COLLISION OF FEREY-BOATs ~ san FRANCISCO
HARBOR N DENSE FOG -UNCERrAINTY
WHETHER All WE'RE SAVED.
san FRANCsCO, Feb. f9-AbOut o'clock tins
afternoon the ferry steamers FL Captain and
Alameda, plying between this city and Oakland
Point collidad IN mid-passagc. \ dense fog pre-
vailed, and the boats were close to each other
before they could be seen. The bow Of the FL
CaDitan struck the Alameda on the port quarter.
SCATTERING her guard and rail, but doing her no Sc
rious damage. The port bow Of the FL Captain was
crushed in. aud she illed and sank rapidly. The
greatest terror and confusion prevailed; some Of
the FL Capitan's passengers jumped on board the
Alameda, and Others sprane into the water. In a
few moments the steamers drftcd apart and lost
sight Of each other in the fog. The FL Captain
sank to the hurricane deck, aud drfted rapidly
toward North Point In a strong ebb tide.
The Harbor Commissioners tug Governor Irwin,
which was IN the vicinity, plotted by the cries of
the passengers and the screaming Of the whistles,
steamed at once to the scene OF the disaster, and
picked up those who were struggling In the water.
t is impossible at present to state the loss OF life,
ifany. Many persons are Of the opinion that all
were sa7ed but others say that il is hardly posi-
bic that all escaped. The submerged wreck Of the
Fl Captain was grappled by tugs off Meiggs's
wharf and is now being lowed mp 70 the city front.
There is great excitement in the city, and crowds
are gathered IN the streets discussing the accident
Both steamers were feuy-boats Of the first class.
The latest report IL that no lives were lost.

REASONABLE SUN FOR THE TRANSFORMATIONS

REASONABLE SUN FOR THE TRANSFORMATIONS
OF THE SOUTH ANGLICAN MAILS.
IN TELEGRAPH To THE TEraCSEl
washington, Feb. l9-The senate spent the
day considering the Post Office Appropriation bill
The Brazilian mail contract which the senate
Committee on Appropriations has authorized to be
incorporated into an amendment TO the bill, is the
OILY texture which has thus far caused or IS likely
20 cause any extended discussion. This feature Of
the bH was reached n o'clock and a repetition Of
the proceedings If last year ensucd A point OF Or
der WIS made that the question was not germane 70
bin. aud was lost.
Another point Of order that it was general leeis-
laion upon an appropriation bill, and therefore not
in accordance with the rules Of the senate, caused
long and earnest discussion. Senators Edmund'
and Blvard both pronounced themselves now and
always opposed 10 tho dangerous Practice of
e1-raftiDg irrelevant matter upon appropriation
bills.
Senator Blaine said that if this to obtain,
there would be a necessity foc an understanding
with the House on this point To set up the rale
ioi the senate alone woald limit that body TO the
subordinate srhcre Of passing upon such legislation
as might be sent to 1t from the othor branch II
Congress.
The Chair overruled this point OF order, AID it
was appealed to the Senate. The vote by which
the ruling of the Chair was sustained IS considered
fair test of the strength Of fe subsidy feature in
the senate. 1t stood 80 TO -, and there is little
doubt but that the senate VIII pass tho measure By
4 small majority.
The debate upon the merits Of the mail contract
question continued until after O'Clock, when IN"
Senate went into executive session and adjourned.
Dutiug the debate. Senator Eaton, who opposed
making tcn-vcarS contract with John Roach, but
wished % limit it To four years. was told that the
Government could AT any time repeal the law. 10
this he rcplied that never while he had a voice in
the control OF the Nations affairs would he consent
to the dish0n0r OF breaking solemn contract, even
though il should prove 70 be Instantaneous 10
the Government. Senator Conkng then made the
quaint suggestion a compromise that the con-
tract - carry the Brazilian mails he let 10 OF
the Chinese companies. IN which case the Govern
ment could reccde from it or break It without
bringing di~hOnor or Inconvenience upon Its Elf.
SenatOr Eaton strong supporter Of the
Chinese restriction scheme.
