INTERNAL MACHINE KILLS FIVE
(By Associated Press }

Hankow, China, Aug. 26.-Major-
General shen, director Of the Han
yang Powder Works, and four Of his
assistants were blown to pieces re-
gently by an explosion of an Internal
machine. A mysterious box was sent
to General Wang at Wuchang. The
general was suspicious of its appear
ance, and forwarded it to the powder
works for its examination. He had
many political enemies, and was
afraid some of them were trying to
kill him. Upon the arrival of the box
at the powder works, the director and
his assistants made an examination
of it with fatal results. The directors
office was completely demolished
One wall was completely blown out,
and all the occupants of the room

CORRECTIONS MADE
IN ST. JOHNS

1t being the opinion of observing
persons that errors in the tabula-
tion of second chice votes were most
likely made in the large precincts,
where the inspectors were over
taxed, recount Of the votes cast
for Governor in Ward 1, of this city.
and in Hastings and NewAugustine,
were made. 1t was found that, in
Hastings, an error in the tabulation
caused a loss of six votes to Mr..
Knott, and a limilar error in Ward
gave him three votes. Only one
error was found in New Augustine,
and that was in favor of Mr.. Cats.
BY actual recount of votes for
Governor in fifteen of the counties
of the State, Mr.. Knott has gained
41O votes, which overcomes the 267
lead which Cats apparently had per
the first returns. Other recounts

CASHIER OF THE BANK OF
LARGO COMMITS SUICIDE

Clearwater. Aug. 26.-M. G.. knight,
cashier of the Bank of Largo, branch
of the Peoples Bank of Clearwater.
was found dead in his bed yesterday
afternoon at his Largo home. sui
eide, with single bullet hole in his
iihead. Several notes on a nearby
table told of the tragedy and the mo.
tive.
The assistant cashier of the local
!, bank has been spending several days
tin Largo auditing the books of the
Largo bank, a mere formality, as un-
til the death-note was read nothing
was suspected.
In one of the notes, left open, but
addressed to his wife, who is return
ldng home from a visit to Georgia,
Knight wrote that he had never taken
a dollar of the banks money but that
he had made false entries to cover
overdrafts of his friends. He said fur
ther that he could not face her with
his discharge he was expecting.
Knight received a telegram at noon
announcing Mrs. Knight would arrive
last night, and 1t is believed this pre-
cipitated the act.
The bank, which is capitalized at
$4,000, will not be the loser in any
case, as the entire staff is bonded In
Ione OF the strongest surety companies
in the country. L. B. Skinner is pres
ident OF the bank and also of the
Peoples Bank here. of which J. G.
Kingsbury is cashier.
Knight was a devout church mem.
ber and taught Sunday school class.
He was universally popular in Largo
and Clearwater. where bis friends, It
is certain, would have rallied around
him in event of trouble and they are
at loss to account for the rash act.
Knight has sister living in Tampa,
a brother at Live Oak and another at
Albany, Ca. where his wife had been
visiting with her neice. He has been
cashier at the Bank of Largo for four
years.
