My vessel is sinking,” he breathlessly explained. “Will you come and pump her out?” ‘“We're no suckeis,”” was the reply given. It was not a flippant answer, and Captain John=on understood it. The meaning was that while the State tugs have all the appliances for putting outa fire or flooding a ship they have no suction hose and cannot pump out a ship. Captrin Johnson next got a telephone and communicated with the Spreckels’ tugboat office. Captain Brokaw of the | Alert was notified and in eight minutes he had his vessel alongside the sinking steamer. The captain and Chief Engineer Courtney worked in their night clothes until the hose was into the hold of the Point Arena and the big suction pumps were at work. For six hours the Alert kept at it. Sometimes the water would gain and then again the vessel would be almost clear. About 9 A. M., when the steamer was almost dry, Captain Brokaw hooked on and took the disabled vessel to the Merchants’ drydock. As soon as she was shored up and the water run out of her a gang of men was put to work, and the agents expect to have her running again to-morrow. The Point Arena had two remarkable escapes and yet the actual damage to the hull will not exceed $500. According to the captain’s story the | Point Arena left here Monday night at | 5 o’clock for Point Arena. The vessel was put on her usual course after clearing the heads, and then Second Mate Charles Wickman was placed in charge. About 8:30 P. M. the lookout reported to the mate on the bridge that he thought he saw land ahead. Theofficer answered, “What are you talking about, that’s fog.”” A few minutes later he again reported land ahead, and was called a blockhead. Then the lookout determined to report to the captain, but first of all asked the helms- man what course he was steering. *‘North by west,”” was the answer. Now, the sailor had been over a year on the Point Arena and he knew that Captain Johnson always steered that course so he returned to his post. Another look convinced him that there was land ahead, and he started on the run for the captain’s room. While this was going on on deck Cap- tain Johnson was chatting in his room with Purser Lincoln. A few minutes be- fore 9 p. M. the latter looked at the clock and remarked: ‘“We should be near Point Reyes.” The master studied his watch, and said: “Yes, we're about there.” At the same time he opened the door and looked out. “My God’’ was all the purser heard as Johnson rushed for the pilot- house. He knocked the sailor down who was running to tell him of the danger, and reached the signal bells. Four sharp rings, and the jingle bells startled the en- gineer,and 1n a few seconds the engines were reversed and everything opened up. It was too late, however, and the Point Arena crashed on the rocks. All was con- fusion, but Purser Lincoln went among the passengers and scon calmed their fears. Captain Johnson remained on the bridge and gave his orders as though noth- ing had happened. The iife-boats were lowered and pro- visioned, and then an attempt to back off was made. It succeeded, and at 9:30 p. M. the Point Arena was on her way to San Francisco. The consensus of opinion among cap- tains who trade on the coast is that dur- ing the past week there has heen a strong northerly set to the current, and that that fact is responsible for the accident. The captains of the Bessie K., Newsboy and Noyo have noticed the change in the cur- rent and assert that it runs three knots an hour. The northerly set carried the ship Elwell three miles, and the captain had to come to an anchor near Duxberry reef. According to them the current is the re- sult of the strong gales that have prevailed off the coast for some time past. GALLAGHER HAS GONE, He Is in Training st Los Angeles— His Expenses Have Been Advanced. It was rumored round town yesterday that Billy Gallagher, matched to fight George Green, had skipped to Los Angeles, and that the fight was off. The fact of the matter was that Gal- lagher had gone to Los Angeles, but with the knowledee and consent of the National Club. In fact the club advanced the money for his training expenses and sent | him down to Los Angeles to train, where he will be away from his friends in this City. Gallagheris an instructor in one of the athletic clubs of Los Angeles, and he prefers o train there. 2. ——————— McKenna Is Superintendent.

Philip Coombe Openly Op- posed the Adoption of the Resolution. VOTE STOOD, AY:S 55, NOES 10. Sunday Newspapers Vigorously At. tacked, but Weii Defended by Dr. Baldwin At yesterday’s quarterly session of the Congregational churches of the Bay Dis- trict, held in the Third Congregational Church of this City, the Dubuque Associa- tion was censured for its recent action in regard to Dr. C. O. Brown. This occurred at the evening session and formed the sen- | sation of the day. At the morning session the Sabbath question was the main issue. Richly col- ored fHowers and ferns with which the church was tastefully decorated gave a refreshing air of coolness to the audito- rium and the speakers were at their best. Reports of the various delegates to the conference were first heard. They were all encouraging, showing an increase in attendance and excellent prospects for the future. As the last delegate handed in his re- port Rev. John Kimball slowly rose and expressed his sorrow that the First Con- gregational Church had no delegate. He very earnestly asked the prayers of all assembled for the place of worship and its scattered, factional members. Delegates in attendance from the vari- ous churches were as follows: Niles, Edward Ellsworuh, Charles Shinn, Mrs. Charles Shinn; Park Church, Mrs. J. F. Meyers, Rev. J. B. Orr, Mrs. B, B. Orr; Plym Weyman, W. M. Seaiby; De . Hayes, Miss Maggie treet Church, Oakland, &3, Chapman, H. L. Chamberlain, Mrs. F. B. Per- kins; Richmond Church, Rev.

F. Flawith then discussed the value of the Sabbathto the state. The reverend gentleman’s paper showed that it had been carefully and conscientiously pre- pared, and it was listened to with marked interest. “Where the neglect of the Sabbath enters,” he said, ‘‘distress comes in.”” In elucidation of this he gave a local illustra- tion, picturing the miseries arising in this City from lack of Sabbath observance. These arguments, he said, could not be answered by saying this is a new country. There are many cities in the Northwest not half so old a8 San Francisco where the Sabbath is very carefully observed and where these miserable conditions are not found. “Both the physical and the spiritual man require a day for rest,” *he added, “and it is wholly due toa failure to ob- serve the Sabbath that the governments of France and Iialy have found it necessary to_lower the physical military standard.” Rev. V. Boyer followed with a paper on the value of the Sabbath to the churches. “The early Christians.”” he began, “fonnd it necessary to set aside one day in the week for spiritual devotion, The life of the church absolutely required it. “Modern life is simply turning man into a machine, and something must be done to break the speil.” Rev. E. 8. Chapman ended the series of papers on the value of the Sabbath by treating it in its relation to the individual. He believed that we are not under the old Jewish law, and that as the Savior says, “the Sabbath is made for man and not man for the Sabbath.” After this series of‘rspers had been vari- ously discussed and commented upon, Rev. G. T. McCollum read a_paper on the dangers threatening the Sabbath from the habits of Christians. In his mind, there are many. Sunday work of a different kind from that done regularly during the week is the greatest. The reverend gen- tlemen also made a spirited attack on the Sunday newspaper. Rev. Jobn Kimball made the sensational speech of the day. He had no paper pre- “hase, G. Eastman; Bethlenem W. H. pared, and spoke wholly from a few short notes. The subject he treated was, ‘“‘Dan- gers Threatening the Sabbath from the Sunday paper.”’ “There are two great devils outside of hell afflicting the people to-day,” said Dr. Kimball; “they are the ssloon and the Sunday newspaper. “The saloon from its comparative evil effects may be termed the little devil, and the Sunday newspaper justas appropri- ately the big devil. e can do sometbing with the little devil; in many cases we can abrogate its pernicious effects, but what can we do with the big devil?. Absolutely nothing so far. . “For five cents we can bring it into any house we please and then the deruon Fets in its worE. Its work consists in filling the public mind with thoughts and ideas foreign to the sacred characier of the day itself. We must do something in this matter, brethren, and for one reason I think that concerted action will bring good results. “Thet reason is that the Sunday news- papers do not even pay the publisher. It costs too much to put them out. Every editor strives to have the Sunday edition of his paper surpass all the rest and that takes a vast sum of monev.” Rey. 8. M. Freeland followed with a pa- er on the dangers threatening the Sab- ath from the ignorance of the public | mind as to its value. He continued the invective of his pre- decessor agaiust the Sunday paper, and then turning to his subject disposed of it | rather sententiously by stating that he did not believe there is any ignorance—it is rather disregard. At the close of these papers Dr. McLean rose and asked for all tue ministérs that took the Sunday paper to rise. Seven re- sponded. On the other side of the ques- uon fifteen arose. President C. J. Baldwin of Pomona Col- lege arose and made an eloquent speech in | favor of the Sunday paper. He said he | took the pavers to learn the news of the | world, and did not propose to drop every seventh page out of the account. How- ever, he would not read the paper until Monday. ' Dr. Philip Coombe said that if they were going to split hairs they might as well quit the Monday naper, t0o, as it was the result of Sunday labor. 5 After discussing the question pro and con it ended without any definite result. The evening session noted the springing of a great surprise in the almost unani- mous adoption of resolutions censuring the Dubuque Association for their recent action in the case of Dr. C. 0. Brown, and requesting that association to rescind its action in the interests of justice and equity. “The resolutions were introduced by the Rev. F. H. Foster, and are as follows: WHEREAS, Upon occasion of a recent case of discipline by this conference, the Dubuque Association of Congregational Churches and Ministers undertook to remonstrate with this conference for “unfairness,” ‘“injustice” and unwise and hasty action in the matter; and whereas, their remonstrance is based on a mis- understanding of the intention of the result arrived at by the Ecclesiastical Council which investigated the charges against the person in question; and whereas, they request this conference to reconsider its action; and whereas, in spite of this request made and in forestallment of any action which the coun- cil could take, the Dubuq‘:ne Association pro- ceeded to express to the subject of our fraternal discipline their “sympathy” and “‘confidence,” and to extend to him their “‘Christian greet- ings” and the “assurance that within the bounds of their association he could always find a hearty welcome,’’ therefore be it Kesolved, That the action of this conference was deliberate in the extreme, an entire day having been devoted to 1ts consideration after months of public discussion and of prolonged ecelesiastical adjudication; That this conference sces no reason for modifying its action then taken. That itregrets that the Dubuque Association, instead of limiting its action to a fraternal request for a reconsideration, assumed to de- cide upon the regularity and justice of the proceaure of this conference. That it more especinlly regrets the premature action of the Dubuque Association in extend- ing the promise of its fellowship to the brother under discipline. That it respectfully reminds the Dubuque Association that, in’case the person in ques- tion has suffered any injustice, the remedy lies in an appeal to a regularly con- stituted mutual council between himself and the Bay Conference, according to the principles of our polity; and that the interference further than by remonstrance in the action of one conference by another is sub- versive of all discipline and of the fundamen- tal principles of ongreg.nonmsm whereby each church and each body of churches is left to the independent management of its own concerns. . That it accordingly requests the Dubuque Association to rescind its action by the repeal of its resolutions in this matter. After Dr. Foster had read the resolu- tions Rev. Philip Coombe arose and ex- pressed his desire that no standing vote be had, a motion for which had been made. He said he would vote against adopting the resolutions,and cared not who knew it, bnt there were others who did not care to have everybody know how they voted. A The reverend gentleman’s wish materi- alized, as it was decidedto vote by ballot. The result was ayes 55, noes 10. ~One re- fused to vote. 2 After the adoption of these resolutions a series of papers were read with regard to | the preservation of the Sabbath by vari- ous methods. The first was read by At- torney S. W. Condon of Oakland, who dwelt on the Legislative method. Attorney Condou, whije desiring to abridge no man’s religious liberty, was in favor of Sunday laws. He believed them entirely necessary to the welfare of the country. There are two classes of veople, he said, who oppose Sunday laws and from very different metbods. The first are those who observe the seventh day of the week as the Sabbath, and obiject to Sunday laws as a matter of conscience. The second class, he said, comprise those who fail to observe Sunday simply becanse they are godless and object to Snnday laws merely because they want to do as they please. Rev. J.'B. Orr followed with the method of an aronsed Christian conscience. An earnest and eloquent plea was made to the assemblage to go to work more vigor- ously in the vinevara of the Master. If this were done, he said, the Sabbath ques- tion would settle itself a.ong with the other vexed guestions. “Preservation of the Sabbath by Imme- diate Effort,”” was the theme discussed by Rev. 8. H. Willey. He called upon church members to make greater effort in the cause of the American Sabbath, and told of the glorious work done by the Christian Endeavorers, the Epworth Leaguers and the Women’s Christian Temperance Union. Rev. William Rader foliowed with a scholarly dissertation on the ‘‘Ideal Sab- bath.” He introduced the subject by stating that two days might come under proper discussion, the Jewish Sabbath and the Sunday or Christian Sabbath, which lat- ter he thought is more properly called the Lord’s day. “The iaeal Sabbath,”’ asserted Dr. Rader, “will never be realized by negative legisla- tion in removing obstacies—it must come by the positive awakening of love of Jesus Christ in the heart of mankind. The ideal Sabbath will come only with the ideal man.” Rev. Dr. Pond of the Bethany Church invited the members of the conference to hold the next session at Bethany Church. The offer was accepted and final adjourn- ment was taken STAE B0 OF ThDE It Will Join in a General Move- ment to Boom San Francisco. No Exhibit Can Be Made This Year at the Pure Food Exposition in Boston. The regular meeting of the State Board of Trade was held yesterday, present George C. Perkins, Mark L. McDonald, J. P. Irish, W. H. Mills, E. W. Maslin, Cragie Sharp, Robert Jones, C. ¥F. Mont- gomery and the manager, J. A. Filcher. A letter was read from the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Association requesting that the State Board of Trade make an ex- hibit at the coming home production at the Pavilion. While the members are all in sympathy with the movement and would like to accept the invitation still the finances are low and the cost of mak- ing a creditable exhibit would be larger than the boaid can stand. It would cost almpst as much to pack the exbibit to send to the Pavilion as it would to send it to Atlanta, as most of it isin the form of glass show cases and élus preserve jars. A letter from W. E. Fisher was read, in which he called attention to the import- ance of advertising the city and port of San Francisco. Many localities, he said. are well advertised in the Baat, but this City is far behind the times, simply be-. cause the leading men lack the spirit of co-operation in matters of local improve- ment. In conclusion he said: It is a well-known fact that the co-operation of forces massed and united for a common pur- pose effect results which individual means alone could not attain. Therefore, I would suggest that the Chamber of Commerce unite with the State Board of Trade, the Merchants’ Association, City Board of Trade and Manu- facturers’ and Producers’ Association for the purpose of formulating & plan to carry out something of this character. In order to effect the end suggested by Mr. Fisher the board appointed as a com- mittee to confer with committees from other organizations W. H. Mills, E. W. Masiin and J. A. Fisher. At the last meeting Manager Filcher was directed to make inquiry as to what can be done toward making a gooa exhibit of California preducts at the pure-food ex sition in Boston. Mr. Filcher stated that he had called upon the local canners and packers and that while they favored such a move all proclaimed that the product this year will not exceed the amount re- quired by the regular customers and to nll orders already received. In the first place they cannot spare the product and, gecond, there is no use to create a demand that cannot be ftilled. Upon this showing it was decided to drop the matter. Crazie Sharp extended an invitation to the Board of Trade to visit the Oakland Exposition, which was accepted. L ——————— THE LABOR UNIONS. Shoe-Workers Anxious for a Home In- dustry Trademark. The Pacific Coast Shoe-workers’ Union met last evening at 915} Market street, and the committee in charge of the home- naustry movement reported baving met with success. Nearly all of the local shoe manufacturers are in sympathy with those who are endeavoring to work up an interest in this direction. The principal question now before the shoemakers isthe selection of a home product trademark which they wantstamped upon all shoes of local make. They are anxious to make an agreement with the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Association so that the latter’s trademark may be used in the shoemak- ers’ interest.

Best Infant Food, THE SEQUEL TO0 A HASTY MARRIAGE, Hermann Braunschweiger Jr. Has Been Charged With Insanity. HIS FATHER'S ACTION. The Young Man Married the Notorious Sadie Nichols Last Week. SAYS HE IS PERFECTLY SANE. His Mother Laid His Father’s Uiti- matum B:fore Him Which He Stubbornly R jected. Hermann Braunschweiger Jr., who mar- ried the notorious Sadie Nichols in Oak- land last Wednesday, was arrested yester- day afternoon on the charge of insanity and locked up in tbe inebriate ward in the Receiving Hospital. The complaining witness is his father, Hermann Braunschweiger, the wholesale liguor merchant, who swore to the com- plaint before Judge Sanderson yesterday. Braunschweiger Jr. was found at 116 Eddy street, where he was living with his wife. She followed him to the hospital, and after condoling with him went in search of her attorney, Porter Ashe, to get him to take steps to have her husband released. The young man topk his arrest good- naturedly. He said his father was a stern man, but he was also a just man. He had, however, made a mistake in having him arrested for insanity if he thought by that means to astain his end to get a separation between him and his wife. “I am perfectly sane,’’ said he, “and no one will testify that there is anything’| wrong with my mental faculties. I had not been drinking before my marriage, but since then I have been taking a little. I suppose I will have to remain here till to-morrow morning, but then I feel cer- tain I will be discharged.” Last night the young man’s father and his mother visited him at the hospital. The mother went to his cell, while the father remained outside. Sadie was in his cell at the time and she remained there the whole time during the interview be- tween the mother and son. His mother had a proposition to make to him from his father and she wanted the opportunity todoit while he was alone. But it was not afforded her. She told him that his father, on condition that he would take steps to annul the marnage with Sadie Nichols,would send him to one of the springs to sober up and then he could go abroad and travel for as long as he liked, and when the old man died he would get his just share of his wealth. 1f, however, he would not agree to these terms he would disinherit him and have nothing further to do with him. The mother pleaded with him to accept his father’s terms, but after over an hour’s interview she had to leave heartbroken at his obstinacy as he refused to give the Wwoman up. “This is the second scrape that the boy has been in,” said Mr. Braunschweiger. “‘About three years ago he got into scrape with a woman named Jennie Griftin, but she got tired of him and threw himout. ““He must give ugthi! woman or I will disinherit him. The boy must bave been mad when be married her. There is a taint of insanity running through the family and it seems as if he had his share of it.” After his mother and Sadie had left him young Brnunschweiier said he felt sorry for his mother and he could have given up his life easily if it had been for her alone. But his father had made a great mistake in trying to have him declared insane. He would not be bulldozed that way and would just be as stubborn as his father. Sadie went in search of a Superior Judge to get her husband reieased from the hos- pital and said she would be willing to pay for the services of a deputy sheriff to keep NEW TO-DAY.
