MATE JORNSON 15 CENSURED Captain Bermingham Tartly Suggests the Chain Gang for Careless Mariners INSPECTORS ARE UPHELD Stranding of Vessels on-the Northern Coast Is Much Too Frequent, He Remarks “I have no patience with a mariner who negligently strands a steam vessel on the coast of California when bound to or from the Columbia River or Puget Sound. If a law were enacted to put a mariner, responsible for a disaster of that charac- ter, to work breaking stones for public roads, if only for a brief period, aucl'tI would have a wholesome and salutary | effect in preventing the too frequent stranding of vessels on those routes.” These scorching words were written yesterday by United States Supervising Inspector John Bermingham in a decision sustaining the action of United States Local lxpectors Bolles and Bulger for having spended for six months E. E. Johnson of the steamer Santa Barbara, which was run ashore near Point Arena on October 1. Johnson took an appeal to | the Supervising Inspector and was re- | warded very frankly with the opinion of Captain Bermingham. The Supervising Inspector further said: As declared by the lower court, Captain Zaddart was negligent in not putting his or- | ders for the night in an order book, with most positive instructions to be called at a time prior to the possibility of the ship taking the shore for which she was headed at an angle of about half a point to get into smoother water, which was a reasonable procedure if | the miost ordinary care had been exercised in | her navigation. She actually took the bottom a little to the westward of the point she was deliberately steered for. | The appellant canuot escape his share of the responsibility for the stranding of the Santa | Barbara. True, he was not on deck at the | time of the actual occurrence; his relief took place, though, a few minutes previous to that, | and at & time when the land was obscured by | the prevalence of a haze, such as the master | had ordered that he should at once be madé aware of. That It was then clear off shore is no mitigation of the negligence and unskill- fulness on the part of the appellant, who was the ranking deck officer on that occasion, and €0 supposed to possess superior intelligence; hence he should have called the master before leaving the deck to the relieving officer. There- fore, the judgment of the lower court in the case of the appellant, E. E. Johnson, is hereby atfirmed., MISTAKES DAUGHTER FOR THIEF AND FIRES Merchant’s Revolver Ends the Life of His Own Child. Special Dispatch to The Call. UNIONTOWN, Pa., Nov. 6.—Believing that he was shooting at a burglar, Hay- den R. Craft, a killed hts daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth Cod- dington, aged 19 yvears, at their hame in West Main street this morning. Mrs. Coddington and her husband, Charles Coddington, lived with the former's parents. Coddington was ill, and at 1:30 o'clock this morning his wife went to the kitchen to get ice. The door closed behind her and locked itself with a spring lock. Finding she could not open the door she worked quietly at the lock, S0 as not to arouse the other members of |.the family. Her father was awakened by the sound, and going to the door called twice. Re- ceiving no response he fired through the door with a thirty-eight caliber revolver. Hearing a body fall on the other side | of the door, Craft ran out into the street in his nightclothes and told Harry March he had shot a burglar. March ran with Craft to the latter's home and found Mrs. | Coddington on the floor unconscious, with blood oozing from a wound in the top of | her forehead. The father fell to the floor, exclaiming: J | “My God! I have killed my daughter. The wounded woman died at 3:05 o’clock without having regained consciousness. RAILROAD MUST PAY BACK BANK'S MONEY Re-| Government Demands turn of the Enterprise Concern’s Funds. Special Dispatch to The Call. | PITTSBURG, Nov. 6.—Unless the Santa Fe Central Rallroad Company be able within a very short time to raise enough money to pay off the loans made by Cashier Clark of the wrecked Enterprise National Bank Receiver Cunningham will go into the courts of New Mexico and ask for a receiver for the railroad. This gourse was decided upon to-day by Gov- ernment officials. It is said the rail- road company will not be given longer than until the middle of next week to pay. The statement has been given tq Walter Lyon, counsel for the rallroad, and it is understood that every effort has been made this week to raise the money. What success has been met with is not announced. “Bull' Andrews, State Senator Arthur Kennedy, Francis Torrance and the late T. Lee Clark were back of the Santa Fe Central and the failure of the Santa Fe system to take over the Santa Fe Central precipitated the suicide of Clark and the closing of the bank. Kennedy is now in New York, it is sald, trying to gell the road. b ——————————— JODY OF MAN WHO DIED e IN JAIL IS UNIDENTIFIED Pwo Persons View Remains and Each Gives the Unfortunate Differ- ent Name.

There already has been appropriated for this purpose $28,963,434. Permanent projects at thirty-one different points have been adopted and most of them are well un- der way. Among these polnts are San Diego, Cal., San Francisco, Columbia River and Puget Sound. The defense of the great lakes and the St. Lawrence is under considera- tion. The estimates for the completion of the fortifications do not contemplate anything more than the projects out- MILLIONS lined by the Endicott board. Modern appliances and additional projects, which may be adopted by the Taft board appointed last summer, and the fortifications of the insular possessions may increase the estimate when addi- tional work is approved by Congress. It is estimated that $4,263,364 will be | required to put into execution by the engineering department the schemes of | the artillery and signal corps for fire control of the seacoast defenses. Among the estimats for continuing | contracts are the following: San Pedro harbor, California, $360,000; mouth of Columbia River, $390,000; Honoiulu harbor, Hawaii, _$200,000; " Wilmington harbor, ~Calit fornia, $100,000; Oakland harbor, California, $250,000; San Pedro Bay, Calitornia, $81,000 Columbia River at The Dalies, Oregon, $250, 000; Columbia River, between - Vancouver, Wash., and the Willamette River, Oregon, $30,000; Columbla River and lower Willamette River, below Portiand, $125,000. _ CLEVELAND DECLINES PLACE ON REED MEMORIAL BOARD Sends a Donation, However, to Show Esteem In Which He.

Reed Memorial Asso- | ciation In answer to a request that his name be included in the list of the di- rectors with his consent was made public to-day and is as follows: Your recent letter asking me to become a director of the Thomas H. Reed Memorial Assoclation is at band. I had great admira- tion for Mr. Reed and great respect for his abllity. ‘I think 1t is emifiently proper that his. high -character ‘ahd public service should be_fiitingly memorialized. It seems, to me, however. that this should be_undertaken by. those who were neager to him in every way than I can claim to have been. Another reasan stronger than this for hesitation identifled with a project to which I cannot give the least attention. I am not at ail satisfled to be nominally a director In such a movement without performing any useful duty and this would be my-exact predicament should I accept such a place in the directorate of_your association. 1 do not want to be suspécted of ungracious- ness or lack of Interest but if I may be allowed to modestly contribute instead of ap- pearing as a director I shall feel much more comfortable. The letter was accompanied by a gen. crous. contribution. —_——— MEMBERS OF CONGREGATION TAKE PLACE OF LABORERS Men and Women Work to Repailr and Improve Church in Anaconda. ANACONDA, Mont., Nov. 6.—The members of the Methodist congregation here have beén repairing and improv- ing their church with their own hands. Capitalists, who can write their checks to cover six figures or more, lawyers, professional men, clerks and boekkeep- ers have taken off their coats and donned overalls while they wrestled with rusty and grime covered pipes, wielded a saw.or hammered nails as the occaston demanded. Artisans have been employed in the daytime to do the work that required | their special skill, but much of the rou-, tine has been done in the evening by the rank and file of the congregation. The volunteers have set and connected the boilers and pipes for the heating plant and have laid the floors. Twice the ladies have - descended upom the kirk < with scrubbing brushes and brooms, soap and hot water. Dr. Ware, the pastor, is extremely proud of his flock, and has, moreover, done his share of the manual labor. ‘The entire amount to be spent upon im- provements will aggregate $10,000. ———— PRESIDENT'S OLD GUIDE EXPECTS POLITICAL JOB “BilI” Sewall Belleves He Is to Collector of Customs for Aris- took District.
