Captains
SAN Francisco, Aug. 23--Captain Wallace
of the City of Chester, which collided with
the Oceanic yesterday, made the following
statement to representative of the Associ-
ated Press: I was standing on the bridge and
the Chester was feeling her way out through
the fog, blowing her whistles regularly, when
the Oceanic's whistle was heard. We an
swersd her and I supposed we would get
through all right. had an idea that she
was on our port side somewhere and I an
swered her accordingly. took proper steps
to avoid her and suppose she thought she
was CLEAR of us. Suddenly her great black
hulk came up out of the fog. There was no
human possibility of getting out of the way
and the Oceanic struck as on the port side
near the gang plank The Chester sank in
four minutes.
CAPTAIN METcALFs STORY.

SENATOR FRYE's OPINION.

Senator Frye said It simply means that
President Cleveland wants to play the baby
act in regard to the retaliation act of March
3, 1887, just as he played the baby act about
the law which authorized him to
| buy United States bonds with
surplus revenue. Everybody knows how
unwilling, he has been all along to accept
| that retaliation act and carry it out loyalty,
and now he comes playing the baby act again.
He says he does not know what it means and
wants to be told what it means"

The much needed Improvement Of J street
above Fourteenth is being considered, as it is
the leading thoroughfare in and out Of the city
on the cas-, and during the rain season b comes.
very bad for travel Another street which
equally requires attention is Tenth between n
and the City Cemetery This street is travelled
as much or more than any in the city, and in
the winter season frequently becomes almost
impossible. Its constant use by funeral pro
cessons passing over IT, renders il of interest to
the people of the entire city that the street
should be put in proper condition, and so main
tanned The impr Ivement of aud Tenth streets
should both receive early and favorab econsid-
Grafton. In this connection the completion of
the Improvements on \ and Twenty first streets,
so as TO give good roadway out of the city on
the south and southeast, should also be main
tanned. These communicating streets and roads
between the city and outlying country are i'm
portant arteries, vital TO the interests of both,
and which cannot be too well improved and
cared for. n street is now finely graded and
graveled 70 Fifteenth street. 1t only requires
that this improvement be continued 10 Twenty
first, and thence south along Twentyirst one
block 10 high ground commencing at o street,
and the thoroughfare into the city, on that side,
will be complete. The Improvements thus sug-
gested upon these three streets are of greatest
importance from present demands, and also in
view of the rapidly increasing travel and traffic
between the city and the rich producing Sec
tons south of us.

Frank Daniels. the popular low comedian
made himself favorite by his personation OF
F." Old sport" in Hoyt's extravaganza, A Rag
Baby" Daniels is now on the road on his own
account in a piece entitled Little Puck" billed
tor the Metropolitan rheaier November 9th and
2sth, the box-sheet opening on Monday. In the
play he takes, of course, the low-comedy part
He Will be supported bv Miss Bessie Sanson a
favorite specially actress, and by a selected
company. Daniels says his play is free from
Vandesille.' but is a sirocco of mirth and
music" The Philadelphia Telegraph says the
plsy is a blending of spectacular drama with
the reigning skit and the legitimate com
edy-founded upon Anstey's book entitled
Vice Versa, in which the old hero
while holding a talisman, wishes him
self boy and his son a man, and instantly
finds his wish realized. Four New York authors
have elaborated in raising dramatic struet-
ure on this foundation. In the invol-
untary changes which Daniels experiences as
Buckingham Giltedge. a matter-offact stock
broker resolved into school boy in appearance
and actual situation, and yet conscious that he
is the victim of some frightful hoodoo, and
really the father and not his own son. the widest
scope of his versatile humor is given to the
comedian. Daniels is not star raised to
position of first magnitude by a special hit, but
studious artist with no ordinary creative
chill
