Mineola and Geo. W. Elder Case to Be Investigated. The Oregon Raiflway and Navigation Company’s steamship Geo. W. Elder and the collier Mineola both arrived in port yesterday. Before they get away an investigation into a_reported narrow es- cape from collision between the two ves- will be held by the Inspector of Hulls and Boilers and the captains and officers on the lookout on both vessels will be given a chance to tell their stories. The Mineola arrived early yesterday aft- er a good run of cight-five hours from Nanoimo, B. C., while the Geo. W. Elder came in a few hours later from Portland after a fast run of fifty-eight hours. It was on the previous trip of both vessels, however, that the danger arose. | The Mineola was on her way from Puget Bound for Port Los Angeles with a load of coal. When about 100 miles north of San Francisco she met the Geo. W. Elder, bound for Portland. There was a slight fog, and the collier was running un- der casy steam, while the passenger boat was making schedule time. Captain Kirk- { wood of the Mineola asserts that a proper lookout was not kept on the other vessel, and that had it not been for the vigilance of the men on the collier there would Tie Mineola's en- ere at once reversed, and warn- blown on the siren. When the s were less than fifty yards apart lder's engines also were reversed, the two steamers sheered off. Further than to say that there was absolutely no danger, Captain Randall of the Elder re- fuses to talk. He gays he will tell his side of the story to the United States in- sphtl‘lm'& and that he has no fear of the result. t it is nevertheless can [ | | | have been a collision. gines ————— Royalist Arrives From Sydney. The British steamer Royalist arrived from Newcastle, N. 8. W., yesterday after a long passage of forty-one days. Quite |2 number of times during the run she had to stop because of small breakdowns in the machinery. These necessitated running the vessel under a “slow bell” for days at a time, and the passage was lengthened considerably in consequence. The Royalist went from here to Sydney. . 8. W., with a cargo of general mer- chandise. The goods were wanted in Aus- tralia, and the regular steamers could not 'handle the stuff, so the Royalist was chartered to take it down. On her ar- rival in Sydney she was quickly discharg- ed, and then went to Newcastle, where she loaded coal for San Francisco, After an overhauling the chances are that the Royalist will go back to 8ydney with an- other general cargo. S LA S P, mtt;heock's Smart Run. | The American ship 8. P. Hitchcock is {now out nine days from Sydney, N. 8. |W., for San Francisco, and thé many | friends of Captain Gates expect his ship | to make a record run. The Hitchcock went from New York to Sydney in the very fast time of ninety-seven days, and should she come acrss in anything like | | Sui good time she will equal the time for a New York-San Francisco run in spite of thirty-six cays' lay in Sydney. The original of the accompanying half- tone can be seen in Morris’ art rooms on tter street. It is by W. A. Coulter, The II's marine artist, and was painted for district Attorney J. J. Dunn. The Hitchcock was Mr. Dunn’s home for many a long month, and he wants the'painting as 2 memento of his two trips around the orn. ¢ Water Front Notes. The steam schooner Iaqua sailed on her maiden age, since being rebuilt, ves- terday. After being a few months {n com- mission she went on Duxbury Reef one evening soon after leaving San Francisco. Later she was got off, but was so bad- ly damagzed that her machinery had to be taken out and the hull practically re- built. Captain Gunderson went out in command yesterday, and the steamer goes back on the Eureka run. mong the passengers by the W. H. Kruger from Fort Bragg yesterday was Captain Thompsen of the Chehalis. The latter vessel is lald up for repairs, so the Cantain went to Noyo to superintend the loading of the steamer Horda 'with railroad ties for Guayaquil.

Other San Francisco Million- aires Likely to Follow His Lead. — On the margin of beautiful Lake Tahoe there will probably be built in the near future the summer residences of a whole colony of San Francisco millionaires. The first step in this direction has already been taken and the pioneer in the move- ment is I. W. Hellman, president of the Nevada Bank and one of the most wide- ily known of the financial magnates of | California. Mr. Hellman returned from Tahoe only a few weeks ago with his family, and he came back charmed with the lake and the country around there. Moreover, he came back the owner of a tract of 200 acres of land on the margin of the lake, which he purchased from M. H. de Young. The land was bought at a merely nominal price. It is wild, the .only improvement upon it being a small wharf projecting into the lake. The tract is on what is known as Sugar Pine Point, half way between Tallac and Tahoe City. The point projects far out into the lake and the mountains are cov- ered to thelr tops with a heavy growth of pine timber. Mr. Hellman; who re- turned from Tahoe only to leave at once for Catalina, where he is spending the holiday season with his family, could not be seen yesterday, but his son, I. W. Hellman Jr., was found at his summer home in San Rafael and confirmed the story of the purchase of land. . “It i the intention of my father,” said Mr. Hellman, ;‘to build a summer home on the banks of Lake Tahoe. He knows what he wants and is now having plans drawn in accordance with his ideas by his architect, but as yet I cannot say what the: house will cost. That is not a matter of great moment if he gets what he wants. It is a beautiful site for a villa and the house will be fitted to the site. Of course, it will cost a great deal of money to make the place habitable at all, as it is perfectly wild mow. It will be necessary, in fact, to install a plant for the supply of water and an electric light plant, and both these things will be done. My father will also set up a small steam- boat of his own on the lake. There is a whart already on the place—that being about all there is excepting the rocks and timber.” It is not likely that Mr. Hellman will long be without neighbors when the beau- ties of his new summer home come to be seen by other millionaires, and a colony of the very wealthy on the margin of the lake will in all probability be one of the developments of the next few years. PEREBERERBIR) efeeferfefofeie it @ THREE ROBBERS GOME TO GRIEF Captured After Securing Booty From Ex- Volunteers. A bold attempt at highway robbery was made early yesterday morning, James Brodie, a crippled ex-soldier, and Charles Kanan, his companion, being the objects of attack. They were walking along East street at about 2 o'clock in the morning, somewhat the worse for liquor, and were stopped by two footpads, who ordered them to throw up their hands. Being well drilled and disciplined, they obeyed orders, and the robbers took $35 from Brodie's pocket and ran away. The victims made a great outery, and gave chase, in which Detectives McMahon and Holman took part, capturing the fugi- tive footpads in a saloon in which the; had attempted to conceal themselves. ‘When taken to the City Prison the foot. pads gave their names as John Hurley and William Hanley, and were recognezed as _old offenders. The prisoners were identified by the ex- soldiers, Brodie having but a few min- utes before “loaned” a dollar to Hurley. George W. Crook, late of Company B, Forty-fourth Infantry, U. 8. A.. was in a saloon at the intersection of Ellis and Leavenworth streets .drinking early yes- terday morning, and, being apprehensive of footpads, took five $20 pieces out of his pocket and was in the act of handing them to the bar- tender for safe keeping when the money was snatched from his hands by Robert Burns. Burns dashed out of the door and up the street with the five gold pleces clutched tightly in his right hand, closely pursued by Crook, who shouted for the police as he ran. The uproar was heard by Patrolman T. Love, who overhauled Burns and captured him, together with the money. Burns was taken to the City Prison, and a charge of grand larceny was booked against his name. GOVERNMENT EXHIBIT AT EXPOSITION ROBBED Daring Thief Steals Many Valuable Stamps From the Postoffice Department. BUFFALO, July 4.—Part of the Post- office Department’s exhibit of stamps was stolen from the Government building on the Exposition grounds last night. A col- lection of wuncanceled United States stamps from the first issue to date occu- jed an important place in the exhibit. 'he stamps were shown in a pat- ent swinging case containing leaves. These leaves are locked to the column on which they rest. This collection contained some stamps of great rarity and value; in fact, some were borrowed from private collectors for this exhibit. Although the building is policed by four officers, the thief ransacked this collection last night and took stamps to the value of parently he appre- clated the value of them, as he took all th2 rare ones and left some of the recent issues. He wrenched two leaves from the column where they were fastened and ‘went behind a group representing a mail- carrier in the Far West, and there robbed them at his leisure. When the building was opened this morning the loss was discovered. Local and Exposition police and secret service men are looking for the thief. Some of the stamps cannot be replaced. - HUSBAND SHOOTS WIFE AND TRIES TO ESCAPE Jealousy Is Supposed to Have Caused a Crime in Los Angeles.
