HE SAN FHAN CISCO CALL, MONDAY, MAY 18, 1896 FATE OF THE CADZOW FOREST Wreckage From the Missing Bark Picked Up by Indians. CREW AND PILOT LOST- A.Life Buoy Bearing the Vessel's Name Cast Upon the Beach. WENT DOWN IN A STORM. Driven by a Furious Gale Onto the Rocky Shores of Barciay Sound. VANCOUVER, B. C., May 17.—At last #omething definite has been lear con- cerning the fate of the British bark C: Forest, which has been missing for several months and bas been posted as lost. The news received confirms the worst fear: and there is now scarcely any doubt bui that the bark was wrecked and all hands drowned. The Methodist missionary steamer Glad Tidings, which has on board a crew of Methodist and Salvation Army mission- aries who preach the Gospel to Ind arrived in port yesterday from a cruise among the missionary stations on Van- couver Island and the northern coast. The little steamer on this occasion was not the bearer of glud tidings, for the intormation brought by its skipper seals the fate of the Caazow Forest. While at China Hat, in the Alberni district, Indians showed him a hfe-buoy bearing the name *‘Cadzow Forest,”” which they had picked up on the beach the day before. The Indians also stated that a quantity of wreckage was strewn along the shore. They thought a big ship had been wrecked, though they cou!d not give any description of it. The Glad Tidings bad on board several mis- sionaries, who were on their way to the British Columbia conference, and they confirmed the story. The matter was re- ported to Captain Gaudin, theagent of the Marine and Fisheries Department at Vic- toria, who will officially announce the loss of the Cadzow Forest to the shipping world. The Cadzow Forest left San Francisco for Portiand, Or., several months ago to load grain, and was seen off the mouth of the Columbia River bar, where it took on a pilot. A storm came up and the bark was driven out to sea and never seen again, The Cadzow Forest, though a stanch bark, had on but little ballast at the time and was in no shape to encounter a storm, especially such as suddenly spring upon the Pacitic coastduring the winter months, and so as time rolled on and no tidings of her were heard shipping men shook their heads and whispered that there was but little hope for those on board. The Do- minion of Canada Government steamer Quadra was sent by the friendsof the miss- ing crew to search for the bark along the rocky coast of Vancouver Island, but the search was fruitless, and then all hope was abandoned. There were twenty-two of the crew, most of them known in San Francisco among shipping men. From the facts known it would appear that the Cadzow Forest was driven by the storm on to the rocky shores of Barclay Sound, on the west coast of Vancouver Island, where many a good vessel has met disaster. The Columbia River pilot muss have perished with the crew. The Cadzow Forest was a British bark of 1068 tons, and was well known on the coast, more especially last year, when as a lumber bark it was commanded by Cap- tain McInnes. izow ns, HEWS OF ARE ISLANG The Battle-Ship Oregon Soon to Visit Cities on Puget Sound. Lieutenant-Commander Delano Se- lected as Executive Officer of the Vessel. VALLEJO, Car., May 17.—The flagship Philadelphia and the monitor Monadnock have left the navy-yard, to be absent sev- eral months. They will probably go north. Because the Monadnock was constructed at the Mare Island Yard it will be an object of interest to residents in the cities on Puget Sound. They will also have an opportunity of viewing the Oregon soon atter it is finally fitted out at the navy- yard. No money has yet been received to re- pair ships now at the yard. Many men are registering their names in the employ- ment office, hoping to be among the first to be called when orders are received to commence repairs on the Baltimore and other ships. The Concord and Petrel will but a short time—two or three —to be refitted. The Alert will remain on the lower coast for some time to come. A shipment of nearly 150 packages of stores was made to the vessel, which is now at La Libertad. J. M. Milsaps, formerly County Treas- urer of Glenn County, has accepted a posi- tion as n the department of construction and repairs, to fill a vacancy. Another gentleman had been appointed to the place, but it was found that on the dey he should have reported for duty he was in attendance at the Republican Con- vention at Sacramento. The fact was reported to Secretary Herbert, who forth- with rescinded the former appointment and named the incumbent. 3 For the first time in many monthsa discharge occurred in the ordnance de- parument last week owing to lack of funds. Orders have been issued thaton June 1 Captain H. L. Howison will relinquish command of the Mare 1sland Navy-yard and be assigned to special duty in connec- tion with the new Queen of the Navv, the battle-ship Oregon, and on that date Rear- Admiral W. A. Kirkiand will take com- mand of thenavy-yard. Lieutenant-Commander F. H. Delano has been selected as the executive officer of the Oregon. A week from Monday Chief Engineer George F. Kutz will be detached from the department of steam engineering and placed on theretired list June 25, at which date the chief will have served forty years of active service in the nay.

Mrs. McLane, at pres- ent sub-chiéf, will in all probabilily be unanimous ected grand supreme chief. Several candidates ure mentioned for the office of supreme secretary, but it is gen- erally conceded that office will zo to Mrs. K. M. Flynn of Social Circle No. 118, who is now junior past supreme chief. At this session a resolution looking toward a reduc- tion of the per capita tax from 50 to 40 | cents will be introduced. A reception will be tendered the visiting delevates to-morrow evening by Circle Queen of the Redwood of this place. ik - BACK FROM AUASKA. Discouraged Gold-Seekers Eeturn on the Steamer Mexico. SEATTLE, Wasm., May 17. — Eighty pessengers, possibly one-half of them dis- appointed gold-seekers, returned from Araska on the steamer Mexico, which ar- rived in port at 6 o’clock this morning from Juneau and Sitka. Cooks Inlet, ac- cording to the Mexico's advices, is still packed with icejams and very few, if any, of the gold-hunters who left Puget Sound ports for the Turnagain Arm had euc- in reaching their d ation at the time of the vessel’s aeparture from Ritka. However, the route into the Yu- kon is unobstructed and many hundreds of miners have found their way in from Juneau. MRS. COOPER DEPARTS. The Veteran Reformer Bids Her Bible Class Pupils Adieu for a Season. & Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper had a very large gathering of men and women at Native | Sons’ Hall yesterday, many of whom par- ticipated in the class lesson. Before the ovening Mrs. Cooper announced that she and her daughter, Miss Cooper, expected to leave on Tuesday morning for Louis- ville, Ky., to attend the biennial meeting of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, to be held in that caity from May 26 to 30. The federation is composed of over 500 clubs; in this and other coun- tries. Mrs. Cooper is treasurer of the fed- eration, and goes on under official au- spices. She will speak twice at the parliament in Southern California en route. After the meeting of the federation Mrs. Cooper and Miss Cooper will visit kindred in Chattanooga, Tenn., where the former is to speak several times. Returning by the way of Chicago and the State of Washing- in they expect to reach home about the 16th of June, in time for the normal kin- dergarten graduating exercises. The lesson of yesterday was on the ‘‘Parabple of the Pounds.”” It dealt with the faithful and unfaitnful stewards. It was shown that a faithful use of every capacity opened fresh avenues of usefulness. The difference was not in the amount with which one lLas to work, but in the indus- try and fidelity with which it is used. To be true to small trusts 1s to be prepared for larger ones. Great occasions do not make great men; they only reveal great men, who have made themselves ready for the occason. Every day the message comes, “Occupy till I come!” To do what we can is_the highest principle of life. Rev. Mr. Nash will take charge of Mrs. Cooper’s class till her return. ST DR. KUHLMAN EXPLAINS He Finds Serious Fault With Some of the Statements Made by Cor- oner Hawkins. ~ FRANCISCO, May 17, 1896. To the Editor of the San Francisco Call—Sir: In this morning’s issue of THE CALL appears an alleged interview with Coroner Hawkins in regard to the suit for damages instituted against him by the widow of the late Jens W. Sonderup, in which the Coroner is alieged to have said the undertakers informed him that I had paid the expenses of the funeral of the said Jens W. Sonderup and that I had told him (Hawkins) at the time of the man’s death that the family dia not contemplate instituting & damage suit against the raiiroad, but desired that the man might be buried guietly without an sutopsy. In regard to the first allegation I wish to say that the body of Mr. Sonderup was placed with the undertnkers, Messrs. Gantner & Guntz, by the widow herself, and that I have not con- tributed a single cent toward said funeral or inany way pledged myseli to be responsible in any wey for the expenses thereof. | _ In regard to the second allegation I wish to say thut a suit for damages in the sum of 000 against the Southern Pacific Railway Company was pending in the Superior Court at the time of Mr. Sonderup's death, and the alleged statement made is as false as the death certificate filea by the Coroner in the Health flice. Respectfully submi CHAs.

Mrs. Dunid screamed and the fellow ran 1into a neighboring lodging- house,where he was followed and captured by the officers. He wascharged with grand larceny. ———— CONVENTION RALLY. Golden Gate Union Will Welcome Re- turning Delegates. Golden Gate Unior of Christian En- deavor will hold a *‘convention rally” this evening at 7:45 in the First Presbyterian Church, corner of Van Ness avenue and Sacramento street. All the endeavorers in the City will be present to welcome the re- turning delegates from the State conven- tion, as well as to meet and greet Miss Belle P. Naszon and her company of young workers.

She will be one of the speakers of the evenineg, and will bring the first news from San Jose, pre- eenting especialiy the junior and interme- diate phases of the Christian Endeavor movement. Reports already received from the delegates who went from San Frgncisco zre brimful of enthusiasm, which they hope to impart to the 2800 en- deavorers of Golden Gate Union, and give them a foretaste of what the convention of 1897 will mean. The numerous societies in the union are preparing most enthu- siastically for the rally, and will be repre- sented by large delegations. THE SCHUETZEN VEREIN OUTING, Thirty - Seventh Annual Festival of the Organi- zation. A DAY AT SHELL MOUND Rifle-Shooting for Cash Prizes One of the Chief Attrac- tions. SCHUETZEN KAISER HONORED. William Ehrenpfort, the Oldest Man in the Club, Carries Off the First Prize. In 1859 a number of German-Americans formed an organization of the social, fraternal and military order, which was called the San Francisco Schuetzen Verein. Yesterday was the beginning of a two-day festival to celebrate the thirty-seventh an- niversary of the orzaenization. Captain L. Siebe of Shell Mound Park has for several days been preparing for the event, and no pains were spared to make the shooting, bowling, dancing and general merry-making a grand success. This verein forms an interesting chapter in the early history of San Francisco. It was the first and only independent company called into active service during the late war. Two days after the assassination of President Lincoln, Chief of Police Burke epted the proffered services of the Schuetzen Verein and placed the company in the old Alta publishing office to protect it from the lawless element that threatened to demolish the paper and presses. It that Captain Schmidt of the regular troops relieved the volunteers, for be was one cf the first captains of the latter. bas not in the least lost its popularity, and its last act of American pariotism was to march under the American flaz, which floated yesterday on the breeze with the company’s new State flag. This flag was purchased by a committee consisting of A. Browning, R. Finkingand Charles Thierbach. Before starting out one of the oldest members, presented the new flag, which isa beauty, with a short and appropriate address and a little la the verein’s new State flagand Old Glo: were kissed by the same breeze. The ex- pectations of the members were iully real- ized, for Shell Mound Park was alive with friends and members by noon. Great in- terest was manifested in the target shoot- g and the verein oecupied half of the twenty-six stand Among the riflemen was one to_whom all lifted their hatsin respect. He was Fritz Hagemann, the Schuetzen Kaiseror Emperor. This title was won_ twelve years ago at the twenty-fifth anniver-ary of the verein, at whico all the German so- cieties and clubs were represented, In keeping with an old Fatherland custom there was eagle shooting and the con- ferring of the title of shooting king. Being the twenty-fith anniversary, the title was raised to Schuetzen Kaiser. Al- thongh there were many riflemen who aspired for the honor and shot hard to dis- member the eagle on the pole, it was Haeemann’'s bullet that found the right spot, and he orougnt down the remaining wing, the tail and the body. At that time the German war had just come to an cnd, and the Crown Prince was affectionately name was at once bestowed upon Fritz Hagemann. ceived the beautiful silver wreath, which is seen in the accompanying picture, the highest medal and the choice of over 150 valuable prizes.

Firing became more frequent as the skirm- ishers bobbed up from behind dunes of sand or clumps of brush. The effect was realistic and much enjoyed by the spec- tators. Meanwhile the reserve of each party was in biding until the proper time to move appeared at hand for either one, The scheme was to get position and thereby gain advantage over the enemy, and in attempting these maneuvers marching and flanking were done. The opposing forces were 5000 yards apart at the start and could not see each other until they advanced quite a long distance. Once they drew near firing chan, from desultory shots to volleys, and the melee was suggestive of a genuine, bloody battle. Major I. B.

The text of his sermon was: ““The Growing Want of Religion in London.”” He delivered an inter- esting review of the condition of the people of the lower class, not only in Lonaon, but in the great cities of England,and deciared that while England has always been & Christian country, itis becumln% de-Christianized because of the lack of reiigions teaching.
