 ing Over in Night Clothes
Captains Bravery
 Saves Many Lives
Sidewheeler, Bound from Mi.
 waukee, Outrides Gale, but Is Smashed Against Harbor Pier in Attempt to Dock

MUSHROOM, Mich, Oct. 2S.-With fourteen known dead and six or more missing, only time can bring an accurate count of the toll of the great seas which early this morning lifted the Crosby passenger steamer Mus kegon, formerly the City of Holland. and smashed her to pieces on the piers at the entrance to Muskegon harbor. The list of dead is being added to almost hourly.
 The steamer, a side wheeler. bound from Milwaukee, after out-riding q night of gale, made for the harbor in the early morning darkness. but it is said by Captain Edwin Miller 10 have struck the bar at the entrance. The wheel paddles damned in the sand, checking headway, and the great combers threw the ship about and hurled her onto the pier There she hung, momentarily pounding into wreckage and then slipped off into the deep channel. going down in fifty feet of water The vessel lies a storm-torn tangle of steel and splin- tered wood, effectually blocking the harbor entrance
 Fifty of the 72 passengers and crew, guided to safety by a single flash of light in the hands Of coast guard, were tonight known to have been saved. It was feared several were caught between decks. Survi- vors. most of whom escaped only in night clothing, were being cared for by the Red Cross. while in the city morgue lie the bodies recovered.
 James c. Reilley, Grand Rapids. was added to the list of identified dead tonight.
 Graphic stories of terror. suffer ing and heroism were told by survi- vors and the bravery of Captain Edwin Miller and his officers and crew, who remained at their posts to the last, was recounted. Captain Miller. sensing disaster as the vessel was driven toward the pier. ordered all to leap for their lives. and the time-honored rule, women first" was lived up to- Only four women. one of whom was employed on the boat, are known to have perished.
 The women were bravely led over the rail by Mrs. Fred Beerman of Muskegon, who leaped from the ship. Others jumped or were handed down ropes by men passengers and crew.
 Captain Miller. hard stricken by the disaster and loss of lives. de- clared the undertow swung his ship after she struck the bar. 'I told the cabin boys to waken the passengers and crew and ordered all over the rail-" he said. Those who moved quickly were saved. The ones who held back lost their lives"
 To l.. O. Kakorsky, a coast guard. many of those saved owe their lives. according to survivors. Approaching as closely as possible to the suspend ed steamer, he, while others of the coast guard struggled to free men and women from the tangle of wreck age, held a flashlight, directing the way to safety.
 Ut seemed that the ship was lifted out of the water, striking with ter rife force," said Kaknorsky. The lights went out and the boat was pounded to kindling.
 "I used a flashlight and it was by this means that many of the passen- gers were able to jump to the piers"

Executive Board Conference Today May Change Atti- tude; Government Has Not Received Reply to Note
Miners Object To ;
 Long Negotiation
Walkout Will Take Place in Mines Friday Night Unless Today's Meeting Results in
 Officers Changing Decision

/ INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct .2S.- With mo change in the situation reported at United Mine Workers of America headquarters, leaders of the big organization of coal miners were preparing grimly tonight for a mo- mentous conference tomorrow of it's executive board, district presidents and scale committee. John L. Lewis, acting president, arrived late today from his home in Springfield, H., but had little to add to sentiments he has already expressed concerning the general strike planned to take effect in the bituminous mines No vember l.
 The condemnation of the proposed walkout by President Wilson and his suggestion that a tribunal be appoint ed to find a basis of settlement Of the disagreement between workers and employers with coal production continuing meanwhile, held no charms for the union leaders. Echo ing the point made by William Green, secretary-treasurer of the organiza- ton, Mir. Lewis said that the nation al executives idea that the need for wartime prohibition had passed be- cause emergency had ended, ex- pressed exactly the unions attitude towards it's wartime wage contract.
 "There is no further use for war time prohibition, according to the president" said MT Lewis. Neither is there further use for the wartime Washington wage agreement. We therefore resent the imputation that the strike is illegal"
 The suggestion that work be con- tinued pending appointment and re- port of an Investigating tribunal was denominated by MT. Lewis a meas ure of delay.
 "That would mean months of wait ing while men ignorant of mining problems studied and tried to solve them" he said. Meanwhile the miners would be working under the present intolerable conditions"
 Other officials of the union agreed heartily with this view. In addition some of them pointed out that the operators would take advantage or the delay to work the mines to ca pacity. piling up reserve stocks and placing the union at big disadvant- age should the tribunals efforts come to naught.
 ], Direct negotiations with the mine owners. however, would be welcomed by the union. Vice President Lewis, Secretary GGreen and such members of the executive board as had reached here tonight were unanimous in declaring that they stood ready "as before. to negotiate wage scale without reservations" They empha- sized inc last two words and charged that the employers would not nego- tiate except on conditions which the union men were powerless to fulfill.
 Authoritative forecasts of the ac- tion to be taken tomorrow were al most totally lacking. There was a well defined impression, however that a reply to President Wilson would be outlined. at least, if not fully drafted and adopted by the con terence as whole.
 Much doubt was in evidence as 10 the power of the executive board to postpone or otherwise modify the strike order and if that doubt is not resolved the big walkout Will taKe place Friday midnight.

Soldier Kings Speech Ere quently Interrupted by Ap- plause From Galleries; {;
 Many Families Attend

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S. = Both houses of congress paused in their work today to greet the king of the Belgians, his consort and their son. It was the first visit of king to the capitol, and the lawmakers of the na- ton gave a cordial welcome to. the democratic soldier-ruler of Europe's pluckiest little state.
 King Albert is not given to long speeches. His address, first in the senate and then in the house, made scarcely six hundred words, but in them he gave the American army credit for assuring victory in the war, paid homage to the fallen, and ex- tended his sympathy to the wounded. He expressed his admiration for the United States, acknowledged the debt of the makers of Belgium's con- stitution to those who framed that of tl;is country, predicted that the ties binding the two nations never would be broken, and offered thanks to all the Americans who aided his people in the war.
 visit to congress, but there was no mistaking the warmth of the greeting given the royal Belgians and the earnestness of the king in his ad- dress was evident. The galleries were crowded. Justices of supreme court, senators and spectators rose and aDplauded vigorously as the tall. erect figure of the king strode down the aisle beside Senator Lodge. Be- hind him came the prince, escorted by Senator Hitchcock
 A few moments later the hand clapping changed to cheers as Queen Elizabeth. gowned in white and wear ing a wine colored cloak of velvet. appeared in the executive gallery with the wife of Vice President per house forgot their dignity in their admiration for the little woman who had followed her husband through the trenches in eBlgium.
 The king was escorted to a seat be- side Senator Cummins, who was pre- siding as president pro tenn, and who greeted him with high praise for his moral courage and his gallantrty on the field. Prince Leopold was seated on his fathers right. Grouped about them, carrying the swords they wear only on ceremonial occasions, were Lieut.. Gen. Baron Jacques. one of Belgium's greatest military leaders, Col. Tilkenes. aide to his majesty, and Major Count d'Oultremont, adju- tant of the court. With them were Maj. Gen. Wm. NJ. Wrighth and Rear Admiral Andrew T Long, the kings American aides. Ambassador Brand Whitlock. and Baron de Cartier de Marchienne, the Belgian ambassador
 Albert was interrupted more than once by applause during his brief ad- dress and there was another demon stration of approval when he had fin ished. Later he and his son met the senators individually
 The scene in the house was a repe- tition of that in the senate. On the floor were the children of many of the members and their cheers were as enthusiastic as those of their fathers. The king was sighted before his coming had been heralded. and the house and galleries rose to greet him. There was another burst of ap- plause when he was introduced and 2 neven louder one when he had fin. ished his address.

CHICAGO, Oct. 2S.-What is said to be the dirties story ever told in a local police court was related be- fore Justice Bradford this morning by Gerome Higgins, an east side resident, who swore to a complaint charging Herbert Watson with as- sault and battery. Higgins alleges that Watson, angered because his girl had transferred her affections, gathered crowd of friends and took the complainant to the stock yards, where they covered him with mud from one of the pig styes. They left him there, gagged and bound, until stockyard employees re- leased him the next morning. He claimed to be suffering from severe cold.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-A man who gave his name as Henry Wind and his address as Lemoore, Ohio, narrowly escaped asphyxiation to- day when he blew out the light from a gas jet in a local hotel. Wind, whom it was first believed had attempted suicide, explained to the police that he had read about gas and lectricity, but until he ar rived in New York recently, had never seen one of the "pesky things" He admitted that he was aware that gas should be turned off by manipulating a faucet" but said that he had imbibed too freely of supposed two and a half per cent, and was feeling "hors de com bat" when he retired for an after noon's nap.
