One Dead, Many Injured
Flames on World’s Greatest
Liner at Hoboken.
in
NEW YORK, Aug. 28—The Ham-
burg-American liner Imperator, the
biggest passenger - carrying ship
afloat, which arrived in port last
night with 3,100 passengers on board,
was swept by fire to-day as she lay at
her pier in Hoboken, N. J.
Second Officer Herman Gerbracht
lost his life while trying to close the
Are doors and confine the flames to
the fifth deck, or provision room.
It was reported that two seamen had
been burned to death, and for a long
time they were missing, but subse
quently were found.
, Many of the crew were injured
fighting the flames and battling with
the 2,000 steerage passengers who
were panic-stricken as the fire raged.
The damage to the ship is esti
mated at $100,000.
First Cabin Deck Saved.
By the terrific work, the flames
were kept from spreading to the first
cabin and the superstructure, anJ
within four hours the flames were un
der control. They had licked their
way into the coal bunkers, however,
and the firemen settled themselves
down to carry on a patient battle.
The danger, however, to the bal
ance of the ship was entirely over,
Captain Ruser said.
If the Are had occurred at sea un
der the same conditions, the tragedy
probably would ha/e been a duplicate
of the Titanic disaster.
The Imperator got into her berth at
7:15 o’clock last night with the big
gest passenger record in the history
of trans-Atlantic ‘ravel. Among her
763 first-class passengers were George
Ade, William Ellis Corey, Samuel Un-
lermyer, Paul Warburg, Mrs. Rudolph
Spreckels, F. W. Wool worth, Julius
P. Meyer, vice president of the Hani-
burg-American line, and Allison Ar-
$ mour.
Flames Spread Quickly.
The fire was discovered in the pro
vision room on the ship about 5
o'clock. Fed by the oils and fats of
ihe foodstuffs. It spread rapidly. The
crew was assisted by the trained fire
fighters from Hoboken, Jersey City
* and New York.
The provision room is In the after
part of the vessel. So swiftly did the
flames eat their way that it had been
communicated to the second cabin
before the alarm became general.
Steerage passengers, hearing the
crackling of the walls and stays, set
% up a cry of fright which echoed over
the entire ship.
Smoke rolled upward from the liner,
giving the impression on shore that
the Hamburg-American pier was on
tire. Police reserves were rushed to
the scene.
Captain Ruser, chief of the five
commanders of the leviathan, was
one of the first to reach the provision
room. He personally took command
and directed the fight against the
flames. The room was seething not
and filled with smoke, but the men
dashed in with lines of hose and soon
thousands of gallons of water were
being poured upon the blaze.
When the woodwork of the second
cabin ignited, word v-s sent to the
pier to summon the land firemen, and
a general alarm was turned in to the
Hoboken fire department.
The land force was soon on th*
scene, and several high-pressure
streams were added to the fight.
Acts of heroism mingled with acts
of cowardice during the worst of
fire. The hero of the disaster wai

This brave seaman voluntarily gave
up his life while struggling to close

AGLER’S HIT
WINS HOT
BATTTLE
Solicitor Cites Prisoner’s State
ment on Stand, “Now is the
Time, This is the Place.”
Solicitor Dorsey was as busily en
gaged on the Frank case Thursday as
he was any day before Leo Frank
was convicted of the murder of Mary
Phagan. If the factory superintend
ent finally succeeds In avoiding the
penalty fixed it will not be because the
Solicitor has not fought to the utetr-
most of his Btrength to put the rope
around Frank’s neck.
Briefly but pointedly Solicitor Dor
sey Thursday morning summed up his
opinion of Leo Frank’s latest alleged
statement concerning the trial and
the Solicitor’s speech.
“Frank,” said the Solicitor In his
quiet manner, “declared on the stand
that ‘now was the time and here the
place.’ That’s c-’.l I have to say.”
The Solicitor declared that the
State would ask the new Grand fury,
which will be sworn in Tuesday, to
Indict Jim Conley Immediately as an
acknowledged accessory after the fact
In the murder of Mary Phagan. He
declared further that he had no in
tention of asking for a shortening of
the sentence, as this was in the prov
ince of the Grand Jvry and the Judge.
No Vacation for Dorsey.
Although worn out as a result of
the long strain, Solicitor Dorsey de
clared Thursday that it was his In
tention to keep right at work without
taking a vacation. A few days of
"taking it easy,” he. said, will put him
In excellent shape for the remainder
of the summer.
The wheels of activity lr. the Solici
tor’s office, which had stopped for a
few hours after Frank's conviction
W’fls obtained, started again Thursday
as noiselessly and smoothly as though
there had been no Interruption of
their tireless activity.
If the lawyers for Frank are going
to put forth herculean efforts to save
him from the gallows, every move on
their part will be met with the most
stubborn resistance by Dorsey.
When they announced that they
would ask Judge Roan for a new trial,
the Solicitor calmly gave out that he
proposed to ask the Indictment of
Jim Conley as accessory after the
fact from the next Grand Jury at its
first season.
In this he appears to display a cer
tain confidence that the verdict of
the twelve jurors last Monday will
not be set aside. If Frank at a sub
sequent trial were found not guilty of
the murder, Conley’s conviction as
accesiory after the fact. If not illegal,
at least would be anomalous, In that
there could be no accessory after
the fact of the murder if a Jury de
cided that Frank was Innocent.
The announcement' by Frank’s at
torneys that they would continue their
fight into the higher courts in the
event that Judge Roan refused them
a new trial, was met by the renewed
activity of the Solicitor in seeking
out new evidence against the convict
ed man.
Exactly as though Frank were still
in the Tower awaiting trial, the So
licitor gathered about him Wednes
day and Thursday the detectives who
have been working on the case anc
Instructed them to run down rumors
he had heard during the last days ot
the trial in respect to evidence which

MEXICO 10
Foreign Colonies in Capital Peti
tion Home Government to Rec
ognize Present Regime.
MEXICO CITY, Aug; 21 — Mexico
this afternoon made a move to mob
llize all her treops. A circular lssu
ed to the Governors of all the States
notified them “as the greater part of
the republic has been pacified, the
federal army will be withdrawn and
vs 111 now fulfill Us fundamental mis
sjon to guard the sovereignty of ths
country and the Integrity of the na
ttonal territory.”
Ranchers throughout the country
will furnish guards for their own and
their neig htbor's properties, so that
the federal troops may exercise their
activities otherwise.
The general impression from ?h<*
circular Is that Mexico is preparing
for war. especially with the publica
tion of the message of President Wil
son and Secretary Bryan calling up
on all Americans to leave Mexico Im
mediately.
The news that large bodies of
American troops will be mobilized
along the frontier to enforce the neu
trallty laws and that warships will
be sent to Mexican waters is viewed
with alarm by foreigners.
Despite the advice to leave Mexico
forthwith, few Americans here appear
to heed it, and look for more explicit
reasons from the home Governmen*
The British, German. French, Aus
trian and Spanish colonies here have
passed resolutions indorsing recog
nition of the Huerta Goverment and
asking the-ir Governments to urge the
United States to do likewise. The
resolutions do not criticise President
Wilson, but are made in the interest
of peace and that belief by this means
it will be assured.
Huerta Threatens Revolt.
SANTA CRUZ, MEXICO, Aug. 28.—
It was learned on the highest au
thority to-day that if President Hu
erta is forced to resign at the behest
of the United States he will head s
fresh veloution and will place himself
at (he head of all the regular soldiers
who will mutiny.
WASHINGTON. Aug 28.—Nervy*
In the capital were strung almost to
a breaking point to-day as the morr
ing passed with absolutely no rift in
the Mexican war cloud.
At the White House it was an
nounced that at 1 o’clock this morning
a tlegram had been received from
Hueyta through John Lind, but that
it had no vital bearing on the tense
situation, and the opinion was that
the Mexican trouble-maker is firm in
his determination to ignore President
Wilson's plans and force armed in
tervention.
Advices from Mexico that Huer’a
is satisfied with President Wilson's
message to Congress on the situation
has not tended to relieve the situa
tion.
This would indicate on the fac«
of it that Huerta admits that he con
stitutionally Is debarred from being a
candidate at the polls next October.
Cunning Trap Seen.
It Is pointed out In administration
circles, however, that General Huerta
may resign the presidency at any
time between now and October and
thus make himself eligible as a can
didate.
It is pointed cut that Huerta hat
construed the message to mean thar
Wilson acknowledges the sovereignty
of Mexico, and gives definite guaran
tee that the United States will n
intervene in Mexico nor meddle fu***-
ther with Its domestic affairs.
The second note does 4^ot carry
much weight in Washington Stat*
