Sea Prince Says That He Warned Greystone .'Castle' Against Danger \u25a0 s - •, V \u25a0 '• \u25a0 '• * \u25a0'•* That the tug Sea Prince was sent to the. bottom of the bay, with four mem bers of Its crew, when it was run. into by the steamship Greystoke Castle Fri day afternoon, either as the result of great negligence on the part of those in charge of the big British steamer or through a deadly : "tide rip" which whirls off Point Blunt, on Angel Island. was developed at the investigation, of the disaster before Steamboat In spectors. Bulger and Bolles yesterday. Captain L. L. J^angren, sole survivor of the crew of the tug, was the first witness called, and' told of his escape by clinging to a*piece of wreckage un til picked up by a small boat sent from the steamer ' General Frlsbie,. He blamed the steamer for the disaster, saying that he warned the steamer's captain, when the two vessels left Port Costa, with the Sea Prince towing the Greystoke Castle. that the latter should not approach within a thousand feet. The steamer, he said, must have increased its speed without " warning and without keeping a lookout" for his tug. CAPTAIX REFUSES TO TESTIFY The inspectors called upon Captain W. G. Smith of the Greystoke Castle to tell his version of .the collision, but the latter refused, under advice of his attorney Nathan Frank. The matter will be turned over to the United States attorney and Smith may be summoned into the United States cir cuit court to show cause why he should not testify or be punished for con-, tempt. Captain Isaac Smith of the govern ment steamer Slocum told of seeing the Sea Prince leading the steamer by be tween 300 and 400 feet, when sud denly the distance lessened and the tug could be seen directly under the bow of the Greystoke Castle, though the collision could not be seen from the deck of the Slocum, which was 1,000 feet away. DANGEROUS "TIDE RIP" Captain Isaac Smith and Captain John H. Cunningham of the steamer Monticello, which was but 300 feet from the collision, testified that there was a dangerous "tide rip." or eddy,., off Point BJunt. formed by the Junction of the tide from San Pablo bay with that of San Francisco bay, and that It was possible the progress of the tug was checked by running into this eddy, which would account for the disaster. Captain Cunningham gave the most damaging- testimony against the Grey stoke Castle. He said that when the Monticello left Angel Island it seemed to keep even with the Greystoke Cas tle, but the latter suddenly began going ahead at a much more rapid rate. Cunningham did not believe that the "tide rip" was sufficiently strong to throw the tug against the bow of the steamer. He said that he first saw the tug about 400 feet ahead of the steamer, but a moment or two later the distance had narrowed to 50 feet, and then, al most, the crash came. JThe tug was hurled clear over and sank stern first. There was no warning whistle from any vessel to intimate to the tug that it was in danger. ,The Inspectors will render their de cision in a few days. GREYSTOKE CASTL.E LIBELED . The owners of the Sea Prince, the Shipowners' and Merchants' tugboat company, libeled the steamer Greystoke Castle yesterday in the United States district court, claiming $25,000 for the loss of their boat. They also demand 52,000 for attempts to be made to raise the sunken tug. The British steamer does not appear to have been fortunate on its trip from England, as a libel was filed against It yesterday by W. & J. Sloane for $304 damages, alleged to have been done to a shipment of lin oleum. TEACHERS TO HEAR A LECTURER ON NATURE It Is Expected Twelve Hundred Will Listen to Talk '.% Superintendent Roncovierl announced to the board of education, yesterday that on next Monday .evening Prof. C.

I Why, they ask; dispose a group of uninspired, relatives about atabie | - already heavy with turkey and plum pudding? ; Why not, if they must I be dined, feed relatives' : on lighter.things? .Why feed them at all?.

Which, distinctly/are the views of misanthropes, sweeping and unjust to a number of people, who can't help being relatives, any more than they can help having them. Cynics themselves are somebody's relatives. There is no sense, however, in evading the truth'about them in a general way. They dp belong to a race of. outlanders, some suburban, others intel lectual, and the attempt to mix them with metropolitan or frivolous cousins at a dinner will often generate gloom, but not always.. . > ' When' Mrs. -Eleanor Martin dines her children and grandchildren it is far from a tiresome occasion.

' TRUCK TEST TO BE HELD TODAY Eieven Vehicles Will Xircle the Bay With Full Load of r Freight R. R. L'HOMMEDIEU Eleven commercial- trucks start today on the first commercial vehicle contest ever held in the states. These cars will leave 'this' morning from Van Neas and Golden Gate aenues and^will cover a distance of 100 mlles,,go!ng to: San Jose and .then .up the other side of the bay, ending a.t^ldora-pa.rk', .where \ the ; auto mobile show'is being held. \u25a0 /v/ v r Unusual Interest is being manifested In this commercial truck endurance run, due to the: fact that 'the loads carried bj-.the dlfferent : trucks Include a. great variety rof merchandise. ''such as barrels of paint, sacks of beans, barrels of oil, wire fencing, etc. Among the large trucks entered are the Frayer Miller, Gramm, Grabowsky, Rapid and Every. \u25a0 All of these trucks are of heavy weight l capacity and their ability to make- 100 miles with full load at an average of 12 miles an hour will be watched' with interest by merchants on both-sides of the bay. Some of the lighter class of cars en tered are the Autocar, Hart-Kraft, Car tercar, Brush and White. These'ma chines are expected to set a fast pace on account of their" light weight. In terest is awakened by the fact that the United States army department of Cali fornia has delegated the : followning noncommissioned officers to accompany these trucks: Sergeant Mashler, Com pany G; Sergeant Mayne, Tenth com pany; Sergeant Little, Company C; Ser geant Levins, V Company- D; Sergeant Phillips, Company E; Corporal, Catch ings, Twenty-seventh company; Setr geant Rogers, Company A; Sergeant Hill, Company F; .Sergeant Edinburgh of Battery A; Master Gunner Chambers, C. A. C; Sergeant: Waite of Troop D and Sergeant Roberson of the Sixty seventh company, C. A. C. . The soldiers will be detailed on the various trucks and will act as observ ers. 1 They will- make notes of the amount of gasoline and oil used by the various machines and the average run ning time on the tour, which informa tion, will be used in determining the final results of the tour. \u25a0 I Tt may be all right to occasionally rush a \ car through , the Inspection de partments with the proverbial "lick and " a prom ise" tests, but - . many a good car has been condemned when a little de lay in thoroughly trying it out be fore shipping would have entirely al tered the complexion of the case.
