SAN FRANCISCO, November 10TH
On Monday, at 3 o'clock in the morn
ing, the revenue cutter Oliver VOL
colt picked up one of the crew of the
Pacific off Pillar Point, thirty miles
inside of the straits. He was living,
and on the raft from which Captain
Howell was drowned. He says the
Pacific was struck by vessel under
full sail. 1t is expected, on the return
of the cutter, to hear news of more bo-
ing saved.
Miss Lizzie Cannon to-day filed suit
in the 10th District Court against
Charles McDermott to recover 500, 900
for alleged defamation of character in
1865, when the plaintiff was a young
girl.
The trial of Bartlett j. Il. Freel, alias
Barney Flynn, for the murder of Ned
Allen, proprietor of the Bull Run sa-
loon, on Pacific street, will he COM
menced tomorrow in the 4th District
Court.
Lloyd Bell, the old colored man on
trial in the 4tn District Court for the
murder of Owen Gillen on the 10th of
October. 1873, was found guilty of
manslaughter this afternoon.
A severe Southeast gale prevailed
North of Seattle all day yesterday,
blowing down trees, which in falling
broke down the wires and wholly in
terrupted communication. The friends
of the passengers of the Pacific had
therefore to remain III doubtful sus-
pense about the fate of those near to
them, and no list could be obtained of
those who had taken passage in the
steerage, believed to be about forty in
number This list is only obtainable
from Victoria. OF the crew mentioned
in yesterdays issue, Theodore Muir
ply, assistant engineer, Martin Vice,
seaman, and John Dugan, jr., did not
leave the city on the last voyage, and
hence are safe in San Francisco.
Frank Elwell took Dugan's place on
the Pacific, and others whose names
are not yet known went in the stead
of Murphy and Vice. The Mackaw
Indians live along the place opposite
the beach where the steamer is sup
posed to have been lost, and are con-
stantly on the lookout for objects at
sea. If any RATS escaped the wreck
they were probably seen by the Indi-
ans and the survivors rescued. The
Indians are passing along there every
day in large canoes, going from ono
village to another, or are engaged in
fishing. IL would take some time
for intelligence to reach Port
Townsend, as there is no telegraph
to Cape Flattery, communication be-
ing by occasional pilot boats. 1t would
require day, or perhaps more, for
canoes to reach the Cape from the
scene of the disaster 1t is 12O miles
from Port Townsend to the Cape. The
Indians are all friendly. Captain Mel.
son has adhered steadily to the theory
that there was collision with another
vessel and that the colliding vessel
passed on or sunk to the bottom. He
further says: "After the first shock
imagine the steamer kept OIL, and
when the Captain found she was leak
ing badly he attempted to turn back.
We know that in consequence of the
heavy storms the sea was running very
high. In the attempt to turn BACK or
make the shore the vessel was caught
In the trough Of the sen. II could not
stand more than one or two short
lurches of this description, and went
down, after breaking amidships, in less
time than it takes to tell it," He is ol
the opinion that this heavy sea was
what swamped the boats.
The City Is under reign OF terror
at present, from the great influx of a
desperate class Of criminals suffered to
