Her mother, Mrs, I V. Reste, who resides at 1035 Market street, heard from her daughter by tel one on Saturday. There is some rea- mother evidently knows, wish to disclose.

When asked when her dnurhtor would return she said that she did not expect her to come back at all, and she ex- pressed very little concern for her wel- fare.

Knock-Out Drops for a Sailor. It blew a hurricans outside on Satur- day gnd Sunday, and vessels that start- ed north had a terrible time of it. The collier Mackinaw, for the sound, was sighted rolling in the trough of the sea | with her engines stopped; the steamer National City, for Unga Island, got such a buffeting that she had to put back for repairs, and the barkentine Ruth, from | the Southern seas, had her decks swept | while making port. The Natfonal City was under charter to | the Sitka Consolidated Gold Mining Com- pany, and sailed for Unga on Saturday | | morning. 1t was blowing fresh when the | | start was made, and as soon as the| steamer was well outside and straighten- | ed out on her course the wind bhegan to | increase. When Point Reyes was reach- ed it was blowing a gale from the north- west, and the stout little craft was bare- 1y holding her own nst it. The wav and one of them | swept her fore and | made its way into the cabin, flooding it. | When the National City was seven | | miles northwest of Point Reyes a tre- | mendous roller broke aboard. It broke | | in the doors and windows of the engine | room, carried away some of the state- | room doors, flooded the forecastle and engine room and drove the firemen on deck. For a while the vessel lay like a log on the water, and was at the mercy of the waves. The firemen immediately went back to thelr posts, and kept steam on the boilers until the vessel was run | into Drakes . An examination of | the vessel was there made, and Captain Dettmers decided that the best thing he could do was to return to San Francisco for repairs. The engine room was after which fixed and some repairs mad the vessel came on here, arriving yesterday | morning. _ She was docked at Channél street, and to-day will be overhauled to | whether it is negbssary to unload her - or_not. The barkentine Ruth made a very fast run of thirty-six days from Guam, and ran Into the hurricane off Point Reyes. Captain Challeston reports seeing a fleet of vessels off shore making heavy weather of it. He saw the collier Mack- inaw, and her engines were stopped and she was rolling gunwales under in the trough of the sea. Half an hour later the Mackinaw got under way and began to | forge slowly ahead. Captain Challeston | thinks something s wrong with her | machinery. The vessels that were_the bark Prus Occidental, Samoa, Mary Buhn and Al Eureka; Mackinaw Bartlett for Bristol B: El Rio Rey for Bowens Landing, Daisy Rowe for Coos Bay, Eureka for Coquiile River and the | Westport for Point Arena. All of these vessels must have had a lively time of it in the storm. The British ship Pyrenees, seventy- three days from Newcastle, N. 8. £ arrived yesterday. On March 17 the ves- sel was off the Mitcheil group of islands. The natives came out {o the vessél, and the captain presented them with some books and pape The Pyrences also caught the storm, and both captain and erew were glad to make port. Nearly half the crew on the Towa are on the sick list, are_loudly protesting. All of them seem to have more or less malaria, and they are clamoring for the removal of the shi to better quarters. The lowa is lying o the Union Iron Works, and is just in the position for the crew 1o get the full bene- fit of the Channel street sewers. This stench eddies around the warship twice a day, and when it is 20t in motion a few odors from Butchertown are wafted north on the breeze. Not very long ago the battle ship 0r(-¥on was lying in the same place, and all her crew were more or less sick with malaria. In conse- quence the vessel had to be removed to an anchorage off Harrison street, and the necessary repairs made there. Captain Thomas Wallace of the Walla ‘Walla takes charge of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company’s wharves to-day. He has been thirty-three years in the ser- vice of the compaay, and a better liked master never trod a ship's deck. He was offered the superintendency of the wharves three times, and it was only un- der pressure that he now accepts the po- sition. P. W. O'Donnell, a sailor on the United States ship Badger, was taken to the Harbor Hospital vesterday by an Ameri- can District Tel egraph messenger boy. The latter said he found the seaman on the corner os California and Front. O'Donnell told him that he had been ent out on Saturday ia for the sound, the Mary Winkeiman, | Blanchard for Tacoma, R. W. battleship and the men given carbolic acid by a woman in a dive, and that he was afraid he was going to die. At the hospital Dr. Shaw pumped the sailor out and put him to bed. ’Fhe man was in a stupor, and the doctor is of the opinfon that he was given knock- out drops. The Hawaiian bark Willscott arrived from Honolulu yesterday. The first part of the voyage was against contrary winds, but during the last ten days the hark averaged 200 miles a day. The Wiii- scott was refused a Hawalian register in Honolulu, and the matter is golng to be fought out in the courts here. CHARLES H. LEAVITT DEAD. One of San Francisco’s Earliest Me- chanics Passes Away. Charles H. Leavitt, one of San Fran- cisco’s earliest mechanics, died at his res- idence, 620 Ellis street, yesterday morning at the age of 70 years. The deceased was one of the pioneers who in his time and day helped to build San Francisco from a tented village to a great metropolitan city. He arrived in San Francisco in the month of January, 180, at the age of 20 vears, coming from York, Me. Immediate- Iy on his arrival he associated himself with the Pioneer Iron Works, then located on Jackson street, near Montgomery, and nce set to work in turning out such s were then in use for the build- His first and princi- pal heavy contract was in casting the iron doors, still in use, for the Broadway jail and the old City Hall prison. From Jack- son street the Ploneer Iron Works w. moved to 227 foundry was located for a number of vears and known as “Kittredge & Leav- its Safe and Lock Manufactory.” At this place considerable work was turned out for the then modern buildings going up in and about San Francisco. One of the heavy contracts undertaken and on work for the State Capitol dome at cramento, which was put in place un- er the immediate supervision of Leavitt. The construction of all the steel vaults now in use at theSafe Deposit building at California and Montgomery streets, the construction of the gas tanks and piping in use at the Hotel del Monte, the iron work for the Palace and Baldwin hotels, with several other buildings, were the work of the deceased. In former years the only safes in in this city, and on the coast for that matter, were those turned out by Kittredge & Leavitt. As an expert on locks Leavitt had mno superior in his day, and even up to a short time before his death his_ services were invariably called for by bankers and merchants to open safes that had become refractory in their workings or where combinations had been lost. One of Leavitt’s room-mates for a num- ber of years was “Billy” O'Brien of bo- nanza fame, when that genfal old man con- ducted a whisky saloon in connection with Millionaire Flood on Washington street. Injuries to his eyesight caused him to retire from business about ten years ago, since which time he lived quietly with his wife and two daughters at the place where he died. His funeral will be held to-morrow at 2 o'clock from his late resi- dence, with Interment at Masonic Ceme- tery. -~ | Beale street, where the ’puxhed to a satisfactory finish was the | ONLY ONE BID MADE FOR THE CLIFF HOUSE C. E. Loose Alone in| the Field. 5 HIS OFFER TO BE REDUCED CONSIDERS HIS ORIGINAL fIG- | URE TOO HIGH. | Pabst Brewing Company Not a Com- petitor, but Interested in the | Furniture of the Sea- side Resort. W. A. Loose of Bodie, Cal., is authority | for the statement that his brother, C. E. | Loose of Provo, Utah, is the only bidder | in the fleld for the Cliff House property. | In a published article it was made to ap- | pear that there was a spirited competition among local and Eastern capitalists for | the acquisition of the historic resort. C. E. Loose, who has amassed a fortune in mining, desired the property as an in- vestment and bid $100,000 for it. Accord- ing to his brother, who is at present in this city, this is the only written bid that has been filed with A. J. Rich & Co., who are engineering the sale of the site. In discussing the matter yesterday Mr. Loose said: “I am quite posjtive that my brother’s bid of $100,000 for the Cliff House property is the only one that has been made. I have been busy prosecuting inquiries on the proposition and have communicated to him the result of my observations, which may cause him to materially scale down the price he has offered. “In the first place the property cost in all but $50,000, and the Pabst Brewing Company put in about $15.000 worth of fur- niture. The only interest of the beer con- | cern is to get back the money it put in. | The report that there was a scramble for | the property was made probably for the | very purpose of bringing other prospec- tive purchasers in the field. The brewing | company has made no offer of $150,000. | “My brother has considerable ready | | | cash which he desires to invest, but he wants a fair interest for his money. I have since learned that the rental of the Cliff House, which was originally $1000 a month, has been reduced to $700, and even | at the lower figure the rent is not always | forthcoming and is now several months in | arrears. It was my brother’s intention to | spend $25,000 additional in improving the | seaside resort. 1 have advised him that | §75,000 is a fair price for it and this, with | the $25,000 for repairs, -will bring it up to the original figure of $100,000. | “We both consider the Investment a | good one, as it is not likely that there will ever be another cliff house built and | the old place will always enjov a monop- | | oly. It was through Mr. Wilkins, a friend | of my brother, that the idea was con-| celved to acquire possesssion. { | " “It is my brother's option to reduce his | | bid if he so desires, and it is highly prob- able that $75,000 is as high as he will go. At that figure he can expect a falr return | | on his Investment.” ALVA ADAMS ARRIVES. | The Prominent Colorado Politician and Ex-Governor Here on a Visit. | | Alva Adams, ex-Governor of Colorado | jand one of the most prominent Demo- cratic politicians of that State, arrived in this city yesterday morning from Los Angeles, where he has been stopping for | the last five weeks. Mr. Adams has large property interests | | throughout the West, and is to-day one | of the most popular men in Colorado. At the conclusion of his last term of office | he declined the renomination which was persistently offered him. “I am out of politics,” he said yesterday o return | no more. .y business interests demand | my immediate attention, and I have quit the fleld of political strife for all time.” Mr. Adams is prominently identified | with the big mining industry of Colorado.

Colonel T. P. Robinson has begun sult‘ against J. J. Rauer for a dissolution of | the copartnership existing between them | | in the management of Recreation Park | last year and for an accounting of the | money received by Rauer from the trans- fer of the ball grounds to the present | owners. Robinson in his complaint al- | | leges that Rauer disposed of the park | without his consent and pocketed the roceeds, $3500; that plaintiff held a half nterest with Rauer in the grounds and is entitled to half of the proceeds. AT THE PARK AND BEACH. | Cold Weather Thins the Crowds—In- teresting Monkey-Naming Contest. It was ‘“‘colder than the Klondike” at the park and beach yesterday, and the few people who went out for a day's en- joyment soon hurried home on the same mission. There was no music, the drive was deserted, and only an occa- sional half-frozen wheelman appeared on the paths. Owing to the fact that shelter is af- forded at the .Chutes, a fair crowd vis- ited that resort. Considerable interest is at present centered on the monkey nam- ing contest. A baby. monkey is now the pride of the Chutes, and to properly pro- vide the little animal with a suitable name all the patrons of the ground are allowed one suggestion as to what its title should be, the winner to be awarded a prize. Next Sunday the balloting closes, and a committee of newspaper men will decide the contest and christen the proud mon- ey. ’l)’he usual aquatic contest entertained the guests at Sutro’s Baths. The results follow: Fifty-yard dash—First, C. Dono- van; second, H. McKenzie. Fifty-yard special for amateurs—C. Donovan, first; W. Hurley, second. High diving for boy: . Guerrin, first; R. Beysum, sec- ond. Trick and fancy sgrlng-hoard dtv- ing—E. McKenzie, first; C. Donovan, sec- ond, Trapeze and high diving, won by A. J. Baker. Benefits the {11, the convalescent and the well. The fact that it is prepared by the Anheuser- Busch Ass'n guarantees its superior merit. e GUNST STARTS FOR EUROPE.
