OIL CARRIER IN JEOPARDY Flames Break Out in Hold of the Steamer Whittier. ——— Prompt Work of Firemen Pre- vents Flames Spreading to Tanks. g For a brief period last evening there was much well-founded apprehension that | a catastrophe would occur in comparison | with which the loss of life and property | attendant upon the destruction of the| ill-fated steamer Progreso would pale | into insignificance. Only the prompt and | heroic work of the Fire Department pre- vented what might have been a repetition | on a larger scale of the horrible disaster of last December. . Shortly after 8 o'clock last evening| flames were discovered in the fire room of | the steamer Whittier, one of the oil | carrying fleet of the Union Oil Ccmpany, lying at section 2 of the seawall. In the | tanks of the vessel was stored 10,000 bar- | rels of crude petroleum ready for trans- portation to Hawali, and when at the ex- piration of thirty minutes’ hard work the firemen succeeded in extinguishing the blaze an audible sigh of relief came from the crowd of spectators. Second Officer J. 8. Brooks of the steamer George Loomis, also Iying at the | seawall, while walking the deck of his | ship noticed@ dense clouds of black smoke | issuing from the grating surrounding the smokestack of the Whittier. TURNS IN ALARM. The odqg of the burning ofl was unmis- | takable, id not knowing the !scation of | ‘the nearest fire alarm box, he rushed toa | nearby telephone and gave the aiarm. A | call was sent in from box 32, which | brought three engine companies, one | truck, one chemical and the fire boats | Governor Irwin and Governor Markham | to the scene. | Upon the arrival of the department it | looked as though the ship was doomed to destruction. Several lines of hose were | brought into play and the intrepid fire- men, undaunted by the know!vdge that they might be going to certain death, en- tered the vessel. It was found that the firp was confined solely to the fire room bilge and the water poured into this com- partment soon had effect. The two fire boats had drawn up alongside ready to turn their water batteries loose If neces- sary or tow the vessel out into the stream. Captain McDonald of the steamship was | ashore at the time and the ve was in command of First Officer McGinnis. He stated that until an investization was made it would be impossible to state posi- | tivey the origin of the fire or the extent of the damage. FLAMES IN THE BILGE. Several of the floor plates of the fire room are warped from the heat. As near as can be ascertained the fire stsrted in the bilge, either from spontaneous com- bustion or by ignition from the furnace fires. The drippings of oil from the feed pipes had undoubtedly collected on the surface of the water in the biige and in some manner burst into flame. The Whittier is a vessel of 798 tons dis- | placement and was bullt at ‘he Union | | Iron Works, being completed about six months ago. She is owned by the Union 0il Company, John Baker Jr. manager and has been carrying oll between Ven- tura and Oleum. She made one trip to Honolulu and was about to start on the second vovage to the island port. The tanks, with a carrying capacity of 10,000 barrels, are located in the forward por- tion of the vessel and are separated from | the fire and engine rooms by 1 cofferdam fllled with water. The officers of the ship maintain that this bulkhead would pre- vent the communication of a fire in the fire room to the tanks. It is believed that | the damage will not efceed $10%0 and that the steamer will be able to sail as sched- uled on Tuesday:. —_————e— Fleet of Sailing Ships. Four deep-sea salling vessels came into the harbor yesterday afternoon from Australia. | Two of them were British and two French. The vessels flying the tricolor made the smart- est passages. They were all from Newcastle and all coal laden. Their names and length of passages were: British ship Gunford, 85 days, British ship Cambuskenneth, 60 days: French | bark Emvereur Menelik, 57 days, and French | bark Ernest Reyer, 56 days. The Gunford left ! Newcastle May 30. She encountered heavy | southeasterly squalls at the outset of the voy- | age, and June 1, finding his vessel sagging | toward the land, Captain Watts ran into Syn- | ney, where he remained until June 4. The Cambuskenneth salled $994 miles and aver- aged 150 miles a day throughout the voyage. P ) Brings Hardwood Logs. The schooner Jennle Wand arrived yester- day 48 days from Navidad with a cargo of hardwood logs. — e Promotion in the Russian army is ex- ceedingly slow.

A. Wels, a farmer who lives Weis met Hodge on the main street, and, without a | | word of warning, thrust the muzzle of a | revolver in his face and fired. The ball | entered just above the bridge of Hodges' nose and death was instantaneous. The shooting was the result -of tnmhy, matters in which Mrs, Wels figures. She | had lett her husband and has been living | with her mother, Mrs. O. B. Green, in this ;u‘y. She does not care to discuss the af- air, Weis would have shot Hodge again as he lay upon the sidewalk but for citizens | who seized him. He was arrested by | Constable Chambers, who telephoned to the Sheriff’s office, and a deputy was sent to bring Weils to the county jail. Coroner Kitto was summoned from this city to take charge of the remains of the { murdered man. Wels is a well-known farmer of Sutter County. His wife Is connected with influential people. The dead man is not well known here. He | worked for several years on ranches in the vicinity of Knights Landing. ———e— Secures Option on Valuable Lands.
