SOVE 1055 OF LIFE Over a Score of Young Persons Precipitated Into the Stream’s Swift Current. it Special Dispatch to The Call. STOCKTON, June 10.—News reached | this city shortly after midnight that the catamaran Wave, bearing a party | of pleasure-seekers on a cruise up the | San Joaquin River, had been sunk at a point about ten miles from the city. The report created intense excitement, | | the first announcement sent by tele- | | | phone from the scene of the disaster be- ing to the effect that at least half of the party had lost their lives. Later reports indicate that most, if not al, of those aboard reached the shore at | points lower down the stream. It will the full extent of the disaster, as there seems to be a disposition on the part of the survivors of the wreck to report as saved each person inquired for by anxious relatives, this being done to allay the excitement in this city. The following were known to be aboard the catamaran: The three Misses Martins, daughters of D. P.| Martin, who are reported drowned, Ozro Atwood, Marian Walsh, Hazel Klench, Gertie Lang, Alva Atwood, Harry White, Samuel Rhodes, Clarence | George Folger, Herbert Kenyon, Mabel Kafitz, George Holman, Lloyd Woods, Hattie Nicewonger, Mabel Ager, Archie Atwood, Edith Adams, Mrs. Stella K. Smith (chaperon), Mrs. Carey e- wonger, Bessie Walsh, Bertha Martin, Ethel Martin, Bessie Smith, Golden Smith. i The Wave capsized in the San Joa- | quin River near the old chicory factory, precipitating a score of well known | young people into the swift currenf. At | 3 o’clock the first reports had been con- | siderably modified, but undoubtedly lives have been lost. The means of communication to the point of the d er cannot be obtained direct, and as a consequence nothing will be known definite until partie: now hurrying in launches and car-| riages to the scene shall have reported. Clarence Hall, one of the party which about twenty-two young people, telephoning to The Call cor- respondent, says that while a large number reached the bank it is impossi- ble to tell just what proportion of those ved are of the original part He described the disaster as one of the most terrible experiences that could | fall to the lot of a pleasure party. | The pleasure-seekers left this (‘Hy% | early last evening, going to the chicory factory, where they had luncheon. After spending a pleasant evening they boarded the catamaran for the return trip. They had been under way but a few minutes when the catamaran gave a lurch, and before any one realized | what had happeéned the boat ‘“‘turned turtle” and every member was thrown into the water. Terrible confusion ensued. Tt was| very dark and the current was running | swiftly. The river was lined by timber and it was hard even for good swim- | mers to obtain a footing. The current | carried many down the river and their screams added to the excitement. For this latter reason it is hard to tell just who is saved or who is lost, as, many may have got ashore far- ther down the river. The first report | stated that fully twelve were drowned, but several of these have been account- ed for. The parents of those in the party were notified as soon as possible and they vainly endeavored to get some word from the scene of disaster. Those at the telephone gave them all the hope | possible, but in some instances it was qualified, and it may be that the in- tention was to avoid giving the worst | news. She iff Sibley has gone overland with of doctors and every available hack has been pressed into service by persons hurrying across country. Clar- ence Hall gave evasive answers when asked about several members of the party, and it seemed he did not want to tell how bad the catastrophe was. | The party was made up of members of the Club I'Allegria and the two chaperones were Mrs. Stella Smith and Mrs. C Neicewonger. The pleas- ure trip had been planned to take | place on the catamaran Wave as far up the San Joaquin River as Brandt's Ferry and return. The craft was taken above the ferry for some distance and was on the return when the accident occurred. Of those who were saved here was none who could tell how the accident was caused. The craft seemed to turn partially over and sink almost in an instant. The members of the pleasure party or most of them were on deck, though it is im- possible that all of them were there. All were soon in a struggle for life in the waters. All those who succeeded in getting to the shore were cared for by the fam- ilies of Messrs. Bonoman and Brandt. The young ladies were kept comfortable | while the young men secured dry cloth- ing and started back for the scene of the accident, expecting to find others | alive there. | FIGHT THEIR WAY E THROUGH INSURGENTS < | MANILA, June 10, 6:45 a. m.—Twenty- five American soldiers who were engaged in reconnoitering in the fortified hills in the vicinity of Morong yvesterday were at- tacked by 300 insurgents.

Three in the Minority Tired of Doing Demo- cratic Politics---The Gas Rate Question. FE question of gas rates is rapidly assuming the character of a dead- lock, and out of it all will probably come the solution of the problem of board meetings. The Mayor and his five Supervisors met three representatives of the Pacific Gas Improvement Company in the executive office yesterda the ul- timatum of the city was dellvered and the answer of the company was demanded. The company was given until this even- ing to accept or reject the terms, and the threat of the Mayor was that unless the | terms offered by himself and the minority were accepted he would refuse to call a meeting next Monday, and the company could search elsewhere for its money. The representati of the company re- fused the terms at the meeting vesterday, and it is hardly possible they will recon- sider to-day. They will undoubtedly re- fuse again and the meeting for Monday | will not be called. There are other forces working, how- ever, and it may turn out that there will be a meeting after all.

In view of these facts, which were explained to the minority, the Tepr ntatives of the company agreed to accept the rate of §1 35, but in ng so they intimated to the Mayor that after this month the company wished to dis- continue its service. But the acceptance of the company was not satisfactc to the minority; there were certain conditions atiendant upon their terms, and the principal one of th was that in acepting the rate of § from the city the company should agrec that the same rate would hold good for the gen | consumers. This the repre- sentativ refused to consider. It was pointed out that the consumers’ rates are already the subject of a suit in the civil courts, and the company would not jeop- ardize the position it had taken there by making any terms with the Supervisors. 1t was urged besides that the rates to the were based upon a definite contract, which was admitted to be still in force. The Supervisors came up a little after that and raised their stipulation on con- sumers’ rates to $1 40. The representatives again refused, and then it was that the Mayor told them they could take it or not. Theé answer must be in to-night, and if it is unfavorable or if there be no answer, the Mayor declared there would be no meeting Mond There will be a meeting, however, unless all the signs fail. It may be too that the meeting will have to recognize the con- {Tact of the gas company and will have to | allow it, and the refusal of the minority to accept a compromise of $1 35 will cost the City a tidy sum. As for the consumers’ | rates, it it probabie that when the case | comes up the company, will offer a reduc- | tion of from $160 to $15, and that the| matter will be settled on_that basis. After the departure of the representa- tives of the gas company the minority | and the Mayor discussed the situation | and finally came to the decision that they | would consider no_ proposition_that was | not submitted jointly by the San Fran-| cisco and the Pacific gas companies. The | two companies have combined on rates, | they declare, and therefore they must come together on some Flan of compro- mise before the board will hear them.

NEW YORK, June 9.—The Herald’s Washington correspondent telegraphs: “While there is a divergence of views on the part of members of the Philip- pine Peace Comr on, as is usual in a body of five men especially selected because of their ability to form clear opinions, this divergence is slight that it constitutes no bar to their work- ing together with sufficient harmony to satisfy the Presiden I am authorized to make this state- ment by a high officer of the miris has read the individual views of the civ n members of th commission submitted to the President “The important point upon which the commission is agreed,” he continued, “is that there should be no cessation of hostilities, or, the Herald expressed hould continue during the rainy ason, in order to keep alive the fear among the Filipinos, which the successful cam- American troops has s0 created.” It is denied that President Schurman has forwarded his resignation to the President or contemplates doing so, so far as his dispatches indicate, but it is admitted there is this difference of opinion between him and General Otis: President Schurman believes diplomacy should be coupled with force; General Otis thinks diplomacy should be used when force has triumphed. But in the instructions given to Pres- ident Schurman and his assoclates be- fore they sailed for Manila, they were particularly cautioned against interfer- ing with military operations. Their work, they were told, was to supple- ment the military operations, and not to interfere with them. According to the official with whom I talked, they have carried out these instructions and will continue to do so, else there will be a vacancy on the commission. The views of the commissioners, showing their unanimous belief that military operations must continue, have im- pressed the President, and in line with their recommendations he cabled Gen- eral Otis to continue hostiiities, and to President Schurman to neglect no op- portunity to educate the natives as to the friendly purpose of this Govern- | ment. The cablegrams recetved from Gen- eral Otis and other members of the commission do not show that they are disturbed by Mr. Schurman’s course, and the reports of a disagreement in the commission, it is reiterated, are without foundation and doubtless cir- culated in the interests of the anti-im- perialists. The War Department re- ceived a cablegram this morning from General Otis with reference to the mili- tary eituation, but Acting Secretary Meiklejohn declined to make it public, stating it related to unimportant d tails. It is understood General Otis preparing for another aggressive e pedition similar to that recently con- ducted against the insurgents at Anti- polo and Morong. ADVERTISEMENTS. Diagnose YourOwn HILE IT I§ TRUE THAT NERVOUS- ness often occurs as a primary affection, in many instances it is but secondary to other troubles. Thus any disorder of the digestive system—the stomach, liver, bowels, etc., nearly always is attended by nervous symptoms.
