Miss Macias, 1871 H street, sailed
from New York last Saturday on the
Moro Castle and arrived in Cuba
Tuesday to visit her uncle, Jose An
tonic Yzenaga, at Havana. Originally
she had planned to 60 with her
cousin, Miss Mildred White, and stay
only a few days, returning on the
Moro Castle to New York this morn
ing, but her cousin could not make
the trip so she decided to stay over
in Havana.
Shock to Pete Macias.
When Pete" Macias heard Of the
disaster this morning he said it was
a great shock, despite the fact he was
sure his sister had remained in Cuba.
Il had urged her to stay over" he
said, "and felt sure she had done SO.
But imagine my relief to get in the
mail this morning letter by airmail,
which she mailed Wednesday. In this
letter she says she plans to 60 to q
ball tonight at the Havana Yacht
Club, and 1 know she wouldn't miss
that. Nevertheless, am going to call
her by phone, just to make doubly
sure"
This was the second time Miss
Macias had narrowly escaped death.
Several years ago she was supposed
to have been in an automobile which
catapulted a few minutes later over
Klingle Bridge, killing three members
OF her family. The family earlier had
looked for her to join them on the
ride, but couldn't find her. Her
brother, Joseph A. Macias, his wife
Lois and Comdr. Henry Thayer,
U. S. NJ, retired, Mrs. Lois Macias'
father, were killed in the accident.
Miss Ellis, who resides with her
mother, Mrs. william M. Ellis at
Herndon, was at work in the ONCE of
Ellert & Short, Inc, when she first
learned from a Star reporter of the
ship catastrophe.
Il can't believe it." she said. 81

ing about this time on that ship. 1t
was q wonderful boat and we had q
lovely trip. Once we went through a
storm, but the ship was so big and
strong I never dreamed of being
afraid or imagined that anything
could happen to her"
Miss Ellis first planned to make the
trip to Cuba during the past week and
return this morning. But there was
change of vacation plans in the
Office. she said, so she sailed August
rs and returned to New York last
Saturday.
Il never was so glad of a change
in vacation in all my life" she sighed
Had the MORO Castle completed
her Inflated voyage, she was sched-
uled to carry at least four Washing
tonians back to Cuba with her on her
next Southern run beginning next
Saturday. The four are Miss Eleanor

RUSHED IN STRIKE
Martial Law Threat Arises.
Gov. BIackWood Issues
Dispersal Order.

Copyright. 1894 by the Associated Press.
CHARLOTTE. N. c., September 8.
The threat of martial law was i'm
pinged against scenes of strife and
dissension in strike-torn Piedmont,
S. c.. last night as fresh troops were
rushed into the area already dotted
with the pitched camps Of rs military
units.
A proclamation was issued at the
office Of Gov. Ibra c. Blackwood in
Columbia, commanding "all persons
engaged in or taking part in any un-
lawful obstruction, combination or
assemblage" to retire to their homes
before noon tomorrow.
Martial Law Considered.
This edict was regarded as an ul-
timatum to the strike sector on whose
battlefrontS in South Carolina seven
men have been killed since the gen.
eral textile strike went into effect. as
the Governor for the past "a hours
has been seriously considering" de-
claring martial law in the State.
The chief executive explained his
proclamation was issued in conform
ity with a State statute requiring for
NAL notice before issuing declara-
ton of martial law or State Of in
surrection.
MY proclamation of tonight is that
notice" the Governor said.
Gov. Blackwood explained the chle1
difference between a state of insurrec-
tion and martial law was technical.
Under a state of insurrection declara-
ton, he said, civil authorities are still
in charge; but troops are at their dis
posal. habeas corpus is suspended and
authorities are empowered to COM
mandeer any resources necessary to
their work. as under martial law.
Launch Counter Offensive.
"I NAV or may not declare a state
of insurrection, the Governor said,
adding that if he did, the area TO
which the declaration would apply
had not been designated.
This development came last night
as Southern textile manufacturers,
aided by National Guardsmen, TOOK
toe-hold and launched a counter Of
fensive against unionists, re-openlng
their plants in several towns while
strike flying squadrons" rested from
their relentless mill closing.
Approximately score OF mills re-
opened behind menacing rows OF
bayonets in the Carolinas, and one
started up in Alabama with the AID
of officers.

were still alive, but their condition
was described as grave.
Nearly nine hours after the o S
went out, the liner City of Savannah
hovered above the smoking hulk of
vivors and lifeboatS.
The number of lifeboatS launched
was thought to be eight, according
to q check of Jersey shore points.
Six of these we're launched from the
Starboard side and two from port.
The gale was blowing from the star
board side, enveloping the port life
boat deck in smoke and flame.
Fourteen persons, three woman pas
sengers and IL members Of the crew,
landed at Asbury Park in a lifeboat
at 6 am. today from the burning pas
senger liner.
Five of them were injured and
we're taken to the Fitkin- Monmouth
Memorial Hospital.
The injured were:
Charles Jackson. engine room crew,

and Florence Robert Of Pawtucket,

Miss La Roche was unable to tell
more about the disaster than that
they were aroused when lightning
struck the ship After a few mo-

pushed into the lfeboat with the IL
members of the crew.
Volunteers Aid In Unloading,
Borne in by the heavy northeast
storm the lifeboats were beached and
willing hands of volunteer workers
aided in the unloading.
Those landed here were taken first
to police headquarters where clothing
in the possession of the local Red
Cross chapter was distributed.
Women of the town quickly organ
lied and started serving hot coffee and
food to the men and women.
An indication Of the sweep of the
storm was given when a power boat
from the ManaSquan Coast Guard
station was forced to return to Swan
Inlet after battling the sea for two
hours and getting only one and one
nalf miles of shore.
Many Of those landed were in their
night clothing and numbers were suf-
fering from shock and exposure.

Crew Members Talk stopped.
Crew members, before their talk
was stopped, stated that fire hoses
were brought forth, only to find there
was no water pressure.
Flames, gaining quick headway in
the rich furnishings of the library,
spread so rapidly that the Superstruc-
ture and upper cabins Of the liner
we're sheets of flame before sleeping
passengers could be awakened and
brought to the deck.
The deck watch was powerless to
break through the walls Of fire and
managed only to dash around the
deck cabins and break the windows
in warning.
Operators of the line reported that
Acting Capt. Warns and two of his
bridge officers had stayed with the
ship, together with some Of the men,
bers of the crew.
The Moro Castle burned only about
8 miles east by south of Asbury Park,
80 miles on an airline from New
York City.
Although Asbury Park is the near
est city, the closest inlet at which
Coast Guard craft could land sur
vivors Is Shark River, three miles
south. Larger vessels brought their
crew OF survivors directly into New
York Harbor.
Scotland Lightship, by which the
Moro Castle fixed its position in the
s 0 s, is famous as New York Har-
bor's welcome to ships from the south.
1t is 3 miles off Sandy Hook.
The disaster presented picture of
horror to those on the Jersey shore,
where storm warnings few.
So brightly did the flames leap that
the blaze could easily be seen, even
through the heavy rain and gales
which whipped the coastline at As

to blot out from anxious watchers the
