SHIP SINKS WITH 156
ierce Mediterranean Storm
Drives Vessel on Reef.
ONE SURVIVOR REACHES LAND
Clings to Wreckage Until Picked Up
by Fishermen Engine Broke
Down During Storm.
Pal ma, Island of Majorca. Feb. 12.
Driven helplessly from her course ia
one of the . wildest storms that has
swept the Mediterranean sea in 40
years, the French trans-Atlantic
steamer General Chanzv crashed at
full speed, in the dead of night, on the
treacherous reefs near the Island of
Minorca, and all except one of 'the 15
persons on board perished.
Ihe sole survivor is an Algerian cus
toms official, Marcel Bode), who was
rescued by a fisherman and who lies to
night in thehospital at Ciudadela, rav
ing, as a result of the tortures through
which he passed and unable to give an
account of the disaster.
In the ship's company there were 87
passengers, of whom SO were first
cabin. The crew numbered 70. It is
thought that there were no Americana
on board.
The ship was in command of Captain
Cayol, one of the most careful officers
of the line. In his lone experience he
had never met with an accident. He
had intended to retire from the service
soon.
Passengers of the Chamy were most
ly officers and officials returning to
their posts in Algeria, accompanied by
their wives and children : a few boI-
diers, some Italians and Turks and one
priest.
The only Anglo-Saxon names on the
passenger list were Green and Stakelv.
They were members of an opera troupe
of 1 1 that had been engaged to sing at
the casino in Algiers.
Among the victims of the wreck was
the celebrated music-hall sincrer. Fran
cis Dufor, as well as other prominent
music-hall favorites.
The General Chancy struck at 9
o'clock Thursday night, after Captain
Cayol, with all his experience, had
been unable to cope with the tempest
of almost unprecedented violence.
Other ships in the neighborhood had
safely ridden out the storm, but the
Chanzy fell prey to the elements, was
lifted off her course through the Ba
learic archipelago and brought on the
coast of Majorca, near Ciudadela.
Fishermen at daybreak picked up

REVISED BIBLE IS READY.
Task of 38 Years Ended by London
Scholars.
London, Feb. 12. Bible students
are keenly interested in the announce
ment of a new edition of a revised ver
sion of the New Testament, with full
marginal references. The task has ta
ken 88 years, having been begun in
1871 by the late Dr. Frederick H.
Scrivener and the late Professor Moul-
ton. The revised version published in
1898 contained onyly abridged referen
ces.
In recent years Drs. J. H. Moulton
and A. W. Greenup have been engaged
in completing the work. To many
verses of gospel and epistles they have
added nearly 100 marginal references,
each bearing upon the text or meaning
of the verse.
"I often worked 10 to 13 hours
day during my vacations," said Dr.
Greenup, today. "To aid me I had
large sheets printed with gospel text
in large type and the amplest margins,
On these I compiled a list of referen
ces. Reference to a single verse oc
cupied me, from first to last, 13 years,
returning to it, aa I did, over and over
again.
"The publication will take place in a
few days and I presume the Bible stu
dents throughout the world will want
the new work."
