SLOOP CAPSIZED.
SIX PERSONS DROWNED AT SAN
DIEGO.
They Were Fishing Outside the Harbor
and Were Swamped by SQuall-Their
Bodies Not Yet Recovered.

SAN Diego, CAL, Sept. 1.-The sloop
Petrol, in which were Captain William
P. Hay, his wife and only child, and two
ladies whose names are not known, was
capsized outside the harbor today and
it is believed all of the five occupants
were drowned. The party were ON a
fishing excursion. A sharp wind was
blowing outside and the sloop was under
close reefed SAIL Nobody saw
the accident, but several returning fish
ermen discovered the upturned boat,
and near it the bodies of two women.
They tried to secure the bodies, but
were unable to do so, owing to the high
sea. They came to the city and gave the
alarm. and large feet of boats left here
at once to search for the bodies. 1t is
not believed possible that any OF the
party could have escaped.
LATER-There were six people in the
yacht--Mr. and Mrs. William 2. Hay,
Miss Wallace and a lady and two chill
dren. Mr.. Hay was agent for the
steamer Santa Maria at this place.
Miss Wallace was the daughter of the
Presbyterian minister of this city, The
Others are unknown. The bodies have
not been recovered, and are supposed to
have gone out with the tide. The Petrol
was well-known racing yacht. and
when capsized sank immediately, being
heavily ballasted with lead. All were
certainly drowned

A DOMESTIC TRAGEDY.
The elimination of Quarrelsome Cou-
ple's Brawls.

pIe's Brawls.
STOCKTON, CAL, Sept. IA special to
the Independent from San Andreas,
gives full particulars of the tragedy at
West Point, Calaveras county, as fol-
lows: On Friday afternoon John Gala
CHER, hotel keeper at West Point, shot
at his wife and killed himself.
He and his wife had been
residents of West Point for about
five years, and had kept the principal
hotel at the place. There had been
frequent quarrels between the couple,
ever since their residencelthere. and Gal
lagher had on several occasions
deserted his wife. On Friday
last, they again quarrelled and as the
the face of Gallagher was badly bruised,
it is believed that his wife beat him.
Gallagher was drinking heavily, and was
very quarrelsome. He endeavored to
have his wife arrested. Finally
after some words in the house
she became alarmed at his manner and
ran out in the street screaming murder.
She was followed closely by Gallagher
and ran to Flanders stable,
where he overlook her and
placing his pistol close to her face,
fired TO kill. The ball struck her
in the face, entering through the upper
lip, near the left nostril, and ranged
back through the left jaw, where its
force was spent. The jaw was
badly shattered. The shock was
great, but it is believed
she will recover. Immediately after
shooting his wife, Gallagher turned the
pistol to his own temple, fired and fell a
corpse by his wife's side. The tragedy
was witnessed by number of people,
and the widest excitement prevailed.

election. In subsequent issues, we

THERE is an old adage which runs
that there is nothing like going from
home to learn the news. The following
extract, from the Seattle Telegraph,
shows that old saws often embody
modern instances:
Arrangements have been made by
Captain Banning, of the San Diego and
Port Crescent land and improvement
company, whereby the steamer Her
mosa will be transferred from Southern
California to Puget sound, where she
will ply between Tacoma and Port
Townsend The Hermosa was disas-
trous investment for Captain Banning.
He invested 100000 in town in
Southern California when the boom was
in full blast. The steamer has run
between San Pedro and the Canary
islands, where it was expected to estab-
lish famous watering resort. These
expectations, however, have not been
realized.
The Banning boys have hitherto been
regarded as quite fortunate, and nobody
dreamed that any of them had sunk so
large sum as 100000. However, if
they have indeed been running
the Hermosa to the Canary Is
lands our only wonder is that
they have not sunk at least mil
lion. Considering that the Hermosa
has had to round the Horn before it
could start out on it's trip to the Canary
Islands, and the round trip must be
close upon the many miles that mark
the circumference of the earth, the won
deris, we repeat, that they did not sink at
least million or two. Why they should
have sought to create watering place
at the Canary Islands, when the charm
ing Catalina Islands were SO near at hand
it will probably puzzle even our Seattle
contemporary to explain. But, in order
that the rating of the Banning boys in
the R. G. Dun and other commercial
agencies may not be disturbed, we fear
lessly assert that Capt. Banning has not
lost cent on the Hermosa; and our be-
lief is strong that, instead of losing, he
has made money by making that charm
ing vessel the vehicle of pleasure to so
many Angeleilos in their search for rest
and diversion in that charming group of
islands in the Pacific, known as the
Santa Catalinas. The Canaries in the
the old days were known as the for
tunate isles,'' but from the climatic
point of view they were deuce aces com
pared to the romantic and unique resort
to which the Hermosa has hitherto piled.

LOST AT SEA.
The Bark Buck Believed to Have Con
to the B ottom.

SAN Francisco, Sept. 1.-Captain
Doble, of the ship w. B. Godfrey re-
ports that he spoke the bark Henry
Buck, seventy days from Newcastle,
N. S. W., seven hundred miles off the
New Zealand coast. She was flying the
signals of distress, and Captain Miller, of
the Buck, signalled that they had been
dislnanted by hurricane. He said the
crew had been on short rations for sew
eral days, and begged for supplies. Cap
tain Doble attempted to launch small
boat, but she was stove in by the waves.
He was unable therefore to render any
assistance. The Buck is now out ninety
days from Newcastle, and nothing more
has been heard from her. 1t is thought
that she has been lost. She was loaded
with coal and carried a large crew.

GONE WITH THE COON.
A Pretty Maiden ElOpes with Her
Fathers ColOred Coachman.

NoRTHwooD, Pa, Sept. Yesterday
morning Henry Ashton, a prominent
citizen, sent word to his stable to have
his colored coachman, VIM. Thompson,
bring his horse and carriage to the door.
Thompson, not appearing, he went to
the stable to ascertain the cause of the
delay. From Thompson's wife he
learned that the coachman had gone
away with the horse and carriage
shortly after midnight. Ashton returned
to the house and was informed by his
wife that their daughter Emily could
not be found. A visit to the girls room
furnished proof OF the daughters
flight. A letter to her father
told her love for Thompson, her
effort to conquer the feeling and her
final yielding to her passion, which she
acknowledged could bring but
disgrace upon herself and family.
Miss Ashton is 25 years old
and very pretty. Thompson is described
as an intelligent negro, but very un-
couth. He has a wife and four child
