ON EASTERN TRUCKS Dentine Easily Won the Champion Stakes at Chicago. GENTRY-PATCHEN MATCH The Rival Pacers Expected to Make the Race of Their Lives To-Day. THE NORTHERN LEGER RUN. Lord Zetland's Nighan Captured the Prize, With Jolcey's Tyranny Second. CHICAGO, 111., Aug. 21.— The 2:24 and 2:40 trots, together with the 2:20 pace. comprised the card to-day, with Maud B (2:29^) and Damiana (2:22',). both by Nutwood, driven by their owner, James Stinson, to beat the" pole record of 2:20, were thrown in for full measure. Iwo essays' were made, both failures, in 2:34% and 2:24><. The card itself was wholly un interesting, for one horse in each event outclassed the field. In the champion stakes there was nothing which could make Dentine, capable of doing a mile in 2:10, step at all lively, and she won three straight heats in jogs. To-morrow at 2:30 the first heat in the Gentry-Patchen race will be called for the special purse of $3000. Both McHenry and Curry declare that they will win and that both ef the pacers are fit for the race of . their lives. , '.

Many Expressed the Belief That the Cup Would Cross the Water. NEW YORK, N. V., Aug. 21.— The Val kyrie's lines were exposed to the gaze of the American public to-day, and from early morning until dark crowds thronged the Boston drydock at Erie Basin and speculated as to the chances of the Brit isher taking away the cup. The observers found many things to surprise them and pretty nearly every one went away with a better opinion of Britfsh cleverness and an increased respect for Watson as a designer than they had when tney came. A great many yachtsmen expressed the opinion that the Defender would have no walkover. The air of confidence of all on board the British boat made more or less of an impression on the crowd, and the talk of weakness shown by the Defender in yesterday's race was not without effect. It was 0:30 r. m. when Lord Dunraven's boat entered the drydock where the Defend er and Vigilant were put in shape last week. Like the Defender and Vigilant, Valkyrie 111 is more of a racing machine than she is a boat, in the general acceptance of the term. She resembles the American more than the English ideas in her design. She is as far removed from the English cutter as the Defender is from the American cen terboard type. The English boat has a fine keel, similar to the Defender's, and a breadth of beam that suggests the Vigilant. It is nlain that Designer Watson has taken American ideas, as shown in the Vigilant, Navahoe and Jubilee, and carried them out in some re spects further than has been done on this side. The spars and rigging of the Valky rie look far stronger and more capable of standing severe strains than those of the Defender. Mr. Kersey said that the yacht would re main in the dock until Monday, and would then be floated and go to the Horseshoe, where she would anchor. Her sails are not to be bent until she leaves the dock. Sobbed on a Steamer. SANTA BARBARA, Cal., Aug. 21.— D. T. Simmons, who took passage from San Luis Obispo on the steamer St. Paul on her last southward trip, reaching here Sunday, discovered after reaching Santa Barbara that he had robbed of $70 in gold an d $50U worth of jewelry, left in a valise in the hands of the baggageman of the steamer. The steamer returned to port to day, and City Marshal Hopkins boarded her. making a thorough search of the sail ors' bunks and all possible places where the stolen treasure might have been con cealed, but without result.

ALONG THE COAST Tale of Two Wrecks in the Bering Sealing Grounds. A GREAT LOSS OF LIFE. Eleven Corpses Found In the Forecastle of the Walter Earle. NOT A SOUL SAVED FROM HER. The Schooner Brenda Went to Pieces Near the Coast of Shumshu Island. SEATTLE. Wash., Aug. 21.— The steam ship Excelsior, Captain Higgins, arrived to-day direct from St. Michaels and Una laska, and brings news of the finding of the wreck of the sealing schooner Walter Earle of Victoria, with eleven dead Indians confined in the forecastle. The wreck was sighted and picked ut> by the steamship Frances Cutting, from Seat tle to Kodiak, about the middle of July. The Earle was capsized on or about April 14, during a terrific gale off Kodiak Island, and though a number of craft and steamers were reported to have gone in search of her, none of them found her, un til the Cutting ran across her drifting with the swells and tides. She was bottom up, and there was nothing about her to indi cate that she had ever been sighted by passing vessels, or that any of the ill-fated crew had made any attempt to seek her upturned bottom in the hope of prolong ing their lives after she went over. Her rudder was gone, and this, to the practiced eye of the mariner, told the story of the wreck as well as words could have done. Losing her rudder during the fear ful blow that is known to have swept across that part of the ocean at that time, the vessel drifted helplessly in the raging sea until she suddenly went over and car ried all on board with her. Not until the wreck was towed into Ko diak and she was righted did the full enor mity of the catastrophe break upon the finders. In the forecastle were found the corpes of eleven Indians, unrecognizable, distorted and grim. They were removed to the shore and interred on the island. No white man's remains were found in the vessel, and the story of the struggle and drowning of Captain Louis Mognoson, her brave skipper, and the seven or eight other white men, will probably never be known. They occupied the cabin and are believed to have been swept from the deck of the schooner and drowned during the gale, while the Tndian sailors were hud dled helnlessly in the forecastle until she went over. None of the schooner's boats were about, and almost everything had been stripped away and was gone when she was picked up. The Earle was formerly the Sylvia Sand a of San Francisco. The steamship Excelsior also brought to Seattle three shipwrecked seamen, picked up at Unalaska, on the way down from St. Michaels, near the mouth of the Yukon River. The men are: Captain C. E. Locke of the Victoria sealing schooner Brenda; one sailor, Charles Nelson, and a cabin boy, Arthur Cox. The vessel was lost on July 1, by striking on a sunken rock near the coast of Shum shu Island, one of the chain of the Kurile Islands, forming a portion of the northern part of Japan. The schooner was in what arc known as the Kuri^ Straits, seeking water, for the lack of which the crew were almost dying, having been two days with out anything to quench their thirst. Captain Locke was entering a kind of harbor, the only one on the island, not withstanding it is about thirty miles in length. He was picking his way in cau tiously, when the vessel struck and held fast on a sunken rock not down on the charts. Later a storm came up and drove the vessel on the beach, where she was later stripped and abandoned. Captain Locke took off his 881 skins, his guns, ammuni tion and some provisions and went ashore, where a hut was erected and where they went into camp to await rescue. This came six days later, when the British seal ing schooner Genevieve, Captain O'Leary, came up the straits and took them off. From Shumshu Island Captain Locke was taken to Otter Island, and from there reached Unalaska by the Alaska Com mercial Company's trading vessel, and from there to Seattle he took the Excelsior. To-morrow Captain Locke will go on to Victoria. Telling of his experience Cap tain Locke said : "We sailed from Victoria in the Brenda on January 15 last, with a full crew of hunters and seamen, to the number of twenty-six. We headed for Yokohama, Japan, and from there sailed to the sealing grounds off the coast of Japan. On the way to Otter Island we were detained by calms and fog and our water ran short, and we were forced to run in sooner than we would have done to seek a new supply. "In going into Shumshu Island on July 1 we struck on a rock not down on the chart. There was no fog or storm of any kind at the time, but after we cot ashore a southeast gale came on and drove the ves sel upon the shore. She was a 100-ton boat. "We had tried previously to get ashore, where we might get water, but only suc ceeded in getting a couple of barrels out to the vessel by a small boat. This was on Parmashir Island, and I traveled one day ten miles to find water. The islands are uninhabited and have no harbors. "Captain O'Leary, who rescued us, him self came near being wrecked, for he got lost in the fog and hove to, and when it cleared him he found himself dangerously near shore. He sailed up the straits, and it was the luckiest thing in the world for us, for he sighted our tent on shore, came in and anchored and took us off. We put our skins aboard the Genevieve, and later the members of the Brenda's crew dis tributed themselves among the sealing schooners and are now in Bering Sea." ABAyDOXED IX MIDOCEAX. San Diego Shipping Men Attempt to Iden tify the Wreck Seen by the Caator. SAN DIEGO, Cal., Aug. 21.— The British bark Castor, lately arrived at San Fran cisco from Newcastle, Australia, reports that on July 1, in latitude 1:40 south, lon gitude 169:04 west, she passed the hull of a wooden vessel of between 1000 and 1200 tons register. The hull was intact, but all the spars and jibboom were gone. There was no sign of life on board. Shipping men here are inclined to be lieve the wreck was the American bark Colorado, Captain Whitmore, bound from Newcastle for this port and now ninety , ' NEW TO-DAY-CI-OTHINO^^ IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS That Occurs Once in a Lifetime !

She left Newcastle a few days before the Castor, and would take the same course across that portion of the Pacific. She is the only wooden vessel bound from Australia to this coast which could have been in that position on July 1. The wreck may be that of a lumber ves sel bound for Australia, but in that case it is probable the Castor would have noticed the deckload. It is regarded as probable that a sudden squall dismantled the bark and that the crew managed to get away in boats or were swept overboard. The only wooden vessels bound to this coast are the American bark Harvester, 1438 tons, and the Nicaraguan bark Do minion, 1255 tons. Both are on the way to San Francisco, but only seventy and fifty-four days out respectively. Though no special uneasiness is felt for the Colorado on account of her being out ninety days, it is admitted to be rather a long passage. She has not been reported since sailing, though the British bark Beeswing, which sailed one day later, has been spoken off this coast. Taking all these facts together, it is feared that the dismantled hull floating somewhere be tween Fiji and Hawaii is the bark Colo rado. TEST CASE AT &AXTA AX A.

A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE. Grace Pinney Fell Down the Face of a Cliff for One Hundred Feet, LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. 21.— Grace Pinney, the 16-year old daughter of George Pinney, had a narrow escape from death at Catalina Island yesterday. While climbing the cliff near Sugar Loaf she lost her footing and fell a distance of 100 feet, striking against the rocks in her descent. She fell into the water in a bed of kelp, from which she was rescued by a party of fishermen. When drawn into the boat she was unconscious. One leg was broken and her body was one mass of bruises. She was carried to the hotel, where she re ceived medical attention. Her escape from a terrible death is well-nigh miraculous. MUSE OF A JiANUIT.

Lusk, who wns arrested for the embezzle ment of $80,000 at Long Beach, Wash., yesterday, was cashier of the First National Bank of this city is false. There is no j bank of that name here. The man is known, however, as the party who swin- j died the Wichita National Bank out of $2000 about two years ago. He operated ben under the name of Stewart. He came here professing to be a man of large means and ingratiated himself into the favor of Professor E. H. Fritch, president of the \ Southwestern Business College, and other citizens. Fritcli gave him an introduc tion to the president of the Wichita Na tional Bank, and Stewart deposited a bogus draft in the bank. Before returns had been heard from the draft Stewart called at the bank with a friend, and on the pre text that he wanted to make a land deal was permitted to check out the amount of the draft. Stewart, alias Lusk, disappeared immediately thereafter. 0 LIBELED AT FOBTLAXD. The British Ship Orealla Arrived With out a Bill of Health.
