But should Admiral Goodrich, who is due here in a few hours, decide to hold an inquiry here, the presumption is that the Benhington will not be taken north until the investigation is com- pleted. The Bennington will be taken to Mare | Island navy yard by the Iris, escorted by the powerful naval tug Fortune, but it is doubtful if she will get away before the arrival of the Chicago. Divers made an examination of her hull to-day. Ad- miral Goodrich is expected to arrive on his flagship late to-night or early to-mor- row, when an investigation of the dis- aster will be begun. Much interest centers on the question of what was the steam pressure on boiler B at the time of the .explosion, it being understood that the safety valve had been set to blow off at 140 pounds. Ten minutes before the explosion the pressure was only 118 pounds and was rising. The boiler had been cleaned only a short time before and fllled with fresh water from ashore. -Only one boller ex- ploded.

Admiral Goodrich Instructed to Con- duct a Searching Investigation. WASHINGTON, July 26.—Rear Ad- miral Goodrich, commander in chief of the Pacific station, is expected to ar- rive at San Diego to-morrow on his flagship, the Chicago, and the Navy Department expects him to convene a court of inquiry and begin an investi- gation into the Bennington disaster without delay. - It was stated at the department to- day that a. telegram from Captain Drake, in which he makes reference to a telegram from Admiral Goodrich, in- dicated that the admiral fully under- stands that the department desires him to institute a searching investigation. | Precautions have been taken by the de- partment to preserve existing condi- tions on the Bennington until after the arrival of Admiral Goodrich. It was explained in this connection that or- ders had been sent not to disturb the boilers and to have them remain just as they were after the explosion. The steam log of the Bennington covering the quarter ending June 30, which came to the department yester- | day, was carefully scanned by depart- | ment officials, to-day, but no state- | ment was forthcoming as to what light it might shed. Secretary Bonaparte, | who has been advised in a general way | of its substance, is having a memo- randum of the facts shown by the log prepared for him so that he may more carefully consider them. It was stated at the Navy Depart- ment to-day that the transfers of bodies of those who perished on the Bennington to the nomes of relatives will be made as rapidly as possible, but that some delays must necessarily be expected, since there are certain health regulations to be complied with in the cases of bodies already buried. The Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, to which all requests for transportation of bodies is referred, is using every ef- fort to expedite the work. An appro- priation is available for such trans- portation. A dispatch of sympathy was received at the Navy Department to-day ‘from Lieutenant Commander de Faramond, naval attache of the French embassy now at Manchester, Mass., to which a reply was made by Secretary Bona- parte. Captain Drake at San Diego has re- ported to the Navy Department the death to-day of S. Takata, wardroom cook of the Bennington, His father is C. Takata, at Tok!o. TOWN OF COVELO VISITED BY FIRE Flames Spread Rapidly and Business Section Is Destroyed. COVELO, July 26.—Early this morn- ing a fire destroyed half of the business portion of the town. It caught in the tank house in the rear of the Covelo Hotel and in a few minutes the hotel was on fire and beyond control. Dave Rudee’s general merchandise store was the next to go, and then the fire contin- ued down the street for two blocks, de- stroying everything in the way. There was no wind blowing at the time. The loss will amount to nearly $37,000; the insurance is about $10,000. The princi- pal losers are Ed Pursell, hotel and con- tents, loss $11,500; Dave Rudee, stock ot merchandise, $15,000; John Bohrbough, five buildings, valued at $8000; Willlam Grist, dwelling and contents, $1500; Harry Shutler, house and goods, $500; ;’ia}o{' Goldberg, safe and office furniture, ——————— Lake Stenmship Burned.

From the condi- tion and position of the clothing it is evi- dent that Freudenthal had disrobed to take a bath in the river and was drowned in a decp hole at that point. Freudenthal was unable to swim, an probably walked out on a little sandba which covers the rocks at that point to} where the water was about two feet deep. | From the edgs of the rock there is a sheer drop off into a hole varying with | the height of the river of from eight to twelve feet. There is a whirlpool in the | hole and the water is very swift. Being | unable to swim, and there being no one| at hand to assist him, the unfortunate young man ‘undoubtedly lost his life at| that place. ~ He had been sick for some time previ- | ous to his disappearance, and when his| absence was first discovered it was thought that his mind was temporarily deranged and that he had wandered away into the hills. Two men in the employ of the com- pany are making a search of the river bed from Clear Creek down. Freudenthal was the sole support of a mother and two sisters, who live in San Francisco. —_—————————— struck the rocky coast, punctured her bottom and partly sank. Such is the report that came to-day from the Ocean House at Mendocino and closest to the point of the wreck. At 11 o'clock the position of the deomed steamer had not changed and she was still lying broadside on the beach, de- fying the heavy seas which continually wash her up on the cruel and jagged rocks. A heavy fog still overhangs the coast at the cape, but the vessel is plainly discernible from the lighthouse. The beach is remarkably free from wreckage, clearly indicating that the sea has had but small damaging effect on the steamer up to the present, The beach is lined with wreckers, people flocking to the scene with the hope of securing relics or other valuables. Con- | spicuous among these are Indians, who are gathered in large numbers and pa- tiently awaiting the disintegration of the hull of fron, which will release every- thing that will float. Owing to the na- ture of the coast, however, it is very improbable that anything will be of much value after it strikes the shore.

Not oply Captain Wold but the other ship- ping men here consider any such move impractical and no such proposition has been entertained since the tug arrived last night with the crew and reported the condition of the wreck. Additional information confirming the reports that the steamer Tricolor was still intact on the Mendocino beach was received upon the arrival of the Corona to-day. Captaln Gielow stated that shortly after docking his steamer he passed the Tricolor at 9 o'clock this morning. He drew in close enough to get a good view of the stranded steamer. . When seen by him the Tricolor was ly-1 ing parallel with the coast. It was high water at the time, but the Tricolor seemed to be well out of the water.

This company has 76 miles of road, but the valuation of rails and roadbed are not given in his report. The gross earn- ings for the year were $145,164 97 and the operating expenses $113,154 leaving a gross income of 332,010 42.

SANTA ROSA, July 26.—A. J. Grill, who is in jail here charged with the murder of W. S. Pearce in Alexander Valley Sunday night, is making denlals that are damaging his case. The colns | which he gave the dead man’s little daughter and which he is supposed to have stolen from her father are identi- cal with the coins Pearce is known to have had just prior to his death. This i one strong point against him. Grill's examination will take place in Healds- burg next Friday. YOUNG FARMER IS BADLY MAIMED IN HARVEST FIELD Hand Is Caught in Running Belt of a Threshing Machine and is Torn Of. SANTA ROSA, July 26.—An accident occurred near this city this merning in which James Thornton, a young farmer, had his right hand torn off from his arm and his body painfully bruised. He was one of a threshing machine outfit and was putting the belt on the revolv- ing drive wheel of the engine when his arm got caught between the belt ana the wheel rim. In an instant he was jerked from the ground and drawn over the wheel. The engine was quickly stopped, but not before the unfortunate man’s hand had been torn off. Held for Trial on Forgery Charge. SAN JOSE, July 26.—Frank L. Mor- rill, who was arrested on June 23 for attempting to pass checks to which he had forged the name of J. O. Hayes, was held to-day for trial in the Superior Court. Morrill attempted to obtain $5 on a $50 check from Dominic Ferrant, a saloonkeeper. When arrested a simllar check drawn on the First National Bank for $75 and bearing the forgea signature of Hayes was found in his possession. —e————————— Most of us would be contented with what we have if only our neighbors would be satisfled with a little less. was not a very heavy sea on, but spray could be seen near the stern. In the opinion of Captain Glelow if the present weather continues the Tricolor will not go to pleces for a month or more. With other shipping men, however, he says it is impossible to save the vessel. The United States revenue cutter Mc- Culloch left Humboldt Bay this even- ing with the officers and crew of the ill-fated Tricolor aboard. The cutter will arrive in the city at noon to-mor- row. The McCulloch arrived at the scene of the wreck early this morning, and, finding that the crew had deserted the ship and that no assistance could be rendered, came to Eureka this after- noon. It is stated to-night that the Tricolor 1s still in the same position, close in on the beach, and the waves seem to have little effect. Some of the stanchions are torn away. ATTEMPT IS MADE TO BRIBE A JUROR Money Offered Him to Hang the Jury in a Ticket Scalping Case. Special Dispatch to The Call PORTLAND, July 28.~—A sensation was sprung this aftérnoon when Joseph Hayes, a juror in the Caspary ticket scalping case, reportéed to Municipal Judge Cameron and other officials of the court that he was approached by an unknown man and offered $20 if he would agree to secure an acquittal or hang the jury. The case went on as scheduled, and after a brief deliberation the jury brought in a verdict of guilty. Hayes was approached by the man, who asked oconcerning the progress of the case. As he was a stranger to Hayes the latter asked to what case he referred and recelved a reply indicating the Caspary scalping case. The stranger then said that he had been asked by a prominent business man of Portland to offer Hayes $2) to secure an acquittal or hang the jury. Hayes told the man he would take the matter under advisement and meet him later to make an answer. To this the man replied that he must have a reply then and there or call off the offer. Hayes then said he would not accept. —_————————— Arrives With Japanese Coolfes. VICTORIA, B.
