PROTEST SUFFRAGE BILL " Deirronstratlons Over Kingdom-Following Mass Meetings Result in 9 Several Clashes and Scores Are Injured BERLIN, Feb. 14. Demonstrations by Socialists throughout the kingdom after mass meetings held yesterday to protest against the suffrage bill, re Fulted in serious . affrays between the demonstrators and the police In many places.

Reports from places outside of Berlin give a number of casualties. Many Are Wounded. The worst affair occurred at Keuroun Fter In liolstein, where a working man was mortally wounded by a knife through the lungs: another's hand was cut off, while a third lost an ear. At Halle, after the clone of the meetings, 2000 Socialists attacked the police, who dred their sabers and wounded many. At Koenigsberg, where the Socialists returned In a body from suburban meet- . Infra, the police, in attempting to divert the crowds Into the side streets used their trtdo arms. They also made a num ber of arrests. At Duisberg, on the ;?Tth1ne, Socialists- in a series of street 'demonstrations came Into collision with the police. The latter used their sabers : and several manlfestants were cut end braised. At Cologne huge crowds assembled in Cathedral Square, Intending to march in order to the meeting places In the suburbs, but strong cordons of police held the chief thoroughfares and forced the crowds to take to the side streets. Protests Are Registered. The meetings were so largely at ' tended that the authorities closed the halls after they were filled to prevent overcrowding. Speakers urged the So cialists not 'to offer resistance to the police. Sharply worded resolutions of .protest were adopted. In the suburbs of Berlin 40 meetings were held in crowded halls. The ma jority were peaceably conducted, but in Rlxdorf, a southern suburb of nearly 300,000. an immense crowd gathered in the public square and listened to speeches by several leaders. A police lieutenant called on the peo ple to disperse, but they refused to obey. The officials thereupon tried to "break up the meeting and some of the crowd responded with a shower of stones. After the meetings large pro cessions paraded through the principal Suburban streets singing the working anen's "Marseillaise." Some of them tried to reach the cen tral sections about the Schloss platz, bat the police held all the approaches and dispersed the crowd without seri ous difficulty. Later, the police ordered a crowd composed largely of youths at the Kronprlnzen bridge to disperse, tit the officers were greeted with shouts of 'blood nounds" and a shower of stones. An officer ordered the men to charge with drawn arms. At Essen several Socialists or their supporters received cuts from the sabres of the police, but not one was dangerously injured.

Feb. 14. Rumor is busy with the Prime Minister's visit to the King at Brighton on Sunday, but Mr. Asquith went at once for the vreek- end Into the country and neither the uuiwi of -the new Ministers nor any thing authentic regarding the govern ment's polICy has become public. It Is believed that a final decision will bo reached when the Premier com municates the King's views to the Cab inet Council- tomorrow. It Is said, however, that at the last moment, Mr. Asqulth yielded to the extremists and the Redmondltea and, on the ground that a discussion of the address and the budget would postpone the ques tion of the veto of the House of Lords until after Easier he has consented to introduce the veto bill before the budget, even though this course en dangers the budget and may bring about another general election In a few months. A significant statement was made to day by a Liberal whip, J. M. F. Fuller, who in a speech at Trowbridge, ad mitted that In the last three days dif ficulties have arisen that made It quite possible that the House - of Commons would reject the budget. They did not know what attitude the Nationalists might assume, he said, and It was quite possible that they might within a few months have to fight another general election on an Issue of supreme Im portance to the democracy of the country. WOMAN REVEALS GRAFT COLORADO'S BOILER INSPEC TOR. GETS HEARING TODAY. Stenographer's Revelation.- Prove State May Have Lost $20,000 Each Year. DENVERl Feb. 14. According to State Auditor Roady Kenehan, and Gov ernor Shafroth, graft which may have cost the state 20.000 a year has been unearthed in the office of Alexander E. P. Whitney. State Boiler Inspector. The officials who conducted 'the In vestigation which followed the protest ing of an expense voucher turned In by Whitney, claim that Whitney had three sets of receipt books, numbered in duplicate, and that he accounted to the state only for receipts issued from one book and put the funds received, from the issue of receipts from the other two books into his own pocket. It Is estimated that there are 5000 hollers In the state, which should yield the 1 state $25,000 each year. The amount turned Into the state last year Is little more- than $5000. The system said to have been used by Whitney was exposed by the con fession of Mrs. Ada R. Tibblts, a' ste nographer employed In the Boiler In spector's office. She says similar graft has been going on for 11 years. Boilers in Denver are exempt from inspection by the state Inspector, but Whitney aomits having examined boilers in Denver and given state certificates of Inspection to the owners and kept the fee himself. Whitney will have a hearing before Governor Shafroth tomorrow. BABY'S CRY SAVES 12 DOZEX rXCOXSCIOCS FROM GAS IV II If. V HELP ARRIVES.

Many of the survivors show the ill ef fects of their month's, eamp on the storm bound coast. Several of them are still suffering severely from frostbites. Captain J. C. Hunter, commander of the Karallon, says that the wrecked steamer is a solid mass of ice. The con stant dashing of . the waves over the hulk has, completely encased the steamer with frozen spray, so that now nothing shows above the ice but the steamer's funnel. Captain Hunter believes that the boat's crew, that left camp January 7, is safe. The two seamen, Nelson and Peterson, had fished along the coast of K.odiak Island and are thoroughly familiar with that part of the Alaskan coast. Captain Hunter says that he believes the men will be, found at Kodiak and that if they have not reached there already they may have taken refuge at some Indian vil lage.

Xashvile Tennessean. Twenty-nine lives were snuffed out re cently' at Marshfieltl. Or., by the sinking of the steamer Czarina. The vessel, bound for San Francisco, was caught in a gale as ft passed out of Coos Bay ana was dashed pto pieces on the bar within sight of a life-saving crew which could not launch a boat nor get a lifeline to the unfortunate craft because of the rough sea. The North Pacific coast Is the most hazardous part of the American sea board. Every season brings terrible dis asters along the California, Oregon and Washington coast, and most of the wrecks are due to the poor lighting of the dangerous shore. In spfte of the Importance which the shipping in the Pa cific Is attaining, the Government Is slow to afford it adequate protection.. Con gress has been criminally negligent In kfs treatment -of the Pacific, and every part of the United States would be glad to have lighting and life-saving conditions bettered along the west coast. Only last year Tennessee lost a prominent citizen m one of the Ill-fated vessels whlcn dashed against an unllghted reef on the California coast, and men and women from nearly every other . state in the Union were drowned In the same wreck. Inaccurate Historian Fronde. J. F. Rhodes, In Historical Essays. Macaulay is an honest partisan. Tou learn very soon how to take him, and when distrust begins one has correct ives In Gardiner and Ranke. Froude is much more dangerous. Hia splendid nar. rative style does not compensate for his Inaccuracies. Langlois makes an apt quotation from Froude. "We saw," says Froude, of the cityof Adelaide, in Aus tralia, "below us in a basin, with the river winding through IV a city of 150.000 inhabitants, none of whom has ever known or ever will know one moment's anxiety as to the recurring regularity of three meals a day." Now for the fact Lang lota says: "Adelaide Is built on an eminence-: no river runs through It- When Froude visited it the population did not exceed 7B.O0O, and It was suffering from a famine at the time." Froude was curious in hta inaccuracies. He furnished the data which convict him of error. He quoted inaccurately the Simancas manu scripts and deposited correct copies in the British Museum. Carlyle and Ma caulay are honest partisans and you know how to tak them, but for constitu tional inaccuracy such as Frouoe'a DO allowance- can be made. 9 3,1X1 Men's Suits, Overcoats ----- ' ' 1 4 F- : 1 J Copyright 1909 by Hart Schafftaer Be Mane HO KNIFE; ESCAPE FOILED PRISONER ys SHIP CANNOT CUT AWAY RAFT. Nervy Scheme Fails and Federal Prisoner Has to Continue on Way to Jail. SEATTLE, Wash., Feb. 34. (Special.) Growing- more desperate each moment as the speeding1 eteamship rushed him nearer the prison gates, David Cannae k, a Federal prisoner from, Alaska, made a daring effort to escape from the Victoria in the Strait of Juan de Fuca late Sat urday night. Only the lack of a jack knife or other sharp-edged tool thwarted his plan. Carmack was convicted Sa the North of attempted murder. With 15 years of hard labor at Mc Neil's Island confronting him, Carmack planned to gain liberty by dumping a life raft overboard, Jumping after it and then swimming to It through the cold waters of the strait. Carmack thought he saw his opportu nity at 10:30 o'clock Saturday night, when the Victoria was off Neah Hay and when the vigilance of the Deputy Marshal was relaxed. Quietly he stole out of the door and groped his way through the .dark ness to where the life rafts were laahed. Here H was he realised the futility of his plan. He had not expected to find the rafts lashed. He fumbled in the darkness with the knots for a few moments and retreated to a dark corner when the foot falls of the ship's watchman were heard. Carmack' s disappear ence was discovered and the deputy on guard organised searching parties. For four hours the vessel was scoured for the missing man before he was found.
