j SEATTLH, Sept. 23. A special cable to
the Post-Intelligencer fronr Wrangell
. says:
I Scenes that words cannot describe
' ' marked the last hours of the unfortunate
. wretches who are numbered among the
victims of the wreck of the Amerlian
' bark Star of Bengal, Which went down to
destruction at Heliu Point, Coronation
' ' Inland, last Sunday morning. Not by
' ; drowning did all the unfortunates meet
- . their death. Many of them were crushed.
' '. bruised and mutilated by the wreck. Hues
spars crushed the spark of life out of
many brave men who were desperately
1 . struggling with the waves In an effort to
; reach shore. Others were caught in the
tangled mass of rope and steel cord.
' while great cases of canned salmon hold
'?l down others, preventing them from reach-
lng the desolate shore in safety.
'. What an appalling scene was presented
JJ on Coronation Island last Sunday! Grave-
yard of as fine a vessel as sailed in north-
2 em waters, the treacherous rock claimed

' more than 109 human lives as toll.
I Victim of Tag Captains' Cowardice.
While the tugs lay a short distance
away, apparently heedless of the big
ship's hazardous position and the crlti-
I ' cal situation of the precious lives aboard.
. Captain N. Wagner was making a des-
perate effort to induce the tugs at least
', to take off the men. Presently, accord
' . lng to his own story, he burned the blue
" lights of distress, but no help came.
" . the ship lay anchored in sufficient water
t. , to have held her safe, but the gale ln
' ' creased in force and those on the doomed
! . vessel could quickly see there was no
hope. The only chance was to get
ashore, and in so doing over five score
t men went down to unknown graves In
the watery depths, their resting places
i unmarked by monument, their epitaphs
the serious charge made by Captain
Wagner that every victim of the disas-
ter Is a victim of the rank cowardice
of the masters of the tugboats Hattle
Gage and Kayak.
, Wagner Demands Punishment. .
Captain Wagner makes a stronger as
, sertion. He insists that the captains of
the tugboats shall be punished if it Is in
t his power to bring them to account for
; their alleged neglect and cowardice. The
master of the wrecked cannery vessel,
who was so III from exposure upon his
, arrival last night that he could scarcely
make himself heard, was much Improved
1 this morning and was still set in his
purpose to have the masters of the tugs
brought to justice.
1 "For four hours the Star of Bengal
rode at anchor. he said, "during which
time every man aboard might have been
' saved. We were lying in seven fath
J " oms with comparatively no wind. We
' anchored at 4 o'clock Sunday morning,
.' but the ship did not commence to drag
, anchor until 8:45 the same morning.
: At any time between daylight and I
' o'clock the tugs could have come along-
side and rescued alL
. "Those two captains are criminally
cowardly, and will have to answer to
' the authorities and to Ood for 110 hu
man lives."
Today's advices confirm last night's
report that 110 lost their lives in the
awful disaster, which rivals that In
which the steamer Valencia figured off
Vancouver Island nearly three years
. ago. Fifteen whites were drowned or
killed. Forty-five minutes after the
Mar of Bengal struck she broke Into
three pieces, only the mlzzen topmast
being visible above the surface.
To four brave volunteers a majority of
the survivors owe their lives. Captain
Wagner states that, when the ship struck
- at 9:4$ A. M., he called for volunteers to
man a boat and go ashore. Four gallant
fellows offered their services and after a
" desperate struggle they finally made the
, beach. There they rigged up a breeches
- buoy, but the ship rolled and pitched so
fearfully that the line was practically
useless. However, the men ashore did
j heroic service in assisting others -out of
the water and In pulling their mates from
the wreckage in which so many were
crushed to death.
Scenes that sickened the hearts of the
J stoutest were witnessed In the surf. With
A desperation born of fear, with strength
given only to those that defy death, the
;' unfortunate men aboard attempted to
reach the shore. But the great majority
' lout In the unequal race. Some were
lifted high on the waves only to be sacked
down to the hungry depths. Others were
imrled against the forbidding rocks,
where they were dashed to pieces. Others
fought only to be crushed under aval
anches of salmon cases or other debris
from the fast breaking ship. The survi
vors try to efface these awful scenes
from their minds, but without success.
Ono Man's Awful Fate.
One man who attempted -o get
ashore by the breeches buoy met a
4 heartrending death. He was holding
fast to the line, which slackened as
.' the ship rolled towards the shore.
Then the great vessel righted her
self and with an awful lurch rolled off
shore. The force caused the line to
arrow taut with a Jerk. The man held
I on with desperation, but he could not
i retain his hold. He was thrown 0
' feet above the wire, and when he fell
struck on the poopdeck rail. His head
' was split, the brains splattered over
the deck and in an instant a mighty
wave swept away all trace of the un
fortunate. Those who reached the shore turned
their attention to rescuing others from
the surf and to pulling out the ghastly
and mutilated remains of those who
had given up their lives. Little sem
blance to human form did many of the
bodies have. In the mass of wreckage,
the frail human beings were crushed,
mangled. Some of the" bodies were
pulled out minus arms and legs. In
some rases the heads were missing.
Others" were disembowelled. The sur-
vivors succeeded In burying the bodies
of 15 white men. Brief and homely
was this ceremony, but that voracious
animals might not desecrate the graves
the bodies were weighted down in the
sandy beach with cans of salmon.
When Captain Wagner left In the Kay
ak's boat, 27 bodies were on the beach,
bruised, mutilated, torn almost to pieces
by the waves, rocks and wreckage.
Story of One Survivor.
Ship Carpenter David Wilson, one of the
survivors, said:
"When the captain called for volun
teers. I put axes, shovels and tools in
the boat, also a rifle. After reaching
shore, the surf gave us a hard struggle.
It pulled the boat's painter from four
men, and surged back and forth until I
thought we ' would never get it on the
beach. Finally we made it fast to a
rock. I rigged the breeches buoy to a
tree on top of the bluff. But we could do
nothing. The poor fellows could not swim
well in the wreckage, which, was mixed
with all kinds of debris.
"Our next thought was to start a fire,
for we were nearly all dead with cold
and exposure. By good fortune one man
had matches In a tight tobacco-box,
With salmon-boxes and other wreckage
we finally started a fire by saturating the
wood with kerosene. It was an awful
experience, especially to see those poor
men trying to reach shore, only to be
drowned before our eyes or to have their
lives crushed out by mountains of wreck'
age."
Dragging Survivors Ashore.
Frank Mutr, a waiter, who was one of
the volunteers, said:
"We four, who went ashore In the
boat, had a hard time dragging bodies
and men nearly dead from the wreck
age. Some were covered with debris and
others were nearly gone when we pulled
them out of the surf. Captain Wagner
was almost gone when we managed to
get hint on the beach. He could not
speak, but from the shore we could see
him pleading witn nis eyes lor rescue.
Cases of salmon pinned him down so
that he could not help himself. We
looked for Hawkins and Healy, but could
not find them. Hawkins was Mrs.
Eabler's brother."
The Coroner's Jury leaves tonight for
the scene of the wreck. The survivors
left for Seattle on the steamer Hum
bold.
BRYAN SPEAKS IN
TRAIL OF SPEECHES FINDS
TER.inTS AT COLUMBUS.
Democratic Candidate Given Great
Receptions Talks on Labor, but
Kot a Word of Haskell.
COLUMBCS. O.,- Sept 23. Twelve
speeches to enormous crowds marked the
second entry of William J. Bryan, Dem
ocratic candidate for President, into
Ohio during the present campaign. His
concluding speech was made here tonight
to a crowd of 20,000 persons, while Just
previously he had addressed the largest
audience that ever had assembled in
Memorial Hall. The seating capacity is
6000. but this was increased by 2000 others
who were satisfied to stand.
Mr. Bryan's appearance on the plat
form created a scene of the wildest en
thusiasm, which took some time to die
out, but the demonstration was repeated
when he was formally Introduced by
James Kilbourne, Democratic candidate
for Governor of Ohio several years ago.
While Mr. Bryan was speaking. Judge
Harmon, the present Democratic candi
date for Governor, and others were ad
dressing the crowd outside.
Says Nothing of Haskell.
In none of his remarks did Mr. Bryan
touch on the bribery charge against Govt
ernor Haskell.
During the day In this city the Demo
cratic candidate for President spoke to
4000 precinct committeemen, the number
being so large that the hall was emptied
in order to accommodate those who had
not heard him talk on organization.
These meetings were followed by ad
dresses to the Commercial Travelers'
League on the trusts and to the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers and Fire
men. His remarks tonight were on the
Issues of the campaign generally, but his
speech to the representatives of the
brotherhoods was devoted exclusively to
the labor question, and more particular
ly to the plank of the Democratic plat
form demanding a trial by Jury in cases
of Indirect contempt. In these remarks
he took occasion to refer to the attempt
made in ls to pass a law covering such
cases.
Mr. Bryan will leave here at 10:20
o'clock in the morning for Cincinnati,
stopping en route at Sprlnglield and Day
ton. Calls for Democratic Congress.
Six speeches were made "by Mr. Bryan
on his way from Toledo to Columbus, at
Fostorta, Carey and Upper Sandusky. In
all his speeches Mr. Bryan made a plea
for support of the Democratic state ticket
and wherever he spoke insisted that
Judge Harmon should appear on the plat
form with him. In the discussion of Na
tional Issues he spoke of the necessity
for a Democratic Congress, in order, as
he said, to secure the remedial legisla
tion which the Democratic platform de
manded. Pays Respects to Cannon.
Addressing a crowd of several thousand
at Marlon, made up mostly oi woraers
In the steam shovel manufactories, Mr.
Bryan denounced Speaker Cannon for
having, ae he charged, throttled legisla
tion intended for the benefit of the la
boring man. A Republican House of Rep
resentatives, he aaid, meant the re-election
of Mr. Cannon as Speaker, and in
that case no hope of labor legislation
could be entertained.
With a Democratic President, he de
clared, "we will either compel the Senate
to yield to the demand of the people or
-!! ,1 f,- mi. fit nuhltc life the Seni-
ators who prefer their own opinions to
the opinions of the voters expressed at
the polls."
Boy Confesses Murder of Priest.
NEW TORK. Sept. 21. A sensational
turn was given last night to the
strange case of Rev. Arturo Azenclo,
the Spanish priest, who was found
wounded in Central Park on the night
of September 14 last, and who subse
quently died, when 17-year-old Enrico
De Lara, son of a West Indian mer
chant, was arrested and charged with
having murdered the priest.
The police say that De Lara confessed
that he met the priest in Monte Cristi.
San Domingo, and the two came to
New York.
On the night of the murder the po
lice Bay the De Lara boy tells of hav
ing met the priest and accompanying
him for a walk to the park. Accord
ing to the police, the boy says he quar
reled with Father Azenclo and threat
ened to shoot him, and the priest fled
and the boy shot. The lad is charged
with homicide and held without bail.
Anson's Daughter Weds.
NEW TORK, Sept. 23. Miss Dorothy
Anson, the 18-year-eld daughter of
Adrian C. Anson, of Chicago, the for
mer baseball captain, and until last
May the County Clerk of Cook County,
quietly left the home of her sister,
Mrs. WTalter H. dough, in Montclair,
S. J., last night and was married at

CIAIjS SUSPECT DYNAMITE.
Structure Undergoing Repairs Falls
Into Susquehanna RiTer
With Coal-Train.
HAVRE DE GRACE! Md., Spt. 23.
Through the collapsing ot a epan of near
ly 600 feet of tho Baltimore & Ohio Rail
road bridge over the Susquehanna River
at this point this morning. 12 loaded coal
cars of a northbound freight train -were
carried down and the epan was totally
demolished. William Wilson, of Havre de
Grace, a watchman, went down with the
wreckage and received injuries which may
prove fatal. There were no other casual
ties. The bridge, which was erected In the
early eighties, was being rebuilt and
double-tracked. The accident occurred
about 6 o'clock. With a crash that was
heard for a distance of several miles, the
Immense mass fell into the river, com
pletely choking up the eastern channel.
Two hours later the section that went
down would have been swarming with
workmen engaged In putting ud the great
eteel beams and girders which enter into
Its construction.
There are reports current that the
bridge was tampered with and that dyna
mite had been concealed in different parts
of the structure during the last few
weeks. Baltimore & Ohio officials are on
the scene making investigations.
