REFUSED O | CVEHS Survivor of Valencia De- clares Educator Seemed to Be Leader of Party Which Abandoned Those on Ship STARTLING EVIDENCE AT INVESTIGATION Rescued Ones Tell of Panic on Board Doomed Vessel, Worthless Lifebelts and How Boats Were Swamped SEATTLE, Jan. 8lL—In his testimony | before the board of inquiry into the Va- lencia disaster this afternoon, George | Belogus, a Greek coalpasser aboard the | wrecked vessel and one of the nine per- sons who reached the shore soon after the ship struck the rocks, declared that he wanted to remain on the shore and attempt to rescue other passengers. “Mr. Bunker” he sald, “appeared to be the leader of the party and when I sug- gested that we stand by the ship he said: ‘I have lost my wife and two children and now I am going to save my own life. The witness sald that the entire party ‘lof nine then. struck inland and when they reached-the telegraph line he again urged Bunker to turn back, but that the latter refused and the party started away, leaving him standing whefé he was. “I was without shoes,” said Belogus, “and becoming . afraid I followed the rest.” A majority of the witnesses examined this afternoon were members of the Va- lencia’s crew. Each testified that the captain's orders were to lower the boats to the saloon deck rail and that the pas- sengers were responsible for the boal being placed in the water. Gregg D. Harden, a passenger, says the ropes broke when an attempt was made to lower the middle starboard boat. His mother went In one of the first boats launched and was lost. He was of the opinion that 'a lifeboat could have ap- ‘proached the wreck fromiseaward. He cald that a passenger aboard the boat, whose name-is unknown, was the first ; 3 = Blue Bull 11 12| Laguna . 2 26 | Brooklyn 02 03 Lone Sta 08 10 Btte Goldfisld 20 25{ May Quee 26 28 Bull & Bear. 04 05 McMahon 10— Booth .. — 42 44 >0 D. 40 10 11 Columbia. — 08| Nev Goldfield. 18 — Columbla Mt. 25 26 New Southern. — . 11 Com Fraction 30 35!

NUGLET HAZERS” VICTIN ARMY- OFFICER ' WORTH $50000 LEAVES SCHOOL IN FIST FICHT ' Pocket in Mine at Columbla Hill in Tuolumne County Ylelds Fortune to Owner —_— WILDEST EX(;ITEML’\*T Night and Day the Valuable Guarded by Armed Men Special Dispatch to The Call. STOCKTON, Jan. 31 —The Dondero pocket mine at Columbia Hill, in Tuol- umne County, ylelded nearly $50,000 received from Sonora to-day. The mine has yielded several pockets heretofore, but yesterday's find was one of.the greatest in the history of Tuolumne County. The mine is owned by John Dondero. The -pocket found.yesterday was almost one solid lump of pure gold. The strike caused the wildest excite- ment in mining circles in and about Sonora. — to suggest that a shelter be erected to protect the women and children. Tony Brown, a passenger, declared that he tried to plck up a waterlogged tule life belt off the beach which he thought weighed about fifty or sixty pounds, A tule preserver from the Valencia which had been immersed for thirty-six hours | was pointed out to him and he was asked | to lift it. “The belt on shore w:lzhbd as much as this,” he safd. “Lift it clear out of the the'r. said one of the inspectors, and the witness complied. To it was suspended a twenty- pound weight. Thomas Shields, a member of the vol- unteer crew which left the Valencla with Boatswain McCarty for assistance, testi- fled that three more people could have gotten into the boat he left in. Shields sald when asked by the Inspeotors that a small boat could have lived in the sea outside of the breakers, but not in where the Valencia lay. He also thought that it the lowering of boats had been de- ferred until morning the passengers would have stood - a better chance of rescue. Frank Richley, firemen’s mess boy of the vessel, testified that he went into the life boat with nothing rather than trust himself with a life preserver. “I never cared for those life pre- servers,” he said, ‘‘and thought I would stand a better chance swimming.” Richley accordingly jumped into the life boat and, after that boat had been cap- sized by a big wave, he managed to climb ‘on it and make his way ashore. Richley stated that when he arrived on the shore he found some of the others who had gone off in the boat, among whom was Frank F. Bunker. The inspectors next turned. their atten- tion to ascertaining why those who had come ashore with Richley7did not make their way up to the cliff where the line shot from the Valencia lay. Richley re- plied that he suggested that they do so. At this time the men were standing on the beach where they had first landed. Richley then suggested that the men go to the top of the hill. He stated that he could have reached .the point where the line lay, but was physieally unable to do S0, owing to his-ankle, which he says he hurt while making his way ashore. Richley denfed that he had made state- ments to a newspaper. correspondent that the officers of the vessel were “rattled.” He also denied making statements to.the effect that he would back Bunker up re- garding the life preservers; : Richley sals I Heard Cantain Johnson tell ‘the officers to prepare to lower the boats, 1 was stationed at No.. 2 boat. on_tbe starboard side. 1 went to the forward falls of the boat. It was so dark 1 could not ‘distinguish veople two feet away. Soon somebody let go the aft falls. I.accord- ingly let go mine. When we had lowered the boat to the saloon deck the passengers began crowding in. The rest of us. then. went down to the saloon deck. I asked them to at least make room for the women, who were standing about. I helped Mrs. Campbell, who. was the first woman to get into the boat. Her little girl orled and asked to go with her mother. 1 grabbed her and threw her into_the boat. 1 saw no men get out to make room. for the wome: Then some one yelled “Lower away!' I yelled -to First Officor Holme that there were too many people In the boat. T could not see any one. but the answer came. back: ‘‘Lower away that boat; what. the —— {s the matter with you?" Richley, in telling of the launching of No. 6 boat, stated that he did not know there was any officer in charge. When asked by the inspectors {f he did not know the second mate was with the boat he replied that he did not. “I thought there was nobody In com- mand, so I told them to get her out to sea.” The testimony of W. Joslyn, one of the sailors and also a member of the volun- teer crew which landed at Cape Beale. will be directed more toward the inspec- tion of the Valencla than toward finding. any neglect on the part of the officers, if any existed. Joslyn, in giving his testimony, stated knew - it. ‘'He. cald he had followed the sea éver since he was 9 years old. He sald 1 was stationed at No. 6. Richley was mis- | taken when he sajd he went out on No. 5. The passengers climbed on the boat without orders. I went in and screwed up the patent plugs. “The passengers were excited and" attempted to cut the falls..

As a result young Har~ ris announced to-day that he was going back to Carson with his mother and will not return this year at least. clares he does -not know. Harris and the students at first vil- orously denied, that any hazing had been done, but two other cases were - brought to light and explained the ter- ror which for a time rendered Harrls & subject for medical treatment. He admitted he was taken out by “the boys” and “lectured,” and that during the lecture “he fainted away.” This is- alt that {s thus far known of the | proceedings which have "led to the | withdrawal of Harris from the univer- sity. ——fe = off to-morrow.- Indians are reported to ‘have two other-bodies in theé bush. Bome changes are being proposed in the commissionérs appointed by the Dominion Government to investigate the wreck. The Young Liberal Assoclation adopted a resolution which- has been telegraphed to Ottawa requesting that' Captain Parry of H. M. 8. Egeria be asked to sit on the committee. The date of the first sit- ting is still uncertain, owing to the ab- sence of Captain Newcomb on board the steamship- Kestrel. 5 At P PERRY’S SEARCH VAIN.

All the large and small islands-at the .mouth of Bark- ley Sound were visited, three boats’ crews searching along the shore, but no wreck- age or bodies were. found, though con- siderable wreckage was seen: One of the boat crews which searched Turret - Island found a water soaked life preserver .on the beach above high water mark and found the.tracks”of a man's hobnall boots in the sand near the life preserver, but nothing was. found. of any human being on the fisland. Another boat crew met a.canoe in which was Charles Ross, the Indian policeman, who found the survivors of the life raft wrich ‘drifted to Turret Island, and the saifors, asked him if he had seen any bodies or wreckage. He sald he had not, but the cutter ran alongside his canoe and found. it laden with pileces of the staircase of the Valencla and other tim- bers and a keg of catsup. ' AT T APPEAL TO ROOSEVELT.

There are‘two versions to as much of the affair as the participants are willing to imvart to the public. Mystery sur- rounds the matter and therefore the mo- tive for the fight is uncertain One ver- sion has it that Captain In was wrathy over some insult, fancied or real, to some one whose identity is also a mystery. It seems thers were two' fights, one at Camp McKinley and the other in fromt of the Ocean View saloon on the Walkiki road. Whatever may have been the re- sult of the first fight is uncertain, but the second fight was not at all to Cap- tain Ingram’s credit, for eye witnesses say he called to his assistance several soldiers who, after beating young Cart- wright, were ordered to “tie him up" by their suverior officer. % One version is to the effect that Cap- tain Ingram and his wife were out walk- ing and meeting Cartwright the officer thought the latter was a soldler and tried to identify him. The reason for this is not apparent, though it is sald that the captain thought the stranger had’ been disrespectful to Mrs. Ingram. The result was a fight, in which the two rolled about in the grass and dust and pommeled each other. ———————— OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE - OF THE PACIFIC COAST Senate Passes Bill Making Port Har- NN ford and Monterey Ports of Entry.
