VOL. XVJII. SIXTEEN MEN DROWN Boat, Heavily Loaded, Capsized in Raging Hudson. FRANTIC STRUGGLE FOR LIFE Many Were Saved by Clinging to Upturned Craft, While Victims Were Swept to Doom by Resistless Torrent. Nineteen men are dead as a result of the capsizing Saturday of a terry boat used by workmen at Spier Falls, N. Y., on the Hudson river. Over a thousand men are employed there at present in the construction of the power dam of the Hudson River Power Company. The laborers and many of the maisons are Italians, who live in shanties on the north side of the river. The main portion of the work is carried on at present at the opposite side of the river. The men have been in the habit of crossing a small bridge where the river flows through the unfinished portion of the dam, but the river had been rising for several days and the company, fearing that the bridge was unsafe, destroyed it with dynamite. Below the work about a half mile is a ferry. The boat is a scow-shaped affair 30 feet long and 13 feet wide, and is operated by means of cables. It is largo enough to carry a heavily loaded tear, and as many as 150 men have been taken across at one time. Saturday morning seventy or eighty men got aboard and the boat started, leaving a big crowd waiting on the bank for the next trip. When 80 feet from shore the water splashed against the rail, and an Italian boy seized one of the tackle ropes which ran from the overhead cable to the stern of the boat. Some of the men started toward him, and instantly the boat filled and careened and filled, every one being thrown intothe water. The Hudson, swollen by the freshet, bore a score or more of the struggling men down the stream. Many others succeeded in catching hold of the boat, which had righted, and they thung there until pulled ashore. The wildest excitement prevailed, the current carried many of the men in toward the shore, where they were rescued. Teams were quickly harnessed and loaded with skilled log drivers and sent down along the river to points where the bodies would be likely to land. Dozens of dinner pails, hats and coats were fished out, but it was nearly 4 o'clock before the first body was found. There were but two or three English-speaking men on the boat, the Italians being all designated by number. The rols of the men were called and Saturday evening everybody had been accounted for except sixteen men, and it is certain that these men were drowned. BURDICK CASE MYSTIFYING. Evidence Points to Some One Involved In Social Scandals. Public interest in the mysterious murder of Edwin L. Burdick, the millionaire president of the Buffalo Envelope Company, in his home at Buffalo, N. Y., on the night of February 27, increases. From the first the evidence secured has pointed to some one involved in the social scandals of the set in which the Burdicks moved. Divorce proceedings had been begun by the murdered man and his wife had brought a counter suit. In their eagerness to solve the mystery the police Saturday made a false move. They immediately retraced their steps when it was found that the district attorney considered their case to be entirely too filmsy. Marion W. Hutchinson, a young woman formerly employed in Burdick's office, was taken to police headquarters by detectives at an early hour. She was not under arrest, the police say. Her attorney says she was released because the police could find absolutely nothing against her. PISTOLS IN CHURCH. Two Factions Engage in Fusilade. One Dead and three Wounded. At Mount Pleasant Baptist church, six miles from Johnston, S. C., two factions sprang up in the church. One faction forbade Rev. Kit Jones to preach last Sunday night. The other faction insisted on preaching and the minister went into the pulpit and was fired upon. Two of the preacher's friends were in the pulpit with him and they returned the fire. George Hammond was shot dead and his three sons seriously wounded. The Savannah Tribune. WOMEN BRUTALLY TREATED. Ovetzealous Sleuths in the Burdick Case Continue to Bring Publie Ignominy Upon Themselves. Mrs Gertrude Barnard Payne and Miss Marlon Hutchinson, Burdick's typewriter, have been given the third degree by Buffalo, N. Y., police in connection with the Burdick murder. Both of these women have told of their treatment at the hands of police authorities. Mrs. Payne said: "The detectives came to my house at 10 o'clock at night and made me go to the station with them. That was a dreadful experience. There I was in a room with seven great big men, each one hostile to me. They would ask me questions in the plainest of language and blow smoke into my face at the same time that they asked the questions. "After I had sat there at least an hour and answered every question that was asked, one of the men in a brutal tone commanded me to 'stand up.' Of course, I did not know what was coming or what they wanted me to do, but I at once arose. "For a few minutes District Attorney Coatsworth and the detectives whispered together and the door of the office was thrown open with a tremendous noise. A man entered the room whom I could not see. A little later some one went out and then a detective said to me in a rough, brutal way: 'You're the woman; you've just been identified.' "I asked him what he meant, and he replied in the same harsh voice: 'You're the woman, sure, that night at Burdick's. You've just been identified by that mar.' Made Her Disrobe. Miss Marlon-Hutchinson related the following: "It was a 0 check in the morning that they came for me. When I was taken into his office, the first words that Cussack said to me were: 'I'm sorry for you, miss; I know you were driven to it.' I did not know what he meant and said: 'I beg your pardon. He then went on and told me he knew I had to kill Burdick. This took place on my arrival at police headquarters. A few minutes later I was taken upstairs into the matron's room. There every article of clothing that I had on was taken off from me. The matron looked into my shoes and she closely examined my stockings. I had a handkerchief which had not been unfolded, and this she shook out to see if a clew was hidden within it. About my throat was my locket that held the picture of my dead baby brother. She peeerer into that, as though expecting to solve the murder of my dead employer. "Then she seized on a note that I had from my sweetheart, and this was not returned to me at all. Yet General Bull says that I was not arrested. "The first thing that happened after I went into that room," she said, "was that General Bull went to the 'phone andeled to some one: 'We have got her all right. She killed him.' I don't know who he was taming to, or whether he was just pretending to frighten me." WORK OF DISGUISED WHITECAPS. Severely Whip Negroes and Order Them to Leave the State. Word reached Quitman Monday of the doings of a band of whitecaps near Barwick, Ga., a few days ago. They entered the house of Charles Lammons, claiming to have a warrant for him and his son, and took them out in the woods, severely beat them and then gave them forty-eight hours to get out of the state. They then attempted to take Lee Wright, but he outran them and hid in the swamp all night. The whitecaps finished up by firing into the house of Scott Wilson, fatally wounding his boy. All the victims are said to be respectable negroes, and no reason is known for the whitecaps' action. They were disguised and none of the party were recognized.

Over George Dead and Forty-Five Injured—Disaster Caused by Explosion cf Talks cf Wrecked A score or more people were killed and a large number were injured by an explosion of oil at Ocean, N.

Others fell where they stood, overcrowded by the awful heat. Just how many were killed is not known, as many of the bodies were incinerated. Resembled Himalayan Torches. Sydney Fish, a prominent business man, returned from the scene of the fire at midnight. He said: "I was attracted to the scene of the fire between 9:30 and 10 o'clock. When I was within a quarter, of a mile of the wrecked train there was a terrific explosion. Flames shot outward and upward for a great distance. I saw several persons who started to run away drop on the railroad tracks and they never moved again. Others who were standing close to the wreckage were hurled through the air for hundreds of feet. The scene was awful. Half a dozen young boys ran down the tracks with their clothing, resembling human torches. I could hear their agonizing screams distinctly from where I stood. They ran some distance down the track and then threw themselves to the ground, grovling in the ditches in their frantic efforts to extinguish the flames. Then they lay still, some of them unconscious, others dead. I don't know how many wer- killed, but I counted twenty dead bodies before I came away." Word was sent at once to Olean police headquarters. Every doctor and ambulance in the city was summoned Grocery wagons and carriages of all kinds were pressed into service and everything possible was done to bring the injured without delay to the hospitals for treatment.

LEVEES PUT TO UTMOST TEST Theusands Flee to Highlands for Safety—Hosts of Men at Work Keeping Levees Intact—Great Damage Already Done. Dispatches of Tuesday gave a most gloomy view of the flood situation in the Mississippi valley and uneasiness is increasing on every hand. The government steamer Atlee loft Memphis, Tenn., Tuesday for White river with a cargo of material and a large body of patrols. All patrols are under arms. Refugees from the lowlands came into the city by every boat and many have sought higher land in the vicinity of their homes, awaiting developments. The government engineers have officially stated that the situation is very serious and predict that within a week the highest water ever experienced will be rushing through the levee channels. Lowlands Are Flooded. Reports from points in Mississippi say that the lowlands are completely inundated and in many cases stock is suffering. The nogro farmers have abandoned their homes for high ground. Captain Lucas, chief of the government forces, has furnished the St. Francis levee board the use of the steamer Abbott and this vessel, under the direction of Captain Lee Vasseur, assistant engineer, will patrol the levees stretching along the river between Cat island and Pecan Point. From Pecan Point north the steamer Graham will do sentry duty. In addition to these vessels the government boat Chisca will be used as a reserve vessel. The condition of the embankment 20 miles north of Memphis, where the water is flooding around the end of the levee in the 17-mile gap, where the embankments have never been built, is serious. It is believed to be one of the most dangerous places along the river. It is reported that the water is slowly washing away the levee there by running around it. The engineers in charge have put in temporary revetments, but not before the counties of Lee and Crittendon, in Arkansas, were overflowed. Captain Potter, chief engineer of the third levee district, said that his force was prepared for the flood and that the embankments are all in good condition. These steamers patrolling the territory with all the necessary emergency supplies aboard. White river, in Arkansas, Tuesday morning reached the danger line and was still rising. Backwater from the Mississippi river reached as far as Clarendon, Ark. Strengthening the Levees. The river at New Orleans, Tuesday, registered 19.8 feet, a rise of only two-tents of a foot for twenty-four hours. Much of the present flood is due to the water which has poured out of the Red, Arkansas and other lower streams, and the engineers are hopeful that considerable of this water will be carried off before the effect of the freshets in the Ohio, Tennessee and other upper rivers are felt. The Orleans levee board continues its employment of men to fill sacks with sand. Dirt is being hauled to the river front and weak places made secure. THE OLEAN CATASTROPHE. From Eighteen to Twenty People are Known to Have Lost Life.

Y. Owing to the fact that some of the bodies were incinerated in the fierce flames or blown into the creek by the fierce explosion the exact number of dead will probably not be known for several days.

Democrats Discuss Feasibility of Amending Both the Canal and Cuban Reciprocity Documents. A Washington special says: The democrats of the senate will in all probability insist upon the amendment of the Panama canal treaty with Colombia in two important particulars. An informal conference of leading democrats was held after adjournment of the senate Tuesday, at the instance of Senator Gorman, and the gentlemen present were requested to give their views upon the two pending treaties in detail. It was not a caucus, and no final action was taken; but the exchange of views indicated that there is a probability of the democrats insisting upon two amendments to the canal treaty and one to the Cuban treaty before they will give their support to the pending conventions. Absolute American control, with the right to defend and fortify, if necessary, the canal, is one of the amendments which had the approval of most of the senators at the afternoon's conference; the other amendment to the canal treaty which will be insisted upon will be the elimination of the clause in the treaty as drawn which pledges this government against any effort in the future to secure territory belonging to any other Central or South American governments as well as the republic of Colombia. This is regarded as an entirely gratuitous declaration on the matter, having no bearing upon the relations between this government and Colombia, and it is contended that it has no business in this treaty. It is also contended that its elimination cannot in any possible degree affect the ratification of the treaty by Colombia. With regard to the Cuban treaty, the democrats will, from present indications, insist upon the amendment of that document by inserting a declaration that its provisions do not become operative until embodied in an act of the congress. The conference was attended by about fifteen senators. There will be another meeting, and if by that time it is discovered that there is practical unanimity of opinion, as seems most likely, a regular caucus will be called. Senator Morgan was not at the conference, but his colleague, Senator Petus, was. Senators who were there decline to discuss what occurred, but it is understood that there was practical unanimity of opinion, both with regard to the amendment of the Cuban treaty so as to remove the constitutional objection to the document as it stands and also upon insisting upon the amendment of the Panama canal treaty in the two important particulars above indicated. Man Implicated In Burdick Case Killed and His Wife, Fatally Hurt. At Buffalo, N. Y., Tuesday afternoon, Arthur R. Pennell, one of the chief figures in the investigation of the Burdlek murder, was hurled headlong into eternity. He was riding in his electric automobile with Mrs. Pennell. They were on Kensington avenue, skimming along the edge of the Gehrs stone quarry, a huge rock-ribbed hole in the ground. Mr. Pennell's hat blew off. The automobile swerved and in some inexplicable manner it leaped over the curb into the abyss below. Pennell was killed instantly, while Mrs. Pennell was injured so severely that the surgeons say her chances of recovery are very slight. SAFE BLOWERS IN LIMBO. Four Men are Bound Over to Court at Hearing in Charlotte, N. C. at Hearing in Charlotte, N. C. At Charlotte, N. C., Tuesday, James Long, Walter Wood, Charles Rogers and H. B.

These are the men who were jailed at Monroe charged with blowing up the safe in the postoffice at Greens. HAS FLAGLER SOLD JUT? Reports of Such a Deal is Believed in Gotham Financial Circles. The various reports concerning the Flagler hotel system in Florida have been freely circulated in the financial district in New York.

"I Feel Like a Young Man Again" Mr. J. W. Fuller. A GREAT many remedies to temporarily relieve catarrh have been derived from time to time, such as sprays, snuffs, creams and other local applications, but, as a rule, the medical profession has little or no enthusiasm in the treatment of catarrh. THE TEST OF GOLD. A Vast Number of Kidney Suffering People, Cured by Doan's Kidney Pills, say but for the Free Trial they would still be in Agony. This means Golden Merit at your Command to Test. It therefore created a great sensation in medical circles when Dr. Hartman announced that he had devised a compound which would cure catarrh permanently. The remedy was named Peruna, and in a short time he became known to thousands of catarrh sufferers north, south, east and west. Letters testifying to the fact that Peruna is a medical cure for catarrh began to pour in from all directions. Thousands of such letters are on file in the office Of The Peruna Medicine Co. Rev. E. Sutubenvill, Fella, Wis., writes: "I would extend to you my personal thanks for your kindness through the winter I suffered from throat and lung trouble, but recovered my entire health by the use of your excellent remedy, Peruna." The following letter from a prominent gentleman of Los Angeles is a case in point: J. W. Fuller, President of the Jewelers' Association of Los Angeles, Cal., has been in business in that city for eteen years out of the forty-five that he has been engaged in business. Concerning his experience with Peruna he says: "I was troubled with catarrh of the head for many years. It affected my sense of smell, hearing and sight. I Notes of the Century.

They did me so much good, I procured a 50-cent box at the drug store and have been greatly benefited.

"I must say that I met with most surprising and satisfactory results. Peruna took hold of the complaint and drove it entirely out of my system.

Amplified with Thompson's Eye Water Happy Homes One of the essentials of the happy homes of to-day is a fund of information as to right living and the best methods of promoting health and happiness. With proper knowledge, each hour of recreation, of enjoyment and of effort may be made to contribute to that end and are of not less value than the using of the most wholesome foods and the selecting of the best medicinal agents when needed. With the well-informed, medicinal agents are used only when nature needs assistance and while the importance of cleansing the system effectually, when billious or constipated, has long been known, yet until within recent years it was necessary to resort to oils, salts, extracts of roots, barks and other cathartics which were found to be objectionable and to call for constantly increased quantities. Then physicians having learned that the most excellent laxative and carminative principles were to be found in certain plants, principally in the leaves, the California Fig Syrup Co. discovered a method of obtaining such principles in their purest condition and of presenting them with pleasant and refreshing liquids in the form most acceptable to the system and the remedy became known as—Syrup of Figs—as figs were used, with the plants, in making it, because of their agreeable taste. This excellent remedy is now rapidly coming into universal use as the best of family laxatives, because it is simple and wholesome and cleanses and sweetens the system effectually without disturbing the natural functions and without unpleasant after effects and its use may be discontinued when it is no longer required. All who would enjoy good health and its blessings should remember that it is the one remedy which physicians and parents well-informed approve and recommend and use and which they and their little ones alike enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects. Syrup of Figs is for sale by all reliable druggists, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, in original packages only, having the name of the remedy—Syrup of Figs—and the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.-printed on the front of every package.
