The Amarapcora Has a Heavy Cargo on Her First Com- peting Voyage. CAPTAIN CAMERON'S YARN The Sealing Ship Glencona Drops Anchor in Harbor 21 Days From Yokohama. It was misty and thick outside the heads, and also inside, yesterday after- noou. A number of vessels which pre- ferred to square away for the Golden Gate under sail instead of tying up to a tug stood off shore waiting for clear weather and favorable wind. Among these is the bark Canada, which for the last twenty- four hours has found safety in plenty of sea room. An arrival of widespread interest to the Pacific Coast, as well as to the water front, yesterday, was that of the steamship Amarapoora, Captain Cameron, which tied up at pier 27 at the foot of Lombard street at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. The Amara- poora represents the line to Central Amer- ican ports in opposition to the Hunting- ton sieamers. She came in from Puget Sound ports to finish her cargo, and from the mountains of freight, comprising everything from railroad freight cars to boxes of crackers, piled up in the pier shed she will be able to finish her cargo all right, and make the first trip, so iar as cargo is concerned, a successful one. The Amarapoora was put on this run to divide the business and make the cold perspira- tion stand out on the strong box of the Huntington liners. The Amarapoora is a British tramp iron steamer of leviathan proportions. She looks built and equipped to ride any sea stiffly and gracefully, broadside on, and she looks big enough to ride the turbu- | lent ocean with head to the sea, as stately and unshaken as Telegraph Hill. This ship has never been into San Francisco harbor before, it is said. She put into Puget Sound, hailing from Japan. Captain Cameron’s mental condition as to Pacific Coast newspapersis in about the same state as cow’s milk after astorm. A sheet at Tacoma, with more respect for enterprise than facts, published, soon after Captain Cameron dropped anchor off the foot of Pacific avenue, a story to the effect that there had been a semi-mutiny aboard the Amarapoora on the cruise from the Flowery Kingaom, and .that a part of the crew was in irons. About this Cap- tain Cameron said: “The story was totally false. Idid not read the newspaper, but I could not avoid hearing aboutit. If icould nave gothold | of the man who published that yafn I'd have keel-bauled him or knocked him into & cocked-hat. A day or two later when one of them asked me how big this shipis, I told bim she was four miles long, her speed 150 miles an hour and that she carries nothing but gold and silver.” Then the captain chuckied softly to him- self, and added that the Amarapoora has accommodations for forty cabin passen- ers. The British ship Glencona, Captain Lynn, seventy-one days from Singapore, was towed in yesterday afternoon. She is in bailast and consigned to E. C. Evans. While coming in Captain Lynn read in a newspaper about the ship Arndelana mak- ing the passage from Yokohama in twenty-four days, which is considered very fast time for a sailer. He claimed to have beaten the Andelana out of sight, stating that twenty-one days ago he was off Yokohama. Captain Lynn neglected to get a bill of health at Singa- vore, and there will on that account be some delay at least in his entering the Custom-house here. Health Officer Dr. Blue said yesterday that he founa the ship all right, and that he could give the captain a pratique. Subsequently the captain must settle with the Collector of Customs. The ship L. G. Burgess will go to Oak- land to-day. She will be the first ship to tie up at the new coal bunkers up Oakland creek. Thomas P. Ryan, a politician and ex- corporal of the police iorce of this City who was stationed on the water front for a number of years, died of heart failure November 1, and was buried from his late residence, 1603 Mission street, last Tues- day in Hoiy Cross Cemetery.

The young man habituslly wore a di mond ring, a diamond stud, and carried a gold watch and chain. When the body was recovered all that was found on it was a pocket-knife, two white metal cases and one or two other pocket trinkets. He was also known to have a sum of mon The fact that all the valuables are missing supports the claim of the family and friends of the deceased that he met with foul play. Last evening Mr. Simon, his brother-in law, and Abe Beeligsoha, bis brother, re- fused to see reporters or further discuss the case. It was stated for them that there wWere no new develogmenu in the cas The autopsy was held yesterday at the Morgue by Autopsy Physician Morgan. It showed asphyxiation by submersion. There were no visible marks of violence on the body. The pody has been in the water such a length of time that it would be difficult to find such marks. The Morgue officials are still inclined to think the case was one of suicide. One of the main facts to support thi: theory is that the pockets of the clothing of the deceased were found loaded with Tocks, apparently for the purpose of insuring sinking. The rooms of the deceased at 309 Powell street have not yet been searched. No letters, however, were left there by the young attorney. Mr. Cohnreich, the pro- prietor, said last evening that Beelizsohn was in_ good circumstances, usually in good spirits, a young mean of fine charac- ter, not given to dissipation, and .that it 4 impossible for him to believe he com- mitted suicide. Dr. Trask, who treated Seeligsohn for a hoarseness of the voice, says he was incor- rectly reported by a morning paper in making him say that he had noticed aber- ration of mind in the young attorney. THE CITY THEATERS. There Will Be Many Attractions for Those Who Want to Go to the Playhouses To-Night. At the Baldwin Theater, where the legitimate drama held sway for some time, opera comique will be offered this evening. Della Fox with her company of artists will open with “The Little Trooper,”’ an adap- tation from the French by Ciay M, Greene, and present attractive music. At the California Theater there will be placed on the boards “Darkest Russia,” a romance of the Czar’s realm, in which will be shown many thrilling scenes of Rus- sizn life. The announcement is made that the play *‘is yivid incolor and stirring in plot.” There is a promise of a great deal of en- joyment for those who will visit the Co- lumbia Theater this evening. “The Peer- less Corinne,” as she is designated, will appear with a new company in ‘‘Hendrick Hudson Jr.,”” &n extravaganza in which sixty persons will take part. “Reaping the Harvest'’ will be the at- traction at the Alcazar Theater this even- ing.

Mrs. Catherine Quigley Dies From Injuries Keceived Last Wednesday. Mrs. Cathberine Quigley, a widow 65 years of age, died in" her home, 7 Verona street near Third, from the result of in- juries sustained in a fall down a flight of stairs last Wednesday. Dr. Rottanzi was called to attend the injurea woman, and at first it was thought she would recover. She had sustained serious internal in- juries, however, and all freatment proved without avail. The case was reported to the Coroner’s office, but as death resulted solely from the result of the accident an inquest was waived. MARY YEARS IN SERVICE Twenty-Filth Anniversary of the San Francisco Fusilesrs. The Quarter of a Century Veterans Were Presented With Tokens of High Esteem. The twenty-fifth anniversary, banquet and ball of the San Francisco Fusileers’ Mutual Benefit Fund was held on Friday evening at California Hall. The San Krancisco Fusileers, Second Regziment of Infantry, G. C., was organized on No- vember 6, 1871. On June 1, 1881, it was re- organized as the San Francisco Fusileers, Battery C, Second Regiment of Artillery, N.G.C. Again on December 7, 1895, an- other change took place and the old com- pany became the San Francisco Fasileers, Company I, Sixth Infantry Batallion, N. G. C. The last change was made two days after the last date and the body be- came simply Company 1, First Infantry Reziment, N. G. C. Througk all these changes the members have held together and several years ago they formed a beneficiary auxiliary to the body known as the Mutual Benefit Fand. It is the custom to meet once a year and have a good time as in former days and such was the nature of the last anniver- sary reunion. At the banquet table every- thing that could tempt the appetite was Admiral Belknap, whose personal attend- | ant he has been for years.

LUTHER’S ANNIVERSARY. Rev. Oliver C. Miller of the Church of the Holy Spirit on the Reformer. Yesterday the four hundred and thir- teenth anniversary of the birth of Martin Luther was observed in an appro- priate manner at the Lutheran Church of the Holy Spirit, Jackson street near Buchanan. Rev. Oliver C. Miller preached an appropriate sermon on the life of the great reformer. He quoted Luther as say- ing that the strength of a nation was-not in its armies and fortifications, but in the integrity and uprightness of the people. He smd that Luther velonged to all Christendom and he bimseli sorrowed that his own name should be given to any particalar church. The Augsburg confes- sion: bad become the basis of all the Prot- estant churches and could not possibly ad- mit of that narrow interpretation given it by some zealous Lutherans and high churchmen. .

R STRICKEN WITH APOPLEXY. Death of Judge Erwin T. Case at the Receiving Hospital. An old gentleman was picked up on Franklin and Sacramento streets Friday night by Policeman Charleston. He was in a dazed condition. He was sent in the patrol wagon to the City Prison, where he gave his name as Erwin T. Case, an attor- ney. As he did not seem to recover, Sergeant Bidwell sent him to the Receiving Hospi- tal Saturday morning, and it was at once seen that he was suffering from a stroke of apovlexy. He died yesterday morning. The deceased was an ex-judge and lived at 1723 Clay street. He was 57 years of age and leaves a son, who i§ an attorney, and two daughters, one a physician an the other a nurse.

Y GHT, The Means to Be Furnished Out of This Year's Appropriation. A New Cross Road From Point Lobos Avenue to the South Drive, PLANTING MADRONE AND HOLLY Many Swimmers in November—An Acronaut Who Weat Up in a Drizzling Rain. There is more than a probability thata portion of this year's appropriation for Golden Gate Park will be used for the purpose of lighting the park with elec- tricity. There has been a demand for such an improvement for about two years and the matter has been under considera- tion for some time. Those interested ad- vanced so far in the matter that last week they requested Superintendent McLaren to communicate with the officials of the principal parks in the East for the pur- pose of obtaining from them the fullest information on the subject of park illu- mination. Letters have been sent and | when the information is at hand all the methods will be carefully studied, and it islikely that the one offering the greatest advantages will be usdopted. As yet the Commissioners .are undecided as to whether the ares should be illumined all night or only during the early hours. A new crossroad has been built and two irregular ones that were laid out in the fong ago have been closed. ,The new one commences at D street and Twenty-fourth avenue, which is west of the prayer-book cross, and, traversing the park, leads to the southern drive. This new road con- nects on the north with Point Lobos ave- nue. The ones that havs been closed were transverse roacs east of the new one, and led by irregular lines to the western end of the lake. The winding path from D street and Seventeenth avenue that leads to the boathouse is still open. In the immediate vicinity of the new road a section of the park will soon be planted with madrone and California holly, and when these trees, which have for six years been growing in the propa- gating section, are iransplanted aad at- tain a fair height they will, with their bright foliage, dark bark and carmine ber- ries, prove an added attraction. It is a | remarkable fact that these trees do not commence to develop to any extent until after they have attained the sixth year of growth. Tbe day after the election there was sent to the park zoo a magnificent deer, bearing a card on which was written in bold letters, *‘William McKinley.’* During the early part of the day there ‘were a good many senple in the park, but when it commenced to drizzle at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, there was a hasty de- parture from ail sections for the nearest car lines. There was a large number of visitors to the conservatory to view the beautiful dis- vlay of chrysanthemums, which were in full bloom and appeared to better advan- tage than on the previous Sunday. The reopening of the museum hasagain been postponed ‘o a time not yet deter- mined upon, in consequence of the non- arrival of special locks to be used in clos- ing the many new cases in which a great number of exhibits have been installed. The number of visitors to the ocean beach was unusually small, owing to the weather, but the majority of those who did go went into the baths, and the swim- mers were not few. Up to 3 o’clock 863 individuals, in addition to those holding commutation tickets, indulged in tank | swimming—not a bad shewing for the love of salt sea bathing in November. A 12- inch pipe is to be placed in the interior of the baths for the purpose of forcing hot air through it, so as to maintain an even temperature of 74degrees. On very warm days cold air will be forced through this gipn to reduce the temperature. Last aturday, the first day that the buths were thrown open free to the school children, 161 pubtic school pupils were admitted to view the wonders in the big building. Despite the unpieasant day there were many people at the Chutes, and the per- formance outdoor and indoor went on as on aclear sunshiny day.
