UNKNOWN VESSEL ASHORE. Bark Commandant Marchand Re- | ports Supposed Disaster. | Another marine disaster is supposed to have occurred in the southern seas. large bark Is reported ashore on the Vairaatea Reef, but the underwriters and shipping men are not ready to accept the report as correct. Vairaatea Reef, or Egmont Island, is 600 miles from Tahiti | and 330 miles from Manga Reva Island, | on which the British four-masted bark | | Pyrenees was beached on Dacember 2 last. Captain Arneau of the ‘ommandant Marchand says that on February § he | and ship captains are of the opinion that | the master of the Commandant Marchand | made a mistake in_his calculations and | that it was the Pyrences he saw on | Manga Reva and not Vairaatea Reef. | Owing to the thick weather it may have | been several days before an observation | could be taken, and as all the atolls in the | southern ceas ook alike it would be easy to mistake one for the other. s New French Cruiser, Naval men are greatly interested in the latest addition to the French navy. French armored cruiser Jeanne d'Arc is a new departure in naval architecture, and although she icoks well on paper | there are plenty of naval men to be found who assert that she will not be the suc- cess her builders expect.

Crabfishers Threaten the Neapolitans With Dire Vengeanea. Little Italy All Agog and a Speedy Conflict Between the Fully Armed Opposing Factions Seems Inevitable. —_— Th black cloud of war is rapidly gath- ering over the Italfan colony, and the “crab fishers,” as they are called, are sharpening their knives to wreak venge- ance on the Neapolitans. The hostile fac- tiofls go about in numbers in order to be prepared for sudden onslaughts of the en- emy. 1ll feeling has been brewing for some time, and affairs were brought to a climax yesterday, when one of the Neapo- litans caused the arrest of the wife ot a ‘“‘crab fisher” on the ground of cruelty to a child. A few months ago complaint was en- tered with the California Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children that Mrs. Leoni Santori was abusing an infant child, Eda. An investigation was made, but as little convicting testimony was lorthcomln and as the complainant, Mrs. Dini of 9la ontgomery street, was shown to be actuated y personal motives, the affair was droppe Femtorany Meb: Toulsa Cecchint of 112 Kearny street swore to a warrant againat Mrs. Santori, and Special Officer McMur- ray served the same. Mrs. Cecchini ac- companied the officer part of the way to the house, but when Mrs. Santorl was seen coming toward them Mrs. Cecchini fled in terror. The complainant charged that Mrs. S8antori had most severely beat- en the child and had then bitten it se- riously, as punishment for some trifling mischief. This the motber denied, and said that the whole trouble was caused by Mrs. Dini, who admired the child and wanted to get possession of it. When she found out the course affairs had taken Mrs. Santorl's eves blazed, and in the Ttalian tongue she uttered direful threats ?galnst Mrs. Cecchini and the Neapoli- ans. Mr. Santori came to the prison as Of- ficer' McMurray was trying _to _explain that bail was necessary. Not realizing the situation nor percelving that the stranger was an officer, Santori calied his friends and was about to make summary disposal of the supposed confidence man, ho was trying to bunko his wife out of $25.” Affairs were at last adjusted with- out violence and the case will be heard before Judge Cabaniss to-day. * Meanwhile the ‘‘crab flshers” threaten that the matter will be settled by blood alone and are preparing to make their threats good. The Neapolitans are eager for the fray and loudly proclaim their ability to destroy the ‘‘crab fishers.” @ iviiniivdieisiiririeiiddebi e @ Waters at_Fort Point, entrance to San Francisco Bay.
