LOS ANGELES, FRIDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 14, 1894-
BUFFETED BY BILLOWS.
Tillamook Lighthouse Badly
Battered.
Terrible Force of Sunday's
Hurricane.
Huge Boulders Tossed About by the
Angry Waves.
Billows a Hundred F-»« Ht E h—The
Light Tenders' Awful Experience.
Th* Ship India's Perilous
Voysgs,
By the Associated Press.
Astoria, Or., Deo. 13.—TW,« Utrhlhnnse
tender Columbine returned at 6 o'clock
thia evening from Tillamook rock, hav
ing left for that place at daylight thie
morning to investigate the reported
damage to the light from Sunday's hur
ricane. The sea was too rough to get
within speaking distance of the rock,
and it waa fonnd impossible to land any
one by means of the derrick and basket.
The Columbine went around the rock
aeveral times and could easily see that
considerable damage bad been done.
Tbe aharp top ef the smaller rock at the
south of the main rock on which tbe
lightbonae stands is gone, and varioua
other places show bnge boulders bave
been torn off by the force of the storm.
Chief Keeper Pesaonen signalled that
tbey were all well, and that be would
eend his report off in a bottle attached
to a buoy. This he did, and it waa soon
(licked up by the waiting steamer.
An Associated Press reporter was
shown the statement by Lieutenant
Bliah tbia evening, npon the arrival of
the Columbine, and from it contents is
learned tbe full horror of the awful
storm on the isolated rock and tbe
danger tbe men were subjected to.
Between 11 a. m. and 6 p m. on Sun
day last tbe worst hurricane ever expe
rienced on tbe coast raged aronnd the
ligbtbonee. Great mountains of water
rolled in from the southwest and, break
ing against tbe baee of the rock, would
run up its steep aide and speed their force
on the building, which trembled and
rocked as iB if ready to tumble into tbe
raging sea. By nuon the storm waa on
in all ita fury, and the eeaa rolled high
er and higher. A great craeh of glass
shortly after noon told ot tbe damage
caused by the waves, and fragments of
rocks that had been torn loose from the
main rock were hurled against the outer
glass that protects tbe Costly lenses.
An examination showed that the
panes were all broken, the lensea
ruined and tbe clock machinery tbat re
volves the light ao badly damaged as to
render it useless. The force of the wind
and waves nan be judged when it ia
known that the lights broken are 136
feet above high water. A monster rock,
weighing perhaps a ton, was hurled up
wards by the waves nearly a hundred
feet, and coming down crashed through
the roof of the hall and kitchen. The
range was ruined, and every movable
article in the kitchen waa waahed away.
At one time there wae aix feet of
water in the eiren room and four feet in
the living rooms. Time roome are 88
feet above high water. Nearly every
thing in tbe way of edibles, except the
canned gooda, waa ruined. Tbe cistern
pump was rendered nsele>, so much
salt water entered the tanks that tne
freeb water was made brackish, though
not unfit for uae.
Tbe report states that the men are all
well and bave plenty of canned goods to
last another week. Ordinary lanterns
are bung in the tower and will be used
until the damage can be repaired. The
Columbine will go down again tomorrow
and make an effort to reach the men
with supplies. There are four men on
the rock.
THE STORM AT SEA
Terrible Sj parlance of the Ship India.
Many Veasala Missing-.
San Francisco, Dec. 13. —The ship
India arrived in port today and relieved
many anxioas minds concerning her
safety. She was heavily loaded with
coal when she left Nanaimo, 10 days
ago, and when shipmasters who were
lucky enough to reach port told of the
awful gales that were blowing ont at
sea. there was some apprehension felt
for the India. She was sighted far off
the land early this morning and about
noon she was beaded ior the Golden
Gate in tow.
Great holes yawned in her bulwarks
and her rigging was tangled. Hopes,
sails and fittings lay about the decks in
a confused snarl, and tbe orew were
hardly able to make the tug's baweer
fast when ths ship was taken in tow.
Captain Merriman says he does not
know how they managed to weather tbe
storm, and bis presence in port today
be claimed was entirely dne to the heroic
work of the craw. For 11 days they
stood continuously at tbeir posts and
never flinched.
The Bbip was off Cape Blanco when
the gale first struck her. Tbat was on
December let, and the long battle com
menced. Sea after sea broke over her
as she rolled in the huge billows; seams
opened in her bnll and water spurted
into her bold in many places. The
pumps were worked by a donkey engine
and they served to keep tbe bold clear
for a day or two, but dnring a particu
larly heavy blow a wave that broke on
deck smashed in tbe doors of the engine
room and the fires under the boilers
were extinguished. From tbat on the
men v/ere compelled to work the pumps
to keep tbe ship from sinking. The
decks were occasionally waiet deep with
water, and tbe men were compelled to
lash themselves in place to keep from
being waßhed -overboard witb every roll
of the ebip.
For six days the ship weathered gale
after gale successfully, witb tbe excep
tion of losing a few sails, bnt on the
seventh tbe wind Beemed to have joised
forces with all tbe gales of tbe preceding
six days, determined on destroying the
ship. The seas, too, rose and washed
the ebip about more dangerously than
before. She rolled (rightfully, and Cap
taim Merriman aaid the old collier actu
ally dipped ber yarda in tbe aea. In
tbe blow, aail after aail was torn ont of
the holt ropea, and before new ones
could be bent sbe was in the trough of
tbe sea, thrown almost on ber beam
ends by the gale. Her cargo ahifted to
starboard, giving ber a heavy Hat. She
lay almoat on her aide, with the star
board under water and the eeaa rolling
over her.
The men were called from tbo pumps,
and, headed by the captain, every man
on board, with tbe exception of one at
the wheel, want below to trim cargo,
and for over 50 hours they stayed below,
and at last succeeded in righting tbe
ship. In the meantime the galley had
been waehed clean, and it was a day
after tbe ship was put on an even keel
that anything conld be cooked. Tbe
men were faint for want of food, but
tbey kept at tbeir work and the ship
arrived in port without further miabapa.
While the abip was in ber greatest
peril, tbe schooner General Banning,
bound from Gray'a harbor for thia port,
waa sighted and ahe wae aaked to etand
by until tbe danger waa paat, but ahe
had all ahe could do to take care of her
sell, and a few honra afterward ahe waa
out of eight.
Tbe laet three daya of the trip were
pleasant, but when ahe waa towed in
ahe had about four feet of water in her
hold.
The steamer Willamette came in from
the sound with a cargo of coal. Sbe
was nearly three days overdue, and ac
counts for the delay by tbe atorm. Off
Cape Blanco she waa hove to for 17
hours, and her captain reports thestorm
the most aevere of auy he haa experi
enced on tbe coast.
The steamer Walla Walla oame in
early thia morning from Puget sound
porta nearly a day behind time.
Great anxiety ia being felt for the
aafety of the steamer Moutserratt, which
was today three days overdue from Na
naimo. Captain Morriman eaya tbat if
ahe got in the aame gale as the Indio ebe
will never reach thia port, aa ahe waa
heavily loaded.
News of the arrival of tbe ships Stjorn
and Glen Luis at Portland is being im
patiently waited for by the local agents.
Both vessels left in advance of the
Scottish Dalee, which was towed into
Port Townaend yeaterday in a disabled
condition. It ia thought the otber ves
sels encountered tbe came gale, and aa
tbey weie in ballast it ia thought that
they have had a rough experience.
A Wreck-Sirewn Comnt.
Port Townsknd, Dec. 13. —A lumber
laden vessel ia believed to have been
wrecked.on the coast below Cape Flat
tery. Charles W'illoughby arrived from
the Ozette river today and reporta the
coast lor milea Btrewn witb Iresb lum
ber. A badly battered maiu hatch
drifted ashore and aiso a large amount
of heavy beam timber. Nothing could
ba learned relative to the identity of the
veeeel.

tences of Several Convicts.
Sacramento, Dec. 13.—Governor Mark
bam today Bigued the papers commuting
the sentence of six convicts in Folaom
and pardoning one prisoner out of tbe
house oi correction.
Tbe sentence oi Simon Raton, who
was cent up for life in February, 1885,

tbe governor ordered out the gatling
gun.
August Zimmerman, who was cent op
from Amador county for life for murder
in the first degree, will be a free man
on the 15th of next January. What led
to tbis action was an affidavit filed by
an attorney in this city, setting forth
that subsequent to tbe trial of Zimmer
man he hau defended the principal wit
ness against Zimmerman, and that he
told bim tbat his testimony in that
trial was perjured. The witness has
since died and the attorney made baete
to make known tbe facta.

ty of 1206 over Eatee, out of a total vote
of 284,547. For lieutenant-governor, Mil

CONTEST PROCEEDINGS.
San Francisco, Dec. 13.—The ball of
the state supreme court waa orowded
this morning wnen tbe gnbernatorial
election conteat case came on for bear
ing. Ex-Jnstice Van R. Pattoraon and
Joseph NougeßS appeared as the princ
ipal attorneys for tbe board of election
commissioners, defendants, though in
reality they represent the intereate of
Budd. George A. Knight and aeveral
other lawyers appeared on behalf of tbe
petitioner, Chairman Cornwall of tho
Republican state central committee.
Chief Justice Beatty and Justicea Ds
Haven, Harrison, Van Fleet, Garroutte
and McFarland were on the bench ;
Justice tiizgeiald having been a candi
date, making him interested in the de.
cieion to be rendered, did not sit.
Counsel for Cornwall or Estee at
tempted to secure a delay ol proceed
inas but were unsuccessful.
Attorney Patteraon. on behalf of the
defendants, opened the argument. Ha
confined himself exclusively to tbe legal
question involved, as to whether tbe
petition alleged facts sufficient to war
rant the issuance of a citation to
the board of election commiaaioners
to corns before the court and
defend their official acts. He argued
that the petitioner, Cornwall, was not
the real party in .nterest. ao the statute
requires tbat an ac ion of this kind mnst
be brought by the party who is injured.
Cornwall, be declared, cnuid not be in
jured by tbe election ol Budd. He de
clared, too, that the petition asked the
court to do indirectly what it could not
do directly, that ia, hear a conteat over
Ihe election of governor which can only
be heard by the legislature.
Ex-Judge Daly of Ventura, argning
for tbe petitioner, insisted that all that
was Bought by the writ of mandate was
to compel the board of election commia
aioners to oanvitßs tboae returns wbich
were in prope legal form, and to compel
the precinct election ofhcerß to fulfill
their legal duties and mate proper re
turns.
Interrupting him, Justice DsHaven
said: 'The question, as 1 understand it,
ie whether there wore legal returns to
canvass aud what returns were legal."
Having been straightened ont on thia
point, Daly declared tbat the election
commissioners could not canvass any
returns not authenticated as the law
requires, and tbat their efforta to correct
such returns by citing election officers
to appear and complete tbeir work was
not according to law.
Daly aaked that the eleolion commis
sioners be instrncted to canvass the re
turns properly authenticated, and that
the court direct them what conree to
follow with returns not properly authen
ticated.
A deciaion of tbe Illinois enpreme
court waa read, in which it was held
lhat where eleotion returns bad not bean
signed through ignoranoe on inadvert
ence, the election officers might amend
the returns by signing the certificates
any time before tbe vote had been
canvassed. The petitioners refused to
concede that this was the law, but Chief
Jnstice Beatty intimated tbat such would
be considered good law.
Long and tedioua arguments tben fol
lowed, and a motion to dismiss tbe pe
tition was made. Jnaticea De Haven
and Garroutte eaid that if tbe returns
had not been properly certified to be
fore the canvass of the votes was fin
ished, they were willing to grant tbe
motion now.
The decision of the court was re
served, however, until 10 o'clock tomor
row morning. It is tha general belief
tbat the court will refuse to iaaue the
citation petitioned for.

THE NEW CHINESE TREATY.

San Francisco, Deo. 13.— Ex-United

tbat tbe new treaty witb China will undo
all the benefite we bave derived from

treaty permits bim to return if he has a
wife, ohild or parent in the United
States, or property here valued at $1000.
Chinese testimony alone will eatabliah
thie, and Garter, as well aa Collector of
the Port Wise, believes that the oppor
tunities for tbe fraudulent entry of Chi
nese are increased under tbe conditions
of the new treaty.
