SATURDAY NOV. 13, 1875.
NEWS OF THE MORNING.
Additional news from Victoria rentiers it
almost certain that of the Bipwa— *m\ board
the steamer l'acitlc, only two escaped with
their lives.
The ship Orpheus, the vessel that collided
with the Paelde, was also wrecked. Hererew
reached land and were saved.
The eondiiioiiol the Vlee-President is favor
able fur a permanent recovery.
In our telegraphic columns will be found
the statement of the Captain of the Orjsheqs'
whose ship collided with tho Pacific.
Yesterday J. I. Urlnnell, Chief Clerk of the
Patent Office, was removed and Melvin 11.
Preut.of New York, appointed in his place.
A Wasbingtou dispatch ssys sixteen clerks
in the Patent Office who refused to pay the
political assessments of the Republican
Uuiua Committee, of which Chandler is Sec
retary, have been dismissed.
TheCiuibord funeral is announced to take
place curly next week, though the day is not
yet tlxed.
A Ualvoston dispatch says no news has yet
been beard of any of the passengers or crew
of the steamer City of Waco. The statement!*
of those on board other which were
lying iv the neighborhood of the burning ves
sel say no lioats could be launched from tlie
Waco, owing to the rapid spread of tho Are
and the rough water. All agreed as to hear
iug voices of wamen In the water, and some
huff a dozen persons were seen clinging to
floating spars iv tho water. The appearance
of fire was followed by several explosions in
rapid succession, probably the cans of coal
oil In the deck load. The deck seemed to bo
instuutly wrapped iv liames, which finally
burned low as the inflamahle malcrial was
exhausted. Pilot and sail boats are searching
along the West coast for survivors.
The item tbatßAiicocK private sec
retary of President Grant, antl Or
ville, the President's brother, have
beeu indicted for complicity iv whisky
frauds will be interesting to people on
the other side of tho globe, who have
beeu taught to believe that ours was
the purest and best Government the
world ever saw.
Another railroad nightmare has
visited Visalia. This time it Is a road
down the valley to connect with the
Stockton and Visalia road at Oak
dale. As the object ef tlie road is
competition we don't see how it can
be accomplished while the road now
completed to Oakdale remains the
property of the company that owns
all the roads In the valley.
The Marysville Appeal makes the
following pertinent remarks: One of
our communistic contemporaries,
speaking of the land-holders, says:
The only way to remedy the evil is to tax
these laiidgrabbers until they will ho glad to
give nu the land. This the next Legislature
can do If it will, and if it does not it is not
worthy the name of Democratic.
How will this rule work if applied
toother monopolies? Tax the rail
roads till they are willing to give up.
Tax the wealthy manufacturer until
he is willing to divide. Tax big print
ing otilces till they suspend antl give
uew adventurers a chauce.
The evening Express closes a long
article with the following sentence:
After all, the motive which animates man
kind to seek immunity from political op
pression neither differs in degree nor dignity
from tho motive which would urge litem to
seek immunity from the great social wrong
which we seeiuordiuale wealth has the pow
er to inflict.
This means if it means anything
that a people who will rebel against
the oppressions of Government can be
induced to break open the vaults of
men who have money and take by
force that which does not belong to
them. The insinuation is a libel on
the noblest instinct of humanity.
Theft aud patriotism are not so closely
allied as the Express, which of course
knows nothing of the incentives to
either, would have its readers believe.
A million Expresses each with a mil
lion times the ability of the commu
nist proselyte across the way, and all
doing their utmost to incite the peo
ple to deeds of rapine and plunder
could not attain their purpose. We
predict that the Express will fail in
its efforts to get up raids on banks and
rich men as it has failed In everything
else.
The "Express" Makes a Mistake.
The Exprrsaot last evening says the
Herald attacked tho patent of the
Pueute ranch for the purpose of com
passing the defeat of negotiations un
der way in San Francisco to relieve
the financial stress in Los Angeles.
This is misty—it is exceedingly misty.
"l'ueute—attacked—patent —negotia-
tions- financial stress—San Francisco
—Los Angeles." What does it all
mean? Is San Francisco negotiating
a stress in lios Angeles, and is tlie
Puente oue of the arbitrators? We
have no doubt there is news in this
thing if we could only understand it.
But we guess tbe Express is trying to
say that the Herald's allusions to
the Puente patent are intended to in
jure some one. If it intends this it
knows that it utters a deliberate false
hood. How our allusion to a matter
which the Southern Pacific Railroad
Company have already placed on rec
ord, and which belongs to a class of
issues which the Express first began
to discuss, can affect negotiations is a
coHundruni which cannot be fathomed
without the aid of a diagram. A lit
tle further on in the same article the
Express says of the Herald: "The
same paper lias mado it its special
business to velect the property of par
ties with whom it is unfriendly for its
venomous defamation." The com
munist organ is making the mistake
of measuring the Herald by its own
standard. We remember that a few
months ago it. was "unfriendly" with
Mr. Beacdry, and though that gen
tleman stands among the first citizens
of this city it attacked himself and his
property, and actually manufactured
or otherwise produced statements from
other parties to prove that he had ac
quired some of his lands by the most
fraudulent means. The whole com
munity is aware that the Express
does the very sort of thing it so falsely
accuses the Hkkai.o of doing.
A Communist Journal.
If we remember correctly, the col
umns of the Evening Express of this
city contained, a few weeks ago, an
article eulogistic of the business tact,
management and financial ability of
the noted banking and mining firm oi
Flood & O'Brik* of San Francisco.
The article was characteristic of its
source and was therefore fulsome and
nauseating to a degree that must have
caused a smile to Bit over the faces of
Us subjects did they ever chance to
read it. Remembering this elfusion
we were amused and astonished on
glancing at a later production which
served as a leader in Thursday even
ing's issue of the Express, in which
Messrs. Flood &o'Bkikn are pointed
out by name as money tyrants and
oppressors, to suppress whom the Leg
islature aud mob violence were in
voked. The article is an embodiment
of the strongest kind of Communist
doctrine. If the power of the Express
could be made proportionate with its
egotism, we should soon have an equal
division of propeity, nud the man who
has devoted the best years of his life
to the accumulation of a competency
would be called upon to share his
means with the spendthrift, the prof
ligate and the loafer. You men who
have been guilty of the unpardonable
crime of acquiring property, read this
threat from the Communist lumi
nary:
In llmesoflnmine,tlio law maybe properly
Invoked to forbid theexportntion and to com
fiel the fair distribution of food. If tbe hoard
ug and locking up of money can be carried to
an extent that produces a wide stretch of ruin
and universal suffering, the same piinciplc
can be justly invoked and t lie laws fashioned
to prevent Individuals from exercising a pow
er SO prejudicial and destructive.
Flood dc O'Brien, who seem to be
the parties at whom the great leveler
is aiming its shafts,come in for the fol
lowing:
It Is generally said and universally believed
that the great mining and banking firm of
Klood A O'Brien bavc no less than thirteen
million of dollars which they have withdrawn
and now keep from circulation. If this report
is true, and we arc inStined to credit it, these
men are possessed of S power which is so colos
sal and so wide-reaching in lis character thai
their conduct becomes the proper subject of
public criticism. The accidental possession
of great wealth, when it is used to cripple arid
oppress the affairs of an entire people, be
comes v misfortune so far-reaching in its ef
fects aa to justily tho discussion of a HOW
principle iv social comity, and to cause us to
seriously determine how far tlie individual
right of possession shall be permitted to in
terfere with the general wealth ol the com
munity.
And then they are notified of what
may.be their fate unless they consent
to dispense their money to whomever
may demand it, in the following
threatening manner:
Inordinate wealth In the hands of a lew in
dividuals can he made an engine of great op
pression, as we see iv the present instance,
aud us society is organized not lor the bench!
of a RTW men hut for the whole, the question
naturally arises how fur are the great mSSI pi
Ihe people bound to sutler so that the few
who may carry out their personal and opprSS"
slvc designs?" As tlie great mass of society
are those who would have lo determine this
question when forced to a definite Issue, it is
easy to foretell In what way they would de
cide it. The lew would h .ye to go to the wall.
We have before alluded to the cloven
foot which so frequently presented it
self under the present management of
the Express, but tho article from
which we make the above extracts is
the strongest evidence that there is a
large-sized donkey beneath tho spa
cious lion's skin that lias yet present
ed itself. Danton and Robespierre,
in their wildest strides at leveling,
never expressed sentiments sodestrue
tive to society as are embodied iv the
editorial in question. If the people of
the United States have to Inquire, into
the amount of money tlie citizens pos
sess, and limit industry and enter
prise to the gauge fixed by this com
munist organ, we have arrived at a
pretty pass indeed. What have Flood
& O'Brien and Mackky& Fair done
that the next Legislature and mob
violence must be invoked to curtail
their progress - .' What have Milton
S. Latham and the London and Sau
Francisco Bank done that they must
give an account of the motives that
impelled them to retain a sufficient
sum in their vaults to meet the recent
run, and thus protect themselves,their
depositors, creditors and correspond
ents against loss? Does tho Erj>rcss
wish its readers to understand that its
onslaught is made upon FLOOD &
O'Brien because they have refused to
loan money on unsatisfactory secu
rity?

Santa Monica Items.
[From the Outlook Nov. 10th.]
During the past few days several
vessels loaded with lumber arrived at
Santa Monica. Both lhe yards havo a
full supply of all kinds.
Since our last issue work has com
menced on six new buildings. Be

THE PACIFIC DISASTER.
Tbe Vessel that sunk tbe l'lirilic also
Wrecked.
Tout Townkknd, Nov. 12th. —The
revenue cutter Oliver Woleott return
ed at v a. ii, and brought M. O. Han*
ley, the quartermaster, but no other
survivor* were found, nor were there
lound traces of any. Tlie cutter had
very heavy weather, in fact a gale has
been-blowing since the night of the
wreck. The coast South of Capo Flat
tery was searched for twenty miles,
also Barclay island, thirty-five miles
to the North of Vancouver island. At
Copper island they found ('apt. Saw
yer, with his crow, of the ship Orphe
us, which was the ship that collided
with the Pacific. After the collision
the ship lay hove-to until Friday
morning, repairing, after which she
made for the land. Mistaking the
light on Cape Ileal for Tootoosch, she
ran ashore at 5 o'clock Saturday
morning. The ship was a total loss.
Search has been kept up with energy
In the face ol* extremely bad weather,
aud there is but little hope of any
more of the Pacllie's crew or passen
gers being saved.
San Francisco, November 12th.—
The ship Orpheus, the vessel supposed
to have collided wilh the steamer Pa
cillc, is a total wreck on Copper island,
Barclay SOUud. Nothing saved. More
particulars to follow.
The Star, of this city, last evening
published an extra containing the fol
lowing:
San Francisco, November 12th.—
We have another chapter in the thrill
iu<> history of the loss of the steamer
Piic illc.
While the Woicott was on its mis
sion of search, and while making un
examination of all tho inlets and eui
barcaderos for nearly twenty-live
miles South of Capo Flattery, it came
across Captain Sawyer (ami wife) ami
a crew of twenty men, of the ship Or
pheus, encamped on the beach on one
of tlie small sounds on Vancouver
island.
Captain Sawyer states that his ship
was struck abaft the fore chain, and
that, as quick as it takes to say it, the
entire starboard gear was curried
away.
His ship lay to, he says, until about
S o'clock Friday afternoon, during
which time tiie crew was engaged iv
making repairs. Finding his ship in
v bad condition, he deemed it neces
sary to run in for land; but, mistak
ing the light at Cape Beats for Loo
toosch light, he ran in to .shore. This
was about live o'clock Suturday morn
ing.
His ship, he says, will prove a total
loss. The Captain and bis wife and
all the crew, except the Mate of the
Orpheus, was carried to Fort Towns
end.
The Woicott reports a succession of
storms, taking the weather altogeth
er, since the disaster.
There is now no hope of picking up
any more of the piwsengers or crew of
the Pacific, but it is hoped that some
of them may have been picked up and
curried into more distant ports.
The Woicott returned to Port Town
send at a quarter to ten o'clock this
morning, and reports that they found
no survivors but O'Haley, whose brief
statement I sent you last Bight, The
body of Robert Jones, an under stew
ard, was found and buried. The Woi
cott has prosecuted a most thorough
search in the face of almost Spitzber
gen weather.
The statement of Captain Sawyer
will be looked for with unabated anx
iety. The firm of Goodall, Nelson &
Perkins, huve Spared no pains or ex
pense in the search for survivors, nnd
for the vessel which took part in the
collision, for Capt. Nelson has stuck
to it that the disaster was the result
of a collision. Why the collision
should have taken place is the myste
ry. Captain Sawyer's statement will
either clear up this mystery or make
it more painfully obscure.
The Herald's special dispatches of
last night give the following addi
tional particulars:
Port Townsend, November 12th.—
Tbe steamer Gussie Talfair arrived at
Neali Bay on Tuesday morning and
joine<l tho revenue cutter Oliver Woi
cott In tho search. She nicked up
three bodies, one a woman, who was
recognized as Mrs. Wm. Lawson, and
two men, one of whom was a Mr. Vi
ning, of Puyallup, and the other is
supposed to be a fireman. The Woi
cott picked up two trunks. One of
them, from the contents, was found to
belong to Mrs. Lawson, as it was tilled
with women's and children'sclothing.
On the outside 01 it was a leather tag
marked Mrs. W. Lawson, Bank of
British North America, San Francisco.
The other trunk belonged to the horse
tamers Buck well A- liurlburt, who are
known to have taken passage in the
unfortunate vessel. All day on Tues
day a terrific storm raged, ami it was
impossible to go outside of tho Capo,
so all the labor of I! c two steamers
was devoted to searching the North
and South shores of the straits, with
only the results above indicated.
On Wednesday the weather mode*
rated and the commander of the Wal
cott determined to search the shore of
Vancouver island as far North as Bar
clay Sound, thirty-five miles from
Cui>e Flattery. About the same time
the steamer Telfair started on bet
search to the Southward. During the
passage along the Vancouver shore all
the Indians seen were communicated
with, but further than the fact that
some light timbers, deck buckets and
boxes bad been found by them, noth
ing was ascertained. Steaming Up
Barclay Sound the first Indian village
was bailed aud a canoe came oilcon- 
taining a white man,who came aboard
and introduced himself as the first
mate of the ship Orpheus. He stated
that she had been run into the Thurs
day night, previous and was wrecked
on the following Saturday morning on
the island near by—Copper island.
The captain and crew had got ashore
safely and were encamped further up.
Proceeding in tlie direction indicated
another canoe approached, in which
was Captain Sawyer, of the ship Or
pheus. He gave the following ac
count of the recent diraster: On
Thursday evening he was approaching
the Cape and was by his reckoning
about 20 miles off, with a fresh South
east breeze, steering about Northwest
before the wind. His man at the
wheel first saw tbe steamer's head
light off the port bow, and immedi
ately after straight ahead. He could
see neither of her side lights and could
not make out which direction she was
coming. He put his helm a-starboard
and turned his ship's head offshore.
The light came nearer and he contin
ued lo starboard his helm until his
vessel had turned around, his sails flat
aback and his ship hove to. The
steamer by this time had got very near
him and blew her whistle and in less
than half a minute after her bow
struck his ship a glancing blow just
abaft the fore chains, crushing in the
rail and breaking his planking down
to near the copper. She surged along
side, stiiking and grating along his
.starboard side, carrying away all his
starboard braces and rigging on that
side and also his foretopinast and top
gallantmast. Capt. Sawyer states that
he hailed the steamer as she surged
pa.-t and called to them to lay by him
aud send him a boat, as he then sup
posed his ship to be in a sinking con
dition, but no one answered his hail.
Neither did he see any one on her
deck. She drifted or steamed away,
he was not certain which, and he af
terwards saw a flash of light, which he
took for a Signal. He thought they
hud heard his hail and would lay by
him. Ho saw no more and his shipat
that time demanded all his attention.
He lay to the remainder of that night
and nearly till day Fridsy repairing
his rigging, aud that afternoon got
under way again and made sail for the
land. Soon alter dark lie made a
light:, which he took tor Cape Flattery,
not knowing that there was a light on
the coast farther North. He ullowed
five miles clearance for Duncan Rock
and considered himself safe for enter
ing tlte Straits of Fuca, when about
live o'clock Saturday morning his
ship scraped over a reef and immedi
ately after struck her bow on a rock
and stuck fast and tilled. Tiie light lie
mistook for Flattery was Cape Reale,
the entrance of Barclay Sound, 35
miles North of the former. How the
ship escaped the dangers passed before
she struck is a mystery to all who
havo examined the Admiralty Chart
of Barclay Sound. The ship will prove
a total loss. Capt. Sawyer got all the
valuables he could out of her and en
camped on the shore with his wife anil
crew in tents made of her sails. He
had bTred a canoe from the Indians
and started his mate to Victoria for
help, but the weather was so bad that
the Indians would not. venture out on
the voyage, so they were found when
the Walcott arrived.
Lieutenant Harwood look all of
them aboard his vessel Willi the most
valuable portion of the goods saved,
leaving tae First Mate of the Orpheus
in charge of the wreck until the own
ers could be consulted. All were landed
safely at Port Townsend on Friday
morning nothing was heara of or se*>n
in Barclay Sound of anything pertain
ing to the unfortunate Pacilic. So
ends the sad story of the loss of a
steamer, with only two lives saved
and four bodies recovered, aud a fine
shipwrecked, forming In the combi
nation one of the most melancholy
catastrophes ever occurring on this
part of the Pacific coast. Too much
praise cannot be given to Capt. Har
wood and the other officers and crew
ef the revenue cutter Wolcott for the
energy and activity shown on this oc
casion, and also to Peter Thompson,
pilot, who volunteered his services, as
he was well acquainted with the
shores of Vancouver island and the
surroundings of the Straits of Fuca;
and also to Mr. Huntington, the In
dian Agent at Neah Bay reservation,
and in fact all with whom we came
in contact. Capt. Harwood and the
pilot, Peter Thompson, went to the
wreck of the Orpheus and examined
it carefully. They say that the ship
was undoubtedly struck by the steam
er just abaft the forward rigging.
