Boat Capsizes, Throwing Occupants
Into the Swift Running Stream,
and Sweeps Them to Death.
Sacramento, Cal., Aug. 21. Four
people, two of whom are believed to
be residents of Oakland, met death
by drowning here yesterday after
noon In the Sacramento river, 300
yards above the confluence of that
stream with the American river.
Two bodies have since been recov
ered. Two of the victims of the
treacherous current were drowned
In an attempt to rescue the other
two.
Charles Palm and a girl whose
Identity Is unknown, arrived here
yesterday with the Intention of
spending their vacation with rela
tives on a boathouse. The lad of
17 years and the girl who came
here with him, said to be his cousin,
had crossed to the Yolo side of the
river In a duck-boat. As they were
about to disembark the bow of the
boat was carried under the flooring
of the houseboat. The current is
strong at this point and In a moment
the boat had capsized.
Mrs. Charles White, the sister of
Palm, was alone In the houseboat at
the time and it Is believed that
hearing the cries of Palm and his
companion as they struggled In the
water, she ran from the cabin and
jumped into the river In the hope
of effecting a rescue. The shrieks of
Palm and the girl were also heard
by Emanuel Orlgs, a fisherman who
lived In another houseboat a short
distance down the river. Grigs ran
along the bank to the White house
boat, whore he saw the three strug
gling together In the water. With
out stopping to remove his boots ha
dove In after them. He succeeded
In getting hold of the two women
and was scarcely a stroke from the
houseboat when he uttered an agon
ising shriek and sank beneath the
water with the two women, who had
been clinging to him.
Mrs. White was about 20 years
old and had many friends on the
Yolo side of the river. At tne time
of the disaster her husband was ab
sent on a fishing trip. Charles Palm
operated a moving picture machine
In the Novelty Theater, Oakland. His
companion, who was apparently not
more thau 16, Is Raid to have been
an actress of the bay region.
Auto Plunge Out Kinlmiikmenr.
Martinez, Cal., Aug. 21. An au
tomobile driven by Dr. C. L. Ab
bott, Coroner of Contra CoRta
county, and also containing Miss
Gertrude Roberts, ran over a 25
foot embankment at Olen Frazer,
near here, yesterday afternoon. Both
occupants were painfully Injured.
The car turned turtle, pinning both
under It. Or. Abbott managed to
extricate himself, but the full weight
of the machine rested on Miss Rob
erta' right leg, holding her fast until
Dr. Abbott procured a lever and man
aged to pull her from under the
wreck. The leg Is not broken, but
the knee Joint Is so badly sprained
that the young woman will not be
able to walk for a mouth. Both Dr.
Abbott and Miss Roberts returned to
their homes in Klchmoud.
FRENCH RKI'l I.ME ARAnS,
Suffer Heavy Losses In Attack on
General I 'mile's Forces.
Casa Blanca, Aug. 21. Another
fierce attack by the Arabs was made
upon General Drude's French forces
that are stationed In the outskirts of
the city yesterday. A horde of the
besieging natives swooped down upon
the encampment, but the French
were ready for them, and the Arabs
were driven back with terrible loss
of life. The Arabs are poorly
equipped for the fanatical warfare
they are waging, and they cannot
eope with the trained soldiers of
Franc.

EXT DAY EVILS I.N SPEECH
AT PKOVIXCETOWN.
Declares That Criminals Should Be
Punished, Whether He lie
Rich or Poor.
Provlncetown, Mass., Aug. 21.
Through a lane of mighty battle
ships, the thunders of whose salute
rang out over the bay for miles, the
Government yacht Mayflower entered
Provlncetown harbor yesterday,
bringing President Roosevelt to the
spot where the Pilgrims first stepped
on the soil of the new world and In
whose memory a beautiful monument
bad Its Inception In the laying of the
corner stone yesterday.
The corner stone exercises were in
charge of the Massachusetts Grand
Commandery of the Masons, and the
ritual was conducted by J. Henry
Blake. James Bryce, the British
Ambassador, offered the congratula
tions of the mother country. Other
speakers Included Governor Guild,
Senator Lodge and the officers of the
town and the monument association.
The monument, when completed.
will be one of the most beautiful of
the many historic memorials in the
vicinity of Boston. Its purpose Is
U mark the place where the Pil
grims finished their long voyage,
and where they drew up their his
toric pact In the cabin of the ancient
Mayflower, and where a few of them
first landed on American soil.
After paying a glowing tribute to
the Pilgrim Fathers and their de
scendants. President Roosevelt at
tacked with his characteristic vigor
the problems of the present day.
He said In part: "Experience has
shown that it Is necessary to exercise
far more efficient control than at
present over the business use of
those vast fortunes, chiefly corpor
ate, which are used (as under mod
ern conditions they almost Invariably
are) In Interstate business. When
the constitution was created none of
the conditions of modern business
existed. They are wholly new and
we must create new agencies to deal
effectively with them. There is no
objection In the minds of this peo
ple to any man's earning any amount
of money If he does It honestly and
fairly, If he gets It as the result of
special BklU and enterprise, as a re
ward of ample service actually
rendered. But there Is a growing
determination that no man shall
amass a great fourttme by special
prlvllego, by chicanery and wreng
dolng, so far as It Is In the power
of legislation to prevent; and that
the fortune when amassed shall not
have a business use that Is anti
social. Most large corporations do
a business that Is not confined to any
one State. Experience has shown that
the effort to control these corpora
tions by mere State action cannot
produce wholesome results. In moat
cases such effort falls to correct the
real abuses of which the corporation
Is or may be guilty; while In other
rases the effort Is apt to causa either
hardship to the corporation Itself or
else hardship to neighboring States
which have not tried to grapple with
the problem In the same manner,
and, of course, we must be as scrupu
lous to safeguard the rights of the
corporations as to exact from them
In return a full measure of Justice
to the public. I believe in a national
Incorporation law for corporations
engaged in interstate business. I
believe furthermore that the need for
action Is most pressing is regards
those corporations which, became
they are common carriers, exercise a
quasi-public function; ar.l which tan
be completely controlled, In all re
spects by the Federal Government,
by the exercise of the power con
ferred under the Interstate commerce
clause, and, If necessary, under the
poastroad clause of the constitution.
During the last few years w hive
taken marked strides n advance
along the road to proper regulation
of these railroad corporations, but we
must not stop In the work. Th
National Government should exercise
over them a similar supervision and
control to that which it exercises i
over national banks. We can do this
only by proceeding farther along the I
lines marked out by the recent na
tional legislation.
"In dealing with those who offend
against the anti-trust and Interstate
commerce laws the Department of
Justice has to encounter many and
great difficulties. Often men who
have Veen guilty of violating the
laws have really acted la criminal

fashion, and If possible should be
proceeded against criminally; and
therefore It Is advised that there
should be a clause In these laws pro
viding for such criminal action and
for punishment by Imprisonment as
well as by fine. But, as Is well
know, In a criminal action the law
Is strictly construed In favor of the
defendant, and in our country, at
least, both Judge and Jury are far
more inclined to consld r his rights
than they are the Interests of the
general public; while In addition It Is
always true that a man's general
practices may be so bad that a civil
action will lie when It may be not
possible to convict him of any one
criminal act. There is unfortunately
a certain number of our fellow-countrymen
who seem to accept the view
that unless a man can be proved
guilty of Borne particular crime he
shall be counted a good citizen, no
matter how Infamous the life he has
led, no matter how prenlclous his
doctrines or his practices. This Is
the view announced from time to
time with clamorous Insistence, now
by a group of predatory capitalists,
now by a group of slnster anar
chistic leaders and agitators, when
ever a special champion of either
class, no matter how evil his general
life. Is acquitted of some one specific
rrtme. Such a view Is wicked whether
applied to capitalist or labor leader,
to rich man or poor man."
