SHE FOUNDERED IN MID-OCEAN Arrival of the Captain of the American Ship Patrician. He and His Crew Were Picked Up by the British Steamer Fifeshire. Loss of the Missionary Steam Bark entine Dayspring on the New Hebrides- The Oceanic Steamship Company's Ala meda made another record-breaking run during the trip from Sydney to San Fran cisco. The trip between Sydney and Auckland was made in 3 days and 14 hours, or four hours better than the fastest on record. From Auckland to Apia the run was made in 4 days 16 hours, or again four hours better than the record. Be tween Apia and Honolulu the speed was not kept up, as Captain Van Oterendorp did not want to reach the latter port be fore noon. Even as it was she was a day ahead of time. On the run to San Fran cisco the chief did not attempt to push the vessel, but nevertheless she was off the Farallones long before daybreak yester day. The Alameda came in as soon as the fog lifted a little, and at 7 a. m. she was tied up alongside the company's dock. Captain £. R. Sterling was master of the - American ship Patrician, and he is on his way to New York to report the loss of bis ship. The Patrician was on her way from Newcastle, Australia, to Lyttleton, N. Z., when a hurricane was run into. Sail after sail was biown away and the decks were flooded and everything mov able was washed overboard. The mizzen mast snapped off short and carried away half the mainmast. For a short time the foreman stood and the lower topsail on the mainmast held. Then the storm re newed its strength and blew the lower topsail out of the bolt ropes and carried away part of the foremast. The Patrician began to leak and Captain Sterling set the American flag, union down, at the foremast. All the boats were gone, and just when the crew had given up hope the British steamer Fife 'shire hove in sight. The latter lowered a boat and took the crew off in boatloads. Captain Sterling stood by his ship to the laat, and when the boat was ready to take him off the men were afraid to go along side, as the vessel was rapidly sinking. Finally the gallant master jumped into the ocean and a few minutes later was picked up and placed aboard the steamer. Xne Patrician was abandoned on August 28 in iatitude 39.38 south, longitude 158.11 'west, and went down half an hour after the crew was safely aboard the Fifeshire. In speaking about the loss of his ship yes •terday Captain Sterling said it was the heaviest storm ne had ever been through, ;.nd had it not been for the arrival of the steamer every soul on board would have gone down with the ship. .The accompanying sketoh is from a. photograph of an oil painting made by Captain sterling when be arrived in Syd ney, N. S. W. The remains of Kate Field did not ar rive on the AJaire<ia, contrary to expecta tions. Halsted & Co. had their under taking wagon down at the steamer, but it ha.a again to depart empty. • The Alameda brought up 450,000 sover eigns, or aoout $2,160,000, for tne Anglo- Californian and London, Paris and Amer ican banks. The sovereigns will be coined into American double eagles. The little thirteen-ton yawl Spray and her master and owner, Captain Slocum, seem to be gaining a great deal of noto riety in Australia. The boat left New York over a year ago, ana after coasting a^ong the eastern shore went through the Straits oi Magellan, and finally reached 'the southern seas. While lying in the narbor at Apia a photograph of the yawl was taken and a reproduction of it was given in Thk Call two months ago. Cap tain trlocum navigates the yawl alone, and has not even a cat to keep him company. The Alameda brings the news that the yawl is in Australian waters. The Sydney Daily Telegraph says: Henry E. Slater, a messenger at the Works Department, has during the past week been addressing public meetings with reference to the forthcoming visit of Captain Joshua Slo cum of the yawl Spray. In these ad iresses he has made a number of charges against the . captain, alleging that he practiced excessive cruelty upon him in 1883. Sinter's story summarized is that in that year, while au officer under Captain Slocum's command he was put in irons for absolutely no offense. He hays that he was weighted wuh over eighty three pounds of chain and confined in a nar row space, in which he could neither lie nor stand. He says he was imprisoned in this manner for fifty-three d,.y.s and nights, and during the whole period of his incarceraiion received but two ship biscuits and about half apiniof water per diem. He goes on to say that Captuln Slocum was fined $500 at New iork for his cruelty, and the other officers wtre also fined smaller amounts. Slocum admits being fined, but asserts that it was simply a question of discipline that made him put Slater in irons on ooard the Northern Li K ht in 1883. He offered proof to show that Slater and not •he was to blame for the whole affair. Ihe Spray was escorted into Bydney harbor by a fleet of yachts, and Captain blocum was given a royal welcome, .lue British ship Pendeen, from Table Bay for Newcastle, N. 8. W., to load coai for San Francisco, has arrived at Port Louis (Mauritius) dismasted. The chances are that she was cau -ht in a typhoon. The following notice to mariners in re gard to the Willamette River channel to Portland, Or., has been issued by the Board of United States Lighthouse In spectors: Notice is hereby given that the Swan Island bar (lower), three-pile post-li^ht beacon, also the Swan Island bar (upper), single-pile post light beacon, were carried away by the pres ent freshet, and will be replaced as early as jracticable. • This notice affect* the List of Lights and Fog j Signals, Pacific Coast, 1896. page 24, Nos. 1087 and 1089, also the List of Beacons and Buoys, Pacific Coast, 1895, page 50. The return trip of the Sophia Suther land from Alaska must have been a pleas ant one judging from the following testi monial given to the officers and crew and signed by all the passengers: San Francisco, Cal., Nov. 18, 1896. We, the undersigned, passengers on the schooner Sophia Sutherland, just arrived from Kadiak, Alaska, would give tnis as a slight testimonial of our appreciation of courtesies received at the bands of Captain P. C. Wedvig and Mate James Hansen and of the seaman like manner and care with which the vessel was bandied on her twelve days' trip from Kadiak. We hope their voyage through life may be as pleasant as this one has been to us. Captain Schmalz of the schooner Czarina writes to the Lynde & Hough Company that their agent, J. H. Buck bee, died sud denly at Sand Point on October 5. Bnck bee had been to dinner on the Czarina and was talking with Captain Schmalz when he was taken with a pain around his heart and uttering the words. "Oh, my heart," dropped dead. The body will be brought to San Francisco on the Czarina. v The Alameda brings the news |of the f ioss of the Presbyterian missionary; steam brigantine Dayspring. She went ashore on one of the coral reefs oi the New Hebri dies and six of the crew are reported as missing. She was on her way to Santo and in her course were many atolls and reefs, and one of these is supposed to have caused her destruction.

The first vessel they lost was the John Knox ana this mases the third Day spring that has gone on the rocks and become a total loss. These missionary ves sels are built, equipped ami maintained by the Sunday-school children of Aus tralia and New Zealand. The tug Sea Witch reports that eight miles east-southeast of the Farallones site spoke the schooner Orient, hence Novem ber 12 for Coos Bay, with her foremast head, main topmast and foregaff gone. She lost them in a gale a few days ago and was returning to port for repairs. The barkentine Catherine Sudden re ports that she lost her deckload of lumber off the Columbia River. She also carried away her foresail and foretopgallant sail and was compelled to out back for reoa.rs. The schooner Coquelle reports that on November ]6, in latitude 38 deg. 32 mm. north, longitude 124 det'. 55 mm. west, during a southeast gale she had her fore topmast head, jibboom and flying-jib car ried away. The tug Rescue delivered orders to the British ship Lyderhorn to proceed to Royal Roads last night at 7 o'clock about thirty miles southwest of the whistling buoy. The steamer Alice B.'ancbard arrived last night. On Tuesday. November 17, at 2:30 p. it., when about ten miles off Cape Blanco, the captain found her to be fast tilling witn water from a hole ten inches in diameter on the port bow, apparently caused by striking some floating object. Sbe was taken in tow by the steamer Farallon to Port Orford, whence, after making temporary repairs, sbe proceeded on her voyage, still in tow of the Farallon. Her bow was stove in and her machinery disabled. On November 13 and 14, in latitude 47 25 north, longitude 126 09 west, the schooner Maid of Orleans encountered very heavy gales, which carried away the entire deck load of stave bolts, did considerable otiier damage on deck; also spilt the foresail and mainjib and broke the jaws of the main boom. WILD SCENES AT A HOTEL. Jim Neal and Hoiias Ricker F ght, and Jere Mahoney Loses His Gold Bepeater. An exciting fight which attracted a large crowd occurred last night at about 9:30 o'clock at the Baldwin Hotel. The principals were Honas Ricker, a bellboy, and Jim Neal, a horseman. According to Clerk Lake of the hotel, Neal has long been coarse and ins lent in bis language, in the presence of ladies as well &■< men, and for this reason he was put out of the hotel about a mont,h a^'O. Neal conceived that Ricker, the bellboy, was chief cause of his being put out. Last nignt Neal, as Mr. Lake states, came into tlie hotel and put his feet upon one of the handsome chairs. The watchman invited him outride. When he got out side he began to abuse Ricker, whom he saw there. Ricker was plucky and began to rain in blows on the horseman. There was great excitement, and in the midst of it Statesman Jerry Alahoney ap peared. He had not more than got in till some one plucked from his pocket his handsome gold repeater. While inter ested friends separated the combatants the statesman ran helplessly to Chief of Detectives Lees, who was at band, and dis played the end of his chain. The veteran detective detached Detective John Sey mour to try and find the watch and pick pocket. •—• — « — » FIFTH PIANO RECITAL. Mrs. Fannie Bloomfleld-ZeUler's Pro gramme Largely Gleaned From Chopin's Work*. Mrs. Fannie Bloomfield-Zeisler gave her fifth recital last evening. Not much can De added to what has previously been said concerning her playing in a general way. It is true, however, that each succeeding recital develops something new which is worth of consideration, ard the perform ance liibt evening was no excepiion to this rule. The programme was largely of Chopin. The successes of the evening were a pastorale by fccarlatti, Chopin's Mazurka, op. 6, No. 1, and especially his Scherzo, op. 20. Perhaps the final "Ta rantelle, 1 ' by Liszt, may be included in the fortunate list. At all events it exhibited about every variety of toucii possessed by Mrs. Bloomfield-Zeisler, and demonstrated afresh the perfection of ncr technique. The cantabile playing in the Chopin Scherzo was something worth remember ing. The audience was demonstrative, insisting upon irequent recalls. The next recital will be given Sa«nrday at 2 p. m.

Blankets, Sheets and Pillow- Cases Missing From the Institution. Mrs. Stable's Large Tennis-Fianne Account — Nigh'-GowDs and Lounging R bes. Mrs. Mary E. Black, the matron of the City ami County Hospital, came before the Board of Health yesterday afternoon to tell all she knew of the shrouds that should have been used when the pauper dead were laid out for burial. Incidentally she toot occasion to expose some of the secrets of the institution. There were missing seven pairs of blanscts, six pillow-cases and ten sheets, which she said she served out for the use of Dr. Stable's family when they first came to live at the hospital. When the Stables moved into another residence those articles, to her belief, went with them. She did not take an inventory of the things before they went away because she had been ordered not to do so by Mrs. Stahie. "I told Dr. Btahie," said Mrs. Black to Dr. Hart, "that I must go into his rooms and take a list of the City property there. He at first said I might do so. but after consulting his wife he told me that sue would attend to that." "When did you first miss those blan kets, slieets and pillow-cases?" astced Dr. Williamson. "When Mrs. Stahie and her children left the hospital," answered the matron. "Soon after Mrs. Stahie came she got hurt and had to have two more pillows and they were borrowed from the training school. They are gone, too. "My attention was called to the short age in the bed linen during che weekly distribution of the wash. The reason I ! think Dr. Stahie took the articles is that this week I captured the ten sheets among his laundry." "Wuat do you mean by 'captured?' " asked Dr. Fitzgibbons. "I found them among his private linen and knew them by the hospital mark. They came to me by the mistake of the iaundryman." The witness stated in reply to a question that she had been forbidden to go into Dr. Stahle's rooms on any pretext, but just before the family left she found many articles of hospital bed linen lying among ( their baggage. Sbe explained that there was consider able friction between herself and the Biahles, and that it was caused by the very official part taken by the superin tendent's wife. She then stated that Mrs. Stahie would maice demands upon her for muslin, flannel, safety-pins and other articles which she had charge of as ma tron. Mrs. Stahie would use the things thus procured from the hospital supplies for her own use, the witness said. "Are you sure of this?" Dr. Hart asked pointedly. "I saw the cloth cut and made and worn j by members of Mrs. Stuhle'a family." an swered Mrs. Black. "I saw Mrs." Stahie wearing a dress made of tennis flannel whicli she got of me." The witness stated further that some silk was ordered for use in the internes' room and a portion of it was used to make a dress for Dr. Stahie s little girl. Mrs. Black exhibited her books, espe cially the six pages of the accounts de voted to the requirements of Mrs. Stable. They run from October 21, 1896, to April 29. 1896. "Here is an item— -'seventeen yards Can* ton flannel,' said Dr. Hart. "What is that for?" "Night clothes for little Roland Stahie," answered Mrs. Black. "And here is founeen yards tennis flan nel. What is that for?" "A lounging robe for Mrs. Stable. 1 ' "Here is fifteen and half yards tennis flannel. What is that for?" "A lounging robe for Mrs. Stahle's mother, I think." So the long list runs throuch six pages of a large folio account-book — flannel, linen, creton, thread, cotton, needles, pins, etc., all for Mrs. Stahie. On one pa>:e are a number of articles marked, "Taken in my absence and not accounted lor." Mrs. Black stated that somebody had tried to get at her books in her absence, consequently she kept duplicate accounts. She consulted her attorneys for fear she would be accused of taking the missing articles. Sophia Stromberg, one of the chamber maid-, was sworn and gave pretty much the rame tsstimony. Edward Tornalty, the cook, testified re garding the quality of the meat furnished the hospital, and during his testimony stated that the Market Inspector had not been at the hospital for three weeks, though he should visit the institution three times a week. He also said that chickens received at the hospital as a delicacy for the superin tendent s table were charged for as meat for the hospital, a fat, fine broiler being equivalent to thirty-four pounds of beet. The steward had often carried cooked ten derloins to favorite patients, but that was no concern of bis. Dr. Stahie was sworn and denied every item of the accusations made against him by Mrs. Black. Neither he nor his wife had drawn a yard of stuff from the matron's stores. The ten sheets had got into his laundry by mistake and he had sent them to the institution himself. Immediately upon taking charge of the hospital he had given orders that no de ceased patient should be buri»d in a nude condition. A shroud is provided for each body. Thi» shroud is worth about 25 cents. Dr. Hart here ordered that shrouds should be provided for all dead bodies and a partition be made in the hospital morgue for the iemule bodies and that only women be permitted to handle those bodies. Dr. Stahie stated that Mrs. Black was vindictive and angry because she was not permitted to eat at the superintendents' table. The Board of Health took the matter under advisement. CHRISTMAS PASTRY. Bakers Will Not Distribute the Holi- day Cake, but Drivers May l»o as 1 li.y Please. The master bakers met in Tnrn Verein Hall on Turk street yesterday afternoon. Press representatives v.ere excluded. A resolution prohibiting the presenta tion of Christmas cakes to patrons was passed. One baker said, however: "There is nothing to prevent my drivers from making a present to their customers on Chri-tmas day if they so desire. So long as Ido not give it or order it I am free and can say that I nave lived up to the pledge." From the expressions dropped after the meeting it is apparent that on many routes Christmas bakery presents will be given as usual. The question of raising the price of breaa was debated. One member said he was losing $20 a day by the increase in the price of flour. This argument was met by another member who said he was decidedly opposed to forming a trust in bread. It might <io to form a trust in coal oil and steel, but it would be poor D«ilicy to form a bread trust because, if that were at tempted, some big syndicate from Chicago would come out here and mate bread for the people ai such a price that every baker in San Francisco would have to go to the poorhouse. A proposition to reduce the weight of a loaf of bread did not meet with favar. It was the general impression that the action on the "no cake" for Christmas de cision was a sort of feeler to see what the public would thinK about it. Practically the same action was taken in regard to branch bakeries and the return of stale bread. MYSTERY OP THE MORGUE An Unknown Man Kuds His Mfc With Poison in the Park. The body of a well-dressed unknown man lies in tne Morgue, and the Coroner is very desirous of learning who he was. The man took morphine in Golden Gate Park and died in the Receiving Hospital, to which he was removed in an uncon scious condition by the park police. He was found on the ground near the band stand and nearby was an empty mor phine bottle. At the hospital the doctors stated that he must have taken all the vial contained. The man at some time must have been in good circumstances, for he was neat in his general appearance and dress. He was about 40 years of age, 5 feet 6 inches in height, of dark complexion, and weighed about 165 pounds. He had dark hair, slightly gray, and dark mustache. He wore a dark, soft hat, cutaway coat with a very fine blue check, pants and vest of like material, gaiter shoes, white sbirt and collar, and white-ribbed under wear. There was nothing found in his pockets that would lead to his identification. A 25-cent piece, a 1-cent piece, a knife, key and a blank red memorandum-book were all that could be found in his clothes. Kiley Grannan, the Plnnger, Arrives. Kiley Grannan, the celebrated piunger, whose winnings on the different tracks for the past few years have b«?en the tali of the country, arrived here from the East last night and is at the Baldwin. He has corue out to attend ihe winter races in California. FIRE AS AN AID TO SNEAK THIEVES Fire Marshal's Theory of Two Incendiary Fires. While Pec pie Rush Out of Their Houses Thieves Get in Their Work. It Is an Old Eastern Trick and Was Prrcticed Here Two Years Ago in Big Lodging-!! uses. The police have been making every ef fort to capture tbe firebug who has taken a fancy to set tire to vacant flats, but so far without success. Tuesday afternoon he got the key to a vacant flat at 1-27 Harrison street, and a few minutes after he returned the place was discovered to be on fire. The same thing occurred in a vacant flat at 1329 C1ay street, Wednesday afternoon. , In both cases it was found that pieces of wood and paper had been piled up in a closet and set on fire. The flames were extinguished in both flats before much damage was done. The firebug is described as a young man about 5 teet 8 or 9 inches tall, with a Blight mustache, of slender build. He wears a summer suit and has a pleasant way of talking. In applying for the keys he said he wanted to look at the flat, as he might rent it. The police have been puzzled to imagine what could be his motive for setting fire to the flats. It was thought that he might be crazy on fires and did it just to watch the house being consumed, and other theories were advanced. Fire Marshal Towe has a theory which has precedents to back it up. He thinks that the younp. man is a -neaktnief and sets fire to the flats with plunder in view. "It is an old Eastern trick," said the Fire Marshal yesterday, "and has been piayed here before. The firebug is accom panied by some of his confederates, who hover around waiting for developments. When the fire alarm is sounded— very often by himself or one of his confeder ates — women in the neighborhood rush out of their houses, leaving their front doors open. Then the firebug and his confederates sneak into the houses and steal anything of value they can find. "I have not heard whether the residents on Harrison street or Clay street had any thing stolen from their houses, but I am satisfied that was the scheme of the young man in setting fire to the flats. "Two years ago' there were several fires in Dig lodging-houses in the early hours of the morning. Paper and pieces of wood were piled up in a closet in each instance and set on fire. When the alarm was given the lodgers rushed out of their rooms, and the firebug and his confed erates, during the excitement, entered the rooms and stole gold watches, jewelry and anything else they could conveniently carry away without being, discovered. "These fires puzzled us for a time, but when people reported having lost their jewelry I came to the conclusion that some Easterner was playing the trick here, and I think I was correct, because after my suspicions on that peint were given publicity the fires in lodeing-houses stopped. "Last winter we were free from such fires, but now I am afraid the same gang has started in again, and this time they have selected vacant flats and the after noon as the time for setting them on fire, because the male occupants are at their business downtown and only the wives and children, who as a rule like to see a fire, are at home." It is noted that the women of the royal families of Europe are, on the average, much stronger, mentally and physically, than the men.
