RESCUE OF
CLEVELAND
SURVIVORS
Thirteen of the Ship
wrecked Men Gain
the Shore
Picked Up by the Steam
ship Queen After Suf
fering the Torture
of Starvation.
A.LBERNI, B. C, Dec. 19.— Thirteen !
ef - 1 twenty-two missing from the j
steamer Cleveland of San Francisco |
were picked up on Saturday by the
Canadian revenue cutter Quadra.
After frightful privations two of the
crew made a landing on the shore of
Vancouver Island, near Sydney Inlet.
One man bad succumbed to exposure
and starvation before they effected a
landing, and it was necessary to bury j
him at sea. Four survivors are in a j
dangerous condition and suffering j
much pain, and the others are as yet ■
suffering from their injuries. The res
cued men are:
S. B. Durfee, first officer.
Harry Melvin, third officer.
. R. P. O'Neil, first assistant engineer. !
E. Thomas, second assistant engi
neer.
Robert Isbister, carpenter.
Peter Marin, seaman.
Thomas McColl, seaman.
Alfred Faulkner, seaman-
John Harmon, fireman.
David Crawley, fireman.
C. H. Packer, pantryman.
Frank Gerthan, passenger.
William Deitrick, passenger.
The occupants of the second mate's
boat, \vho are still missing, are:
L. F. B. Anderson, first mate.
M. Munroe, steward.
Walter Davis, cook.
W- T. Boykin, assistant cook.
John Foster, seaman.
Bert Larsen, seaman.
A. Kohnig, seaman.
H»ndrik Danielson, seaman.
<-'n arriving ;u Uculet the Quadra,
aboard of which was a Call corre
spondent, found a letter from a Cath
priest at Hesquoit, some forty
J es down the coast, saying that the
y te's boat had landed there and the
i n were all in good condition. The
>■ • ter went at once and picked them
up, and was then informed that that
some Indians had seen a fire
and a boat ,on the shore about fifteen
- away, but could not make a
landing on account of the heavy sea
running-.
The next day (Saturday) the sea sub
•■ cutter .steam*'] over the Ra
phael Point, near which the boat and
fire had beer, seen, and found the first
mate and six of his crew, ail in a most
j.itiabie condition from exposure and
starvation. The men were all taken
aboard, some of them unable to walk,
and were then taken care of in the
best manner possible.
There were no physicians on board
and no adequate remedies, and as
there was fear of blood poisoning the
men were taken to Alberni on Sun
day, the nearest point at which medi
cal aid could be obtained.
The first mate's tale is one of har
rowing privation and intense suffer
ing. At the command of the captain
he took the boats at 3 A. M. on Fri
day, when the vessel was within 100
feet of the reef and when it seemed
impossible to avoid striking it. Jn his
boat besides himself were O'Neil, Ca
roilo, Crawley, Isbister, McCall, Falk
ner and Deitrick, The boat was an
old one and not in very good condition.
For a short time all the boats kept
t..er<-ther until the captain saw a pas
.^.ige and motioned to the others to
follow, but they misunderstood.
The force of the storm was so great
that it was impossible to communicate
by means ofthe voice, and the motions
were inadequate to convey the mean-
They saw the captain attempt
the inlet and then lost sight of him
and supposed the boat had struck and
all had been lost.
The boat in charge of the second
male started east and was soon lost
to sight. The first and third mates
kept together until about 3 in the af
ternoon, when the storm drove them
apart. All through the day the sea

was so rough that it was almost im
possible for him to manage the boat,
and, the boat being old, it soon began
to leak, and two men were kept bail
ing. From Friday morning for four
days and a half they were buffeted
about by the raging sea, unable to do
more than keep the boat away from
the rocks.
They headed to the east, trying to
make the straits, but the southeaster
kept driving them continually west in
spite of all their efforts. They had
on board only a small supply of sea
biscuits, a few pieces of meat and a
little water, ana were obliged to hus
band their provisions very carefully,
eating only one sea biscuit and a piece
of meat a day and drinking very little
water.
In spite of all precautions the meat
and water gave out on the third day,
and for twenty-four hours they were
forced to get along without water.
On Sunday night one of the men,
George Carrollo. became unfit for
work and was laid down on a coil of
rope in the bottom of the boat, which
was so full of Water that although
he was propped up as well as possible
he was soaked with water up to the
chest.
He grew rapidly worse toward the
morning, going mad before he died.
The body was wrapped with a sail,
but in the afternoon, as he interfered
with the working of the bo;:t and im
periled the lives of the living occu
pants, it was found necessary to bury
him at sea.
On Wednesday the sea calmed, and,
after nearly five days of unspeakable
hardships, living in an open boat ex*
posed to the elements, their feet and
lees pickled in sea water, starving and
without water, they ?anded on a de
serted strip of coast on Rafael Point,
near Sidney Inlet. Near by were seen
some Indian shacks, r>ut upon investi
gation they were found to be aban
doned by all but a dog. Even after
landing their position was not mate
rially improved, as they could receive
no medical attendance, which they im
peratively needed, and the food supply
was only Increased by the mussels
which they could collect on the neigh
boring roi ks. For three days, up to
the time of their rescue by the cutter,
they lived on this meager fare.
Friday morning they saw the cut
ter pass on its way to Uculet, but
could not attract attention. The mate
gavf up hope of rescue and set to
work to repair his leaky boat to set
out again in search of a more hospit
able shore, and was working at the
time the cutter came and relieved
them.
The third mate had a most bitter
experience. He lost the first mate's
boat in what he describes as the heav
iest storm he ever encountered, the
seas running fifty feet in the open.
Having neither compass nor chart, he
kept as close to shore as possible and
still kept off the rocks. They pulled
for thirty-one hours without stopping,
and finally, after many extremely
narrow escapes from being wrecked
on sunken reefs they sighted at 11:30
Saturday morning a sand beach near
Hesquoit and made for it.
Some Indians on shore were anxi
ously watching the approach of the
boat, and, seeing it attempt a place
known to them to be dangerous, they
frantically motioned the crewalongthe
shore to a sheltered place and stood by
all the time with their canoes to effect
a rescue in case the boat was capsized
by the breakers.
Although the third mate made a
much quicker landintr than the first
mate, it was just in time, as three of
hi." men were badly crippled and with
the remainderof hismen [t would have
been impossible to have manned the
boat any longer.
A Catholic priest at Hesquoit, whose
name at present cannot be ascertained,
took all the men to his house and led
■them and housed them, while the In
dians dried their clothes and did every
thing in their power to make them
comfortable, in marked contrast to
the actions of those Indians who loot-
THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1897.
Ed the ship from which these men
ame.
These Indians Were so strictly honest
that they even returned a ring which
had dropped from the third mate, and
which he had given up for lost some
time before.
On Thursday the Indians saw a
fire on a neighboring island, and
thinking that it might be one of the
other boats' crews, they launched
their frail canoes, although the sea
was still extremely rough, and pad
dled across ten miles. On arriving
they found some white miners who
used the Indians very roughly, al
though they explained that they had
oome in search of shipwrecked sea
men.
The priest sent a letter to Uculet,
announcing the rescue of the third
mate and his crew, which reached
Captain Walbran on his arrival there
Friday. The Indians delivered the
letter to Uculet for the priest at Ra
fael Point, but dared not land on ac
count of the surf.
On their return to the priest they
informed him of their discovery, and
on Saturday afternoon, after they had
picked up the third mate and his crew,
he went in to Rafael Point and rescued
the first mate and survivors. The
able bodied men were taken to the
wreck to assist the captain in the
work of saving the vessel, and all the
disabled are on board the Quadra and
will be taken to the hospital at Vic
toria as soon as possible, probably on
Tuesday.
Search is being made for the goods
stolen from the ship by Indians. At
every village large quantities are
found. At present ten arrests have
been made — nine Indians and one
white man. Court will be held on
board the Quadra on Monday and
those convicted will be taken to Vic
toria.
Diver McHardy went down and ex
amined the hull of the vessel Satur
day, and but one hole was found.
However, the vessel is resting on a
large rock that made it impossible to
examine the entire bottom, but an
other search will be made, and as soon
as a vessel comes from Victoria act
ive work will begin. There 1b no
doubt that if no further Heavy
weather comes up the vessel can be
saved.
.Practically all hope for the second
mate and his crew is given up. No re
port or rumor has been heard from
!hem, and the box of sea biscuit and
the pillow which floated into Uculet
must have come from this boat, as
none of the other boats lost anything.
The sick men are: Robert Isbester.
Fred Falkner, David Huwley, Robert
Deitrich and John Coster, all suffer
ing from the effects of the sea water
on the feet, except Coster, who has a
sprained knee. Mate Durfee and Peter
Marin are also suffering from their
exposure, but not severely. The men
seen) to be improving, and. as soon as
they are placed in the hospital at Vic
toria, will probably recover.
WAS RATCHFORD
THROWN DOWN?
Talk Caused by His Defeat for
Fraternal Delegate to
England.
It May Be Shown That Unfair Rul
ings in the Count Were
the Cause.
Special Dispatch to The Call.
NASHVILLE, Term., Dec 19.—To
morrow's session, many delegates' say,
will bring to a close the work of the
Federation of Labor Convention, while
Othen insist that two d;iys will be re
quired to complete the consideration
of all important matters. The defeat
of M. D. Ratchford, president of the
United Mine Workers, for the position
of fraternal delegate to England has
caused a great deal of talk, and the
departure of Mr. Ratchford and his
colleague L. Lewis, on the early train
this morning grave emphasis to some
of the rumors. It is intimated by some
that Mr. Ratchford was "thrown
down" in the balloting, and some of
his friends claim that the rulings up
on the different ballots and the deci
sion as to the number of votes requir
ed to elect were against him. Some of
Mr. Ratchford's friends have been
very severe in their criticisms of the
president's rulings, but there seems to
be no disposition to bring the matter
before the convention, though if any
opportunity is offered to get in a blow
against the rulings complained of it
will probably be taken advantage of.
Mr. Ratchford himself, If he feels as
his friends say they do, did not show
it, but to all appearances left in the
best of humor. Before leaving he said
the convention had done some impor
tant work, especially in forwarding
the eight hour movement, and the ac
tion taken in regard to the restriction
of immigration along the lines of an
educational test. Both movements.
I he claimed, were closely related, and
: with both secured the supply of labor
j will diminish and hotter wages follow.
CUTTER CORWIN ALSO
TO BE SENT NORTH
Will Supplement the Bear's
Work in Relieving the
Whalers.
Captain Shoemaker Realizes the Im

Expedition:
Special Dispatch to The Call.
NEW YORK, Dec. 19.— A Washing
ton special to the Herald says: It is
proposed by the Treasury Department
to supplement the relief work of the
revenue cutter Bear among the dis
tressed whalers in the North Pacific by
dispatching the revenue cutter .Corwin
to her assistance in the early spring.
It is not intended to place many sup
. plies on the Corwin. . Captain Shoe
maker, chief of the revenue cutter
service, says the Bear is supplied with
sufficient food to relieve all whalers
who may be in distress. It is not be
lieved the Corwin will have much dif
ficulty in finding the Bear, though the
latter cutter will probably be pretty
far into the ice, and the two may have
trouble in combining their efforts.
Captain Shoemaker, in his annual
report, will refer to the mission of the
Bear as the greatest relief expedition
ever undertaken. He will . say it is a
most perilous and dangerous under
taking, begun in the depths of winter

YARN ALMOST INCREDIBLE
But the Muscovite Holds Port Arthur
and His Hand Is at China's
Throat.
Special Dispatch to The Call.
LiQNDON, Dec. 19.— Telegrams from
all the Continental capitals show that
Russia's steD at Port Arthur is re
garded as tantamount to a permanent
occupation and a reply to Germany's
action. A well-informed St. Peters
burg correspondent says there was no
agreement between Russia and Ger
many, and the latter simply warned
Russia when the occupation of Kiao-
Chau was already decided upon.
The Novoe Vremya pretends that
Japan has no cause for complaint.
Since China is only giving the same
shelter to Russian ships as Japan had
hitherto so kindly afforded."
This view is not held in Berlin,
where the papers are already talking
of the possibility of Prince Henry hav
ing to shake his mailed fist at Japan,
'hut is supposed to be so secretly
backed up by England. Some of the
Berlin papers express anxiety, but
most of them welcome the news from
Port Arthur as justifying the German
position at Kiao-('hau, if not as actual
evidence that Russia and Germany are
-ii tins together.
Curiously enough Emperor Wiliam
visited the Russian Embassador on
Friday night on his return from Kiel.
ostensibly to congratulate him on tho
name day "t" Emperor Nicholas. The
visit lasted one hour. Thoro is no
doubt that the Emperor and Em
bassador discuraed Chinese affairs.
The Paris papers, without pretending
to be deceived by Russia's innocent ex
planation, are pleased with the action
of the ally of France.
The burden of Viennese coment is
what will England do? The British
fleet now in Chinese waters consists of
one ironclad, nine cruisers and eigh
teen smaller men of war.
The correspondent of the Times at
Peking says: China approves of the
Russian fleet watering at Port Arthur,
being persuaded that this action is
taken in the interest of China and; ne
(•• ssitated by the German occupation
of Kiao-Chau.
A dispatch to the Times from
Sh;Hie:h;»i says the occupation of Port
Arthur b\ Russia cannot fail to pro
voke popular indignation in Japan,
where public opinion is already excit
ed over the Kiaochau affair.
According to the dispatch to the
Daily Mail from Shanghai the high of
ficials of the Chinese court have ad
vised the Emperor, in view of further
complications, to remove the court to
Xanking. the southern capital. The
dispatch says it is reported there th;u
overtures have been made to England
to exercise protection over the Yang
tse Valley, and the West River, and
that numerous rumors are current re
garding the activity of the British
squadron in Chinese waters.
The Times, commenting editorially
this morning on the situation in Chi
na, says: 'Instead of the Kaiser's
mailed fist, we have Russia's velvet
glove; but the grasp is not less vigor
ous and unyielding. Great Britain
ought now courteously to invite China
to extend the same privileges to the
British fleet at Chausan."
CREDITS THE KAISER
WITH WILD PROJECTS.
Wild Story About a Piratical Raid in the
Pacific Against the United
States.
BOSTON, Dec. 19.— Private cipher
cable dispatches just received here by
a prominent local German - American
of German capitalists, whose name
must be withheld for the most obvi
niis reasons, disclose a most surpris
ing and alarming turn in European
affairs.
Germany has actually taken the
first step toward war with the United
States. Her mysterious fleet, under
commajid of Prince Henry, is even
now on its way to threaten American
teritory instead of being bound to the
new Chinese possessions as the world
has been led to understand.
This Boston merchant is warned
and instructed to close out at once
all of the heavy holdings of the prom
inent German capitalists who have in
vested their funds in American enter
prises. In their cable they state spe
cifically that those in the inner Im
perial circles are confident that Henry
goes against the United States.
The supremacy of the Pacific is the
first object of this bold scheme of the
rash German Emperor. With the
largest fleet which Germany has ever
sent into these waters, William es
says to seize Hawaii and Samoa as
the first steps in his bold plan for his
new 'dominion.
But it is not the acquisition of these
islands themselves that primarily
moves William in this project. With
a fleet far superior to that of the
United States in these waters, and a
flagship which outclasses any Amer
ican ship in the Pacific, the young
Kaiser imagines .that he holds the
fate of America in the palm of his
hand, and that the gr.eat commercial
interests of this country will be at his
mercy. It is believed that one of his
first efforts in the line of overt acts
against the United States would be an
attack at one of the richest and most
vulnerable points. This is no less a
place than the route to the Yukon
gold fields. It is confidently whispered
in the inner diplomatic circles of Ger
many that the Kaiser realizes that
this is the chance for him to step in
and retrieve his falling finances and
find the wherewithal to enlarge and
strengthen his navy in accordance
with his pet ideas for the Increase and
aggrandizement of his dominion.
It is a most significant fact, the ad
rices say, that this disclosure should
come soon after the recent affair at
Hayti. Diplomats at Berlin say that
the Haytian affair was undertaken by
William for the sole purpose of testing
the policy of the United States in such
a case and that the Emperor is con
gratulating himself that the result is
a sufficient indication of the weakness
of the United Statesand complete evi
dence that the American Government
would be very slow to take any more
decided position in the cases of Hawaii
and Samoa.
The ultimate object of William's
scheme, provided he can escape actual
war and be successful in his prelimi
nary advances, it is understood in Ber
lin, is the collection of an immense in
demnity which after Japan's experience
ience, would be spent on the navy, re
leasing the Empire from that expense
and thus accomplishing the Emperor's
pet object without recourse to the
Reichstag, which is obstinately oppos
ing an appropriation sufficiently large
for this purpose.
If a coalition is made with Spain it
is understood that the Kaiser contem
plates combined operations between
Spain and Germany in the Atlantic,
.with headquarters at Cuba, threaten
ing the large cities and seaports on
the American coast from New Or
leans to Boston, including Washing
ton, Philadelphia, Baltimore and New
York. William realizes that the
Americans are utterly unable to re
sist naval bombardment at these
ports, because of weak and practical
ly useless fortifications. The advices
say that it is understood that the
Kaiser counts upon the intervention
of the European concert to prevent an
expensive prolongation of war, thus
saving him after his first overt at
tacks from any embarrassing posi
tion when the United States should be
able to meet him with superior forces
as they could, of course, do after
gaining sufficient time. In case of
this intervention, after he had suc
ceeded in obtaining any considerable
victories, he would expect sufficient
indemnity to satisfy his ambitions.
While the Conservatives do not
think that William will go so far as to
become embroiled in actual warfare
with the United States, they have no
doubt whatever but that he wil seize
Hawaii and Samoa and make other
attempts in the Pacific.
The cable advices hint vaguely at
the formation of a definite movement
of considerable strength among a
class of influential Germans which
may ultimately result in the Govern
ment interfering with the wild designs
of the would-be conqueror. The
greatest secrecy is maintained in re
gard to this opposition movement, as
there is considerable fear of the possi
bility of serious consequences in case
the matter should be brought to the
attention of Emperor William before
it has reached its. consummation.
WASHINGTON SCOUTS
THE ENTIRE STORY.
Germany Has No Interest in Hawaii, and
McKinley Will Hold Samoa.
NEW YORK. Dec. 19.— The Wash
ington correspondent of the Herald
sends the following: The policy which
Cermany is pursuing in the Pacific
is a matter of much speculation in
Washington. It is generally believed
that the Emperor simply has been in
fluenced by a desire to secure the pas
sage by the Reichstag of a bill to in
crease the German navy. I was told
at the Navy Department yesterday
that Germany is expending $9,000,000
during the year 1897-98 fojf vessels un
■!--r construction. One battle-ship
;md two gunboats have been author
ized, but work has not been com
menced upon them. The vessels un
under construction include two first
class battle-ships, one armored eruls
■•!•. five protected cruisers, one torpe
do-boat destroyer and eight torpedo
l>oats.
The report that Germany proposes
to seize Hawaii and Samoa is regard
ed as ridiculous by administration
officials. Germany has little interest
as compared to other nations in the
Hawaiian Islands. It is admitted that
her interests in Samoa are large. The
last administration was willing to de
nounce the treaty of June 14, 18Si*. be
tween the United States, Great Britain
and Germany, Mr. Olney informing
the German Embassador here that th.?
treaty was unsatisfactory to the
I'nited States, and one which its in
terests required to be essentially
modified or altogether abrogated.
President McKinley proposes that
the United States shall retain its grip
->n Samoa, and will agree to no prop
< i 'tion which contemplates the turn
ing over of the share of this Govern
ment in Samoa to either Germany or
(Jreat Britain.
Minister Wu Ting Fang, diplomatic
representative of the Chinese Govern
ment in this country, expressed the
belief to-day that the reported occu
pancy of Port Arthur by a Russian
squadron would prove to be but a
temporary convenience to the Czar's
fleet granted by the Peking Govern
ment. He said the Russian squadron
in Asiatic waters was granted permis
sion last year to winter at Kiao Chou.
and Russian ships remained there
during the winter, but as soon as the
warm weather set in they resumed
their maneuvers in the Pacific Ocean.
For the convenience of Russian offi
cers the Chinese Government sent in
terpreters to Kiao Chou and made
every effort to make them comfortable.
In view of the German occupancy of
Kiao Chou it was impossible to per
mit Russian ships to return to that
port, and the Minister therefore be
lieves that the Russian admiral asked
and received permission to winter his
ships at Port Arthur. It is impossible
for Russian vessels to anchor at Vlad
ivostok during te winter owinj? to
ice.
The Minister also stated that It was
his opinion the Germans would event
ually withdraw from Kiao Chou. So
far as is known in Washington there
is no intention on the part of the Chi
nese Government to seek the exercise
of the good offices of this Government
with a view to securing the withdraw
al of Germany. Minister "Wu is ex
tremely anxious that American inter
ests shall be extended in China. Two
or three American syndicates are now
seeking concessions in the Celestial
kingdom, but he is desirous that more
shall reach out for Chinese trade, and
thus promote commercial relations be
tween the Pekin and Washington Gov
ernments. The United States, he says,
has no ulterior motives with reference
to t the empire. It does not want Chi
nese territory, and the development of
its interests in the Celestial kingdom
would naturally increase and strength
en the concern of this Government in
the welfare of its Asiatic friends.
1 understand that the Minister is
considering the advisability of sug
gesting to his Government that the
President be asked to authorize the
employment by the Chinese of army
and navy officers of the United States
to train the army and navy of China
At present English officers are em
ployed for the navy" and German offi
cers for the army, but the Govern
ments which these gentlemen repre
sent are both grasping for Chinese ter
ritory.
