SEATTLE, Dec. 2—The sound steamer Skagit Chief is a total wreck on the Blakeley rocks, near Pleasant Beach. Bhe hit the rocks in a heavy fog at 9:30 o'clock last night. Captain Call was in the pilot house, and, realizing the dan- gerous nature of the surroundings, had the vessel under slow speed. The first crash came bow-on and was followed by | an immediate signal to reverse the en- glnes. This was done, but a strong tide | urried the vessel on’ and hung her up | heipless. Boats were lowered and the | passengers were taken safely ashore. The Skagit Chief was valued at $30,000. | There is no insurance. Killed on the Rails. FRESNO, Dec. 2—Rosario Garcia, gection employe, was run over and fafally | injured at § o'clock this evening by a | southbound train near the Southern Pa- | cific depot.

RSP Little Ones Saved From Drowning Die of Expos- ure on the Beach. Speclal Dispatch to The Call: VANCOUVER, Dec. 2.—A drowning ac- cident, accompanied by a noteworthy ex- ample of heroism, occurred in the North Arm of the Inlet this afternon. A boat in which were an Indian from the Catho- lic Mission, his wife and three children | and another squaw, capsized in" a squall. | The Indian 2nd the second squaw went down with the boat, while the mother | of the pappooses seized one under each | arm and the third in her teeth and swam | to the shore, a distance of 150 or 200 yards. § Such an act has rarely been equaled and the fact that it was performed by an | Indian woman speaks well for the trair- | ing of the aborigines and their skill in the water. But the saddest part remains | to be told. After gaining the beach the three pappooses died from the effects of | exposure, despite all that could be done | by white loggers who came to the brave Woman's_assistance. Thw Indian was a brother of Chief Har- v of the Mission across the inlet and was proceeding to a lumber camp at the farthest end of the North Arm. His chil- dren were aged 6 years, 4 years and § months, respectively. When the party was nearly at its destination a squail blew down from the hills and put the boat on her beam ends. She made considerable water and righted herself, but immediate- y afterward went down suddenly. The Stwash was clothed in an ofl skin and heavy gum boots, besides having his| cartridge helt about his waist and he | sank straight away. His squaw on com- | ing to the surface found the children | within easy reach. Taking one under | each arm and seizing the clothing of the | baby with heg teeth, she struck out for the ‘shore. Hathleen, the other squaw, was also a $wimmer, but succumbed to the coldness of the water and sank soon | after the boat went down. It was a long swim and a hard one to the shore, which was nearly 200 yards from the 'spot where the accident oc- | curred. With that desperation prompted | by the maternal instinct to save her lit- | tle ones, the mother buffeted the wind | and the choppy sea bravely and finally | succeeded in reaching the beach. How she cid it she does not know. William Mearns | of Phipps’ logging camp saw her strug- | gle and went to her assistance. The | squaw was utterly exhausted when she | |{ landed and deposited her precious bur- | | dens on the beach. But the mother’s heroism was to no ef- | fect. Her first thought was for the wel- fare of her children and on turning her attention to them she found the youngest vomiting water. It dled shortiy after- | ward from the effects of its exposure in the water. The other two boys were also thoroughly chilled, and though aid was sought from the nearest camp it did not come soon enough to relieve them from the effects of the exposure. They died within an hour. | The funeral of the little ones will take all of the white in that vicinity will attend. | residen IN JAIL AT PHOENIZ | Priscner Is Believed to Be George Hayford, Wanted in Santa Barbara.

Hatcher to-day filed an answer to' the suit of her husband, Charles M. Hatcher, the capitalist and real estate dealer, who brought an action to have their marriage annuled on the ground that he was forced into the ceremony by her brother, who carried a big revolver. The wedding took place in San Francisco six months ago. The couple never lived togéther, and after several weeks Hatcher brought euit 1o annul the marriage. The case was trans- | ferred to this city for trial. In her answer Mrs. Hatcher denies that her relatives forced Hatcher to marry her. BShe asks that she be granted & di- vorce on the ground of extreme cruelty and desertion. She wants 3150 a month alimony and the custody of their child.

Crocker, widow of the late Judge E. B. Crocker, in that city yester- day. She succumbed to pneumonia, after a long illness, at the age of 79 years. To- morrow the body will be taken to Buffalo and there cremated, this being Mrs. Crocker's wish. It was in this city Mrs. Crocker spent the best and happlest years of her life. It was here that her children were born and reared and it ‘was here that her phil- anthropy found freest expression. The magnificent Crocker art gallery of 700 paintings and several thousand pen and ink studies from the studios jof Europe, the whole representing a value of $§750,000, was her gift to the city of Sacramento, for the free use of the people for all time. Her establishment and endowment of the Marguerite Home for Old Ladies, at an outlay of $130,000, was another notable in- stance of her bounty. Recently she deed- ed to a modest local charity, for the pu pose of a rescue home, her beautiful man- sion-at Third and O streets, rich with its laurel and maple and fine marbles. Mrs. Crocker's gift of the art gallery to the people was followed, on May 6, 1885, by a floral festival in her honor, which has D B e L ] ROB THE TRUNKS OF PASSENGERS Detective Nabs Santa Fe Operator and a ‘Woman.

The theft -was not discovered until after Hall had been arrested on a charge of. petty larceny, preferred by C.

They reported the loss to Agent Steuart and, through-him, to the Police Depart- ment, with the result that through Detec- tive Cooley one of the rings, valued at $500, was found in the sion of Hall's attorney, to whop it had 'been given as a - probably never found its like anywhere in the world. A holiday. season was be- Bun throughout the city, factories and business houses closed, as did_all the schools. The churches and all fraternal societies participated. The path of Mrs. Crocker through the streets was strewn ‘Wwith roses by thousands of children dress- ed in white. Wonderland of Flowers. At the great State Expocition building, which covers several acres of Capitol Park, such a .scene was produced as Sug- gested a fairyland vision. The whole place was redolent of perfume, aglow with the rarest blossoms. Flowers were fash- ioned into churches, pagodas and temples, all of them capable of holding scores of persons. In the center of the great en- closure was a maypole, around which a hundred or more children danced as they wound the gay ribbons. The gardens of Sacramento—and not alone Sacramento, but of surrounding towns—had been strip- ped of their choicest blooms in order that the day should be ever memorable. Fully 15,000 persons filled the_ pavilion and joined in the acclaim in honor of Mrs. Crocker. Three thousand school children passed before her, tossing roses at her feet as they went. In the evening the festival was renewed. The Sacra- mento Society of California Pioneers pre- sented her with four tablets of solid gold fee in the petty larceny case. Other jewels have been found where Hall had pawned them, besides considerable other plunder of more or less value, which evidently had been obtained in the same way. Hall's bail has been fixed at $5000 and that of the woman at $2500. Detective Silva of the Santa Fe, who was sent here to mvesm%(e the loss of several articles about the Hotel Coronado, supplies thé other portion of the story. A 'week ago he was asked by the Chief of Police of Albuquerque to locate R. H. Hall, a te]eg‘raflh operator from Shawnee, N. Mex., and the woman who was passing as his wife. The Albuquerque officer wrote that the woman was the wife of D. E. Groch of Sanderson, Tex.; that the couple had eloped from there; that the husband had followed them to Shawnee and had exchanged shots with Hall in an im- romptu duel, in which neither was hit. n_Silva came here to investigate a g!etty larceny case he did not know that all was here, but when he learned the fact he was sure that the local detec- tive had the right man. The diamond charge came later and the officials are co{:fldent that other sensations will de- velop. STOCKTON, Dec. 2—Frank Logengo was accidentally shot and killed this af- ternoon while -hunting five miles south of this city. He was in company with Frank Collora, his wife's brother-in-law, and when some geese started up in front of them Collofa in his nervousness pulled the trigger, sending a full charge of shot into his companion’s neck. . i geer | DENVER, Dec, 2.—A fire which started this evening destroyed the entire stock of the Cross- Thome Carpet and Furniture Company, causing 4 loss of $80,000, wi ,000 insurance, and guea the building, the damage being about ),000, fully insured. ———— : + The Bee Hive Shoe Company.

Brown, the alleged leader of the mob that hanged aged Calvin Hall, his three sons and Daniel Yantis\in Lookout. Dur- ing the morning session of the court Dep- uty Attorney General C. N. Post aroused the ire of counsel for the defense by de- claring his belief that the entire commu- | nity of Lookout was in a measure respon- | sible for the crime. Judge G. F. Harris, for the defense, resented this statement | and his language became so violent that | he was ordered out of the courtroom by | Judge Harrington. The Attorneys Raker, who are associated with Harris as coun- | sel for Brown, took up the fight and were fnally compelled to take their seats or | sutfer for contempt of court. Post's words were called forth by the fact that aimost every venireman who is examined declares that he believes the lynching of the ive men was justifiable.

Proposed to Exclude White and Incorporate Town of Their Own. STOCKTON, Dec. 2.—There is soon to be a big negro colony in Contra Costa County, just across the line from San It will consist of 300 families from Louisiana. Negotiations have been in progress sev- eral weeks and the bargain has practi- cally been struck for 3000 acres of land. 4 Later an additional tract of 13,000 acres ¥ will be thrown open to the negroes. The present understanding is that only the advance guard of the black brigade shall come until the first comers have had ex- perience enough to determine whether th venture will be satisfactory to all co cerned. - It is expected that agents of the col- onists will arrive here this week, or early next week, to close the deal. The land is owned by John Herd and lies on the west side of the river, which constitutes part of the dividing line between San Joaquin and Contra Costa. It will be divided into tracts of from ten to fifty acres. The set- tlers will raise garden produce, which may readily be shipped to market, inas- much as the Santa Fe line runs through the tract, and there is also communica- tion by water. The colonists want a place where they may live exclusively. The nearest town, Brentwood, is several miles away. They propose to Incorporate a town, elect their own officers, establish a school district and, in short, control the government of the colony. Babe’s Peculiar Death.
