TWO OVERDUE COLLIERS REACH PORT N SAFETY Czarina Had a Hard Time of It. STRIKE ON THE NIPPON MARU WHITE ENGINEERS HAVE A ROW WITH THE JAPS. Commissioners Object to Spring Valley Charges—Trouble Over the Burying of a Sailor. The steam colllers Czarina and Welling- ton reached rort yesterday after a most | tempestuous passage from Puget Sound. During nineteen hours of such weather as Captain Collins says he has never seen the equal of on this coast, the Czarina made eighteen miles. Saturday night it blew a hurricane and everything mov- able on the decks was washed away. The chocks under the boats were washed out and nothing was left to hold them but the lashings. The waves that came over the steamer broke in the coverings of the Loats and they were still filled with Erater as the Czarina steamed up the ay. The side lights were washed away and Saturday night when the waves were breaking clean over the bridge the head light could not be hoisted and a man had to be stationed on the bridge ready to fire off torches in case of an emergency. Be- tween Coos Bay and Yaquina Bay a large quantity of new lumber was passed through. Some of it was deck and some rough timbers and Captain Collins is of the opinion that it was some deckload that was washed away during the storm. The Wellington had a similar experience to the Czarina and the other colliers as they come in are sure to have tales of woe men will commence next | to tell, Valu- | sful | the Japanese steamer Nippon Maru. | white engineers say the Japaness There is trouble in the engine room of The en- gineers are an ignorant set, not knowing the first rudiments of marine engineering, and until efficient assistants are given them they will refuse duty. On the Nip- npion of the Pacific { pon Maru there are four white engineers. Chief Whitburn, Second Gledden, Johnstone and Fourth Howsagoe.

Gledden is Mary's Hospital and none of back unless we are given proper as: ‘We stood it during the trip out from England because we were to get extra help on our arrival in Japan, but the help never came and now we hav. struck. That’s all there is to the matter. If the Nippon Maru people seek to sup- ply the place of the striking engineers from the ranks of the local engineers they will be confronted with the same diffi- culty, as an American engineer will most certainly refuse to work under conditions which have caused an Englishman to kick over the traces. The Harbor Commissioners met yester- day, and discussed the payment of the Spring Valley Water Company’s bill for water supplied the State on the front. President Colnon thought the charge was excessive, and said a flat rate should be established, more ‘particularly as" tire water company was using the State's wharves for the carrying of mains. The water company’s representative said the commission could make no plea on ac- count of the mains being on the wharves, because they had a right to lay them on a public highway. *“Not on the State ‘" broke in ex-Governor Budd, present for the first time in the capacity of the board's attorney. “You cannot lay those mains on State property without a permit.”” It was finally decided low the matter to go over, and in the meantime the board's attorney and the water company’s legal advisers will hold a_conference. Bids for the erection of a shed for Wells, Fargo & Co., between piers 3 and 4, were ordered calied for. At the next meeting of the board the chances are that the name of A. Page Brown as architect of the new ferry depot will be ordered added to the foundation-stone, The steamer City of Peking, which left here on December 23 last, only reached Kobe, Japan, yesterday. She was in col- lision with some unknown vessel and was slightly damaged. N The steamer Doric sailed for the Orient vesterday. She carried a large quantity of medical supplies for the soldiers at Manila. Officers P. Mahoney and James Mackey of the Harbor police had to assist at the recovery of a body from the Portuguese boarding-house yesterday. A sailor named Richard died there, and as he had a snug bank account, John Gomez, the boarding master, proceeded to bury him and ad- minister on his estate. The Public Ad- ministrator heard of the death and took a hand in the matter, with the result that the police had to be called in before Go- mez would give up the bod MRS. REGAN IN OOURT. The Hearing Continued for a Week and Bail Refused for Her Appearance. Mrs. Elizabeth Regan appeared in Judge Graham’s court yesterday morning for her preliminary examination on the charge of murdering mounted -oliceman Thomas H. Kennedy at her father’'s house, 232 Chenery street. Attorney Long represented her, and Attorney . arrett was present to assist Prosecuting Attor- ney Wentworth. Barrett has been en- gaged by Kennedy's relafives to look af- ter their interests. The courtroom was crowded with peo- ple anxious to get a look at the defend- ant’s face, but she thwarted their pur- pose by being heavily veiled in black. Three of her sisters sat beside her. When the case was called Attorney Long answered that he was ready to pro- ceed, but the prosecution asked for a con- tinuance for a week so as to make prepa- rations for the examination. The Judge granted the continuance. Then Long Piade a strong plea for bail for the de- fendant, alluding to the fact that the Cor- oner’'s jury had brought in a verdict of justifiable homicide, but the Judge de- clined to entertain the motion and the de- fendant was sent back to prison. GUILTY YET ACQUITTED. Smuggler Mallaby Succeeded in Hyp- notizing the Federal Grand Jury. To the great surprise of the United States Attorney and all others conversant with the facts, the Federal Grand Jury yesterday unanimously ignored the charge of smuggling made against Dr. Z. T. Mal- laby, a military surgeon, who arrived from Manila on the Government transport Senator last Saturday. Mallaby wes guilty, and confessed his guilt. He was caught in the act, and when searched on the wharf abont forty yards of silk cloth was found wrapped around hig body underneath his clothing. He said that he had bought the silk as a present for his wife, and that was too poor to pay the duty on the silk. Tx-Assistant United States Attorney Bert Schlesinger appeared for .uallaby, and insisted on the prisoner's constitu- tional right to appear before the Grand Jury. Mallaby was granted an audience, told his story confessing his guilt, and urged that as he had, constructively at least, fought for his country, it would be no more than right to let him go. They thought so, too, ignored the bill and Mai- laby and his lawyer walked away, the former with his tongue in his cheek and the latter with a wink. ———————— HIS OWN LAW!EE. Joe Castro’s Original Way of Collect- ing His Wages Without Cost. Joe Castro is a son of Sunny Italy, 25 years old, and his knowledge of the En- glish language is equal to his knowledge of the law. This is why Prison-Keeper Callinan at the California street station did not understand what Castro said to him yesterday through the bars concern- ing the cause of his arrest. Castro_was employed by a fish vender named Ernest-Vannucchi in the Grand Central Market. He alleged that Van- nucchi owed him $11 9% balance of his monthly wages. Castro closed the stall last Monday night and removed the cash register to the fish stall of a creditor of his employer. Vannucchi finding his reg- ister and Castro missing yesterday morn- ing lodged a complaint at the California street police station charging Castro with grand larceny. MEREDI'I'—H WAS WARNED OF FONG SUEY’S PLANS EVIDENCE TO SHOW THAT HE PAID NO HEED. Damaging Facts Told by the Man ‘Who Notified the Chinese Bureau. The special agents' investigating com- mission did a big day's work yesterday, having examined about half a dozen wit- nesses in the matter of the corrupt prac- tices alleged against the management, of the Chinese Bureau. Interpreter Ricketts, called “Doc” by those who love him, was asked as to the routine duties of the bureau and the manner of conducting the examinations of Chinese immigrants on board the steamers at the Mail dock. His testimony did not reveal anything new. Arthur H. Lotto, a newspaper reporter, was the most important witness of the day. His testimony threw light upon the shifty and evasive methods of Meredith and his supporters, and brought out the fact that eredith had allowed the Chinese procuress, Fong Suey Wan, to escape with his eyes open and with the knowledge that her friends were plan- ning for her escape. He told how he had called Meredith’'s attention to the neces- sity for making a complaint against the woman for the crime of importing female slaves into this country, since Fong Suey was being held only because she had not produced her papers at the time of the raid and therefore would be released by Commissioner Heacock as soon as her lawyers should produce her papers in court, which they were then preparing to do. He said that in reply to his warning Meredith winked one eye very cunningly and said, “We are getting up a great case against her.” On the next day the woman was taken by her attorney, who is a daily companion of Meredith in the bureau, before United States Commissioner Heacock, and her papers were produced In support of the motion to discharge her from the only charge made or pending, namely being unlawfully in the United States. She was accordingly at half-past 9 o’clock in the morning discharged so far as lay in the power of the Commissioner, that is, he agreed to report to United States Dis thict Judge de Haven in favor of her re- lease. The woman was then taken to the rooms of the United States Marshal on the floor below the office of the Chinese Bureau and kept there in the prisoners’ room in full view of all visitors until 2 o’clock in the afternoon, when she was taken before Judge de Haven and dis- charged. The witness testified further that he had been “informed by members of the press that Collector Jackson had in- formed them that Meredith had denied to the Collector that he had been so warned by Lotto.” The witness there- upon called on Meredith and wanted to know what he meant by making him (Lotto) a liar. Meredith denieg the stor; of his denial to the Collector, and offer, to go with the witness to the Collector and straighten the matter. When the witness informed Collector Jackson of what Meredith had said, the Collector declined to discuss the subject. Lotto also testified to ‘offensive lau- guage used by Meredith toward a re- Eoner of The Call because he had over- eard the reporfter asking Assistant United States Attorney Schlesinger whether Meredith had informed him that he (Meredith) or any’ one else had in- tended to place an _ additional charge agalnst Fong Suey Wan to hold her. fie added that a fight between the reporter and the bureau chief was averted by the interference of Jack Sherrard, chief clerk of the District Attorney. Mr. Sherrard catching hold of Meredith and hustling him into the corridor. Mrs. Sallie C. Pickens, who filed serious charges against Major Moore, will be ex. amined to-day. —_————— Robert Barr has a capital story in next Sunday’s Call. —_————— Money Orders Late at Night.

STRUCK AT IN THE DARK DESPERATE STRUGGLE FOR POS- SESSION OF A KNIFE. The Officer Succeeds in Placing the Handcuffs on His Antagonist and Then Finds His Coat Cut. An agile movement of Policeman John J. Moriarty saved him from occupying a slab in the Morgue early yesterday morn- ing. He dodged a bread knife with a keen blade nearly twelve inches long. Between 2 and 3 o'clock Policeman W. J. Smith noticed that the glass panels of the door of Willlam Eyb's saloon, 233A Stevenson street, were broken. He crawled through the window, and found that the place had been ransacked by a burglar. The money drawer had been broken open and was empty, and the bread knife and four bottles of whisky had been stolen. A boy from the Spreckels Market told Smith that a man had come out of the saloon a few minutes before and had turned down Fourth street. Just then the sergeant’s whistle sounded, and Smith went to meet him on Fourth street. After the sergeant left Smith saw a man come out of Donovan & Hourihan's saloon, Fourth and Jessie streets, which had been closed shortly after midnight, and he concluded he was the burglar. Smith went after him and the man commenced | to_run. Policeman Moriarty was coming down Market street at the time, and seeing the man running he suspected something was wrong. As the man approached he or- dered him to stop. Instead of doing so, the man made a rush at Moriarty and slashed at him with the bread knife. Mor- farty saw the knife in time to spring aslde, and the knife missed his body but cut a hole in his coat. Before the would- be murderer could recover himself Mori- arty struck him a blow on the neck that knocked him down. Moriarty spmnfi upon him, and a terrific struggle ensue for the possession of the kKnife. Moriarty succeeded in drawing his club, and a blow or two on the head made him master of the situation. He had just got the hand- cuffs on the man when Smith arrived. At the City Prison the man gave the name of James Phillips, a molder, living at 248 Tehama street. He is a big, strap- ping young fellow, much tallef and heav- ier than the plucky policeman. When searched 30 cents and a plugged quarter were found on him and the quarter was later identified by Eybs as having been taken from the money drawer. The | bread knife was also booked as evidence against him. The officers found that he had also broken into Donovan & Houri- han’s saloon, and two charges of bu glary were booked against him. He also suspected of breaking into King's store, 15 Fourth street, and stealing $4 or § from the till. It was entered during the early hours of the morning. Phillips is unknown to the police. | TO RELIEVE DR. STEBBINS. D b Rev. 8. W. Brook, a Celebrated Bos- ton Divine, to Take the First | Unitarian Pulpit. Rev. Stopford W. Brook of Boston, where for a number of years he has been the minister of the First Unitarian | Church, will occupy the pulpit of Dr. Steb- | bins for probably six months. -Dr. Brook | is the son of a distinguished English | clergyman of the same name, who was long chaplain to the Queen, and is a very scholarly divine. He has telegraphed his acceptance of the offer, and will leave | Boston on the 30th inst., arriving in this | city in time to preach at the First Unita- | rian Church the first Sunday in kebruary. | Dr. Horatio Stebbins, after long years of arduous and faithful work in the min- istry, finds it necessary to take a season of rest. He is still in good health, with mental facultles as clear as when the Starr King church first heard the voice of its eloquent minister, but he feels that a vacation from the pulpit is due him. In Dr. Brook the people of the First Unita- | rian Church will find a worthy successor to their old and popular pastor. —_——— WILL OF CHARLES M. CHASE. Valuable Estate Distributed Among Friends and Relatives. The will of the late Charles M. Chase, at one time president of the State Board of Agriculture, was filed for probate yester- day. In the will, which is dated May 8, 1897, the testator bequeaths his widow all his works of art and bric-a-brac, but asks, in event she does not care to retain them, that they be given the Crocker Art Gallery in Sacramento.

If there ad been an engine within call of tne place no such damage would have oc- curred, The loss of the property, together with the high rate of premium asked by the in- surance companies for the taking of a risk in any portion of the Sunnyside district, has prompted the owners of real estate to ask the Supervisors to provide tnat place with an engine and hose cart. e He Shot at the Nurse. Edward Forrest, an employe of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, re- siding at 224 Sagamore street, Ocean View, | took two shots at Mrs. Bridget Holbrook | at 1 o'clock yesterday morning. Forrest, who had been mdulmnf in strong arink, returned to his home in an ugly moo and commenced to abuse his stepchildren. The woman, who was nursing his sick wife, remonstrated, and Forrest picked up his pistol and fired two shots at her, {er of which took effect. Officers Dorn and Herve, on hearing the shots, placed Forrest under arrest and booked him on the charge of assault to commit mur-| der. | —_—————————— Edison tells how he started on his wonderful career of an inventor in next Sunday’s Call. ————————— Salvation Army Colony Work.

HELMONT’S VIOLIN RECITAL Gerome Helinont, a well grown lad of perhaps 13 or 14, appeared in short trous- ers at the Sherman & Clay Hall last night and played the violin. Master Helmont is a pupil and protege of Musin's, and his bowing and general manipulation of the instrument recalled that artist. The youngster draws a strong, firm tone, se- cure and easy; his execution is quite ad- mirable for one of his a’enrs. but his im- agination seems to find but little outlet in his performances, which are not- ably mechanical. He was assisted last night by Miss Grace Preston, a sturdy planist, and Miss Ida Simmons, a contral- to of good tone within a limited range. Other concerts will be given to-day and Saturday afternoon in the same hall. — e A Merchant’s Anniversary. Jacob Eppinger, one of the most promi- nent members of the Produce Exchange of this city, entertained about twenty of his friends at dinner at a fashionable rotisserie last evening in honor of the thirtieth anniversary of his membership in the exchange.
