CHARLESTON, S. C, Aug. SI.
Passengers on the ill fated steamer
Lexington, which was beached on
Edlston Island during the hurricane
Monday afternoon, Uved ten years, In
the space of twenty-four hours, with
the ship almost entirely submerged
time and again while driven before
the gale. This was the statement
made by some of those taken from
the shtp by the revenue outter Varna

care of Chief Steward Berliner, await

afternoon the passengers were given
the privilege of proceeding to Sa
vannah by rail and there take pass
age for Philadelphia, but with the
horrors of their recent experence
fresh In mind, they promptly declined
the offer. Lack of power to resist
the gale caused the Lexington to be
beached. With five feet of water n
the engine room every pound of steam
that could be raised was used to man
the pumps and ' keep the ship afloat.
With the boat under water Steward
Berliner managed to cook food for
the passengers and creeping on hands
and feet served It to them In the
cabin where they were unable to
move through fear of being washed
overboard. Mrs. W. J. Mansfield, of
Philadelphia, wife of the clerk to the
chief of police of Philadelphia, was
warm In her praise of Captain
Conolly.

POINTS AGAINST IT
Two of Their Witnesses Testified
To Having Seen Bearded Man on

CHESTER FIELD COURT HOl'HK,
Va., Aug. 80. Testimony corrobo
ratttve of the story told by Henry
Clay Beattte, Jr., that a bearded high
wayman' killed his wife with a shot
gun was Introduced by the defense
In the Beattie trial today, when W. R.
Holland, who lives In the vicinity of
the Midlothian turnpike where the
murder occurred, declared that he
had seen a bearded man with a shot
gun there about five hours before the
tragedy. It was the first move of
the defense after the proserutlon rost
ed Its case at noon today to establish
the veracity of the prisoner and be
sides Holland's statement concerning
a man with a shot gun. Eugene Hen
shaw, a farmer who travels the Mid

he saw a strange looking man prowl
ing around on three different days be
fore the murder. It is reported to
night that the prosecution is ready
when it's time for rebuttal arrives.
to put on the stand the man who
passed the railroad tracks where Hol
land 'said he saw a man with a shot
gun, and that the new witness will
ay he was squirrel hunting that day.
The defense summoned many wit
nesses. Besides the testimony re
garding the bearded man, expert tes
timony was introduced as to the
bouncing qualities of an automobile,
similar to that driven by Meattlo,
thereby accounting for the jolting out
from the car of the shot gun placed
In a rear teat by Beattie after the
encounter with the alleged highway
man. The prosecution attacked this
line of evidence on cross evamlnatlon.
It contended that the railroad cross
ing where Beattlo claims the gun
must have been ejected from tha car
was a smooth one and that tha Jolt
which might have resulted from
crossing the , tracks where the rails
are 'exposed necessarily would have
tossed the weapon forward from the
crossing Instead of directly sldewise
parellel wjth ' the track where the
gun was found,. The Idea of the pro.
ecu tlon. has been , tq I indicate that
