ALL IS PLAIN SAILING And the Vessel Will Now Be Righted and Pumped Out Immediately. NARROW ESCAPE OF TWO MEN. The Sugar Refinery, Gas Works and Rolling-Mills May Have to Pay Whartage. The Blairmore has been moved into shallow water and the raisers are confi- dent of success. When operations were begun she was sunk eleven feet in the mud. She had to be raised out of this bed the chief difficulty. On several occasions the bow was raised several times, but just at the critical moment the pumps would choke up or the hawsers part. pumps were placed on the hull and yester- day the first real success was gained. At low water the air pump was started |and soon the bow began to rise. The Monarch and W/ | inshore and when the pumps began to | tell on the water that was in the stern of | the vessel up the vessel came. Then the strain began to tell and slowly tug, wrecker and sunken ship moved inshore. When { almost half a mile had been covered the tide began to flow, and as there were & couple of vessels in the way Captain Burns | determined to stop operations for the day. The Blairmore is now in eight feet shal- lower water than she was last Monday and there will now be no difficu in getting her on an even keel ana pumping her out. “Iam now satisfied that we will have the Blairmore up and as good as new in- side of two months,”” said Captain Burns | yesterday. “Where she was lying there was_a terrible tide running, and it was | hard to work in it. In fact there were only two or three hours at a time in which | we could do anything. Last night (Mon- day) the tide ran like a millrace, and I | thought evervthing would be torn out of the Whitelaw. As it was our surging tangled the hawsers and the Blairmore’s | bowsprit, and the latter snapped off close to the stem. We are now in slack water nearly ell the time, and will be able to work continuously.” The probable cost of raising and refit- | ting the Blairmore will be $50,000. The | work is being done by the insurance com- panies, and they will make money on the transaction as the vessel is insured for $80,000. Had she been abanaoned and the wreck sold it probably would not have brought more than $1000 at auction, so the underwriters will oe fully $29,000 akead on | the transaction. | News from the whaling fleet that win- tered in the Arctic is not encouraging. The catch has been a small one and all the fish taken were small ones, so the yield in | bone and oil was a poor one. The catch, | as given in a private letter, was only up to | last November, but in the meantime many | of the vessels may have done better. The { Mary D. Hume had only 1 whale, New- i port 7, Wanderer 1, Jessie H. Freeman 3, | John and Winthrop 1, Fearless 2, Northern Light 2, Jeanette 1, Karluk 1 and Navarch | 3. "Later advices, which arrived yester- day, give the catch of the Fearless as 5 and the Orca 6. This news is not authen- tic, bowever, and the officers of the Steam | Whaling Company discredit it. | _ Captamn Rideout of the steamer Trilby denies that this vessel was in collision with the Svengali. He says the Trilby | never left her moorings on Monday, and | therefore could not have been in Mission Bay. It must have been some other steamer that the Svengali bypnotized, for | the collision undoubtedly took place. Captain Russell, late of the Rio de an Jose on July 1. date will make a special round trip to all Central American ports and make a clean- | {up of all delayed freight. A new service { will then be inaugurated and the Mail Company will be ready for all opposition that may come along. There will also be achangeon the Acapulco. Captain Searles, who brought her in, will resume his old osition of *ship’s husband,” and Captain Mortensen will assume command. Tke Harbor Commissioners held a short session yesterday and the pile question | occupied nearly all their time. The Teredo- proof Pile Company wrote complaining that the San Francisco Timber Preserving Company was infringing on its patent, and stating on the authority of its attorney that the board would be held responsible | |if it used any of the opposition’s piles in | | the construction of the new ferry slips, President Colnon thought the Teredo- proof Pile Company had no ground for complaint, as the Timber Preserving Com- | pany used creosote on solid logs and then i nailed on an outside casing, whereas the other company built up an artificial log with small pieces of timber., the latter | process being on the principle thata teredo | when at work will never pass a crack in | the wood. At this point P. F. Dundon, who repre- | sents the Timber Preserving Company, | said he would enter into an indemnity | bond to protect the commission in the event of any lawsuit. The law point was finally submitted to the board’s attorney for his opinion, and the pile question was | turned over to Chief Engineer Holmes, | with full power to act. President Colnon raised the question of | dockage charges at the Union Iron Works, ! rolling-mills, gas works and sugar refinery. | At none of those manufactories is dockage paid, and the Commissioner thougint it | over the water front, from the Presidio to | the county line. On the motion of Com- missioner Chadbourpe the matter was re- ferred to the attorney for his opinion. Thomas O'Neil and Ed Jones had a nar- ternoon. When off Blossom Rock their boat capsized, and they drifted around on the keel for nearly half an hour. Finally the Monticello came along and Captain Randall went to their assistance. He was en route for Vailejo, but went out of his way to put the men avoard the revenue cuiter Hartley. Their boat also was cked up, ard the men were landed at ducking. capsized yesterday afternoon off Blossom Rock. They were rescned by the steamer Monticello. The United States steamer Hartley also went to the rescue and picked up the boat. The rescued men were Thomas O'Neil, a runuer, and partner. They were transferred from the Monti- cello to the Hartley and landed at Meiggs wharf. English Mining - gents Sightseeing. The representatives of & large English syndi- cate recently formed to purchase extensive mining properties in Calaveras County leit the Palace yesterday for a little -ightseeing in the country, pending the arrival of the mining en- gineers that are expected irom London to pass upon the value of the contemplated invest- she had made for herself, and that was | Extra | hitelaw were both towing | Janeiro and City of Para, wiil take out the | The steamer on that | should be, as the board has full_authority | row escape for their lives yesterday after- | i .giexg;:s wharf little the worse for their | A whitehall boat with two men in it| ment. The party consists of Edmuna Davis and Percy Tarbutt, who are accompanied by their wives and by the Misses Dorothy and Phyllis Tarbutt. They represent capital interested in Cali- fornia mines through the efforts of Prince Poniatowski and the additional negotiations of Wil Crocker. On their way from New York they inspected er-power plant recently erected at Ni- , the idea being to obtain_informa- tion they might later wish to apply to the mining industry to be undertaken $o exten- sively in this State by their principsls. THE CARNIVAL QUEENS Four Will Probably Be Chosen to Sit Beneath Cardinal, Blue and Gold. At the meeting of the executive commit- tee Monday of the Carnival of the Golden Gate the proposition submitted for charging 10 cents per vote in the electing of a carnival queen was defeated. It was decided that aspirants to that honor should send in their applications to the executive commiitee accompanied by vouchers from two business men of good standing. The dates for receiving apph- cations are from July 5 to September 19 at 10 p. M. The executive committee will directly choose the queen from these applications. There will be probably a queen repre- senting the State of California, one for the City, one for the Fire Department and one for the school-children. The colors for decorations and badges will Prubal»ly be a combination of the car- dinal of Stanford with the blue and gold of Berkeley, which is said to be particu- larly showy and beautiful. These colors were the original suggestions of T. Rosenthal. A prize of $25 will be paid by the execu- tive commitiee of the Carnival of the Golden Gate for a design which will em- body a week of festivities and be symboli | cal of San Francisco and its Golden Gate. | | Alldrawings must be done in ink and be submitted to the execative committee on or before Monday, July 6, at 4 p. M. The accepted design will become the property of the committee and will be copyrighted. | It will figure on all the stationery and badges and be conspicuous in all decora- tions It was deemed advisable to leave the final selection of carnival colors, badges and regalia to the committee which Chair- { man Warfield appointed as follow F.A. Haber, Raphael Weill, J. J. O'Brien, W. | D. Harper and William Newman. ! Owing to his absence from the City | Major Rathbone resigned and S. H. Fried- lander was appointed upon the executive | committee upon the recommendation of the committee on theatrical benefits. i The linance committee has prepared 600 | lars for distribution among the lead- ing firmsand business houses asking finan- cial assistance. ESCORTED WITH HONORS | Arrival of the Remains of the | | Late General W. H. Dimond. Burial Ceremonies To-Day Under the Direction of the National | Guard. The funeral-car “Woodlawn,” bearing | | the remains of Major-General W. H. | | Dimond, division commander of the Na- | tional Guard, arrived at Oakland at 8:45 | o'clock last evening. The bady was me: at the State line beyond Truckee by an | escort of staff officers. There Edwin R. | Dimond met his brother, Harry Dimond, | who was with his father in New York | when the latter died. A.Cheesebrough and | Colonel T. H. Goodman also went to meet | the incoming train.

The Declaration | THE NATION'S DAY NEAR AT HAND, Progress of the Prepara- tions for Its Ob- servance, FUN FOR THE ORPHANS. A Creditable and Patriotic Demonstration Is Now Assured. ITS MANY FINE FEATURES. The Expense Estimates Scaled Down Last Eveniog by the Executive Committee. It is now a foregone conclusion that the ! coming Fourth of July celebration will be | a credit to San Francisco. There will be a | fine military parade, and the literary ex- ercises at the Auditorium will be unusual- 1y enjoyable. The children of the several | orphan asylums will be well entertained | in Golden Gate Park, and pyrotechnics, | while not especially eiaborate, will be tasteful and appropriate. In consequence of the late aate of the organization of the executive committee and the limited time remaining in which | to solicit subscriptions some of the features originally contemplated in the demon- stration have been abandoned. It was wished to adopt the idea of the decoration committee, for a grand electri- | cal illumination and ornamentation of daays, but now it is the general sentiment that to carry it out would be far tooexpen- | sive. It is also doubtiul if the Continental Army will make as conspicuous a figure in the parade as was at first intended. There will not be any lack of patriotism, hough; the Sons of the American Revo- ution will turn out, if the so.called Con- | t I of Independence will be read bv John | Robinson, the son of a soldier of the Revolution, and an oration will be deliv ered by Zeaas U. Dodge, the grandson of a soldier of the Revolution. The tableaux will be excellent, and so will the vocal | chorus of 200 voices. i At its session last evening the executive committee addressed itself tothe task of scaling down the sums demanded by the various sub-committees, so that the ex- penses incurred should not by any mis- chance exceed the receipts. The anditing committee considered the $3500 asked for by the parace committee to be too high, and advised a reduction of from 25 to 30 per cent. Favorable reports were made | upon the following items: | National Guard, $780; two floats, $300; music, $800; regalia, $200; literary Commit- tee, $466; invitation and reception committee, $750; fireworks, $1000. With other minor tems this made a total of $6533. The collections to date, reported by the | finance committee, aggregate $2234, with | the Southern Pacific Compauy, the banks and insurance companies yet to come. Grand Marshal Umbsen said he would hike an appropriation for two more floats met by E. D. McCabe, private secretary of Governor Budd; R. L Peeler, assistant | adjutant-general; Colonel J. B. Wright of | Governor Budd’s staff; Colonel A. E. Castle, chief of division staff; Colonel J. | R. Laine, Lieutenant-Colonel J. C. Cur- | rier, Lieutenant-Colonel Fred F. Follisand | | staff; Lieutenant-Colonel Giesting, Second | Brigade staff; Major Douglas and Major | | erry, Third Brigade staff; Colonel Hor- | . Platt, retired, and Captain F. de L. | arrington, U. 5. A. | _Officers meeting the train at the San “rancisco ferry station were General R. H. Warfield, Second Brigade, and Captains | | Napthaly and Wagner of the Second | | Brigade stafl. | The mounted Signal Corps, Second | Brigade, Captain Boardman commanding escorted the remains from the ferry to the family residence on Broadway. Only | three men were absent from the corps. A guarc. of honor from the Signal Corps will remain at the casket until the hour of the funeral to-da: | Tne ceremonies will be conducted to-day | under the direction of the National Guard. | General Warfield will command the Sec- ond Brigade. Lieutenant-Colonel Victor | Duboce will command the First Infantry Regiment of twelve companies formed in | three batteries. Captain Charles A. Jenks | will command the troop of cavalry. Cap- tain Boardman will command the Signal Corps. Capiain Cunningham’s Company K of he First Infantry will fire the volley over | the grave. | At the Presidio, under the direction of | General Graham, U. S. A., guns will pe fired as the funeral cortege moves to the | cemetery. When the body is placed in the grave the Presidio will be signaled from the cemetery and then the eight-inch bat- tery will fire the major-general’s salute of thirteen guns, ten seconds intervening be- tween ihe firing of each gun. General Muller, Third Brigade, arzived in San Francisco last evening to attend the funeral. Many officers of the Third Infantry Regiment will attend the ob- sequies. It is desired by the commanding officer of the Second Brigade that all the men | belonging to the First Infantry regiment should be excused from regular duty at their places of business to-day. Comrades T. H. Goodman and Charles | Post No. 2, G. A. R., as pallbearers. rades of the post have been requested to assemble at the First Presbyterlan Churei, | corner Van Ness avenue and Sacramento | street, at 2 P. . Late last night it was announced that | the ceremonies at the cemetery would be | conducted by George H. Thomas Post ac- cording to the ritnafaf the Grand Army of the Republic. st S | At the 014 Stand. Edward Brown, formerly of the firm of 1 Brown, Craig & Co., who has been en- | gaged in the insurance business for the | past twenty-one years in this Ciuy, has | associated with him his son, Arthur M. | Brown, and they now occupy the offices | so long occupied by Brown, Craig & Co., | at 407 and 409 Monigomery treet. They represent two of the strongest companies aoing business in this country, viz.: the Svea Fire Insurance Company of Sweden, the only Swedish company doing business on the coast, and the American Fire In- I's mpany of Philadelphia. The bigh standing aund long experience of these gentlemen in the insurance busi- ness are a guarantee that the two com- panies will be ably represented on the coast. S S Farewell to Goodwin. There was a pleasant gathering in the red room of the Bohemian Club last night. Mr., Frawley of the Columbia Theater and the ladies and gentlemen of the company gave a farewell banquet to Nat Goodwin, who is about to depart for pastures new. About thirty were resent and the affair was most enjoyable. Music was furnished by the Columbia Theater orchestra. Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Cluff, division | | City in the evening the orphans will be | Albert Clark, a San Francisco lad, has | manipula | interest 1n the celebration and little tots | come every day to the headquarters in- | Wilson will represent George H. Thomas | Com- | in the parade and $420 for the Continental Army. The §780 appropriated for the Na- ! tional Guard of California was finally | adopted and action upon the other appro- | priations was deferred. There was some talk of dispensing with a grand stand, but the question was not finally determined. The OYI\hans (800 in all) will be taken out to Golden Gate Park, where the Native | Daugiiters of the Golden West and | the Ladies of the Grand Army of the | Republic will take care of them. They | will be given a luncheon, rides on the merry-go-round, etc.,, and each orphan will be presented with a neat little souvenir flag. It is expected that free transporta- | tion will be furnished the children to and | from the park oy the Market-street Rail- way Company. Upon their return to the forther entertammed with a modest ex- hibition of fireworks. Secretary Adrian Smith of the Fourth of July Committee is in receipt of an ap- plication from the Portuguese Union No. 7 to have a float in the parade representing | the first circumnavxgazion of the globe, | This will be very elaborate and beautiful. also requested that he be allowed to ride in the procession with a cart drawn by dofs in tandem. The ship captains want a float with a saluting flfl% on it, that can be dipped and ted according to the signal rules laid down by the United States navy. Captain A. F. Spear is the principal in this idea. The public schools are taking a lively‘ quiring about floats and the costumes necessary for the parade. The entire Sec- ond Brigade of the National Guards will | turn out under the command of Major Charles H. Murphy. The major is on General Warfield’s staff, and the general out in good force, and the Seven Pines | quire by next Thursday, when the execu- | | “Let Me Like a Soldier Fall.” has taken this as a compliment to himself and promises to spare no pains in making | the display particularly fine. The num-| ber of bands will not be decided until next Friday. The committee expresses itself disposed to favor the presence of union men among the musicians as far as is possible, yet it may be necessary to have some non-union men in line. The Musicians’ Union has met the committee in a very amicable manner and has offered to play in the parade with the non-union men, owing to the fact that it is a patriotic celebration. The Grand Army men are going to turn Circle, Woman’s Relief Corps, is now pre- varing a float of great beauty, the nature of which they refuse to divalge. The Vet- eran Volunteer Firemen will be promi- nently placed in line and will turn out in large number. The Fire Department will nlx:io have a large representation in the pa- rade. Besides these the Leagne of the Cross Cadets will turn out with all their com- anies. The Sons of Revolutionary Sires, including some of the most prominent citizens, will be represented. An invita- tion has been sent to Governor Budd and staff, and it is hoped he will be present to gdd to the glory and pageantry of the ay. The staff officers have not all been se- Jected, as all the appointees have not yet been neard from, and the announcements will not be made until all the returns are in. Itis provided, however, to have one chief of staff, five chief nids, thirty aids, twelve marshals of division and twenty- four aids to the marshals, The literary programme promises to be exceedingly fine. The chairman of the literary committee already has received a great quantity of poetic effusions, and the competition for the $50 prize is very keen. The decoration committee met yester- day, but decided it conld do nothing until it was allowed $800. All committees are instructed to hand in type-written re- | ports of the amounts of money they re- | tive committee will audit them, together | with the reports of the finance committee on the amount received. Appropriations will then be made, and all committees will thereafter work with more definiteness. A communication was received from the Retail Hatters' Association, saying that all the places cf business of exclusive hat | establishments would close on the Fourth | after 1 o’clock.in the afternoon. | FATHER BYRNE TO SPEAK. A Celebration That Will Take Place on the Third. The Young Men’s Catholic Union held | meeting last night to complete arrange- ments for a special celebration of the | Fourth of July. In consequence of the Fourth falling on a Saturday it was resolved that the Cath- olic Union should hold its exercises on the evening of the 3d. This will give members an opportunity of attending other celebrations, or of going into the country to pass the Fourth, The young | men’s celebration will take place in Metro- | politan Temple, which will be patriotic- ally decorated with a large number of American flags. It was resolved to use nothing else to adorn the building except the portraits of the signers of the Decla- tion of Independence. { Judge J. F. Sullivan will preside, and | ill make some interesting remarks. Mis: Kate Black will sing “The Star-spangled Banner,”” and the Declaration of Inde: pendence will be read by Ben McKinley, the cousin of the President-elect, who won a prize given by the League of the Cross | the other day. *The Sword of Bunker Hill’”* will be sung by G. V. Wood. There will be an original poem by | Charles D. South. The oration of the ex ercises will be made by Rev.Joseph F. Byrne, the chaplain of the Catholic Union; Drake’s address to the flag will be delivered by Frank F.Shea, Miss Nellie Gallagher will sing “Columbia, the Gem of the Ucean,” J. K. Tobin of the Park | band will play a tromboue solo and “The | Red, White and Blue”’ will be sung by a nartet composed of David Manlloyd, G. %’. Woods, Miss K. M. Black and Miss Nelhe Gallagher. David Manlloyd will also sing the tenor solo from *‘Maritana,” Professor Harrison will preside at the organ. THE HOWARD CLUB. It Will Have a Uniformed Drill Corps for the Campaign. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the Howard Club was held last evening at Pythian Castle Hall, 90914 Market street. Over 300 members were present.

HAPPY PICNICKERS AT SAN RAFAEL, The Enjoyable Reunion of St. Brigid's Parish- ioners. LEAGUE OF THE CROSS.| Company G Has a Merry and Memorable Day in $chuet- zen Park. IN AID OF THE NEW CHURCH. There Were G mes and Dancing With- out Any Intemperance—A Model Gathbering. From morning until evening yesterday at Schuetzen Park, picturesquely located in the hills of Marin County, there was a scene of youthful merriment. It was a sociable gathering of Company G, League of the Cross Cadets, and a large crowd was in attendance. The boats of the Tiburon ferry leaving San Francisco at 9 and 11 A. m. and 12:35 and 3:30 . M. were crowded with the cadetsand theirinvited guests. The hours of the morning and the afternoon were passed pleasantly and all too quickly in the athletic : ames and dances usual with such gatherings, and it was 6:30 . M before the last of the merry company took the special train and journeyed back to the City. The League of the Cross, as is welI! known, is a total abstinence society under the auspices of the Roman Catholic All young men between the ages of 16 and 21 years are eligible to member- 1894, and mustered into the Kirst Regi- ment of the League of the Cross Cadets in | the following month with fifty members enrolled. Itis now commanded by E. J. Power, captain; Owen McMahon, lieutenant; James J. Scanlan, second lien- | tenant. Following is the Jist'of the non- commissioned officers: First sergeant, William Madden; second sergeant, Robert Powers; third serzeant, James Tooby; fourth sergeant, William Hennessy; fifth sergeant, Joseph Maloney; first corporal, D. J. Earle; second corporal, H. Griffiths: hird corporal, F. Colligan; fourtn corpo- al, William Curry; fitth corporal, Thomas Crowley; quartermaster-sergeant, William Dixon. Company G has a record_to be coveted. Its percentage at a recent, inspection was 98, and its labors in the grand competitive military drill of last year were so_noticea- ble thai it was awarded a $25 prige. Ser- gennt William Dixon, one of its non-com- missioned officers, bore away from 150 competitors the Ryland trophy, and Cap- tain Powers wears upon his breast the Montgomery medal, the ofject of each company’s ambition. Itis almost super- fluous to say that all of the cadets carry | sabers, are handsomely uniformed in blue | and well drilled. At Schuetzen Park yesterday the young folks talked and lunched under the shady trees and strolled around the grounds and danced in the pavilion.
