It Took Her Thirty-Five Days to Make the Run From Honolulu ALL DELAYED BY HEAD WINDS. Narrow Iscape of Captain Johnson of the Steam Schooner Scctia. Long passages are not uncommon, but the South Sea Island fleet has broken the record. Barks, barkentines, brigs and schooners that have made the run in from eleven to fourteen days have on this oc- casion been out all the way from three weeks to a month and a balf. Al tell the same tale, “light winds and calm,” and in many cases tae vesseis ran out of provi- sionsand others more fully supplied had to help them out. Of tne overdue fleet the Andrew Welch made the best run. She came here from Hawaii in twenty-three days. The Mo- hican was twenty-eight, the clipper schooner Murial twenty-six, the Lurline thirty, the Archer twenty-eight, Annie Johnson thirty-seven, Aloha thirty-four, Jennie Wand thirty-one and the Alden Besse thirty-five days. Apart from these it took the Tropic Bird forty-four days to get here from Tahiti, while the average passage 1s less than a month. The vessels due from. Australia, from the Orient and from Furope sre all mak- ing long passages, and, like the sugar fleet, are probably delayed outside. The City of Phiiadelphia, now out 150 days from New York, is posted as missing and 60 per cent reinsurance is paid on her. The Undaunted 1s 160 days out from Baiti- more, Ederbank 164 days from Antwerp, F. 8. Ciampa 132 trom Caraiff. Cambus- kenneth 158 from Hamburg, Blackbracs 161 from Liverpool, Ravenscourt 138 from London, and Latham 140 from Swansea. Many of these vessels have been in | more or less trouble, so the long voyages cannot be wholly attributed to adverse winds. For instance, the Blackbraes was compelled to return on account of the weather; then she was in collision, and finally last May she put into Montevideo leaking and with he- rudder damayed.i while the Wederland had to put into Port | Stanley with ner cargo shifted. She alsol lost many of her sails, the rigging s damaged, and in order to save the ship | considerable of the cargo bhad to be jettisoned. | Of all the vessels that have made long runs that of the Alden Besse has been the most exasperating. When Captain Potter was making his adieus to Captain Wik liams of the W. G. Irwin, ne said: *“@ood- by, old man; I'll be on the wharf to megt you in San Francisco.” The Irwin his been in port sixdays ang has not only discharged but is now loaing for Hono- lulu. Captain Potter had more than his share of head winds, however, so it is no | faulv of the vessel that she did not make | better time. | On the 20th inst. the monotony of daily life on the bark was broken. The British ship Clackmannanshire hove in sight, and | the signal ‘‘short of provisions'’ was | hoisted. The Britisher was bound for As- | toria and was clean out of fresh-canned | meats. The vessel had called in at Pitcairn Island and there had obtained a supply of vegetables, but these did not last long, and whoen the Alden Besse hove in sight the crew wason *short allow- | ance.” Captain Potter was well- provi- sioned, and he willingly gave the Britisher all the supplies be required. Anent the loss of the bark John Baizley | the Bulletin has this to say: | Ships, like cats, often have nine lives. The berk John Baizley, that one year ago lay at section 3 of the seawall of this City,isa vessel that has been abandoned more than once, but when she went ashore at Macao, south of Hongkong, some weeks ago, it was thought in nautical circles that she was wrecked for all time. But the Baizley does not came into Hongkong harbor, towed by & mite of a tug, looking as if she had interfered with the progress of a typhoon. She was minus copper sheathing, sails and ruaning gear, for the pirates of Macao had sacked her like a Cuban town, leaving nothing but her hull and cargo. The iatterbeing hardwoods from India, was 100 heavy and awkward to carry. The galley stove, however, was neither too hot nor | 100 hefty to discourage the robbers, and that, | too, went with the rest of the booty secured by the marauders. The Harbor Commissioners let the re- | pairing of dredger No. 2 to John Twiggs & | Son yesterday. The meeting of the board was short, as Commissioner Chadbourne had an engagement to meet S. 8. Green | Jr.. Chiet Engineer of the Department of | ‘When the El Capi- tan got in from the excursion around the bay with the civil engineers Mr. Green was taken in charge by Colonel Chad- bourne and escorted to the State tug Governor Markham. The latter was deco- rated from stem to stern with the United States and State colors and presented a very pretty appearance. Pacific-street wharf was inspected, and Mr. Green at once acknowledged that it was the equal of any pier in the United States. The foundation of the new ferry depot was ex- amined. and from there the party made a general tour of the water front. 5 The party that went out on the El Capi- tan made a long tour of the bay. Captain Johnston of the steamer Scotia was badly injured yesterday. A sling full of ties fell against him and knocked him down. He was badly- injured and had to be taken to St. Mary’s Hospital. He will recover. The report from the Japan sealing fleet is as follows: The Katherine 119 skins, the Josephine 60, the Ssdie Turpel 560, the Triumph 461, the | Allen Alger 602, the St. Lawrence 309, the Louisa D 521, the Aurora 327, the Fortuna 447, the Umbrina 742 and the Mary Taylor 361 skins. POISONED BY LAUDANUM. R. G. Dorman, a Collector, Found Dy- ing on the Street. A man about 50 years of age was found dying on the sidewalk at Sixteenth and Sanchez streets last night. As it wassup- posed, he was drunk he was ‘taken in the patrol wagon to the Seventeenth-street station. . Alter being in the station for a few min- utes, Corporal Heggerty saw that the man Wwasin a comatose wnd!fion, and 8 bottle, marked “laudanum,” about nalf empty, which was found in his pockets, led him to suspect that the man had poisoned himself. He was sent to the Receiving | Hospital, and Dr. Fitzgibbon expressed the opinion that he couid not live many hanrs. i P rom papers found in the man’s pocket he is supposed to be R. G. Dorman, a col- lector for Otto Luhn & Co., soap manufac- turers, living at 944 Thirty-fifth street, Oakland. The Alden B:sse as She Appeared Yesterday When Being Towed to the Sugar Refinery.

A PLEDGE AND A BADGE. The Manufacturers’ Association Will Maintain a Special Booth. THEE NEW TRADEMARK RULES. A Hearty Assurance of Co-operation Extended to the A'ameda County Fair Peop.e. The coming Home Industry Exposition to be held in the Pavilion this fall was the principal subject discussed at the regular meeting of the Manufacturers’ and Pro- ducers’ Association yesterday. There were present Directors McLaughlin, Bowers, Currier, Crocker, Keller, Mead, Kerr, Manager Tacy and Assistant Secretary Dingle. 8. H. Tacy, who is actively engaged with the special committee in working with the IFORNIA - Ot (L The Association’s Silk Badge for Those Pledged to Home Industries. directors of the Mechanics’ Institute in arranging for the coming fair, presented the following report, which was adopted: Inasmuch as it is expected that the forth- coming ‘‘Home Products Exposition” to be held in September next will attract wide- spread attention and be very largely attended it will afford this association an excellent op- ‘portunity to do a great desl of good mission- ary work among the people for the cause of home industries, and in order that full advan- tage may be taken of the event Iwould sug- gest to your board that arrangements be made for the erection of a booth in the Pavilion to be maintained and known asthe headquarters of the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Associa- tion of California. Itshould be about 10x12 feet in size and be erected in an attractive and pleasing style, with the California trademark in electric Iights displayed overit. 1t should ‘e fully supplied with literature pertaining to I | the following resolution: the subject of “Keeping the Money at Home,” nd also provided with silk badges for the la- dies signing a pledge to give the preference to articles of California manufacture or produc- tion. Anattendsnt should be there st all times to receive the pledges and see to the distribu- tion of the badges and literature. Over one thousand pledges were signed and badges distributed at the Oaklarid Exposition, and it is my opinion that fully ten thousand pledges would be signed at this exposition. If the result would orove as satisfactory here as it did at Oaklana the benefit that would ac- crue to our members would amply repay the outlay it would entail. Manager Tacy dwelt particularly upon the importance of having a small booth for the association’s headquarters, and he said it is surprising how enthusiastic the public 1n general and the women in parti- cular become in such movements. The distribution of badges to the ladies who agree to patronize home products wasa taking feature in the Alameda County Exposition and it should be here. Mr. Tacy presented a beautiful badge of orange colored silk, to be given away, which was adopted. The obligation of those who receive these souvenirs reads as follows: “No community is prosperous whose people are not employed.” I hereby pledge myself, price and quality permitting, to give the preference to articles of California manufac- ture or production in everything that I pur- chase or use, and will endeavor to induce others to do likewise, and thus assist home industry. (Name, address, date, etc,) By purchasing articles of home production you assist in the employment of home labor. Keeping the money at home means prosperity to the cominunity in which you live, your neighbor and yourself as well. It is expected that many thousands of these pledges will be taken at the expos:- tion. The matter of making rules to govern the issuance of the new association’s trade mark was discussed and laid over for con- | sideration at a special meeting. | In response to a communication from | the Alameda County Home Product Expo- sition committee the association passed WHEREAS, The citizens of Alameda County, | State of California, are about to hold a home industry exhibition of manufactures and products of Alameda County, similar to the one held in that county last year, but ona much larger scale; sud whereas, the exhibi- tion of 1895 has proven te be of incalculable benefit to the people of said county; and whereas, the holding of such exhibitions is di- rectly in line with the work being prosecuted by this association; and whereas, it is the be- lief of this association thatsuch exhibitions must of necessity be productive of much good to the manufacturers and producers of the en- tire State; be it therefore Resoved, By the Manufacturers’ and Pro- ducers’ Association of California that the Oak- land Exposition is deserving of encourage- ment and support; and be it further Resolved, That this association extends to the Oskland Exposition its hearty congratulations for its success in the past, and its wishes that | the same or a greater measure of success will | attend its present and future efforts in the | same direction; and be it futher Resolved, That this as<ociation offers to the management of the Oakland Exposition any and cvery assistance tnat may be [n its power. JABBED WITH A ENIFE. Frank Brown Wounded by Sam Winaut Because He Refused to Give Ten Cents. Frank Brown, 4 Octavia street, was stabbed in the lefr side last night at Sixth | and Howard streets. He was taken into | the drugstore on the corner and the ambu- Jance was summoned to take him to the | | | | | | | |, At the hospital Dr. Fitzgibbon found | ling bargains, t00 numerous to mention. e e e Receiving Hospital. that the blade ‘of a knife had entered a litle below the breastbone and that the wound was not serious. Brown was extremely reticent as to who stabbed him. Finally he said it was Sam Winant, who lives in the Lindell House, at Sixth and Howard. “I know Winant,” he said, ‘‘and when he met me he asked me for 10 cents to get adrink. I refused to give it to him and he jabbed me with his penkuife. I took the knife from him and let him yo.” Winant was: arrested and taken to the City Prison, where he was booked on a gharge of assault to murder.

PROSECUTION’S THEORY. Graphic Outline of the Secretive Course Pursued by the Sus- pected Criminals. STRONG EFFORT TO CONVICT. Attorney Dunn Objects to T. V. Cator’s Testimony as to Becker’s Former Record. The work of securing a jury to try Cree- gan and Becker, charged with the Nevada | Bank forgery, was begun and ended yes- terday in Judge Wallace’s court. In the forenoon eight jurors were ob- tained, and in the afternoon when eleven men had been accepted the original panel was exhausted, and the court had to take a recess until the Sheriff got a trial jury, from which the twelfth man was soon selected. Following are the twelve men who will decide the guilt or innocence of the defendants: Joseph L Twohig, Milton Lambeth, Michael Flood, W. Y. Keliogg, Charles Wollpert, Julins E. Klemm, E. W. Scott, W. Hobson, W. E. Balcom, Harry Heacock, W. W. Doolittle and H. C. Bennett. The Assistant District Attorney, in his opening remarks, went over the mamn facts of the case and outlined the proof he would offer. “We will show,” he began, “that a conspiracy to commit this forgery was hatched at New York in November, 1894, and that by this conspiracy A. H. Dean was to come to California and select a bank upon which to pass a raised note. Creegan suggested that Dean first openan account with some bank, and that later he (Creegan) would come on to California with Becker, an expert forger, who was known variously as ‘Scratch’ and ‘The Dutchman.’ Creegan also made arrange- ments with another of the gang, Joe Mec- Cluskey, t » meet him in this City. “‘Dean opened an account with the Ne- vada Bank,” continued the District Attor- ney, on December 4, 1895. He went to ‘Woodlund and bougit from the Woodland Bank a check for $12 on the Crocker-Wool- worth Bank. On his way back Dean un- expectedly met Creegan on the boat and gave him the $12 check, which Creegan raised to $22,000 and returned to Dean a few days later. He deposited the check to his credic in the Nevada Bank, Two days later he withdrew $20,000 from the San Francisco bank in gold done up in four Mint sacks. “Dean and McCluskey divided the money between them und then both left for the East, Dean going a day later than McCluskey because as he was on his way to the ferry with him he met the cashier of the Nevada Bank and feared that he was looking for him. “Creegan and Dean niet later in New York by means of personal advertise- ments in the New York Herald. When, shortly afterward, Creegan and Becker were arrested in Philadelphia a number of new $20 pieces, bearing the mark of the San Francisco mint, were found among their baggage. In Becker's trunks was also found a complete forger’s outfit, which he claimed he intended to use to alter playing cards in connection with a gambling house he intended to open 1n South Africa. Assoon as he was released by the Philadelphia au- thorities, however, be threw this forger’s outfit into the Schuylkill River. ‘‘All this,” concluged the District Attor- ney, ‘““we will prove beyond the peradven- ture of a doubt. We will establish a con- vincing chain of facts proving that these two men are at the bottom of this whole forging scheme, aud we will accordingly ask you to render a verdict of guilty.” Thomas V. Cator was the first witness cailed. He knew Becker and had seen him 1n New York in 1878 or 1879. Attor- ney Dunn objected to the District Attor- ney’s question as to whether Becker had admitted to Cator that he had been enzaged in a foreerv, on the ground that anything that he said had hap- pened eighteen vears ago was not admissible in evidence. Judge Wallace sustained Attorney Dunn’s objection and witness Cator was allowed to depart. Betore adjournment Attorney Dunn made a demand upon the prosecution to produce certain documents in their pos- session, including statements made by A. H. Dean, Joe McCluskey or Wiley Lytle to Captain Lees. The court then ad- journed until 10 o’clock this morning. A letter has been received by F.J. Le Breton, President of tte French Savings and Loan Society of this City, from Joseph C. Hendrix, Chairman of the Executiive Council of the American Bankers’ Asso- ciation in New York, urging him to take energetic steps against the forgers now on trial. In the letter Chairman Hendrix says: 'y‘Tha association has been at heavy ex- pense in this matier, and it has spared no efforts, realizing that this is probably the most dangerous gang of forgers in the world. 1tisto the interest of all banks that they should be thoroughly prosecuted and, if possible, convicted and imprisoned for a long time.” A New Corporation.

Hubert Mee, John 8. Merrill, George Whipple and €larence Doane, followed by the brides- maids, Miss Gertrude Church, Miss Mary Eyres, Miss Elisabeth Sanderson and Miss Eflznbem Moffatt. The ushers, walking two abreast, foliowed by the maids, proceeded half-way down the main aisle. Here they parted, lining up on either side, thus form- ing a guard of honor for the handsome young bride, who marched slowly to the altar, preceded by her maid of honor, Miss Blanche Baldwin, and foilowed by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Milton Andros. The happy groom, attended by his best man, Professor Clarence Cory, met his bride at the altar. ‘THe gown of the bride was elegant, yet simple. ) silk.
