Badly Exhausted.
TWO DAYS IN AN OPEN BOAT.
Th* Steamer Strnok on Santa Rosa
Island and Rapidly Want to
Floors—Details or tha
Disaster.
Half a dozen tired and weather
beaten men, who had been in an open
boat working at the oars for two days
•nd nights arrived at Port Los Angeles
yesterday morning. With them came
tbe first intelligence of tbe total loss of
tbe British ateamahip Crown of England
on the rocks at Santa Roea island. The
vessel struck Thursday morning, during
• dense fog, climbing on the rocks at
the southwest point of the island, and
in a heavy swell that prevailed was
belted, battered and jammed untii she
ie now a complete wreck. A few hours
•fter striking the bottom dropped out
of the vessel, tbe stern post was
broken off and all tbat remains is a job
for the wreckere.

Fortunately do liven were loat, the 2.
men, comprising offioere and crew
climbed down tbe aide of the vessel onto
the shore without tronble. During the
day the effects of officers and men, to
gether witb moat of tho ship's stores,
were taken ofT and camp made on tbo
lr' md, sails being used for making tents.
V. edneoday afternoon Captain James
Hamilton started to explore the island
for inhabitants, taking two of the aailora
with him. Tbev got lost and wandered
about the island all Wednesday night
•nd tbe greater part of Thursday. Being
without food or water, thoy suffered in
tensely, especially during Thursday,
when a hot sun beat down upon them.
A rescuing party found them in
a deplorable condition late in the
evening and brought them into camp.
Tbis was the only Incident. Friday
morning early John Poole, first mate of
the vessel, and five men, were detailed
to go to tbe mainland ior assistance and
get a vessel to take tbe castaways off the
island. The long boat was swung ont
and proviaioned and tbe men pnt ont.
Santa Barbara waa the nearest point on
tbe mainland bnt the current and wind
was against making that point, and the
little boat was headed for Santa Monica
or Port Los Angeles. Tho wind only
held for a few hours and then a heavy
fog set in and the men bad to take to
the oars. For two days and nights they
toiled, pulling the boat over the heavy
swelling waters, stopping at intervals to
rest.
The fog held throughout the trip, and
yesterday morning the almost exhausted
men did not know where they were.
About six o'clock, from out the dense
mass of vapor, came the toot-toot of a
locomotive whistle. It waa a wele-me
sound, and was recognized by Mate
Poole, who got the bearings of long
wharf from the sound. The men bent
to the oars with renewed vigor, and
soon the boat's crew came within hear
ing of the fog siren. To make a landing
wbb tbe next propoaition. A heavy sea
was running at tbe time. And the
danger oi smashing the boat if it
got too close to the wharf was ap
parent, Poole, wbo was ieast exhausted
of the crew took a heaving line and
jumped into the saa, succeeding after a
hard battle in swimming alongside a
vessel tied up at the wharf. He was
hauled on board and willing hands took
the line and brought tbe boat in, the
crew being co exhausted they had to be
assisted ont of the boat.
Chief Officer Poole provided for the
•rew at a house iv Santa Monica canon,
and came on to this city. He at once
. telegraphed John Kosenfeld at San
Francieco, who has the vessel under
charter, of the loss of the vessel, and
then sought rest at the houße of a friend
At 14118 San Fernando atreet.
When eeen by a Herald reporter Mr.
Poole said that the only way in wbich
be could account for the vessel getting
ont of her course was an unusually
strong current setting in towards the
mainland and the dense fog which tbey
carried with them from a short distance
out of San Diego.
Mr. Poo>* also stated tbat tba Crown
of Kngiund had been engaged in tbe
coal trade between NVjaimo, Departure
bay, British Columbia, and San Fran
cisco and Port Lr.a Angelea for a little
over a year. The vessel arrived at Port
Los Angeles abont 10 days ago and after
discharging part of her cargo took the
remainder to San Diego. On last Tues
day morning the vessel left
San Diego i n ballast and
was going nnder a Blow bell at the time
■he struck. The coarse took the vessel
outside the island, and no danger was
apprehended. Henry McGeorge was on
the bridge when the vessel struck. To
nse the words of Chief Officer Poole,
who was below, "the ship was lifted
high by a huge swell and dropped on to
a shelving rock with a crash tbat jarred
her frightfully. All bands wereon tleck
in an inßtant. Captain Hamilton took
charge and had the engines backing at
full speed, hut it was without avail,
each succeeding swell of tbe oc< a i lift
ing the ship and pounding her ou tbe
rbeks."
It was 2 o'clock Wednesday evening
when the ship struck, and the blackneßS
ol the night was made more dense by
the heave fog. Nothing could be done
until daybreak. When light came it
was seen tbat tbe vessel was a hopeless
wreck, and the work of removing things
to tbe shore wae commenced, ft was
not unattended by danger, for every
moment the masts threatened to fall,
and the deck houses were pulling apart.
No accidents happened, however, and
the stores and effects of the men were
taken ashore safely.
Mr. Poole received a dispatch last
evening stating that the tug Kearlosa of
the Spreckles line would leave for the
scene of the wreok last night, In the
meantime Mr. Poole will go to Santa
Barbara, get a tug, and return to the
island where Captain Hamilton and the
remainder of the crew are. It ia prob
able that all of the crew will be sent to
Santa Barbara and tiience to San Fran-
ctsro, where au inquiry into the loss of
the vessel will be held. In explanation
of bow Captain Hamilton got lost on the
island, Mr. Poole says he went in search
of habitations, hut found nothing but
unoccupied sheepberders' hate.
The lost vessel was only four years old
having been built ai Stockton on Tees,
England, in 185)0. She waa of 1000 tone
register, built of iron and belonged to
tbe Crown Steamahip company of Bel
fast. She waa valued at $11)0.000 and
waa inaured in English companies for
$75,000. A little over a year ago Bhe
was chartered by John Rosenfold &
Co.. ol San Francisco, and put in the
coal trade with British Columbia ports.
She carried a crew of 22 men all told.
Her officers were: Captain, James
Hamilton; firat otlicer, John Poole;
eecond officer, Henry McGeorge; chief
engineer, R. Mehappey : first aaeißtant
engineer, D. Dunn; aeeietant engineer,
John Clarke.
An Account From Santa Monica.
Special io the Herald.
Santa Monica, Nov. 11. —The steamer
Crown of England, owned by a Britiab
company under the leaae or chartered to
the Roaenfeld Brothera, of Sau Fran
cieco and Nanaimo, B. C, Capt. James
'lamilton, went ashore on Wednesday
• n the west coast of Santa Ro»a island,
Chief Offioer Poole being in charge at
the time.
The veasel bad been at San Dingo, and
after taking ballast on board left Tues
day morning for Nanaimo, when tbe pi
lot who took them out of the bay told
them be considered it unsafe to go up in
such a fog, but go tbey would. On
Wednesday morning, without any warn
ing, tbey struck on tbe weat coast of tbe
island in two fathoms of water.
A sailor by the name ol Framburgh
immediately swam ashore with a life
line, and the captain and entire crew
followed him in boats. They made a
thorough examination ol the island and
found no human being on it.
On Friday morning Poole and five
men, by name William Jones, Fred
Frambnrgb, Michael McLaughlan, the
bos'n, who was at the wheel when ehe
struck, Emil Pierce, nnd Jack Smith,
the fireman, started in an open boat for
Ihe mainland, leaving C*pt. James
Hamilton and the rest ol the
crew on the ißland. After 4K
honrß on the sea, anrl being unable to
strike any otber point, they lauded at
the oafiOD, Chief Officar Pooie immedi
ately going to Los Angeles to communi
cate with Roaenfeld Broe. The men are
at Dillon'B pavilion in the canon.
When they left tho ialard tbe steamer
had four feet of water in her hold. Her
machinery had shifted and rudder and
sternpoat were gone, otherwise she wbb
resting as easy as could be expected.
The tng Fearless of San Francisco has
been telegraphed for, and is probably
on her road tn assist in pulling the
steamer off, A number of our people
here think it must be the Santa Bar
bara island they struck, but the crew
insist upon it that it ie the Santa Roea
island.

THE BUNCO KING'S REGRET.

I'hlef cf Pnllca la
Coining.
Matt Recce, the Bunco King of the
the Northwest, an recount of whose cap
ture in this city by Detective Goodman
was published exclusively in yesterday's
Ih i: m ii, spent a quiet Sabbath in the
city jail, the officers declining to allow
him to receive visitors. The woman
wbo was with Recce when he was ar
rested, and who now claims to be a sis
ter of tbe bunco king, pleaded tear
lully to be allowed to see him, Bhe
went away much disheartened.
Since- bia arrest it ia understood that
Keece haa turned several "tricks" since
his arrival in this city. He bas not
operated in tbe city, but at the beaches.
How successful he was is not known,
but it is safe to say he made more than
expenses.
Yesterday Chief of Police GlaBS re
ceived a telegraphic copy of the judg
ment against Keece sentencing him to
tlie penitentiary at Walla Walla. Chief
of Police Bolton Rogers of Seattle wired
that he would leave at once to take tbe
bunco artist back.
In case Recce or any of his friends at
tempt to get him liberated by habeas
corpUß, they will run up againat tbe
record of tbe Seattle court, which makes
Reeoe an escaped convict, aud be will
not be able to get away.
Recce is full of regret over bis arrest.
He told Detective fioodman that ii wns
his own fault that be was taken. He
said that Bince Wednesday laet be knew
that he waa being shadowed. "If 1 had
had another day," added the bunco
king, "I would have been on the way to
join Japaneae Tommy in .Mexico."

OCCIDENTAL COLLEGE.
Meeting: of the Two l.ltorary Societies.
Professor Blair Arrlvea.
Last Thursday the two literary soci
eties, which were recently divided, held
tbeir weekly meeting. After a few
words by tbe chairman President E. N.
Condit announced tbat Mrß. M. E. Aver,
the soprano of the Madrigal quartette,
and Mies Addie Murphy, tbs elocution*
iet of the Y. W. C. A., would give a
musicale and entertainment at 2 p. m,
on Thursday, November 16th, in the as
sembly hall of the college. President
Condit specially requested the students
to invite all their friends.
At 3:31) p. tn. Sam Haskins, the cele
brated football coach of Berkeley, ap
peared on tbe field wbore the two teams
of the college were drawn up under tbe
management of the captains, W. A.
Edwards and Homer Harwood.
Saturday morning President Condit
introduced a now arrivai in the way of
a professor—James Blair Newell, of
Stanford university. The student? made
the room ring with the customary yell,
aud called in concert for a Bpeeoh from
the new arrival. He arose and thanked
them for their demonstrations of wel
come He being an enthusiast of ath
letic sports, said he waa with them in
. each and every one ol their games. As
scheduled ou the catalogue, he takes
charge of the classes in English litera
ture, political economy, Latin nnd Ger
man. At a meetini! of the hoard of di
rectors it was decided to increase the

The Prisoner Maintains That He Will

Ths Aliened R»om Robber It Too
Sninrt to be Trapped into Admis
sions by the Kallroad
Detectives.
Yeaterday, when the public learned
through tbe Herald's exclusive ac
count, that "Kid" Thompson, tbe al
leged Roscoe train robber, had arrived
from Arizona and was in the city prison,
a number of people called and wanted to
see him. This was not permitted, how
ever, and the only persons wbo bad ac
cess to tbe now noted prisoner were tbe
railroad detectives.
Tbeir mission was to catechise the
prisoner, with a view doubtless to se
cure come admissions from him. In
tbia, however, co far aB can be learned,
they failed. Thompson has plenty of
denials but no admissions to make.
He iB quick witted and is not the sort
of a mar. to be caught napping. Tbe
fact that he is in jail charged witb a
capital ofTdnee does not appear to bother
the "kid" in the least. As he told De
tective Breckenridge, who brought bim
from Arizona, he does not fearthe mult
of a trial.
It is underatood that the object of the
railroad detectivea in keeping Johnson
and the "kid" in separate prisonß was
not only to prevent them from commu
nicating witb each other, but to allow
them to get nervous with a fear tbat the
other had given something away to the
officers. Thompson will be arraigned in
Justice Bartholomew's court today.
MORE MIRACLES.
Tba Boy Fhenointnon Again at the
l.os Angeles Theater.
The announcement tbat the Boy
Phenomenon will give a free demonstra
tion of his wonderful power to heal
the sick by tbe laying on of bands at
tbe Los Angeleß Theater tomorrow night
has brought renewed hope to many •
Bufferer who cannot afford to pay for
private treatment.
Since tbe previous demonstration
given in this oity so many requests have
been reoeived from prominent people
and from the many aiTlicted ones who
were unable to go upon tbe stage and
be treated, owing to tbe great number
requiring bis services, that Dr. Temple,
wbo iB ever ready to relieve the suffer
ings of the poor, consented to give an
other demonstration for the benefit of
those who are unable to pay for treat
ment.
Tbere will be no charge for admission
or for seats in any part of the theater.
Seats will be provided for the cripples
and those most in need of treatment.
The four demonstrations already given
in this city showed beyond any question
of doubt that this wonderful boy pos
sesses a strange power tbat triumphs
over disease, and he invites everyone
who is interested or skeptical to attend
the demonstration and see for them
selves the miracles that he oan accom
plish by animal magnetism.

through the house. We have marked down a few pieces of
fine moire silks from from $3 to $i.so.|They are blacks.
We have marked down a little lot of ladies' muslin under
wear about one-half to close. You will find on the dress
goods' counter the best bargains yet offered this season in
all-wool goods. A few pieces that have been selling for
$1.50 a yard for 75c. A little lot that have been selling for
$2 a yard now 75c. A little lot of fine plain colors that have
been selling for $1.25 now 75c. Just as staple and
as good as old wheat in the mill. This dress goods
bargain is an unusual oue. The dress goods trade
is almost treble what it was a year ago. The bar
gains are the best ever offered in this house. You
never saw cloaks as cheap as we are now selling them. The
prices are lower. The styles are better. The styles far su
perior when the price is considered than anything yet of
fered in the cloak department. A few special offerings will
be made Monday that will be interesting to cloak buyers.
We are offering decided bargains in fur capes and every
fur cape is new this season. We have cut the profits down
fully one-half. The cloak sales are responding to this new
order of things. If there is a slow seller in the house on ac
count of price the price is reduced to make it sell.
