Washington, Dec. 3.—While the re

public galleries were filled with per
sons anxious to hear the reading of the

Belle Vernon, Pa., Dec. -2.—No man

will be removed from the mine and the

Tremendous Sea
Over Decks of Mount
< Temple.
Halifax. Dec. 3.—Six hundred and
thirty passengers and a crew of 54 had
a remarkable escape from death w hen
the Pacific steamship Mount Temple,
bound from Antwerp to St. John, N. B.,
struck* on the rocks of LaHave Iron
Bound Island. Although they were in
great peril for many hours and sub
jected to the exposure of the cold, not
one of them wn* lost.
The Mount Temple went on the reef
while a terrific snow storm raged. The
snow was so thick that It was Impos
sible to see half a length ahead. The
liner went miles out of .her course. As
she grounded a tremendous sea washed
over her decks, smashing the boats and
leaving only half of them fit for r~rvlce,
but no boat could have lived in that
sea anyway.'
Captain Boothby determined to try
landing the passengers by a basket
rigged by a breeches buoy from the
ship's rail to the top of the cliff.
A brave crew’ manned one ot the
boats and with superhuman efforts at
last succeeded In getting a cable from
the ship to the shore at the foot of the
cliff. Hour after hour this work went
on and when the saven hours had
passed the 630 men, women and chil
dren and crew of 64 were on the Island.

Mrs. Bradley Pallid.
In her chair, her form bent, her face
pallid, her bosom heaving, sat the cen
tral figure In one of the most dismal
dramas ever portrayed upon life's great
stage. ' It was the fragile figure of An
nie M. Bradley. Not the vigorous wom
an of halcyon days, when she charmed
with her brilliant Intellect and capti
vated with her beauty—but the Annie
Bradley of today, a woman aged be
fore her time, a shrinking, pitiful, deso
late shadow of her former self.
At last the little acts of court for
mality were over. Clerk Hawkins
opened the verdict. Clearly, deliber
ately. but with a peculiar tremor In his
voice, he read the words, "We the Jury
find the defendant, Annie M. Bradley,
L.it gMllty."
Sighs of Relief.
There was a stir, a hundred sighs ot
relief nnd then for a momenfthe same
breathless silence reigned. There
came a semblnnce of Impending ap
plause. interrupted by loud rapping#
by the court bailiffs to quell the dem
onstration In Its very beginning. Again

charge of the Jury, with the thanks of
the court for n duty well doi»e, 4 and the
preparations for the adjournment of
court.
Mrs. Bradley scarcely realized that
the Jury had ruled in her favor.
When asked about her plans for the
future, she first sold:
Her Futur^ Uncertain.

Returns to Salt Lake.
"I shall go back to Balt Lake—back
to the place nnd the people who knew
me," said Mrs. Bradley. "It wll be bo
much easier out there where evoryone
knows me than staying here or going to
some strange place where only one side
of the story has been told.
"My conscience harts me no mutter
