Sausalito answered with its two whistles and I backed my boat and kept it backing all the time for 1 wanted to take unusual precautions. While backing I suddenly saw the dim out- Iines of Sausalito’s light steaming head-on under slow bell toward my boat. It was nearcely a boat's length away when I first aw K. = ANl Were Exolted. ‘Sausalito crashed into San Rafael just a little forward of amidships, where the restaurant 1s situated. It was quite a smash, but at the time I did mot think it was serfous enough to sink it. The women and children began to scream and many of the men folks became greatly excited. 1 held my post and sent my mate below to find out the extent of the damage and to quiet the passengers: My crew took their proper positions and as far ag they were concernedl they kept their heads and worked according to their accident drill. “In the meantime I sang out to Captaln Tribble of Sausalito to stay alongside and pass us a line, which he did. T then net about to do what I could to see that everybody got aboard Sausalito. We lowered three liteboats and Sausalito low- ered two. Men, women and children piled into them, but we put most of the pas- sengers on Sausalito by handing them over the rail. We passed the women and children over the rall and through the windows and most of the men hustled onto Sausalito without any aid. Nearly all of the passengers had on life-preservers and after the first shock they behaved them- selves very well. No Ome Lost on Roard. “‘They were as cool and as mervy & lot of people as T would want to find anywhere. The steamer was not settling very rapidly during this time we were getting the pas- sengers aboard Sausalito. When its hold got full of water it started to sink very rapidly, but at this time all of the pas- sengers were aboard Sausalito. If some of the passengers did not jump overboard dur- ing the panle immediately following the collision—and my personal opinion is that there were not any who were so foolish to do that—I should say that there were not any lives lost. I am quite certain that nobody was lost on board during the tranaferring of the passengers. Those who were in the water were hauled aboard with ropes and everybody that went into the liteboat that capsized bad lite-preservers. “As the steamer sank (t listed to the starboard and one of the masts nearly crushed one of the lifeboats. I was the last man to leave San Rafael and when 1 lett it there was not a living soul aboard. 1 took a good look through the cabin and even went below and cut the halter rope of our freight horse. 1 tried to lead him out toward the deck and he balked. There was not much time to lose, so I just got him started %o he could have a chance to get overboard when it sank and possibly awim ashore. I don't know whether he got into the water or not, but when I left San Rafael there was not a single passenger aboard the sinking steamer.’ Captain's Her Deed, There is a discrepancy In the statements of Captain Tribble of Sausalito and of Cap- tatn McKensie of San Rafael concerning the circumstances immediately preceding the collision. Captain Tribble says the vessels bore on each others’ port bows when first in sight of each other, whila Captain McKenste says it was the starboard bow Of the many heroic storles told in con- pection with the accident notably is the one relating to Fireman Gielow of Sausa- Mito. As San Rafael was sinking it was re wembered that its fires were still burn- ing and its boilers still hot. There was, ims mediate danger of a terrific explosion that | would have rent hoth.vessels asunder. Cap- taln Glelow volunteered to dive into the hull and shut off the steam. Diving through the submerged bofler roots he reached the valves and shut off the steam, coming ont half suffocated Sun Rafael was the fastest ferry on the bay. It was built in New York and shipped bere in pleces, arriving here in 1877, James McCue, the well-known horseman and old-time circus mun, who lives at Corte Madera, was probably the most se- | rlously injured of the survivors. He was in the restaurant of San Rafael at the | time of the collision and was thrown across the room with censid ble violence, He had his right arm broken and sustained internal injuries Pleada Not Guilty to Rohbe COLUMBUS, Neb.

There should be no antt- Rosewater foolishness in dealing with the case of Mr. Stuefer. The concerted volce | of the republican press can bring ahout his resignation if nothing else can. A prompt resignation upon demand is the least reparation which an unfaithful public servant can render an outraged constitu- | ency. Let (Staefer Step Ont, Clay Center Sun (rep.): After reading charges of State Treasurer Stuefer's mis- use of the surplus funds and the treas- urer’s defense it looks very much like The Bee had the best of it, and that Mr. Stue- fer has, after having an opportunity to in- vest state funde, permitted the opportun- ity to go by and afterward purchased the same bonds at a decided loss to the state, sald loss going to middlemen. This seems to have been done in three or more in- stances, and it is ot strange it he should | be charged with collusion. The republican party took a step on the right road when it demanded the return of Bartley to the pen- itentiary, made the second step by having Mr. Goold withdraw, and now, if Treasurer Stuefer is speculating with the public funds let him step down and out. Let it be distinetly understood that* republican officials must be like Caesar's wife—above suspicion, Should Relleve the Party, Blair Courier (rep.): The Omaha Bes| calls upon State Treasurer Stuefer to re- sign and others less radical ask a thorough investigation of The Bee's charges. If Mr. Stuefer can stand the light of an investi- gation, well and good, and nome will be| better pleased than the republicans of the | state who call for an investigation. 1If he! a5 soon as possible of the odium | was promised that he would write forth- with to Mr. Everett, chairman of the hoard This he never did. It was the wish of the board to float these bonds at the lowest rate at which the state would take them at par. Porsonal interviews nor lotters availed to get a proposition from the state treas urer, It it were true, as the Pilot says, that the state offered to take the bonds at 314 | per cent, how is it they could not have made it 8% per cent when the treasurer after- ward purchased them of his friend at that rate? Again, what better are Dodge county bonds that he can take them at 3 per cent, as he did 326,000 last week. This defense of the treasurer is all bun- combe. The state school funds have been used for private gain and there is no use of denying it. There is but three propo- sitions to this matter: Either Stuefer, the state treasurer. was a tool of Neligh's or ligh was a tool of Stuefer's, or they worked in conjunction and divided the money.
