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.

martial or court of inquiry. 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.

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

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

CHICAGO, July 12, Ella Gingles con
tinued to be a figure of public interest to
day. 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."

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.

the soldiers may have been wounded by
their own fire In their anxiety to save
each other they were forced to shoot

range are doubly dangerous, as the bull- '

Hundreds of friendly Moros watched
the fight at close range. They perched

combatants escaped, their eyes. Many
of them believed that Jikiri bore a
charmed skin, impervious to knife and
