CLOSE CALL FOR RESCUE Disaster Swlfllr Have Whelms Stricken Boat So That Members of Crew No Time to Don lifebelts Before Leaping. SAl'LT STK. MAR1K. Mich.. July 12. Three minutes after the steel steamers Isaac M. Scott and John B. Cowle had collided In Lake Superior early today, about a mile and a half off Whlteflsh Point lighthouse, the Cowle had sone to the bottom In 60 fathoms of water, carry 'iiT with her 14 members of her crew. The Scott, although badly damaged about the bows, put back to this port, where she arrived this afternoon with part of the crew of the Cowle. A heavy for was responsible for the collision. The Scott, a new boat on her maiden trip to the head of the lakes, had just passed the light at Whitens!) Point, and stralRhtened out her course up the lake, when she suddenly saw the Cowle loom up through the fog, broadside on and only a few feet away. Vessel Soon Sinks. The Cowle was down bound with fiOOO tons of Iron ore In the hold. For 15 feet the bow of the Scott penetrated the side of the Cowle. Tons of water rushed Into the great opening and in three minutes the Cowle had settled. Immediately after the collision a line was thrown from the deck of the Scott to the forward deck of the Cowle, and three members of the crew escaped to the deck of the up-bound boat by this means. Men Jump for Lives. The rest of the crew who were saved Jumped from the sinking steamer Into the lake, some without life preservers, and were picked up by the Scott and the steamer Goodyear, which was a short dis tance astern when the accident occurred. Captain Rogers of the Cowle was one of those rescued by the Goodyear. I ntll Captain Rogers returns here It is Impossible to secure the names of the men who perished. Survivors say that they Include both engineers, the four firemen, four deck hands, the second cook, porter and an oiler named Patten. The John B. Cowle was 445 feet long.

The Sutton x case, however, has never floured In tVis class. Two stories have been accepted and they do not irreatly differ. One is that Sutton quarreled with his companions and fired on two of them, one bullet Btrlkintf a button of Lieu tenant Roelker's blouse, knocking him down, although it did not penetrate. The other officer present Is alleged to have nprunK upon Lieutenant Sutton with the cry "You've killed Roelker." Button, according to this version, is al leged to have replied: "All right, then; her go s," and to have shot himself. The other version -a. that one of the officers, after the first flrlnjr had taken place, was on top of Sutton beating: him with his fists, and that Sutton, in reach ing: the revolver up over his shoulder, found It caught by the other and the fatal wound was inflicted in the scuffle that followed. titration which it had conducted into the death of her son. After havinar Investigated the case thoroughly and reading- the official record of the testimony of witnesses taken at the original inquiry into young Sutton's death. Mr. Fulton says that he advised the family to suspend further Investigation. At the hearing, the testimony showed that disinterested witnesses had testified to having seen Sutton shoot himself. Discussing his connection with the case and the ser vices he rendered Mrs. Sutton, Mr. Ful ton yesterday said: Of course it 1 seldom. If ever, possible to satisfy a mother that her son wu in the wrong. I am, however, surprised that Mrs. Sulton should have accused me of a want of earnestness In seeking- to right any possible wrong Imposed on the name or character of her boy. for I have letters in my possession from her hueband thanking- me for my In terest and efforts In, their behalf. I first took the matter up at the request of Mr. Button, who asserted that he had been un able to secure from the department any in formation concerning: the facta I found the department perfectly willing- to give out the facts If the parents were disposed to Insist on that being done; but out of consideration for their feelings, had advised against such action. The then Assistant Secretary of Navy, Mr. Newberry (afterward Secretary of Navy , one of the most sympathetic, kindly men I have ever known, readily sup plied me with the entire record in the case and stated that he had refrained from mak ing It public solely out of consideration for the parents of the dead boy. He requested me to go over the record, saying that if I then advised that It be given out he would do so. I did go over the record carefully and the facts were such that I advised the parents to let the matter rest. Indeed I assured them that In my Judgment It would con tribute nothing to their peace of mind to agitate the matter further. They requested a copy of the evidence and I secured It for them. Mrs. Sutton then came to Washing ton and supplied me with affidavits and ' statements she had secured, which, she con- i tended, refuted the finding of the investigat- , Ing tribunal, that her son had shot himself. I carefully went over such affidavits and statements in connection with the record, ; and while they In a degree tended to show , that the boy had been less to blame and was less culpable for precipitating the trouble which culminated In his death than appeared in the record on file in ' the de partment, still they did not seriously, if at all, weaken the direct and positive testimony of a number of apparently entirely disin terested eye witnesses, not only to the tragedy, but to the conduct of the deceased which led up to it. The chauffeur, it la true, was not called as a witness before the board that Investigated the matter. I wu Informed, however, that the reason he was not called was that he declined to come and could not, under, the law, he being a civilian, be compelled to appear. Still It did not seem to me that his testimony was very Important. He v was not present when the shot was fired which caused the death of young- Sutton. He left the party when young- Sutton and another young; officer by mutual agreement got out of-the auto to flpht. After that affair, it appeared that Sutton went to his quarters, secured two revolvers, went out on the walk and fired one or more shots and declared what his purpose was relative to certain persons. He was seen by several who had not been with the party when the fight occurred. Persons entirely disassociated with that party witnessed all that followed. I shall not detail the facts. It is sufficient to say that I advised against further in vestigation or agitation of the matter. I suggested to Mrs. Sutton, however, that if she desired a further investigation she would best take the matter before the grand Jury, where all witnesses could be com pelled to testify. In this recommendation the Secretary of the Navy Joined with me. It seemed to me that such course would be the best, as a grand Jury would be free from any possible prejudice and the pre liminary Investigation would be secret and If It should not appear that young Sutton. In the Judgment of an unbiased Jury, had been wronged by the findings of the court of inquiry, the public would not have the affair again called to Its attention and there would be no further public discussion of matter so painful to relatives and friends of the deceased. Further than that, I de clined to recommend. My advice was the result of a most painstaking- investigation of the facts, prompted by an earnest wish to aid the parents In their very natural de sire to clear the name of their dead boy. They had and still have my every sympathy. I hope they will not be disappointed in the result of the second investigation.

Secret of Making Irish Lace. Much Gossip In Sutton Case. WASHINGTON, July 12. Contradictory statements bearing practically upon every phase of the case of the late Lieutenant Sutton are being riven publicity at An napolis and here, and the trial by news papers Is being carried on vigorously. Two Important facts seem established by Informal testimony, which Is belns quot ed. One Is that Suttop had not been drinking unduly on the night of the tragedy, and that he was forced to fight by four officers who had been drinking ireeiy. Conflicting stories are being published regarding Sutton. One is that he posed as a bad man, and always car ried a gun, was morose and quarrelsome and not popular with his brother officers. On the contrary, his former room-mate, John H. Layne, secretary to Senator Lortmer. says Sutton's life was exem plary, his habits good, and his disposition pleasing. Layne said further: "I think It was practically decided to call It a case of suicide before the first investigation was made. In fact a mem ber of the board was asked In advance what the. decision would be, and he said suicide." . Mrs. Sutton Is now at West Point, and says the truth was suppressed on the first hearing, and that the second hear ing will show that three men held her on on the ground while a fourth shot him. She will attend the hearing, com mencing July 19. at Annapolis. BURY GUSHMAN TODAY BODY OF LATE CONGRESSMAN TO BE LAID TO REST.

Friends of the dead officer ex pect to prove by civilian testimony, which tney claim was not asked for at the pre vloua hearing, that Sutton was not the aggressor in the fight which ended In his death, and that he was not drunk on the night of the tragedy, as was stated at the arst hearing. TACOMA. Wash., July 13. (Special.) With flags at half mast the municipal and county offices closed, the last rites over the remains of Congressman Francis W. Cushman will take place tomorrow afternoon, when services will be held at the residence and at the State Armory..

Judge B-rentano's courtroom, where the young Irish lacemaner Is on trial for larceny, a charge which she declares was made only to cover attempts to lead her Into white slavery, was Jammed with women. The state dealt the Gingles defense several blows. The story of the Welling ton Hotel bathroom Incident was Im peached in many features. Attempts of counsel for the defendant to bring Into the case the names of well-known men met with failure. Dr. B. Price gave testimony tending to support the theory that the girl Is suffer ing from a form of hysteria. Man Faints in Crowd. The crowd extended from the street to the doors of Judge Brentano's courtroom. It was there merely to catch a glimpse of the defendant, for Judge Brentano has ordered that none but those directly in terested in tne trial be admitted. One man wedged In the crowd faint ed, from the heat. Several shouldered their way to Miss Gingles' side and spoke words of encouragement. The girl seemed much pleased at the recep tion accorded her yesterday at the Gar field Boulevard Presbyterian Church where she was Introduced from the pulpit by the pastor and given $250 for her defense. The first witness today was Sigvard Sorenson, an employe of the Newberry library. He was called for the purpose of refuting Miss Gingles' statement that she read the papers at the library on January 4 last. She stated on the stand that she read the advertisements of positions. "We do not have newspapers for the use of the public," said Mr. Sorenson. We get the papers quarterly and then they are bound up In big volumes. We do not get them daily." On cross-examination by Mr. O'Don nell, representing the defendant, Mr. Sorenson stated that there- were tables In the reference room where the public could read newspapers. No Suggestion of White Slavery. Mrs. Edna Wolf, matron at the La Salle-street rail-way station, told of two interviews which she had with Miss Gingles In January, subsequent to the first alleged attack, and prior to the Wellington Hotel mystery. On the first visit to the depot Mrs. Wolf found the lacemaker in the wom en's waitlngroom. She complained of feeling faint. Mrs. Wolf had forgotten the Incident when Mis Gingles re appeared a week later and reintro duced herself. "I asked her what I could do for her, and she said she had been arrested on complaint of Miss Agnes Barrette. She said she had been bound and cut in the Wellington Hotel and her clothes taken away. I asked her If there was any suggestion of "white slavery' made to her, and sne said there had not been. She said Miss Barrette abused her be cause she would not give up her secret of lacemaklng. "Again I asked her if there was anything I could do for her, and she said: -Well, if anybody comes here, tell them you found me weak and hun gry. I haven't eaten for three days.' I told her I would say nothing except about her first visit, when she appeared sick. About an hour later she appeared with a stout woman. The woman asked me if it were true that Ella had been at the station and waa suffering from weakness due to lack of food." White Slavery Prevalent. then cross-examined slashed at his neck with the heavy native knife he carried, endeavoring to behead him. Lieutenant James A. Baer, of the Sixth Cavalry, saw his comrade's peril and dashed to his aid. As Jikiri swung back the knife to strike again. Baer shot him dead, and TV ilson dropped to the ground, covered with blood flow ing from the gashes in his throat. It is feared that Wilson will be incapacitated for further service in the Army, as muscles and chords of his neck were severed by the bandit's knife. Writing of the fight. American officers say that in the desperate hand-to-hand struggle on the narrow ledge some of the soldiers may have been wounded by their own fire In their anxiety to save each other they were forced to shoot ouicklv. and fclsrh nower rifles of close range are doubly dangerous, as the bull- ' ets will plow through several men. Hundreds of friendly Moros watched the fight at close range. They perched among the rocks where they could see the ledge and not a movement of the combatants escaped, their eyes. Many of them believed that Jikiri bore a charmed skin, impervious to knife and bullet- AXOTHER OF WOUNDED DIES Duvall Sends List of 14 More Sol diers Outlaws Hit.' WASHINGTON, July 12.

'Is it then so prevalent that you question ail friendless girls who seek your assistance?" "Yes." "Did Ella know what 'white slavery' meant?" "Yes." Dust on Transom Undisturbed. Detective Joseph Kinder gave evi dence damaging to Miss Gingles' nar rative of the attack in the bathroom. He said: 'We examined the bathroom, the transom and Miss Barrette's room. The lock had not been tampered with and the ledge of the transom was covered with undisturbed dust, showing that nobody had crawled over it, as claimed by Miss Gingles." George Urquhart Learns That His Relative Owned Valuable Claims In Alaska. SEATTLE, Wash.. Julv 12. fSneclal.l Believing that his brother. William urquhart, located and filed on mining claims in the Klondike 12 years ago that may now be worth a fortune, and that he was drowned the following year on Puget Sound, George Urquhart, the janitor in the City Hall of Port land, Is in Seattle conducting an In vestigation to gat confirmation of his theory to make effective the will by which he and his sister, Sellna, will get half the estate. "Daisy" Urquhart, as he was familiar ly called by his companions in Alaska. was one of those strange characters who returned from the gold fields In the Spring of 1898 with pockets bulg ing with nuggets. Urauhart waa reck lessly extravagant, and those who knew him here say that one of his pleasures was throwing coins about the streets to watch the urchins scramble for them. He had a police record, too. and the books show he was gathered in twice for intoxication and once to serve out an unfinished term in the City Bastile. His brother has been told that Will- lam Lrquhart was drowned in Puget ouuna some time during the Summer or 1838. wo word has ever been re ceived from him since that time, but K. P. Edsen, the Seattle lawyer who drew the mans will on May 16, 1898, says a prospector, William Martin, who returned from Nome last Fall, informed nim Urquhart was alive a year ago. The will drawn by Mr. Edsen was wit nessed by Rev. Herman J. Frencker and H. E. Lunkley, provides for a gift of $2000 to Providence Hospital, where Urquhart had spent several weeks as a patient during the Spring of 1898 and that the remainder of his estate, consisting of a half interest in min Ing claim No. II, on Bonanza Creek Northwest Territory, all of mining claim No. 8, Eagle Creek.

The soldiers were not to be completely routed, however, and, tak ing up their posts at the end of the ledge, poured a terrible rifle fire into the mouth of the cave, the bullets glancing from the walls and throwing showers of sharp splinters of rock among the besieged. ' Outlaws Die Fighting. Accounts of the final encounter dlf fer. One dispatch says the rifle fire drove the outlaws out of the cave, and that the band rushed from the entrance in a body to assault the besiegers. All perished on the narrow ledge, fighting -1th barongs and krisses against the bayonets and clubbed rifles of the sol diers. The other version of the strug gle describes the 'natives' as coming from the cave one by oif to face the bullets of the soldiers. Both accounts agree, however, that the natives died fighting to the last. Jikiri's Desperate Last Fight. The outlaw chief, himself singled out Lieutenant Arthur H.
