Government and Red Cross Taking
Measures for Relief of Sufferers
WASHINGTON. Aug. 19. Information
reaching the War Department today In
dicated that tho army dead from tho
Gulf storm at Texxas City will not total
more than 10, despite earlier reports that
55 Midlers had been drowned.
Camp Crockett, where 5000 men of tho
Eth Brigade were In cantonment, was
. naihed clear of tents and is a scene of
desolation.
A soldier wns found dead last night
under a tin roof at Galveston.
W. P. Stewart, United States weather
observer at Galveston, Is given credit for
having saved moro lives than any other
asency except tho sea wall. He sent roo
tcrcycles in , every direction down tho
Island for a distance of SO miles, warn
ing them they would dlo If they did not
come to Galveston. In consequence, theie
were probably only 200 persons left on tho
Island below Galveston. Tho llfesaving
station at Surfslde, Texas, is reported to
bavo been demolished.
Tht city of Galveston is under martial
lw, and soldiers walk tho streets armed
to prevent depredations. Tuesday morn
ing several jewelry stores, saloons and
other business houses wero looted before
the patrol was organized. No looters havo
been killed, but several havo been stopped
at gun point.
A dispatch from Galveston says: Mrs.
TVllhdmlna I learn was washed away
from her sons and daughters as they
were trying to curry her to safety atter
her house had collapsed. Her body was
recovered. Tho body of a baby only
a few months old lias laid In a morgue
for J6 hours, with nobody to claim it.
Prompt measures for the relief of tho
sufferers have been tuken. The National
Hed CrobS has wired Its representatives
at New Orleans and on tho border to get
Into touch with the stricken district and
Elvo any needed relief.
Major General Dell has gone to Texas
City and taken chargo of the rellof work
there. He has been authorized by Acting
Secretary of War Breckenrldgo to pur
chase all needed supplies and the depot
Quartermaster at New Orleans has been
directed to send forward foodstuffs and
camp equipment to replace that wrecked
by the storm.
It Is learned that army transports now
In New York will bo loaded with supplies
and sent to Galveston at once. The food
will be distributed to tho civilians In the
nooded region If needed and If not will
"o retained for army use.
The War Department was trying to get
additional details of tho Galveston situa
tion by wireless today, while the revenue
cutter service was rushing a vessel from
-ey West to tho scene. The transport
wcciellan drifted off In the storm and Is
ashore on Pelican Island badly damaged,
ine big Kllpatrlck and the Cushlng are
Mo and can be used for the relief work,
according to the wireless from General
Bell,
.ftlal law has been proclaimed at Port
Arthur, which was caught by the full

Inches.
The bureau was sending- flood warnings

FEAR OF FALLS TOOK
HIM TO DEATH IN RIVER
Not Daring to Shoot Treacher
ous Lambertville Falls, Min
ister Relaunched Canoe,
Which Overturned
FAMILIAR WITH DANGERS
With Son Who Accompanied Him on
Fatal Trip He Had Traversed
Delaware Before
Lack of confidence Is ascribed by friends
today as tho cause of tho death of tho
Ilcv. H. McKnlght Moore, who wns
drowned In tho Dclawaro River yesterday
when his ennoe struck a submerged rock
and upset In tho Lambertville Falls.
Doctor Mooro took the same trip In the
summer of 1913, nnd nccordlug to a friend
who accompanied him, ho did not tnke
his ennoe out of tho water during tho
entire length of the dangerous voynge,
even to nold tho dangerous rapids and
falls in which many canoeists hod been
drowned during tho snmo season.
Ycsteiduy, according to reports, Doctor
Mooic expressed n fear about going
iluough tho Wells Falls nt Lambertville
nnd took his canoe out. Together with
his son Ilnrry, who paddled In tho bow
on tho trip, ho carrltd thu ennou below
tho falls nnd launched It. Tho pair set
out for tho middle of the stream and It
In thought that the rushing torrent below
the falls caught the light craft up before
the occupants were ready and hurled
them on a rook. Doth wero thrown Into
tho water, Mr. Mooro coming up In .1
dazed condition. Ho made no effort to
save himself, uccordlng to the dispatch.
TU'fore assistance had arrived from other
members of the party ho was torn from
tho grasp of his son, who had sought to
bavo him.
Tho sceno of tho drowning wns but a
few miles above Trenton. In tho other
two canoes which came to tho rcscuo of
Mr. Mooro wcro his other son, Jamcy.
nnd John Fine, Jr., students at tho Hnv
crford School; and Harold nnd .Tunica
Follows, sons of Dr. A. P. Fellows, of
400G Chestnut street. Tho party had
been camping along tho route, but had
stnyed the night prior to the accident nt
a hotel In Lambertville.
Just two years before. Doctor Mooro
had shot the rapids and passed through
safely.
This year's trip was started at Deposit.
Tho trip before was started at Hancock,
Nr Y., which is situated approximately at
tho source of the river. On the trip, which
Included falls, rifts, rapids, eddies nnd
whirlpools that would tux tho skill nnd
strength of tho most expert canoeist, Mr.
Mooie several times expressed tho fear
of being overturned on account of his
weight. Threo times he hesitated about
going on. saving that ho would rather
carry tho cunoc around and launch it be
low tho whlillng waters. The places that
Doctor Moore expressed his fear of were
Skinners' Falls, a bad stretch of water,
rushing over gigantic rocks; tho famous
Foul Rift, Just above Huston, In which
four canoeists wcro drowned that year,
and tho Lambertville Falls, In which he
was drowned yesterday. At each of theso
places, except the Foul Rift, he was per
suaded by other members of tho party
to shoot the falls.
At tho Foul Rift that year tho party
was warned ngnlnst passing through.
The other members of tho party said they
would go through the fulls and Mr. Moore
also consented. Half way through tho
torient Doctor Mooro's canoo struck a
rook on tho edge of a whirlpool nnd up
set. Doctor Mooro nnd his son, Harry,
kept tho craft near tho rock, und it was
saved from turning completely over. Tho
two other canoe3 turned around In tho
whirling torrent, nnd after a strugglo,
paddled back to tho rescue. Tho canon
was balled out nnd the Journey was con
tinued. FRAN Iv'S MOTHER FORGIVES

Praises Son's Purity
NEW YORK. Aug. 19. Mrs Rudolph
Frank today forgave the Georgia mob
that lynched her son. Leo M. Frank.
Only a few hours after her son's body
had been brought here for burial Mrs.
Frank received reporters for the first

"It's all over," she said, sadly, "and we
want to be left alone, but as Leo once
said of his mallgncrs:
" 'Tho Nazareno Bald, God forgive them
for they know not what they do,' and I
accept his words. Some day they will
know those men who killed him.
"Now that Leo's body Is with us we
feel that wo ought to Bo left alono with
our grief. But It is not my boy that
is here. It Is only the house, not the
spirit. The spirit has been called to God.
"My boy never told a He. Ho never did
a mean thing in hla life. Ho was as pure
as he was on the day he was born. The
remembrance of Leo's faith In God Is
all that remains to us. God has given
me strength with which to bear this or
deal Just as He gave strength to Leo.
"There was never a day that my boy
did not write to me. He wad always
thinking of me, but his was a quiet dis
position. As a boy, when given a book,
he would go off by himself for hours at a

DAVE LANE INSISTS
MAYORALTY HARMONY
WILL BE ACHIEVED
Smith Still in Field Despite Ap
pointment by Brumbaugh to
Public Service Commis
sion, Says Chairman
GOVERNOR INDORSED HIM
Ut a Stuff Correspondent
ATLANTIC CITV. N. J., Aiig. 19.
Thero will bo no factional light In tho
Republican orgiinlziitlon In the Mayoralty
contest this year, and that both tho Vitro
and MoNIchol factions will bo united be
hind n "hnrmony" candidate, was Indl
nifcd by David II. Lane, chairman of
the Republican City Committee, In nn
Interview today. Mr. Lnno declared that
all tho Organisation lendcis had agreed
upon former Postmaster Thomas 13.
Smith as tho "hnrmony" candidate, and
Intimated that, dcsplto Smith's appoint
ment to tho Public Service Commission,
be may yet be the Organization candi
date. The "sage of the Organization, '
nflrr tolling of tho ngreeme.it on Smith,
declined to dluouts personalities, but ho
gave tho Impiesslon that Congressman
William S. Vale la not to oe consldeiod
us ,i possible harmony candidate.
Mr. Luno said that tho basis for h(s
confidence that tho Organization UTdois
will unite behind a "harmony" candidate
Is "conversations" ho has had with tho
leaders during tho last. few days and tho
fact that slnco the Orsanlzatton bosses
hud been able to agree upon Smith, they
will continue to bo for harmony, mid the
selection of tho candidate, should It not
be tho former postmaster, can bo easily
worked outiby them. His statenfent that
Smith had been agreed upon prior to bis
appointment by Governor Hrumhmigli
to tho Public Service Commission showei
tho appointment to have been the frame
up that bus been charged and that the
appointment wns made In order to put
the gubernatorial stamp of approval upon
the Organization candidate.
"I was greatly relloved," said Mr. Lnue.
when tho leaders all Ilnally ngrced upon
Mr. hmlth us tho cnndldnto behind whom
tlicy would unite. No formal agreement
was made, but thcro was the understand
ing that Mr Smith was acceptable to tho
ure.s and McNIchoI."
When ho was reminded that tho corre
spondence that passed between Governor
Ilrumbaugh and Mr. Smith, when tho ap
pointment was made, was generally be
lieved to havo been a blunder on tho part
of tho Organization, he bald:
GOVERNOR'S PREDICAMENT
"Ono must remember that tho corre
spondence would have tho morul effect
of putting tho executive slump of ap
proval upon Mr. Smith, as a mull capable
und lltted to b Mayor. No ono will deny
that n man capable of being a Public
Servlco Commissioner is capable of being
Mayor. Before Mr. Smith was appointed
Publlu Servlco Commissioner, he wns not
generally known among tho voters, but
his appointment bus shown them that ho
has tho ability to fulfil tho duties of any
high ofllco.
The cxpcrlenco of four years ugo will
cuuse the organization leaders to con
tinue to agree upon n harmony candidate,
ho said. They showed tho Inclination to
avoid u fight when they ngiccd upon
Smith, ho continued, and ho added that ho
has every reason to believe that they
ure still In the sumo frame of mind.
Tho criticism that has followed the
manner In which tho appointment of
Smith wus announced hns not entirely
put Smith out of consideration, -although
It may yet do so, he Intimated.
"Time alone will decide that," ho said.
EXPECTS VARE WITHDRAWAL
He also Intimated that tho Organization
leaders expect that Congressman Vuro
will Ilnally withdraw from tho contest In
tho Interest of harmony.
