Detroit, May 4.—Three vessels lost, one of them with her crew of seven men, and a fourth craft found fioat- ing deserted on Lake Michigan, with the fate of her crew unknown, is the day’s summary of disaster from storm and ice on the Great Lakes. On the rocky shores of Huron Isl- and the schooner George Nester of Detroit was torn to pieces by the gale that swept over Lake Superior. All of her crew of seven were lost. Goes to the Bottom. On Lake Huron, lashed by the same gale, the package freighter Russia of Port Huron succumbed to the waves after her cargo had shifted, and went to the bottom. The Russia’s crew of twenty-two men succeeded in safely putting off in their small boats and escaping. On Lake Michigan the’ Ann Arbor railway car ferry No. 1 picked up, nineteen miles south of Fox Island, the big steel lighter Batavia, deserted by her crew and with no positive evi- dence as to whether they perished or were taken off the lighter of the steamer which is believed to have been towing her. Face Great Perils. To these fresh stories of marine disaster with the arrival at Sault Ste. Marie of the crew of the steamer Aurania, there was added the first story of how the Aurania was crushed by the ice and sank, and how the crew made a perilous way over nearly four miles of ice floe to the steamer J. H. Bartow. Few days in the history of nayiga- tion on the inland lakes have brought such tales of death and disaster. 200 Dead in South. Memphis, Tenn., May 4.—The latest reports from the storm-swept districts in the South place the number of dead at 200 and the number of injured at over 700. Complete statistics will probably show a death list of 250, with nearly 1,000 persons injured. At least forty towns have been devas- tated. The property loss will amount to many million dollars. Some sections in the pathway of the storm have not yet been heard from, and they will, in all probability, add their quota to the list of casualties and of property loss. Tennessee bore the brunt of the storm, and the cas- ualties in that state are very heavy. TAKES 10,000 TONS OF IRON. || E. L. Townsend First Ore Carrier Out of Duluth. Duluth, May 4.—The E. L. Town- left Duluth last evening with 10,000 tons of iron “ore for Cleveland. It was mined by the Mahoning mine of the Cambria Steel company at Hib- bing. The Townsend was the first ore car- rier to Jeave the Head of the Lakes. More will follow in a few days. Re- ceipts from the mines at the docks at the Head of the Lakes are: Allouez, $0,000 tons; Duluth, 135,000; Two’ Har- bors, 100.000. ATTACKS ANTI-PASS LAW. INinois Central Fights Act in Des Moines Court. Des Moines, May 4. — The Illinois Central railroad attacked the lowa anti-pass law, when Judge W. S. Ken- yon, general counsel for the railroad in Iowa, filed with the Iowa supreme court a brief attacking the law as un- constitutional. He attacks specifically that portion of the law w h compels attorneys to devote their whole time to the road’s business to be entitled to passes. Gambling Offender Rearrested. Minot, N. D., May 4. — Offenders against the gambling laws in Minot are not secure from punishment after being convicted in the city court. Ted- dy Brunner, recently convicted of hav- ing gambling apparatus, who was fined $10 and costs in the city court, was rearrested on a state’s warrant charg- ing him with the same offense. Shot and Not Believed. Waterloo, Iowa, May 4. — Theodore Duffy, twenty-four years old, was found on the street last night with a bullet wound in his leg. Duffy says he was shot by two highwaymen, who relieved him of $6. The police are working on the theory that Duffy was shot while in a nearby building. Boat Upsets; Four Drown. Coshocton, Ohio, May 4. — Swollen by heavy rains, the Tuscarawas river claimed four victims yesterday, and two others, almost dead from exhaus- tion, were rescued, when a motor boat, in which six men were riding, was capsized. Killed by a Car. Birmingham, Ala., May 4—Mrs. Ww. E. Leadford of Powderly was instant- Jy killed and her child fatally injured ‘by a Bessemer electric car yesterday at Elyton, INDORSE LOCK TYPE OF CANAL Songepssional Party Return From In- spection Enthusiastic Over Project. New York, May 4.—Further indorse- ment of the lock type of canal and as- surances of the stability of the Gatun dam were voiced here yesterday by members of the congressional party which returned on the steamer -Pan- ama after an unofficial inspection of the canal zone. Representative Michael F. Conroy of New York was emphatic in his ap- preciation of the educational value of the trip just concluded. “Manv of us,” he said, “left New York with the idea that the sea level system of canal construction should have been adopted. But after person- ally inspecting the great work and fa- miliarizing ourselves with the condi- tions on the isthmus all of us, I feel safe to say, return convinced that the lock system is the better of the two.” Representative William Darius Ja- mieson of Iowa added his indorsement to that of Mr. Conroy and said that the alarming reports circulated con- cerning the stability of the Gatun dam had no foundation. “We gave particular attention to this section of the canal work,” said he, “and I for one am satisfied that the dam is safe for all time.” teers AES PURE FOOD ACT IS UPHELD. Federal Court Rules “Mapline” Con stitutes Branding. Chicago, May 4. — Federal Judge Sanborn, in a test case, upheld the va- lidity of the pure food and drugs act. The case was that of the govern- ment against the Crescent Manufac- turing Company of Seattle, makers of “mapline.” The government alleged that tLe use of this name constituted misbranding, inasmuch as the substi- tute for maple syrup contained no maple juice. The defense aside from attacking the constitutionality of the law, alleged that the name was justi- fied by the flavor of the produce. The case will be appealed. FOUR LIONS ARE BAGGED. Roosevelt Brings Down Three and His Son One. Nairobi, East Africa, May 4.—Four lions are trophies of former President Roosevelt’s camp in the Mau hills, and the two hundred or more native followers are joining with the Amefi- can party in the ecelebration of the unsually good luck. The lions were bagged Saturday, and Col. Roosevelt’s mighty gun brought three of them to earth, each on the first shot. Thus one of the ex-president’s fond- est ambitions has been realized, and he is proud, too, that the fourth of the jungle kings fell before the rifle of his son, Kermit, who, however, took three shots to kill his quarry. Miners Have Close Call. Pittsburg, May 4.—Twenty-five men were at work in the Forest Hill mine of the Pittsburg Coal company at Smithdale, twenty three miles from here yesterday, when fire broke out between them and the mouth of the mine. Rescue parties were formed, but were driven back by the flames. The imprisoned men escaped through a rear entry, opened as an emergency exit. No one was injured. STATUE OF LONGFELLOW. Imposing Ceremonies in Washington to Mark Its Dedication. Washington, May 4.—A magnificent statue to the memory of Henry Wads- worth Longfellow, America’s most popular poet, will be dedicated with imposing cerémonies in this city on May 7. The occasion will be the more notable because of the presence of the president of the Unied States, mem- bers of the diplomatic corps, men dis- tinguished in letters and by practi: cally all Hving relatives of the poet. TRAIN IN RIVER; TWO DROWN. Two Railroad Men Lose Their Lives Near Orville, Mich. Saginaw, Mich., May 4. — Daniel Smith and Fred Smith, brothers, were drowned when a Grand Trunk work train on which they were employed broke through a bridge on the Cass river near Orrville.

Stops Buggy on Track and All Are Killed, Gary, Ind., May 4. — William Rose, his wife and two chilren, were killed in a collision of their buggy and an electric car on the Chicago, Lake Shore & South Bend Interurban line yesterday.

Ottawa, May 4. — Lawmakers of Canada yesterday learned that they have been exposed to smallpox. The ten-year-old son of Senator Comeau spent a day or two with his father in parliament. Yesterday he was found to have smallpox. Thirteen Years for Defaulter. Frankfort, Ky., May 4—Charles B.
