passed the two men, Notwithstanding they
shouted until they were hoarse.
AT last, when the men bad almost given
up hope. they were seen by the crew of a
passing hshlng-bOat, who at once went to
their rescue. When picked up the men
were very much exhausted and were able to
render no assistance to the fishermen in
righting the boat, which was finally lowed
alongside the French ship Valparaiso.
The crew of the ship righted the boat and
dried the mems clothes, after which they re-
turned to Oakland on the ferry-boat, leav-

IN FROM ALASKA.
Another of the sealing fleet arrived In
port yesterday afternoon. She was the lit
tie schooner San Diego. and as u result of
the short seasons work she brought back
400 sealskins consigned to r. Wheeler.
Since the San Diego left this port she has
| only sighted one sealer, and that British
vessel. Nearly all her skins were caught
before she entered Behring Sea.
The English gun-boat Pheasant was the
vessel that warned the San Diego to leave,
and very nearly lost half a dozen men doing
SO. After the official Notice had been given
and while the boat containing six men was
| returning to the Pheasant, the boat was
capszed and the men thrown into the
water.
There was a heavy swell running at
the time, and it would have gone badly
with the British tars had not the American
sealers gone to their assistance AS soon
as the accident was seen the crew of the
sealer launched their boats, and before the
crew of the Pheasant could get boat into
the water the men were rescued Beyond
ducking no harm was done, but
had the men been obliged 20 wait for their
own boats some OF them would have been
drowned.
The crew of the San Diego were greatly
surprised when they heard that the Al-Ki
was at Oonalaska acting as prison-shlp.

There were two accidents yesterday after
noon by falling overheard, and in both
cases the victims were boys johnny Burk
was fishing from the end of Fishermen's
Wharf about o'clock in the afternoon, and
was either pushed or fell from the wharf
| into the bay, narrowly escaping landing on
| his head on the deck of fishing boat, much
| to the surprise of the owner of the craft.
| The fisherman was quick witted, however,
for as soon as the boys head appeared
| above water he caught him by the hair and
| dragged him into the boat. Johnny had
hard luck, for in addition to the wetting
some one stole a fine string of fish before he
