Officers of the Zaragoza Who Visited the Cruiser Received a Farewell Salute. AN ASSAULT TO MURDER CASE. The Cook of the Lighthouse Station at Goat Island Nearly Killed the Steward. The officers and crew of the United States cruiser Philadelphia were kept busy | yesterday. Early in the morning a big, | three-masted schooner fouled her, and she had to be got away. Later the admiral and officers of the Mexican man-of-war Zaragozs paid her a farewell visit, and the usual salute to the Mexican flag had to be fired. The schooner that ran into the Phila- delphia was the Mary Dodge. She gotin | from Kahului, H. L, last Sunday night, | with a load of sugar, and yesterday when | a breeze sprang up she attempted to sail to | the sugarrefinery. The captain would not accept a tow, and when the tide began to set him down on the cruiser he was power- |‘ less to avert a collision. By the time the vessels came together the man-of-war had launched her sieam cutter, and the| schooner was soon out of her dangerous predicament. The wind fell light and she eame to an anchor, but at once began to drag. She brought up on the cable, and the telegraph people at once hired the tug Annie and had the sugar vessel moved again. Then the captain accepted a tow, and his schooner was moved to the sugar | refinery. The schooner was damaged about her top hamper, but the cruiser was only scraped a little. For some time past Navigating Officer Ingalls of the cruiser has been dissatisfied with the anchorage off Clay-street wharf. One night last month the Philadelphia broke adrift and went over half a mile | with the tide before she brought up. An appeal was made to the Harbor Commis- sioners to lay down moorings, and that body will do soif the Lighthouse Board | will help. In the meantime the Philadel- phia tugwed at her anchors and driited a | little every night. The navigating officer got angry finally, and vesterday, aiter the visit of the Mexican men-of-warsmen, the anchor was tripped and the cruiser moved up to saie moorings off Folsom-street wharf. The booming of cannon announced that the official visit from tte Mexican man-of- war to Admiral Beardslee was over. The boat in which the visitors arrived lay-to | about 100 yards irom the cruiser. The latter then ran up the Mexican flag and fired eleven zuns. The little Mexican launch, with the flag floating over its stern, the white cruiser, with the Mexican flag also fluttering in the | breeze and the stars and stripes at her gaff, and several vesselsin the background, | formed a pretty picture. Then, when the | | cannon was fired, the smoke rose up and | circled around the warship and made her look almost ghostly in the envelopment. After leaving here the Zaragoza will go for a short cruise down the coast, and will | then return to San Francisco. She will be here for the Fourth of July celebration, and may be at that of the raising of the flag at Monterey. While here the warship has been thoroughly overhauled at the Union Iron Works, and she will now be good for another six months of service. Some time ago five of her boats went | adrift and only two were recovered, so that the other three had to be replaced. *+0ld Bill” Warford and Henry Roland | had a row on the water front last Sunday | that the latter will not soon forget, Both | men are boatmen, but Bill is in the sere | and yellow leaf, while Henry is a young man. The latter had a quarrel with the | old man, and was knocked down. He | putlea Bill down, and began to bite and scratch, but some of the other boatmen pulled him off. Half an hour later Roland followed Warford into a saloon, and then | Bill went for bim. He gave bis persecutor | such a beating that his friends had to rescue him and take him home in a wagon. “Stevedore” Charles Johnson, who has been on the water front for over forty years, was in trouble on the front on Sun- day. He has been an _attache of the firm of Piper, Aden, Goodall & Co. for a gener- ation, and on Sunday he got it into his bead that the windows wanted cleaning. | He borrowed a towel, some soap and water and a ladder and went to work. He placed the ladder, as he thought, against the wooden framework, but it was resting on the glass. He began to climb, and when half way up the ladder the glass gave way, ;nd in a second $25 worth of damage was one. Johnson was in despair and he drowned his sorrow in lager beer. Several hours later he went crashing through the glass door of a cigar stand and then he forgot everything until he awoke in the City Prison yesterday morning. He sent a message to Harry Piper and the latter at once secured his release. Johnson was as mad as a hornet over his arrest yesterday and say he ugoing to report the matter to the Police Commissioners. He cannot understand why a man of his forty years of service on the water front should be treated so. There was almost & murder on Goat Island last Sunday, and in consequence one of the lighthouse crew is in_jail on a charge of assault to murder. For some zimo‘gnst Harry Cooper, the cook, and L. H. Wahrman, the steward, have been | squabbling, and Cooper, who is a big, | strang man, frequently threatened to ‘**do | up the steward.” | Sunday last the trouble came to a cli- max, and a fight was only prevented by the other men on theisland. Wahrman went to his room to dress for a visit to the City, and a few minutes later Cooper fol- lowed him. As the steward was bending over a bureau drawer to take out a collar, the cook rushed in and struck him on the back of the head. Wahrman’s head sank into the drawer and Cooper at once closed in on him. His neck was thus caught in a vice and the cook wreaked his vengeance at leisure. He kicked the half-strangled wan until he was_tired, and then let him drop to the floor. Wahrman lay insensible for half an hour and then went to bed. Yesterday he came over to the City and swore out the warrant, which was served by the harbor police. The Pioneer Yacht Club will celebrate the battle of Bunker Hill on the 17th inst. by a regatta. The yachts will assemble at Powell-street wharf at 10 o’clock sharp; thence to fall in line and follow flagshi Volunteer to stakeboat off Mission RocE buoy; thence to Blossom Rock buoy; thence to Anita Rock, off Presidio; thence to Sausalito and Angel Island, where a grand entertainment will be given. Commodore George Engels will command the Volunteer. —_— e GROCERS’ PICNIC to-morrow, Schuetzen Park, San Rafael. i | Worrall.

PALACE HOTEL HOLDS IT | Cablegram Which Says Her Sister in London Is Mys- tified Too. CORONER MAY GO TO LAW. Analysis of the Stomach Still Un- comp'eted—Indications of Poison Are There. Last evening Coroner Hawkins, accom- | panied by Joseph K. Hawkins, who is his attorney and brother, went to the Palace Hotel for the purpose of claiming and tak- ing charge of the property of Miss Mayne The thickness of the mystery surrounding the death of the young Eng- lish woman has been lightened up very little by the developments so far, and the Coroner desirad to search the baggage for any information that might be concealed there. ‘When he took possession of the body last Saturday afternoon he supposed there would be no dispute concerning his right to the baggage when he got ready to take itaway. But when he called at the Palace last evening Assistant Manager Warren refused to allow him to take the baggage. The reason for this is that Mr. Warren wants to be positive that the hotel com- pany would be in no way liable in giving up the young lady’s personal effects. Goroner Hawkins and his attorney then made a formal demand for the property. Mr. Warren expressed a desire to consult his attorneys, and promised to let the Coroner know later what his final decision was. The Coroner waited at his office till 11:30 last night, but no word came from Mr. Warren. Attorney Hawkins said that this morn- ing he would take legal steps to compel the hotel to give up the property, if he could not get it otherwise. And thisis why a search of the young lady’s effectsis stopped at the present time. The baggage comprises a flat trunk full of dresses, underciothing, etc., a hand- satchel which contains comb, brush, toilette articles and a half-used package of Virginia Brights cigarsttes, an inexpen- sive brand, notwithstanding the reputeda wealth of the young lady. There are also some letters in the satchel, but the Coroner was not permitted to peruse them. Inspection of her room has disclosed the fact that Miss Worrall was very fond of cigarettes. The drawers of her bureau contained many cigarettes. Miss Worrall’s jewelry is locked upin the hotel safe. Dr. P. W. Nathan, acting autopsy physi- cian at the Mo;&ue, has reached the con- clusion that Miss Mayne Worrail came to her death from a poison of a non-cor- rosive character. He mace an examination of all the or- gans of the body, and found there was no lesion. The stomach was taken out and reserved for chemical analysis, and the Enin and spinal cord kept for micro- scopical examination. It was at first thought that Miss Wor- rail died from cigarette poisoning, but the condition of her heart did not warrant such aconclusion. It will be several days vefore Chemist Morgan can finish the chemical analysis of the stomach. No action in the matter has been taken by the police, and will not until the analy- sis is completed, and not then uuless the report of the chemist warrants it. A Dispatch From London. LONDON, Exe., June 8.—On receipt of a cablezram announcing the sudden death in the Palace Hotel in Ban Francisco of Miss Mayne Worrall of Chester Lodge, @Gilston road, South Kensington, London, Saturday, a representative of the United Press called upon Mrs. Hyde, a sister of the deceased lady, at her residence in the Hyde Park mansion. rs. Hyde informed the reporter that Miss Worrall was o6f a brignt and happy disposition and entirely free, so far as she knew, from care. Only Eeuterdny she had received a letter which her sister had written to her the day before she sailed from Sydney, N. 8. W., for San Francisco, on board the steamer Alameda. [n the letter Miss Worrall made a number of in- quiries concerning family affsirs and inti- | lot 25x125 on the east side of Dolores'| | street, 160 feet north of Twenty-fift,, was mated that she was in excellent health and high spirits. Mrs. Hyde could not conjecture nny! reason why Miss Worrall should have died from the effects of poison, as alleged, self-inflicted or otherwise. REAL ESTATE AUCTION. G. H. Umbsen & OCo. French Hospital and Other Properties. The auction sale of miscellaneous prop- | erties held yesterday by G. H. Umbsen & | Co. brought out a good crowd and there was quite active bidding on some of the pieces put up. The principal offering was the old French Hospital property, on Bryant street, be- tween Fifth and Sixth, consisting of a 100- vara lot and a three-story brick building. About three months ago $50,000 was of- fered for the property and refused. Yes- terday the best bid was $49,500, and it rests with the board of directors of the French Benevolent Society whether a sale at this | figure will go through or not. | Of the other {;roperfles offered a two- story house with lot 27:6x80, located at the northwest corner of Fulton and Web- ster streets, sold for $8100. A lot 26:6x70, with improvements consisting of double house, located on Stevenson street, be- tween Fifth and Sixth, brought $3650. A Sell the Old | sold for $1675. A lot 25x100 on Bright street, Ocean View, brought $85. Two fgots 25x121, each located on the south line of Eighteenth street, 125 feet west of Clever alley, sold with an *if’” for $800 apiece. A lot 25x137:6 on the south side of Oak street, 287:6 feet west of Devisadero, was sold also with an “if”’ for $1950. The premises 315 and 317 Golaen Gate avenue, consisting of lot 34:414x137:6 and two nine-room houses, was offered and the best bid obtained for same was $15,000. CLOAK OPERATORS. A Movement On Foot to Consolidate All Those Engaged in Clothes Making, The cloak operators and press hands en- gaged in garment making held a meeting at Academy Hall, 927 Mission street, last night. Thne report of the executive committee of this branch, recommending the holding of a mass-meeting on July 12 for the con- solidation of all the hands engaged in the tailoring business to meet and take final action, was adopted. MAS, WILLIAMS' PISTOL, The Effect It Produced on the Federal Inspector of Chinese. He Disobeyed an Order of Court T.hat‘ He Should Not Even Speak to His Wife. A revolver in the handsof a woman with a determined look upon her face frightened Richard 8. Williams, inspector of Chinese for the customs department, yesterday morning. Some time ago Mrs. Williams com- menced an action against Williams for divorce on the ground of cruelty, and upon the representations Judge Seawell made an order that, while the suit was pending, Williams should not interfere ‘with or molest his wife, nor even speak to her. Yesterday morning Mrs. Williams, in company with the Misses Runge, was in astore at Powell and Greenwich streets, when Williams approached and expresaed a Jesire to talk to his wife. “I told him,” said Mrs. Williams, “that 1 did not want to talk to him or haveany- thing whatever to do with him, because he was armed. He said that he knew he was, but that he did not want to harm me. One of thagonng ladies with me thought that it might be the easiest way out of the matter to hear what he had to say, so I asked him what he wanted. With that he caught hold of my wrist, when Miss Hattie Runge went for an officer and re- turned with one. Williams then released | me, and the officer suggested that in com- pany with my friends I geton a car that was approaching. “We did so, and as the car started Wil- liams ran after and boarded it. So did the officer, who rode along a distance of three blocks, when he left and Williams ap- roached me again and caught hold of me. %hen the car reached Sacramento street he pulled me off the car, but at that mo- ment a gentleman came up and made him release me, after ‘which he went away. 1| attempted to board the car again when Williams seized me by the neck, and to save myself I took out an old revoiver I had with me and pointed it at him, when he turned deadly pale and backed away. 1 and my friends then got away. When he caught me by the neck he said he wanted me to go to a Mrs. Ferry, and that he would make me go there.” | duction should be maintained. Three of HACK-DRIVERS OUT ON STRIKE Employes of the Pacific Carriage Company Quit Work. RESENT A REDUCTION. Not a Living in $125 a Day When They Have to Bear Expenses. TWENTY-FIVE MEN AFFECTED. Have Readily Secured the Indorse- ment of the Company’s Best. Paying Customers. The drivers for the Pacific Carriage Com- pany went out on a strike last night at 5 o'clock because of a reduction of wages from $1 50 to $1 25 a day. They had expected the cut would be de- clared and were ready with a petition which they submitted to the company’s best customers, who readily agreed to stand by them and not patronize the com- pany’s coupes or carriages while the re- the largest undertaking firms, which in themselves are the mainstay of the car- riage company’s business, have given their support to the striking drivers, and several of the largest cafes and restaurants are already pledged to aid the strikers’ cause. Twenty-five men, including ten extras, are affected by the strike. Only two regu- lar drivers have remained for duty. The drivers say it was hard enough to make a living on $150 when they were compelled to pay for all breakages, make good bad bills and furnish their own liveries. On $125 they declare they can- not do this and make a living. One of them, speaking of the matter last night, said that the drivers are expected to supply themselves with ariving-coat, | silk hat and kid gloves and present a neat | appearance. In addition to this expense | item to be found out of their meager | wages they must make good the fares left unpaid by unscrupulous customers who | often leave the carriage waiting in front of | a saloon while they retreat gy the rear | way. A majority of the strikers are said to be men with families. Early in the evening a number of men in sympathy with the striking drivers gnthere«fflbout the three carriages at the ferry and hooted at their drivers, calling them scabs, but the striking drivers de- clared that they took no part in the demonstration. Some of the enthusiasts even went so far as to attempt to overturn the carriage driven by a man whose per- sonality made him particularly distasteful to those who stood out for restored wages. The police, however, interfered and pre- vented further disturbance. Oliver Hinkley, superintendent of the Pacific Carriage Company, made no pro- vision last night for new drivers, nor had he said anything about an a:reement with the strikers. BANKS 5 CREDITORS, Court of Appeals Gives Them the Preference Over Common Depositors. By the Decision Rendered It Ts Safe | for One Bank to Loan Money to Another. The United States Court of Appeals, Judges Hawley, Gilbert and Ross on the | bench, handed down an important deci- | sion yesterday affecting th« Liability of one | bank to anothber in the event of failure. | The title of the suit as it appeared in the | aprellate court was ‘‘George B. Blanchard, receiver of the First National Bank of | Whateom (Wash.), vs. the Commercial Bank of Tacoma.” By the decision just rendered banks are made preferred cred- itors. Some months ago the First National Bank of Whatcom was placed in the hands of = receiver, George B. Blanchard being named for that position. Four months prior to this act the Whatcom bank bor- rowed $10,000 from the Commercial Bank of Tacoma, agreeing to return the same within twelve months, with 10 per cent added. The crash came, however, before that time and ihe Tacoma people found them- selves simply one of many creditors. Later, on zge advice of counsel, they in- stituted suit against the receiver of the defunct institution to recover the amount loaned. The case was tried in_the United States District Court and a judgment ren- dered in favor of the plaintiffs. Receiver Blanchard appealed the case on the ground that it made preferred creditors of the successful litigants. The Court of Appeals reviewed the deliberations of the District Court, returning the decision already mentioned. The importance of the decision is found in the fact that heretofore a bank loaning money to a sister institution has in the event of the failure_of the borrower been compelled to take its chances with com- mon creditors, depositors, etc. The con- clusion just reached, however, makes every bank perfectly safe, so far as money loaned to each other is concerned. The opinion was read by Judge Hawley and concurred in by Judges Gilbert and Ross. .- CARNIVAL OF NATIONS. Worthy Ladies to Hold a Fete to Se- cure a Home. The executive and advisory boards of Women’s Educational and Industrial Union of San Francisco metat their rooms, 7 Van Ness avenue, yesterday evening to consider the subject of having a benefit to the Union for the purpose of founding a home. The Union aims to prepare women .in trades and occupations whereby they may earn a livelihood, to supply the defects of early education, and to provide cheap in- struction in all branches of culture. 5 A number of classes are at present main- tained, including cooking, dressmaking, millinery, hair-dressing, manicuring, stenography, type-writing, physical cul- ture, French, German, Spanish, vocal and instrumental music and Finhng' Every year the iudies have been obliged to call upon the public for assistance in defraying their expenses, and. as Mme.

The audience that saw ‘“Miss Jerry” at Metropolitan Hall Iast evening enjoyed a most exquisite treat. Itwas a novel enter- tainment consisting of a series of rapidly changing pictures thrown upon a darkened screen, and the story they tell, given by Miss Carrie Louise Ray, a pretty young lady with a sweetly modulated voice. ‘The lady of the pictorial features of the play is a Miss Geraldine Holbrook, a re- porter, and her interviews are tie theme of the story. As the scenes dissolve into each other before the audience Miss Ray sgeaks all of the characters, producing an effect both realistic and pleasing. Between the acts Miss Don M. Cann sang several songsin one of the sweetest contralto voices ever heard in San Fran- cisco. Her tones were smooth, full and clear and her manner simple and charm- ing. The entertainment is under the management of Frank F. Miller. “‘Miss Jerry” will be repeated at the Metropolitan Temple to-morrow and Thursday evenings. “AMERICA” AHEAD. Another Victory Added to the Many ‘triumphs of the Patriotically Named Yacht. A beautiful three-mile windward race before four hitherto unbeaten model vachts was sailed on Sunday afternoon from the foot of Powell street. The course was a three-mile straight beat to windward in the direction of An- gel Island, and the race was won easily by the America, 8 mere pigmy, compared to her three rivals. She made the three- mile beat to windward in 22 minutes, and the clever handlicg of the America by Captain F. P. Gilbert, in the heavy sea that was on, was very creditable. The America is a very shallow and a very light boat, her entire weight being scarcely more than the weight of the lead in her rivals’ keels. She bas established an enviable record, nevertheless, having won every race she ever entered. She was the winner, it will be remembered, of the Puritan miniature yacht race. —————— @ WANT A WOMAN DOCTOR. The Womans’ Federation Wants a Lady M.D. at the Receiving Hospital. At the meeting of th¢ Womans’ Federa- tion for Public Good yesterday Mrs. Dr. Janes stated that she had investigated the Receiving Hospital and had found it to be clean and well kept, though lacking in some things, such as sheets and cooking utensils. ‘She paid a tribute to the effi- ciency of the service there. The appoint- ment of a woman doctor at the Receiving Hospital was urged, and tne federation appointed Mrs. Dr. Janes, Mrs. Rose French and Mrs. Patterson a committee to draft a petition to the Board of Health praying for the appointment of a woman doctor. Mrs. Nellie B. Eyster made a speech against sensational journalism. i S Republicans to Reorganize.

Your True Condition Can Be Told by This Most Infallible Means. The face is & true index to the state of the health and & person’s looks will always show when anything serious is the matter. For in- stance, the signs of & run-down system are plainly indicated by wrinkled brows, a pale or sallow complexion, dullness of the eyes, bad breath, dark circles under the eyes, twitching of the muscles and & tired, miserable expres- sion. There are thousands of men and women who bear these signs of ill-health in their faces. We meet them in the streets, in the cars, at church and elsewhere. Allof them show the imprint of sickness, unhappiness and misery. Ask them if anything ails them, and in most cases they will tell you they suffer from tired feel- ings, strange sensations, dyspepsis, constipas tion and loss of vitality. But is there no way for such people to change their sickly appearance into looks of health and vigor? Yes, but not without help. Nature requires and must have assistance. The sys- tem needs' stimulating, strengthening and building up. How? Simply by the use of a pure, medical stimulant, and for this purpos there is nothing better than pure malt whiske Leading physicians and scientitic men have declared this fact and it has also been proved by experience that no whiskey is so pure and strengthening as Duffy’s pure malt. It stimu- lates healthfully, feeds the wasted tissues, quickens the circulation and invigorates the whole body. All grocers and druggists keep Duffy’s pure malt, but in_purchasing see chat you get no inferior imitation. Accept only the genuine, for nothing else can produce the same effects.
