ing passengers was what he had read
in English newspapers, having received
no dispatch on this subject from the
New York Office of the company.

Discretion Given to Capt. Turner.

Mr.. Booth was cross examined by an
attorney representing survivors as to
whether the company took any steps
to prevent the Lusitania from doing
what she did do: namely, entering the
war zone on schedule"
The witness replied he did not know
what schedule time meant. but Capt.
Turner had been given entire discre-
ton.
Mr. Booth said he received no word
from Capt. Turner during the voyage.
The morning OF the day the Lusitania
was torpedoed the Cunard company
asked the admiralty to communicate e
with the ship concerning threats
against 1t.
The attorney for the survivors asked
Mr. Booth why he had stated the Lusi-
tania was being run for reasons of
economy, merely to pay expenses
The witness said the bookings of first
and second class passengers were near
ly normal. but that the number of
storage passengers was only one
third the normal, which occasioned a
loss.

No Device to Detect Submarines,

Donald MacMaster, representing the
Canadian government, asked Mr..
Booth whether there had been installed
on the Lusitania an apparatus for
the detection of submarines. The wit
ness responded he had no knowledge
Of any workable device of this sort.
Mr.. MaoMaster then asked whether
by calling out both watches all the
boilers could have been worked, as it
was admitted the Lusitania had a suf-
flcient supply Of coal. Baron Mersey,
president OF the court of inquiry, in
terrupted: What difference would the
speed make" He pointed out that the
testimony thus far taken indicated that
speed of eighteen knots might have
been regarded as ample to escape a
submarine. Mr.. Booth said no in
structions had been sent to the Lusi-
tania to run at full speed through the
danger zone. He also said that on ac-
count of the war there were many
poorly trained men in the crew.
The attorney for the stewards Union
asked whether there were Germans
working on the Cunard dock in New
York. Mr.. Booth replied that perhaps
or Americans of
German descent were employed there
The attorney then asked whether it
would have been possible for a spy to
board the Lusitania for the purpose
Of signaling submarines. Mr.. Booth
answered that he was not prepared
to say this would have been Impossible.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORS
Hold Annual Convention at Beres
College Three Days Last Week

A large delegation of members of
the Christian Endeavor societies of
Stanford attended the 25th annual
convention of the Christian Endeavor
Union at Berea last week. The con
vention was held three days on May
Z, 8 and 9 in the auditorium of Der
ca Collge. Among those who went
from here were Mrs. Maggie Cover
Miss Ida Judd. Miss Annie Mckinney
Miss Esther Burch and James Tribble
Berea is perhaps the most idea
place for this convention that the En-.
deavors have had because of its nat
ural beauty and the interest that cen
tiers around the school, which has 9
national reputation on account of the
work done among the mountain peo
Pile of the south.
DR.. Frost. president of the college
made a thrilling talk on the subject
of the school. Cassius Clay was the
first who had thought of this school
John Fee gave the name to Berea and
established the Union church in which
10 denominations are represented and
all work together in perfect harmony,
Rogers was the first head of the
school.
Until 1904 negroes and whites
were both admitted, but at this time
the legislature forbade the colored
and white attending the same school.
So President Frost and his wife sue
ceeded in raising 100000 and estab-
lished a school at Lincoln Ridge, near
Shelbyville. for the negroes, where
they have the same advantages as at
Berea.
Berea College is largely endowed,
thus making it possible for the very
poor to enter Many who come from
the mountains to this school have had
no opportunities and some times en-
ter the primary grades after they are
out of their teens, but their progress
is much more rapid than the younger
people. As has often been said, these
people represent the very best blood,
DR.. Frost. himself, traced four hun
bred and eighty families, descend
ants from revolutionary soldiers,
which represented almost the entire
population of the mountains at that
time. The school has a faculty of
sixty with almost that number of
training teachers. and an attendance
of more than 400. Many are turn
ed away every year because they can
not be accommodated. 100000 is
expended yearly for the support of
the school. They have a splendid
Carnegie Library with $4,000 vol
umes. Every line of work is taught
here and every possible advantage is
given to the students.
There were between three and four
hundred delegates at the convention.
A splendid program was carried out,
Rev. Homer Carpenter made an ex-
cellent president and he, as well as
all other officers were reelected.
Rev. VIM. Hopper made a fine adj
dress on "The Purpose of the Chris
tian Endeavor," and Rev. Fortune,
of Lexington, was most interesting.
The field secretaries. Karl Lehman
and Chas. Evans made helpful talks
on Christian Endeavor work.

parting was TO come. IL was getting
on toward eleven o'clock and the
good-byes were said. Every hand
gave Col Weatherford hearty shake
and kind words and good wishes were
his portion. His fiftieth birthday had
been duly celebrated and the occasion
long looked forward to was at an end.
The Interior journal, which has
ever priced his friendship. joins his
host Of friends in wishing him many
more happy birthdays and trusts that
ere many more years are added to the
sum total the aimiable Colonel will
have others even closer than friends
to help him celebrate such suspicious
occasions. A good man is deserving
of a good wife and the other good
things resultant of marriages planned
in heaven. May George have 'em all
and then some.

Big Crowd on Hand Court Day

A big crowd was in Stanford for

of the cattle market which was very
brisk at the stock yards, there was
little trading. Several mule tuyers
were on hand, but we're unable to Sc
cure anything that SUI I'D their pur-
poses. There were about 500 cattle
on the market at Ndnrellcy's stock
yards, and nearly ali of them sold as
the demand was very active. Prices
were about SO heal hiyhv' than a
month ago. The five candidates for
the judicial district offices were here
and put in a busy day shaking hands
with the voters. Persistent reports
that one of the candidates for Com
monwealth's Attorney would soon
withdraw were heard early in the
morning, but nothing developed dur
ing the day and the field was still
full in the evening. Sid Douthitt, of
Henry county, running for railroad
commissioner, was the only out-of-
the district candidate here during
the day.
