He murders His Daughter and
Attempts Suicide.
SAN JOSE, December 22.-Willian
Eubanks, q widower, aged about As
years, this morning about 10 o'clock.
went to the kitchen door of the Heath
House at Los Gatos, where his 16 year
old daughter Ada was employed, and
shot her through the heart with one
barrel of shotgun, she falling and dy-
ing instantly. He turned the other bar.
rel on himself and also fell, but it wac
subee quently ascertained that he suf
fsred no injury. He then went into an
adjoining saloon, and after taking drink
of LIQUOR went upstairs and gashed his
throat from ear to ear with razor, but
did not cut deep enough to endanger his
life, the wound being promptly dressed.
A letter scrawled in memorandum book
in his pocket announces his intention to
kill himself and his daughter, saying he
can't get along on account of his chill
dren.
An hour before the shooting he had
been reproached by relatives. for not
caring for his children, and this may
have prompted the act. The murdered
girl left her fathers house six weeks ago
to escape abuse, and since worked in
the house where she was killed. Los
Gatos people all give the girl an excel
lent reputation for industry and other
good qualities, and say her fathers only
ground of complaint was that che in
sisted on using her slender earnings for
the support of her younger brothers and
sisters, in place Of giving them to him to
suuander for whiskey.
In an interview in the jail Eubanks
said he did not want to live because OF
the girls immortality. He explained
the failure to shoot himself by saying he
must have put both charges of shot in
one barrel. His wife died two years ago.
He is laborer. and is said to be ad-
dicted TO the use of LIQUOR.

AN ILL-FATED VESSEL.
The Ship Durham is Again
Unlucky.
DISASTER FOLLOWS DISASTER.
Her Two Mates Drowned in the
Bay-Sterling Qualities of
the UnfOrtunates.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
SAN Francisco, ,Decem Der 22.-Charlef
Stevens, first mate, and William Higgin'
son, second mate, of the Inflated shiI
Durham, which was damaged by fire al
Port Costa last week, and in the hold ol
which two men were suffocated by foul
gases last Friday, we're drowned in
the bay this afternoon. Stevens
and Higginson, together with four
others, started from the ship, which is
anchored in the bay, in email boat for
shore. A high wind and a strong tide
were prevailing at the time, and in at
tempting to run near barge anchored
in the stream their boat was washed
against the anchor.chain Of the barge
and capsiaed. The men were thrown in
the water, but managed to secure hold of
tho anchor, except the two mates, who
clung to the boat, which drifted
away and sank, both men going down.
Both men are natives Of Liverpool, and
Higginson leaves q wife and several
children in that city.
Captain Butler, Master of the Durham,
when seen later, was greatly distressed
over the sad affair. "They were the two
smartest men that l ever had sail with
me-" said ne, "and feel as if | had lost
one OF my own household. Higginson,
the second mate, had been with me for
three years, and better man could not
wish for. He was an intelligent,
active, firstrate sailor and a great favor
ite with the mon. Stevens has only been
with me one trip, having shipped at
Sydney. He was an excellent man, and
far above the average"
Boats were sent cut to drag the bay
for the bodies of the drowned men, but
up to late hour tonight neither of them
had been recovered.
A strange fatality seems to hang over
the British ship Durham. Last Tuesday
morning fire broke out on the vessel
while she was taking in cargo of wheat
at Port Costa. She WAS towed
down to the city on the following
day and moored at Mission rock. On
Friday, Captain J.. Freeman, of the
marine survey for Lloyds' agency, and
Fred R. Cotton, representative of the
same firm, were suffocated to death in the
hold while making q survey Of the ship.
and today at the very hour when the
funeral of Freeman and Cotton was In
progress, Charles Stevens and William
Higginson, the first and second mates Of
the ill-fated ship, we're drowned in the

1t is stated that there would be far less
crime in the city if the Police force was
increased in size so as to compare with
that of other cities. Los Angeles has a
population OF at least 10000 and only 72
policemen, including Captains, clerks,
jailor, patrol-wagon driver and sergeants.
There are actually only about 55 police
men engaged in looking for criminals,
and this makes but one officer to every
5000 people when there should be an
officer to every 500. A liberal estimate
of active officers for the city the size Of
Los Angeles is given as 160. exclusive oi
Captain, Sergeants, etc. The following

ALUATIONS-CIT
POLICE MATTERS.
The Arrests for a Year With Conn
PARSONS.

The work of the Los Angeles police
force has been by no means light during
the past year, and while compared with
other cities there are fewer policemen,
there is also less crime. In table given
else where the arrests for the year are
given in comparison with those of 1887.
The nature OF the crimes for which the
arrests were made is also given, and this
table will show that the majority of ar
rests were for minor offenses. The
smallness of the number of arrests for
the more serious crimes does not indicate
that the police were inactive, but that
the crime did not exist. Unfortunately
there is no means at hand to make COM
parisons with other cities in the matter
of the number OF arrests and nature of
the crimes, but it is admitted by all
officers who visit Los Angeles that the
city is remarkably free from crime. The
records in this city show the following
arrests since 1879:
