sHO i ! STORM
Two Government Boats Are
Said to Be Breaking
Up on Bars

NEW YORK. May 1s.-Driven by
vicious eastern gale, two govern
! ment ships, Eagle Boat No. II and
the army steamer Gen. John w.
wilkins, pounded ashore on Lons
island early today, and are report
ed to be breaking up. The gale,
which sprung up on the heels of a
terrific rain storm about l a. M.
wrought havoc along the coast.
Even the giant Aquitanfa, inbound
! from Europe. made hard sailing OF
her drive along the island. andsat
one time coast guards reported.
! there was a fear she might get in
too close and come to grief on one
of the many hidden bars.
The General wilkins pounded in
on the rocks at Orient Point We'd
nesday. Soon after she struck her
crew was off. and the ship had
been given up as lost.
The Eagle boat, newly. attached
to the dry navy" struck a hidden
ehifting bar one mile off Amagan-
sett. Her crew of sixty men was re-
cued in series of thrilling dashes
through the surf on a wave-sub-
emerged raft to which the men lash
ed themselves.
Commander Rickett of the Eagle
boat, hunting rum runners, ran n
to a heavy fog shortly after mid
night. Then the gale tore down and
ricketts, decided to run for safety,
hoping to get in under the partial
protection OF East Hampton. Off
the Amagansett bars, however. the
little boat struck.
Life savers from the Georgia.
sta ton, near AmaganSett, got close
enough to toss line, but because
of the pounding of the waves dared
not go alongside. With the line,
,Ricketts launched raft. Taking
five men to a trip, the raft was
lnu1led ashore twelve times until all
the crew had beer saved.

Several men armed with guns

Declares War Levied
AS to whether the evidence pre-
scented by the state was sufficient
to implicate Blizzard in the march
and in its purpose. the court ruled
that conferences between the de-
PENDANT and his confederates IN
Kanawha and Boone counties was
proper to go to the jury on the
general aspects of the case, but
none Of his acts except those in
Logan County could be relied
upon as the overt act.
War. he said, does not have to
be waged, under the constitutional
definition to constitute treason. It
is sufficient if warts levied, and
war was levied when number OF
men conspired together for a
reasonable purpose, assembled at
a place Of rendezvous and there
began their march. The beginning
Of the march, he declared, was the
overt act that constituted treason,
and if the defendant were shown
by two witnesses to have been
with them when they started, or to
have Joined them on the march
that was a prima facie case
