THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 190o. SMASHED ON ROCKS Steamer Founders on Wild Nova Scotia Coast MANY LIVES SURELY LOST Captain, Four Passengers and Part of Crew Being Driven to Sea in Aw ful Blizzard Terrible Suffer ings of Those Who Escape. HALIFAX, N. S., Feb. 7. During a raging and blinding snow storm which has swept the -Nova Scotia Coast for the past -4 hours, the ocean steamer Damara. of the Furnessla Line, ran on the rocks at Mosquodobolt, 30 miles east of Halifax, early today and is be lieved to have foundered with the loss of many lives. The nrst officer of the hhip with 18 of the crew escaped in one of the lifeboats and landed at I Pleasant Point, after a terrmc struggle with wind and .aes Captain Gorst, master of the Damara, four passengers and the rest of the crew left the vessel in another lifeboat. 'J hey have not been heard of since and It is feared that they have perished. The occupants of the boat which reached shoro wero utterly exhausted and many of them were badly frost-bit-ln. They had a harrowing experience, Lattling in the darkness for hours in the Open boats with tempestuous seas on a treacherous coast, with the ther mometer 10 degrees below zero and an Arctic blizzard raging. They landed on shore some time during the day and reached the telegraph ofllce at Mus iuodoboit harbor tonight, whence they wired the first news of the. disaster to the agents of the Furnessia .Line at Halifax, to which port the Damara. was bound. TJie survivors say that the steamer Btruck about 2. o'clock this morning, when the blizzard was so thick that it was impossible to see a ship's length ahead, on what proved to be Mosquodo boit Ledge, five miles from the main land. An immense hole, through which the sea poured in torrents, was smashed in the bottom of the steamer. Th ehoi'k of the Impact awakened everyone on board and huge breakers swept the vessel fore and aft. Lifeboats imme diately were ordered over the side and nil hands left the ship. It is believed that the steamer must have foundered quickly and small hope is entertained by the survivors of the wreck that the captain and other occu. pants of the missing lifeboat could have successfully withstood the ex treme rigor of the weather pre'ailing on this coast for the many hours which have passed. The wind tonight was off shore and, if tho mistsing boat has not already 'swamped, it has been driven seaward many miles and is now prob ably adrift on the Atlantic in the worst weather of the "Winter. Tugs were dispatched from this Jiar bor tonight to search for the boat and to locate tho hull of the Damara. The Damara left Liverpool on Janu ary 24 for Halifax, by way of St Johns, N. F.. and left St. Johns for this poit last Saturday. Tho names of tho survivors could not be learned tonight, but it is known that all of the crew were shippe'i in England. The Damnra was a schooner-rigged steamer of 1146 tons net. She was owned by Furncss, Withy & Co., of Glasgow, and was built in 1SS5 by Stephens & Sons, of Glasgow. Her principal dimensions were: Length, 275 feet; breadth, 35 feet, and depth. 23 feet. HOCH'S KISSES WERE COSTLY New Jersey Woman Admits They Cost Her $6000. NEW YORK. Feb. 7. Among the numerous women now coming forward In the vicinity of New York claiming that a man answering Johann Hoch's de scription married them several years ago. Is Mrs. "Wllhelmina Rummler of Carlstadt. N. J. She has not yet seen the prisoner but has examined his pic tures. Mrs. Rummler claims to have lost J6000 in her matrimonial venture and is now almost pennHess. "On May 27, 1903," she said, "I liad a prosperous florist's business In west JCyaek, X. Y. A man applied to me for a job as foreman. He gave his name as Johann C. Schultz, and came from Chicago. His manner of talking charmed mc and at last he proposed and I decided to become his wife, Twenty minutes after the ceremony my husband asked mc if I had any money. I told him that 1 had $6000 and within the next week he had drawn it and told me that he had just 56000 more and that he was going to put the 512.000 In a safe Investment. He spoke so nicely and kissed me so often that 1 believed him. Every day he would go to the Post Office himself and return with dozens ,of letters. He never allowed me to read any of them. On December 22, 1903, Schultz disappeared. I heard later that he had been seen in Cincinnati and threatened to kill me if I did not keep silent. Since that day I never spoke of him. "That man stole every penny I owned in the world and I was left alone with my three children to make my living." TO SAVE LIFE OF MURDERERS Deluge of Letters on Behalf of Mrs. Edwards in Pennsylvania. READING, Pa., Feb. 7. Letters from all parts of the country continue to pour 'n upon Oliver Lentz. attorney for Mrs. Kate Edwards, who is under sentence .of death for murdering her husband. It Is estimated that at the meeting of the latter part of. next week, petitions signed by 50,000 people will be presonted asking for mercy for the woman. The press department of the TV. C. T. TJ. has written that it is trying to got concen trated attention on the part of the entire assoclaion. In the meantime Mrs. Ed wards is preparing for death with her prison-born daughter. Alma, In her cell. HARRISBURG, Pa., Feb. 7. So nu merous have been the requests from all over the country from people who want Governor Pennypacker to commute to life imprisonment the sentence of Mrs. Kate Edwards, who Is to be hanged at Reading on February 16. that it has been found necessary for the executive depart ment to prepare a circular letter in an swer to these requests. This letter quotes the state constitution to show that the Governor has no power to commute a death senence to life imprisonment, except upon the recommendation in writing of the Board of Pardons. OTHERS PLAYED HOCH'S SCHEME Chicago Police Now Sifting Out List of His Wives. CHICAGO, Feb. 7. The Chronicle to day says: That there is another matri monial juggler in Chicago like Johann Hoch may soon be established through a discovery just made by the police. This discovery Incidentally necessitates check ing one of the many aliases claimed to have been used by Hoch under which name he was reported to have married Mrs. Schultz, of Argos. Ind.. In 1S00. a woman who has never been seen nor heard of lnce the month after her mar riage. Other of .his aliases may be checked off In the same way later. Albert Bushteberg, or Osberg. Is the name which Hoch was believed to have onco used. The police have learned that an other man. also a .German, who adver tised for wives in German newspapers on the Hoch plan, used this alias. This man is now in Chicago and is declared to be married to a woman whom ho met by means of an advertisement In the newspapers and through communication with employment agencies. Inspector Shipper, who found Bushte berg and talked with him once, has be gun an investigation Into the Argos case. He Is satisfied Hoch never used the alias, and has evidence to prove that a man now under surveillance advertised and wrote letters to women in Chicago repre senting himself as Albert Bushteberg. Curtailing the Hoch list of 40 wives-already has been begun by the police. When the process is over it is expected that there will remain about ten women who can be Identified positively as hav ing been married to Hoch. TRIED HIS POISON .ON THE CAT One of Hoch's Wives Used Emetic, and Thus Saved Her Life. CHICAGO, Feb. 7. A variation in the experience of Johan Hoch's alleged wives was told today by Mrs. Amelia Kauke Hoch, of Elgin, III. She says she mar ried Hoch as Frdlc at Aurora, III., two years ago. Shortly after the marriage she became violently ill after taking some white powders administered by her hus band. A physician gave her an emetic and, she believes, saved her life. A small portion of the powder was given to a cat. The cat's death followed quickly. Mrs. Froie's father Identified Hoch's pic ture as Froie's. Requisition for Hoch Granted. ALBANY, N. Y., Feb. 7.

Hearst's Lawyer Accuses Them of Cinching the Consjmer. WASHINGTON. Feb. 7. The hearing of arguments In the case of William R. Hearst, of New York, against the anthra cite coal-carrying railroads, growing out of the coal strike of several years ago, began before the Interstate Commerce Commission today. Clarence J. Shearn, of New York, argued for the complainant and contended that a pool existed among the railroads, that the coal-purchase con tracts are really rate contracts by means of which the railroads depart from their published rates and discriminate, and that the published rates are unreasonable. He claimed that an increase In the price of coal of $1.14 a ton, such as has taken place in the domestic sizes during the last five years, means Imposing an additional burden of 510,000,000 on the public He pleaded for scrupulous observance of rea sonable published rates as a matter of fair dealing between the railroads and the purchasers. Ho claimed that the coal companies were Identical with the rail road companies. Mr. Shearn applied the principle of the Northern Securities case to the case now under argument; contending that the In terstate Commerce Commission itself had "brushed aside the device of a subsidiary company and had treated the parent com pany as the substance," and said the courts had held the Lehigh Coal Com pany and the Lehigh Railroad Company to bo Identical. SENATE SHOULD PASS THE BILL Cullom Says Country Should Have a Chance to Try It. WASHINGTON. Feb. 7.

He also expressed himself today to the Illinois Congressional dele gation and the members of the Illinois Manufacturers' Association, who are here urging rate legislation. Senator Cullom said he was not ready to declare the bill perfect, but as the House had given the question thorough consideration and the Senate will not have time to revise the measure it should be given to tho country for trial.

IN A CONCERT HALL Portland Minister's Daughter Arrested in Chicago. DETERMINED TO BE ACTRESS Beatrice Struble, Daughter of Super intendent of Portland Anti-Cigarette League, Runs Away to Go on Vaudeville' Stage. CHICAGO. Feb. 7. (Special.) Beatrice Struble. the 17-year-old daughter of the Rev. Wallace R. Struble, a Methodist minister, now in Portland, Or., deserted her home ten days ago and was arrested last evening while performing at Michael Fewer's Concert Hall, Halstcd and West Adams streets. Today she was arraigned before Justice Dooley. Unmindful of her parents' pleadings and three years' struggle to induce her to abandon a desire to go on the stage, the young woman refused to return to them. She will probably be taken before Judge Mack, in the Juvenile Court. As a last resource) Mrs. Struble will ask the Judge to commit her to some refuge for erring girls. She Is said to have run away from home previously. The girl's father was ordained a min ister of the Methodist Church in Chicago ten years ago, according to her story, and most of the time since then has devoted his service to the National Antl-CIgarette League. At present, she said, he is su perintendent of the Portland (Or.) Anti Cigarette League. H. C. Davis, an at torney, caused her arrest at the request of her mother. "I do not intend to remain in concert halls. I Intended only to secure a large wardrobe." said Miss Struble, "and then perform In vaudeville' theaters." Justice Dooley continued the case until tomorrow, and scored the concert hall evil. Because of tho girl's age, several ar rests are likely to follow her appearance In the concert hall. TWO NEW STATES. (Continued From First Pace.) polygamy made In the Smoot case have been so startling that the National Government will take control of tho question of polygamy in the states as well as in the territories. McComas also spoke of the revela tions before the committee and ex pressed the opinion that, in view of them, "far more effective strictures than are now In force against polyg amy are necessary." He opposed sep arate statehood for New Mexico. Piatt (Conn.) said there was no doubt about the power of Congress to restrict polygamy, "an Institution which is," he said, "so inimical to our future." Victory for New Mexico. The vote on the amendment for the separate admission of New Mexico was then taken and It was carried, 42 to 40. It was evident from the outset that the vote would be close, and tho progress was followed with deep In terest. Following is the vote In de tail: Ayes Alger, Bacon, Bailey, Bard. Bate. Bern. Blackburn. Garmack, Clark (Mont.), Clay. Cockrell. Culberson. Daniel, Dubois. Elklns. Foraker, Foster (La.). Galllnger. Gibson, Gorman, Hansbrough, Heyburn, Kcarns. Latimer, McCreary. McCumber.

Would Cut Out Indian Territory. While these were In progress. Mc Cumber proposed as a substitute for the provision admitting a state com posed of Oklahoma and Indian Terri tory combined, an amendment admit ting Oklahoma alone as a state. Mc Cumber reported the substitute and Beverldge made an earnest plea against it, saying that It strikes at the entire measure and deprives the people of Indian Terirtory of the re lief they so much need. Bailey and Bate spoke for the amendment It was defeated 45 to 32. Galllnger offered an amendment that it require a majority of both Oklahoma and Indian Territory to adopt a con stitution for the proposed State of Ok lahoma. A motion by Hale to lay the amendment on the table was carried. An amendment was offered by Dol llver providing for terms of court at Tulsa in addition to the other cities in Oklahoma provided by the bill. Bailey opposed the amendment on the ground that the Senators and Representatives of the new state should be permitted to ask Congress to locate the courts. He said, however, that, if a session of the court is to be held at Tulsa, he had friends he wanted to accommodate at Chickasaw and he offered an amend ment providing for this. Both amend ments, were agreed to. A number of the other amendments offered by Dem ocratic Senators were laid on the table. Berry suggestod an amendment, which was agreed to, providing that nothing In the act admitting Oklahoma shall be construed as prohibiting the establishment of separate white and colored schools. The proceedings on the bill through out the day had been In committee of the whole, but at 2:15 the Seante re sumed its sitting. Spooner gave notice that he would demand a separate vote on the Bard amendment for separate statehood for New Mexico. This motion, under the parliamentary practice of MUNYON'S COLD CURE liatdy.

One of these, offered by Dubois, was a reservation by Congress of the rijght to legislate on the subject of polyga my. It was voted down. An amendment was proposed by Kcarns, providing that all that portion of Arizona lying north of the Colorado River shall be annexed to Utah. Beve rldge, In behalf of the committee, In dicated a willingness to accept the amendment, but the chair asked If the yeas and nay.s were desired. Several Senators indicaced a desire to that end and - Bailey, sitting in his seat, but with voice raised sufficiently to be heard throughout the nail, said: "Before that trade is consummated we certainly want the ayes and nays." "The chair did not hear the remark of the Senator from Texas," said Frye, who was presiding. "The remark was not exactly intend ed for the ear of the chair," responded Bailey. "But I will repeat that, before that trade is consummated, we should certainly have the ayes and nays." Beverldge responded thkt the provi sion had been offered early In the ses sion and had been printed. The ayes and nays were ordered and the amend ment was accepted, 38 to 33.
