1 the east approach of the Jackson ^
ar
Boulevard bridge Sunday nigbf was in
resumed Monday by members of the
police force at the city fire boats. SI
They were aided in their efforts by sb
a diver in the employ of the city.
The identity of the victims, and the n
number of persons who lost their pl
lives, however, are still unknown.
V*1
It was at first thought that the Ul
ai
automobile belonged to James E. a)
Cosgrlff, of Salt Lake City, Utah, fr
who left the Congress hotel with a gj
party of friends a short time before w
the accident ocurred, on the way to p
the Union station, but it was later tJ
learned that the Cosgriff party was
safe and that the machine belonged ii
to J. W. Schreffler. It is said to be si
one of two machines he has for hire gi
and was in charge of Ernest Camp. r<
Mr. Schreffler was unable to locate ir
the car today, and feared that the t<
machine belonged to him. fc
The car, it is claimed, was hired
from the saloon of William Krae- a:
mer, on Van Buren street, but it j><
was impossible to learn who were the la
occupants. The car was traced by J;
Its number, 4250 Illinois?which was S
discovered by a driver during the si
night. y
The most plausible theory regard- a,
Ing the accident now is that Camp,
whnea ctanH ivac at Vftn Rnrpii street
and Michigan avenue, had been engaged
by a party to make a sight- P
seeing trip of the city and that
while on the way to the west sidt
of the city had driven the car intc
the river. Camp's home was in tht e<
south side and it was learned that w
his mother was expected here next Q(
week to livo with him.
The accident is similar to two pre- w
vious ones which have occurred here ^
within the last few years and which
resulted in the loss of four lives. ^
On August 17, 1904, a car containing
a woman and three men plunged
over the south abutment of the Rush
street bridge. All were rescued, but
one of the victims subsequently died ^
The following year a car containing t{
five persons went into the river at ^
the same bridge from the north side.
Three of the party were drowned. ^
The touring car plunged into tht n
river at Jackson boulevard from th* ?
east approach of the bridge shord}
after 10 o'clock Sunday night whilt w
the bridge was turned. A man and j
a woman were seen to come to tin
surface and float down-stream, tht {(
man endeavoring to save the woman p
by carrying her on his back. Aftei w
drifting more than a block both sank w
with last despairing cries for help. ^
That three others, perhaps foui tj
went down with the automobile it j,
the belief of the bridge tenders at a
the bridge at Jackson and at Vanburen
street and of other witnesses;
of the tragedy. The other victims,
it is believed, are under the machine
at the bottom of the river.
n
It was speeding at 25 miles an hour
and when it struck the water, dove
into the mud on the river bed, ^
The screams most clearly distin- T
guishable as the big car went over
are declared by witnesses to have
been those of women and the con- ^
viction was reached by them that
more than two of the occupants of
the automobile were women. The
Limousine prevented the occupants
being clearly discerned as the car
dashed up. 01
Dr. Adolph E. Bertling, who had ^
stopped in his automobile at the 3(
abutment of the bridge when he h
heard the signal for the bridge to
open, saw the accident. s'
"When the bridge opened,' said
Dr. Bertling, "I saw a big touring S(
oar approaching, but could not tell
how many occupants were in the car.
The driver failed to slow up and I
called frantically to him to stop.
Either he did not hear me, or he
could not stop the car, for a second ti
later the machine toppled over the T
edge of the abutment. Then I heard '?<
screams. >1
"I am certain that I saw two men
and a woman struggling in the wa- e<
ter. I ran for policemen, but could
find none. When I returned to the
scene the bodies that had come to
the surface had drifted down the tf
river and people on the passing boat m
had alarmed the bridge tenders, one v<
of whom threw out life preservers, cj
but it was too late." p<

M. Irby, was seriously, though
it necessarily fatally, shot by Part
Milam, a young white man, the
n of Jas. Milam of the county. The
tire load of shot from a double
irrel breech loader took effect in
e face and bead of Mr. Irby, fearlly
tearing the scalp and fracturg
the skull slightly. It is not
ought that any of the shot entered
e head and the chances of recovery
e good, although at this time It is
lpossible to state the outcome.
Young Milam was arrested by
leriff Owens a short while after the
looting; he wa^ met in the road
?ar his home. Milam is in jail
vaiting the result of the wounds,
is possible that bail will be apied
for before judge Ship.
It seems that there has been bad

family for some time. Sunday

Story of the Young Woman's Gal- in

fc
a Dark Alley. a(
There is great excitement at Cairo, la
Illnois, over the finding of the dead j<
body of a young white woman in a
dark alley of the city. Evidences tt
that the young woman, whose name w
was Annie Psl.cy, who worked in a
e:
dry goods s:o>e, fought terrifically ^
before succumbing to brutal assailants
Tuesday n'ght was disovarea M
Wednesday by the police in trying to ^
solve her murder. U
By means of bits of torn clothing ^
strewn along an alley, children lounJ
her disfigured body. These uule t<
tvidences of the girl's love fo- life tl
aud purity showed that she fought s<
against murderers for a ctty block P
or more. b
Her fight was destined to be a si
losing one. for the slayer had caro- ii
fully prepared a gag and heavy loth t'
bands with which her cries were sti- it
fled and her strength overcome. Miss lj
Pelley was a country girl of rather n
unusual strength and the police be- ti
lieve that more than one person at- d
tacked her. 1:
The victim of the crime was 24
years old. She went to Cairo a few m
months ago from Anna, 111., and was f:
living with a married sister. Be- t<
cause of her frequent habit of spending
the night with girl friends, no &
fear was felt by her relatives when fl
Miss Pelley failed to return home a
the night before. 1
She was on her way to take a car a
for hohie from work in a dry goods
store when last seen by friends, and i:
early in the evening, probably 12 il
hours before the body was found, 1<
Miss Pelley had with her 11 yards g
of red cloth for a dress, and an al- h
ligator hand bag, both of whLch t
are missing. Her parasol was found b
bent and the handle was missing, i"
The band used by the assailant re- e
8embles a slip noose and may have b
been thrown about the girls nock b
like a laseo. The gag had been b
carefully prepared from a towel. b
Four negroes, one a woman, were
arrested and placed in jail. Different t
bloodhounds followed a trail to the p
woman's home on eight successive t
trails. b
Mayor George Parsons offered a v
reward of $1,000 for conviction of i
the slayer, and a fund is subscrib- t
ing by citizens. e
The latest evidence indicates that t
Miss Pelley was attacked in front of e
her home and dragged nearly a block
and a half to the alley. o

MEDICAL EXPERTS BAFFLED. d

By the Strange Case of a Young Man j1
of Virginia. '
g
A Richmond dispatch says medi- i
cal experts are interested in the t
case of nineteen-year-old Aubrey
Wilson, of Nottoway county, Virginia,
who is totally blind in the
day but can see like a cat in the I
dark.
This young man can speed a bi
cyme wnen tne nignt is so aarK mac
ordinary people have to walk with t
caution, but in the day he gropes e
about, able only vaguely to dietin- ^
guish any object, and with no dis- j
crimination as to colors. v
Because of his peculiar Infirmity, e
tho young man is notod as a "possum
hunter." He can distinguish e
the aniamls in the trees In the dark
as readily as a dog can follow the a
scent. a
All his life Wilson has suffered ^
from this defect. He says it grows
out of too much light entering the s
eye. It is called the "albino eye,"
he says. A

AN OLD WAR RELIC

LMBEDED IN A WALL
Tilch Had Probably Been Shot Into
Atlanta From Sherman's Batteries ]
When He Bombarded That City.
A loaded bombshell, weighing 10

workmen, imbeded in the brick

The Journal says Tom Walker was (
le negro whose pick unearthed the j
ar-like relic. It amused him until ?
e turned it over and saw the brass 1
tploding cap, but then he precipl- <
itely vacated the premises. i
Later he told a carpenter about it, f
[r. J. E. Gryder by name, and Mr. .
ryder thought it would make a
ice mantelpiece ornament for his 1
ttle home but after poking it over, ,
e decided be would "pass it up." j
The contracting engineers refused .
> let the thing lie around where ;
ley were working, so it was pre?nted
as a precious gift to Mr. J.
'. Hunter, proprietor of a near-beer
aloou, at No. 11 North Forsyth
Lrcet. Mr. Hunter bravely kept it
1 an iron safe, behind the bar for
R'o whole days, but the weight of
s 10 pounds began to weigh heavi- ,
r upon his conscience, and he comlenced
to feel that he owed a cerain
duty to his wife and family,
espite the fact that his life is heavif
insured.
So he tried to give it to a friend

riend looked it over, and begged
a be excused.

'he derned old thing belongs to you,
nyway."
So a reporter was sent to take it
a charge and write a "story" about
t. When the reporter got there and
aoked it over he wished he had been
:iven some other assignment, but as
ie hugged the 19 pounds of annihilation
tightly, tenderly to his
osom, with his finger nails dug into
ts rusty metallic sides, and staggerd
back toward The Journal office,
ie could not help thinking how much
etter a "story" it would make if
ie should happen to. drop it on the
lard brick pavement.
The city editor didn't take kindly
o the idea, however, the lady reiorter
shivered, and the staff phoographer
refused pointblank to snap
lis camera at it. Even the jokeniter
who had first offered to take
t and use it for a sinker the next
ime he went fishing for perch, *ackd
out when he saw it and pleaded
hat the piscatorial season had clos
d-.
Happily, however, The Journal has
ne dyed-in-the-wool hero, a Spanishimerican
war veteran who regards
leath-dealing implements of warare
as mere children's toys, and
le saved the situation by aaceptng
the bombshell to use as a paperweight
on his desk. He even sug;ested
wearing it on his watch fob,
