WAS BATTERED BY HORRICANES Narrow Escape of the American Ship Cyrus Wakefield. { The Steam Pumps Kept Going Constantly for Over Sixty Days. There Was Never Less Than Three Feet of Water in the Hold Off Cape Horn. The American ship Cvrus Wakefield, which is now being overhavled at the Steuart-street wharf, had a narrow escape on her last voyage. For sixty days there was never less than three feet of water in the hold, and the steam pumps were kept oing constanily. When the coast of Cal- | ifornia was reached more heavy weather was encountered, and in consequence the vessel's séams cpened more and more, and at times Captain Henry feared that his vessel would go down boaily. Off the Kiver Piaite the Wakefield was caught in a hurricane that blew away nearly a whole sult of sails and strained the vessel terri Captain Henry made a thorough examination of the hull and in spite of the fact that the veszel was leaking he decided to ho!d ou. Twice the attempt was made to round the Horn, but the vessel was driven back. ing made her leak a little more, and the captain decided that if the third attempt failed he would run to Montevideo for re- | pairs. On the third attempt the Wakefield got | into the Pacific, but that did not end her | troubles. Anotber gale was encountered and the steam and hand pumps had to be kept going night and day. At this point | 99 men out of 100 would have run for the nearest port, but the captain of the Wake- field held on and brought his vessel to her destination. A considerable portion of the vessel’s carge was damaged and some of it i use- less. When nearly all of it was out the | ship was put on Hunters Point drydock for an overhauling. New water-ways were put in, the ceiling was wedged fore | and aft, quarter stanchioLs were putin on each side, the hanging knees in the 'tween decks were reboited, a new main-deck beam was added and new hatch combings put on, the decks were calked and the hull was stripped. calked and coppered. | The spars also suffered in the gale, and a new mizzen-mast, main topmast, lower main yard and topgallant yard bad to be put in. The timber used 1n the waterways has a history. It was 24x24x117 and came from Wasnington. It was on exhibiiion during the Midwinter Fair, and the gen- eral opinion was that no other country in | the world could proauce such a pur!_acl‘ W. A. Boole, who is repairing | timber. z the Wakefield, purchssed it and whip- sawed it into two timbers, each 12x24x117. In order to get them into the vessela | port had to be cut in her bow. Other timbers 65 feet long were :carfed onto these immense timbers and the whole placed in position on each side of the ship. Hydraulic presses held the timbeis down while they were fastened 'o the lower hanging knees with four-foot bolts. Then they were square-fastened both inside ana out, During her overbauling the Wakefield’s timbers were bored and not a rotten plank Each buffet- | broke.

James W. Chard, mailing clerk in the | newspaper department in Station D, at | tne ferry, has been detected in stealing small sums of money from the Govern- ment. He was arrested vesterday by Postoffice Inspectors Munro and Thrall | and taken before United States Commis- sioner Heacock, who held the prisoner to answer before the Grand Jury to a charge of embezziement. Chard bhad been on the substitute list for about a year and a half. About five months ago he was placed in the mailing department. He had charge of smail collections of postage on newspa) ers, and it was his duty to write the receipts in a book so arranged with carbon paper as to [ make three copies. was given to the person paying the money, one copy was kept as a record in the office, and the tiird copy together with the canceled newspaper stamps was sent to the Postoffice Department in Washington. The Postoffice inspectors diccov-red erasures and rewritings on the cffice copy and quietly made investigations, whic | led to the discovery of young Chard’ | reculations. It wasfound that after tea | ing off the receipt and handing it to the person paying the postage, Chard erased figures in the two copies in the book and substituted other figures therefor. Thus, in the following entry (the name of the | newspaper being fictitiou~), “Rustic Press, 555 pounds, $5 55, the secona five in both sums were erased and a ciphersubstituted, making the number of pounds 505 and the | amount §5 05, thus enabling Chard to put 50 cants into his pocket. The prisoner is only twenty-two years | old, and his father is beartbroken over the disgrace of his son. The young man, on | beingz taken before the inspectors, broke | down and confessed his ruilt. | The total amount of his stealings will | not be more than $100. His bonds were | fixed at $500. s the right | e | One of these copies | | she will be placed again in the coasting | trade. | The steam-schooner Noyo has been | taken off the berth for Copper River ana will also go back into the coasting trade.

Stilwell. ‘;A Friend of Valet Herbert Clark Acted as a Private Detective.] The Son of the Dead Millionaire Was Anxious About His Father's Movements, The fact that Charles Fair, son of the deceased millionaire, had his father under | detective surveillance about the time of his marriage 1n 1895 was brought out in a | smt that was tried in Justice Groezin- | ger’s court yesterday. C. J. Stillwel, the private detective of Delmas-Young fame, was sued by A. G. Reddan for $299 for services rendered as a | detective. | From the testimony it appeared that Charles Fair was anxious to know of his father's movements and language regard- ing himself and put the matter in Stil- | well’s hands. Reddan testified that Stil- | well, finding that e was a friend of | Hernert Clark, Senator Fair's valet, em- | ployea him to ‘‘reach” the valet and find | out what the Senator was saying about | things that interested the son. He was | also, if possible, to arrange a meeting be- tween Cnarles Far and Clark. Stilwell, he said, had agreed to re- | munerate him handsomely, vut all he re- | ceived was $37 50, which was advanced to pay the expense of taking Clark to the theater and other places of amusement, | For his forty-two days’ work he received | nothing. | Charles Fair testified that he had em- | ployed Stilwell to do certain work, and thatin an itemized bill rendered by Stil- well he was charged $100 for the services rendered by Reddan. Detective Curtin testified that such se-v- ices as those rendered by Reddan were onably worth $5 perdsy and expen-es. Detective Stilweil tesiified that he had never employved Reddan, but that the lat- ter bad goné to work on the case in the expecta ion of receiving a position at the | hanas of Charles Fair. The court took the case under advise- ment. - AGAINST THE DENS. Arguments Befors the Health and Police Commlttes Yesterday. Rev. Father Otis of the Paulist Fathers and Attorney Shadburne addressed the Health and Police Committee of the Board of Supervisors yesterday on the subject of closing the disreputable dens on Quincy and St. Marys streets. Both claimed that the streets as they are now populated are a disgrace to the city and a menace to the morals of the communaity. The committee stated that it would make a close examination of the subject and take it up again at the next meeiing. —_————— L¢'s Full of Spice To-day’s News Letter is full of bright, interesting matter. IL pays caustic edi- | torial respects to Insurance Commissioner Clunfe; gives Congressman Maguire and other candidates for Governor good ad- vice; tells a dozen stories on prominent citizens, and prints the breeziest Athwart the Sky, ‘When the sun ceases to shine over the hilltop and bathe the valley beyond in a flood of go'den light, when the reincar- nated spirit of the renowned Christopher Colunibus shall discover to mankind its dense stupidity by a futile endeavor to quaff the water of life from Mayor Phe- ian’s now famous fountain, when Buck- ley’s name shail be painted 1n crimson letters athwart the zenith with a goose- quill, then, and then only, say the leaders of the local Populistic party, will they affi'iate, fuse or monkey in any manner whatever with another political party for the purpose of gaining political prestige. The Populists are sore, there can’t be the least dcubt of it. The fact that they have feit so for some time is an open secret. It makes no difference 1o them who knows it, either. It is a common subject of conversation in their meetings, so common, in fact, that several fistic fr. cases bave been the iamentable result. There have been fights and rumors of fights, Several men have dropved out, others lave been forced out and many have fallen out. Not very long ago Burnette G. Haskell got mixed up with one of the s.reetcars, his fervid oratory availed him not and he lay on a bed of pain for some time. While there h's thoughts were labored and he finally concluded when he s able to return to ihe People’s parnty wigwam that his mission was not to bring peace, but a swerd. Then came the trouble that has nearly disrupted the party. And John C. Gore still remains to be settled with. But a change 1s gradually stealing o’er the spirit of the Populistic dream. ihey are now thinking that the best thing to do is to quit bickering over the mournful resuits of the lsst tusion, local and na- tioual, znd get ready for the coming cam- paign. Their armor 8 to be repaired ana burnisbled, their stock of weapons—Gov- ernment ownership oI everything werih baving, the initiative, tue referendum, 1he imperative mandate and soon, ad 1 finitum—is to be revlenished and they will go forth to do and die in the cause o! reform. In the language of George D, Gillespt ““This thing of the lamb and the lion lying down together may be all right, but we mean to s ein the future that the lamb is not on the inside of the lion.” The address issued to Populists by the executive committee of the State com- mittee of the party, published in vester- day’s CALL, is said to represent the opinion of the rank and file of the whole State. {t was hinted yesierday in pretty strong terms that this document owes its origin 10 the graphite of Thomas V. Cator. This being taken us a fact, how Mr. Cator fee!s on thesubject is preity clear. Conditions remaining the sameas they did in the last campaign, he will take no fusion in his without an appetizer and deo torize-r. Then there is Dr. George W. Daywalt. He basalways been con<idered one of the most conscientious mea in the party, and. until lately, cne of its best workers.” What he says mav be taken as cousis.ent, for he was one of the stronge-t opponents of fusion as it was carried out. In addition to using his influence in this direction as chairman of the last couniy committee, he carried the fight to St. Louis as a dele- gate to the National Populist Convention and addressea an open letter to Bryan on the subject, asking him to be consisient and come out and lead the reform forces with no cloak. “My practice has consumed =0 much of my time that I have not meddled in poli- tics for a good while,” said rhe doctor yes- terday, “but I was opposed to the princi- vles of the last fusion, and under thesame conditions will be of the same mind in the future. Neither do I think thedismal les. XEW TO-DAY. son of the last campaien will fail of re- sult. ‘Those the most eager for fusion are now chary of it 3 E. 8. Barney thinks the late messaze or address is rood enouzh to express what he thinks personally. In his opinion it is “'a clever proposition.’ ‘“There are a good many of the reform parties I would be willing to fuse with,” he said, *'such as the Social Democracy. 1 bave always been of thut berief, but it 18 | a mistake to think there was any fusion with the Buckleyites. Certain Buckiey m>n came before us for our indorsement, and they got it because nobody in our party hapuened to want to run. They realized full well that they had not the ghost of a show, and believed if these | Buckleyites wanted to be submerged they shouid be permiited 1o follow their own sweet wiil. Why, we even indorsed some of the Raineyiies for the same reason."” This view of Mr. Barney 1s a novel one, and doubtless causes him to look on the results of fusion with a kindeg eye than most of his colleagues. There is little doubt that many of them would sleep bet- ter if they counld bring their minds to this righteous conclusion. g But George D. Gillespie, who was de- pored from the position ot secretary of the county committee under tue Haskell re- Rime on suspicion of looking on the wine of fusion when it was red, can’t believe just as Mr. Barney does. This is what ne savs: “The People’s party has reached the con- clusion ihat lusion on the lines of ths last | campaign is an utter failure. The rank and file of the party would not consent to it again under any condition. Under cer- tain conditions iusion with a desirable element might be carrisd ont. The &x- amiiner 100k many votes away irom the party while ostensibly favoring fusion by | generally advising the voting of the | Democratic ticket. Many good Populists | thought from this that the votes might not be ageregated, and voted the Demo- cratic ticket, ‘“Notwithstanding this the Secretary of | State’s official recister shows that the Populists got 23,000 votes in this State, and we know now that we are stronger than we ever were before. But there is to be no more love feasiing between the lamb and the lion, with the lamb jor the feast.”” Carleton H. Johnson has always op- posed the idea of fusion and is more bitter toward it now than ever. As for Burrette G. Haskell, he repre- | sents the political thermomieter. His posi- tion as boss depends on it. When the rarly is azainst fosion his voice can be der:;nded on to decry itas po:itively wicked.
