HESPERIAN SINKS, TWO
DIE FROM EXPOSURE
Continued from Tage One
gers lnndcd at Queenstown are reported
to be unanimous In their declaration that
the Hesperian was attacked without
warning.
One passenger, C. 8. Blue, of Ottnwa,
Can , member of tho Hansard Parlia
mentary Corps, declared he heard tho
cry: "Submarine on the starboard quar
ter" Just beforo the steamship was
struck.
Oth irs said no submarine was sighted
that tho Hesperian was plowing along
thrpjgh tho dusk and that In all probabil
ity neither the periscope of a U-boat or
me nasi of an on-ruthlng torpedo would
have been visible.
The steamship wns proceeding slowly to
Queenstown, convojed by a flotilla of
rescue hlps, and the part of her crew who
remained aboard were taken off and
landed safely nt Queenstown.
Among the sun Ivors brought Into
Queenstown great praise was given to
tho offlcera and crow of the steamer.
Their coolness, precision and rapid work
were given the credit for tho absenco
of loss of life among tho passengers.
Immediately after sho was struck Cap
tain Main sent out the 8 O. S , and In
a remarkably short time several vessels
from the vicinity of Queenstown sur
rounded the Hesperian, while warships
hunted tho submarine. Tho rescue ships
qulcki picked up the passengers float
ing abtf.it In the lifeboats.
Mrs. Clements, of Toronto, who was .
putting her children to bed when the
Hesperian, bound from Liverpool to Mon
treal, was struck, told ono of the most
striking stories of tho catastrophe. She
said:
"It already was dark, which perhaps
nccounts for nobody seeing tho torpedo.
Most of the passengers were attending a
concert. I wns In my cabin, putting the
two children to bed, when I felt a ter
rible shock.
"As thcro have been so many similar
occurrences like this, I knew Immediately
we had seen torpedoed. I grabbed up the
two chr.drcn nnd hurried on deck.
"Already tho work of lowering the
boats was going on. I saw a group of
women climbing Into a boat, but there
was no room In that ono for me.
LOWERED INTO BOATS.
"I was among tho last to get Into a
boat, I and the children being lowered
into an already floating lifeboat, by ropes
around our waists,
"Thcro was very little excitement and
no hysteria. The quartermaster was tho
real hero of the ship. He continually
went f:om group to group, assuring us
calmly that there wns no danger nnd his
coolness cast a spell over us, making us
feel that we really were not In danger.
"When our boat cast off, It was then
11 o'clock, two hours and to minutes after
wo wcro struck nnd by thnt tlmo most all
of tho passengers had been picked up."
The two Americans Included In tho
cmw are F. I. Dallas, of Buffalo, and M
McAllister, of Grand Rapids. Both were
landed yesterday, and told tho Ameri
can Consul they were the only Ameri
cans on tho ship.
"Tho steerage passengers "had all gone
to bed," said Dallas, a steerage steward
"I was at my work when I heard a tre
mendous noise, and tlje ship trembled
from sttm to stern. Immediately all tho
women nnd children in the steerage ran
Into the nlleywas In their night cloth
lng, and we had a hard time calming
them.
"Three of the lifeboats capsized whilo
being lowered and several passengers
were spilled Into tho water."

Public Service Commissioner Thomas B.

KILLS PRETTY SISTER;
WANTED TO SAVE HER
HONOR, HE DECLARES
Remorse Seizes John Aviglione,
Who Is Accused by Relatives
of Yielding to Jeal
ous Anger
GIRL DISOBEYED HIM
Remorse today Alls John Aviglione, 27
years old, who killed his younger sister,
Antolnotte, because, he says, ho wished
to preserve her honor. He was held 'with
out ball by Magistrate Pennock. His mo
tive was questioned by relatives, who
averred that Jealous anger prompted him
to shoot her down.
Tho tragedy occurred In the crowded
tenement at 733 Fltzwatcr street, where
the brother and sister lived. Tho girl
died at the Pennsylvania Hospital an
hour after the shooting. She wns un
able to recognize Aviglione, who pleaded
with her tor forgiveness.
Antoinette, a pretty 23-5 car-old girl, was
talking to one of her admirers In front
of the door last night when Aviglione
came home. He angrily ordered her to
go to her room, but instead sho went
to the rooms of her cousin, Donato Cos
tellano. Her brother followed and slapped
her as he administered a lecturo on her
associates. Then he left the room, a res
olute look on his face.
Returning In a few minutes with a re
volver in his hand, he found tho girl
sitting on a couch between two of the
Costellano children, crlng bitterly. He
calmly raised the revolver and fired.
Antoinette fell with a bullet In her
temple. He fired again, twice, and fled
when Costellano was aroused by the
shooting. Aviglione was captured by
Policeman Fltzmorrls, of the 2d nnd
Christian streets station.
Relatives declared that Aviglione had
no reason for being opposed to tho girl's
actions, as her reputation was spotless,
bho cume to this country eight months
ago to live with her brother.
Witnesses at the hearing at tho Cen
tral Station today said the prisoner not
only slapped his slater but kicked her.
He then left the house and, according
to Lieutenant Noon, of tho 2d and Chris
tian streets station, went directly to a
store on 6th street and purchased a re
volver nnd 12 cartridges. He returned to
tho houso and shot the girl.
Magistrate Pennock committed the
brother to await the action of the Coro-
ner.

DEATH MOTIVE SOUGHT
IN TELLER'S ACCOUNTS
AFTER BANK TRAGEDY
Manayunk National Bank Offi
cials Confident Young Man
Did Not Embezzle Funds
of Institution
MOURNED CHUM'S DEATH
Bank examiners and officials of the
Mnnnyunk National Bank, started nn ex
amination of the books of Samuel Newell,
tho receiving teller, todny In an effort to
find a motive for his suicide on Saturday.
Nenell wns found In the basement of tho
bank, n bullet hole through his head and
a revolver blng at his feet.
The police havo been unable to discover
a motlvo for tho man's net.
R. Bruce Wallace, cashier of the bank,
said today that the officials of the bank
were practically certain that Newell did
not default with any of tho bank funds.
As far as the examination ha proceeded
nil of the accounts of the dead man have
been found In perfect order As several
of the higher officials of the Institution
were out of the city todny It was de
cided to wait until tomorrow to open tho
vault.
A note written by Newell to his mother,
shortly before he committed suicide, did
not disclose a motive, according to Mr
Wallace, who personally delivered the
letter.
"I did not rend tho letter," he said,
"but I was informed of Its contents
Newell wrote directions about his funeral,
and also Instructed his mother how to
dispose of his effects.
"There wns nothing In the letter thnt
would throw any light upon the reasons
for his act. I am also equally positive
that conditions at the bank will not fur
nish a motive because wUh the numerous
insiectlons and other checks put upon
emplojes of tho bank It is Impossible for
any one to default with a large sum
"Newell had no expensive habits and
wns strictly a 'home' man He wa ad
mired and respected by all of the officers
and directors of the bank."

York Athletic Club Lukens had rowed a
magnificent race, holding the lead from
the start and the crowd of rooters on tno

Six scullers were on the mark when the
Judge's gun popped and the race started.
Lukcns took the lead and nlthough row
ing In rough water and with a northeast
wind blowing steadily In his path kept

river. Lukcns led all tho way, with
Hannegan closely following. Near the
Island tho under man Increased his stroke
and won by four lengths. The decision
of the Judges was a severe blow, as thfs
meant an auspicious start.
Bill Hart, the big sculler of the Metro
politan Rowing Club, of New York, was
the only man to finish In tho HO-pound
class of senior scullers. Opposed to him
were George Allison, of the West Phila
