Of course, Mr. Sully, who perfectly fits his part, is an | exception to this, and Helen Whitman, | the fashionable widow, does some clever work. Willilam F.

Enterprise Temporarily The probability that the wreck of the | Pacific Mail steamship Ric de Janeiroi has been located off Fort Point, as told ! exclusively in vesterday's Call, was the | topic of conversation along‘ the city front and among shipping and marine insurance men throughout the day. The report was generally cepted as credible and in line with the best theories as to the whereabouts of the Zulk and its ultimate recovery. It was pointed out that no other vessel the vicinity of the point in many years, so that if any wreck has been discovered at that part of the harbor it is doubtless that of the Rio. The Call yesterday located the men . ! that are at the head of the undertaking to salve the cargo and if possible the They tell a circumstan- tial story of their work to date and claim that, although little progress has | vet been made toward raising cargo, | they have found and brought to the surface pieces of wreckage bearing the name of the great trans-Pacific steam- er that went on the rocks in the dense fog of eariy morning on February 22, 1901. Laboring under some uncertainty as to their rights in the matter, the wreckers were reluctant yesterday to speak in detail as to their plans for the future, and what was learned was in the way of admission rather than a willing statement of thelr purposes. A visit to Viscato beach yesterday afternoon discovered several matters bearing on the supposed finding of the Rio. None of the wreckage strewn along the shore south of Fort Point showed the name of the missing vessel, but several pieces of painted wood were found which residents of the neighborhood and at the cliff at once | pronounced similar to pleces picked up along the beach for days after the loss of the Rio. These are painted red on one side and are covered with a heavy white enamel on the other.' At the | time of the disaster such pieces when found at the seaside were described as fragments from some of the Ric's boats that were broken to pieces in the dis- aster. WHERE THE The supposed position of the Rio's hull at present is clearly indicated by four buoys the wreckers have station- ed about 700 yards off the shore. These can easily be seen with a glass either from the beach or from the bluffs above. The buoys are anchored with strong cables and form a quadrilateral several hundred yards in dimension. They are about 200 yards northwest of the largest of the two rocks that rise conspicuously above the water south- | west of Fort Point. Some of these SHIP LIES. buoys have been in place for a fort- night. During this time divers have made frequent descents, they say, to which they now declare is without doubt the Rio, The man that claims the honor of solving the mystery surrounding the | dead ship's resting place is John Col- lins, an ex-sailor, who now foliows the calling of a rope splicer and lives at 2519 Larkin street. So much was learned by The Call’s representative from the Presidio guards who patrol the beach below Fort Point. These guards, as well as the men connected with the life-saving station at this spot, have been I.terested spectators for some days of the operations of the men on the launch, who daily came and an- chored at the same place and finally sent down divers that were seen to| bring up pieces of wreckage. They are | all convinced that the Rio has been lo- | cated. | Collins was found later at his home suffering from a severe cold contracted in the hard work and frequent wettings | involved in his wrecking enterprise. He | is a man of 50 years, a native of St. John, N. B., and a familiar figure on the San Francisco water front for| | many years. After quitting the sea hp\ was employed for a long period as n‘ cable splicer for the street railways. He was greatly surprised to learn that | his connection with the attempt to| salve the Rio had become known. Evi-| dently he had tried to keep it a secret, | and beyond admitting the bare fact| that he believed he had discovered the | whereabouts of the lost vessel he was disinclined to talk when seen last even- | ing. DIFFICULTIES OF WORK. | ““Are you in want of any more capital | for your work?’ he was asked at| The question loosened his freely of the difficulties of the under- taking. “I cannot tell just yet what we can do or how much money we shall need. The fact is, we have had to suspend the water clears. Three days ago my divers went down and walked about the deck of the vessel without difficulty, but yesterday the water wa® so muddy | | that they could see nothing. It was pitch dark down there, and this made it so dangerous that we decided to walt till the black water from the Sacra- mento freshet passes and the blue water comes back again. “I sent down three divers yvestrday,” Collins continued, under gentle probing “They brought up a heavy piece of fron which one of them stumbled over on the deck. It was ap- parently a piece of a deck pump, such as my men was down forty-five minutes} yesterday. This is about as long as any one can stay down at that depth. The deck of the Rio is about sixty-five or seventy feet below low tide, so the pressure on a diver in armor is terrific. Then the current down there is like a gale above sea. It is so strong that a diver can keep his feet only with the The task, as any one can see, is made much greater by the darkness. The men are constantly in danger of belng swept off the deck | and over the side of the vessel. This might result in getting their lines and air tubes tangled up and making it impossible for them to reach the sur- face again. Hence without better fa- cilities it is impossible for us to pro- ceed until the water clears. SURE IT IS THE RIO. “Yes, I am sure the sunken vessel Blocked by Muddy Water - is the Rio. I made the discovery of her location myself, after diving around in different spot off the point. I have off there near those rocks, and now I have proved it. We have brought up pieces of timber from the wreck that bear the name of the ship in plain let- ters. “The ship is lying on her side, wedged between two great rocks. There is such a heavy list that it is hard work walking on deck, which is covered with mud and very slippery. “Now, if we are to succeed in our enterprise we must have the best pos- sible facilities for our work. I worked for a time with a launch called the Gazelle, but that was too small, and I have just got a new and larger boat. I intend to fit up this craft’ with all the latest appliances for wrecking, in- cluding electric lights for submarine work and the very best air pumps and the like. It is too soon to tell whether we shall need to pump sand out of the hold. My work up to the present time has been confined to making such exploration of the deck as we could and to bringing up the few loose articles found on it. Our facilities were too limited to permit us to do | | more, but we know where the Rio 18| and have marked her position. Those buoys you saw out there are anchored down on each side of the wreck, not | fastened to the ship's masts.” COLLINS' PARTNERS. Collins showed some uncertainty as to his rights in the matter of salving the Rio or her cargo and sald he was in doubt as to the attitude of the Gov- ernment toward such an enterprise. He had visited several marine insur- ance offices, he declared, but could get no information,as to any claims upon the ship or cargo that might be | made by the companies. His new boat is in charge of Captain John Ross, a well-known water front man, who was | formerly in the employ of the White- law Wrecking Company and thus has | some experience in similar work. Colling'’ other partners in the un- dertaking include a diver named Floise and other persons of small capi- tal. Collins himself gave as little in- formation about them as possible, say- ing: “The public is welcome to all it can learn about this thing, but I do not intend to make our plans known.” POSSIBLE PROFITS. If Collins has really discovered the Rio, as he firmly believes. partners are doubtless in a way to make a handsome stake. The rights | of salvors in such a case were stated last night to The Call by Charles Page of Page, McCutchen & Knight, attor- neys. Mr. Page is well known as an authority upon maritime law, and his connection with the litigation over the Rio as counsel for the ship owners especially qualifies him to speak on the case in point. He said: “Whoever finds the Rio will be en- titled to salvage on so much of the ghip and her cargo as he may be able to recover. &nd cargo remains in the owners as before the wreck, except as effected by insurance. If the insurance companies paid a total loss on either ship title to the ship, if saved, or the cargo, it raised. My recollection is that the ship was not insured at all, while the cargo was insured and paid for by the | companies as a total loss. “If I am correct in this then the salvors would look to the Pacific Mail Steamship Company for salvage on so much of the ship as might be recov- ered and to the owners of the cargo, if anything of value is raised from the hold. The courts would act as arbiter on all! guestions of value and after awarding the salVors their expenses would allow them a liberal share of the value of their recovery.” The possibilities of salvage on the cargo of silks, rice, tea and opium car- ried by are, under water. The wreckers, however, are counting on the recovery of the bullion which they believe to have been in the ship when she went down. Im- mediately after the wreck the amount of this was stated to have been $600,- 000. The Pacific Mail officials have denied that any specie was aboard the Rio on her last voyage, but a large part of the public has steadfastly re- fused to accept this denial, and Collins and his fellow wreckers are working in hopes of recovering a fortune in coin which, they are sure, now lies at ths bottom of the Golden Gate. —_—— The Kaiser's Latest Break. Kaiser Wilhelm’'s telegram habit has seemingly got him into trouble again. It will his wire to Oom Paul resulted in the mobilization of the British navy. The other day, just after the sale of the Argentine crulsers to Japan, he tele- graphed, or had telegraphed, to the firm of Ansaldo, the builders in Genoa, the following telegram: “The Argen- tine ships are at present the best type | of armor-plated cruisers now existing in any navy. The perfection of that model of ship is, to my mind, un- doubted. I congratulate the valiant Argentine navy on their excellent type ! of ship.” The cause of sending the telegram was the Ansaldos’ sending the plans of the ships to the Kaiser, but when he sent the message they had started on their way to Japan, and Russia is asking what he meant by it. —Exchange. * THE BEST YET.
