The transport Zealandia docked at Pa- cific street whart yesterday. The vessel had a fearful time of it during the voy | age from Manila, and she shows the signs of her battles with the elements. No sooner would one storm die out than an- other would come up, and the stout steamer did not escape them until the Farallones were passed.

Chief Steward Pen- field had all his white suits and shirts ruined by a bottlé of red and another of black ink and a bottle of mucilage break- ing among them. The last time she came back from Ma- nila the Zealandia was caught in a ty- | phoon and had to put into Nagasaki for | repairs. The crew all vow that this voy age was even worse than the first and they never want to go through another | one like it. The Tennessee boys who went from here | to Manila on the Zealandia had a splendid time on the way down, and a very hand- some testimonial was presented to Chiet Steward Penficld. To Captain Dowdell the | officers presented a magnificent silver cup which stands over two feet high. On it is the following inscription: CAPTAIN THOMAS DOWDELL, Master S. 8.

It was late in May when the Crown of India was towed into Sydney harbor, and it was December 11 before she sailed again for San Francisco. New spars had to be procured delay. The run here was made in the fast time of seventy-six days. She anchored off Meiggs wharf, and during the .after- noon the revenue cutter Rush drifted down on her. The latter had been over to California City for target practice and to drill the crew. Coming back to the front the Rush was anchored near the Crown of Indla. The cutter's anchor did not hold and she drifted down on the ship. | Tugs separated them before much dam- age was done. The British bark Cardigan Castle ar- rived from Newcastle, N.

A _new steamer has just been launched at Stockton for the California Navigation and Improvement Company. She has been named J. R. McDonald after the ex-State Treasurer. She is 105 feet long, 24 feet broad, 5 feet deep and draws 16 inches of water. The old steamer Newport is going back into_the coasting trade. Away back In | the seventies she was built by the farm- ers of Anaheim to run in opposition to the Pacific Coast Steamship Company. After a time the two concerns amalgamated, and for years the Newport sailed under the steamship company’s flag. Then she was sold to the Pacific Steam Whaling Company and made two cruises to-the Arctic, arriving home on the last occa- sion in October. She has now been cut down and thoroughly overhauled, and when she next appears on the front she will be a steam. schooner and ready for ! busine: The transport Roanoke is to sail at p. m. to-day for Manila. Captain Kidston goes out in command and Captain Fer- guson will be his first officer. Dr. Dig- gins will be the vessel's surgeon and genial Tom James the chief steward. Members of the Grand Army of the Re- public visited the lowa yesterday after- noon. One hundred of the members were taken out on the launches Amy and Wil- liam D and they had a most enjoyable time. The battleship will be open to the public again to-day, and the launches will run as usual from the Folsom-street float. William Seeckings was treated at the | Harbor Receiving Hospital yesterday for a painful cut on the right arm. He was climbing a flagpole at the corner of Sroadway and Montgomery avenue to fix the halyards. When half way up the pole he slipped and began to slide back. When twelve feet from the ground his arm caught in a projecting piece of tin and tore the skin badly. The shock caused Seeckings to drop to the ground, from which he was picked up unconscious and hurried to the hospital. . | Chased With a Knife. Mrs. A. Cassini, who has a fruitstand at 2028 Fillmore street, swore to a com- plaint in Judge Treadwell's court yester- day for the arrest of Joe Jillio on the charge of assault with a deadly weapon.
