STEAMER LOST IN THE FOG.
She Wanders Around Lake Washington
In Vain Search of Renton.


The little steamer Renton, on Lake Washing
ton, was lost in the fog yesterday morning, and.
while she was trying TO get into familiar waters,
had one collision and several narrow escapes
from others
She started at o'clock as usual from the
wharf at the end of the Rainier avenue electric
line, bound for Renton at the head of the lake,
eight or ten miles south. She had been out about
an hour in the thick fog, when she struck
the corner OF wharf that proved to be on Mer-
Ger island. The steamer had started in the right
direction, but after going a mile or two had
turned around and gone several miles in an OPP
posite direction.
As there was no prospect of the fog rising the
captain concluded to start out again, and after
looking over the boat for possible damage from
the collision with the wharf, he turned her head
about and started again for Renton. At the end
OF about ten minutes he saw a wharf ahead
and Stacked up and landed safely. To his as
constituent and to the dismay of his load of
passengers he found that il was the same wharf
that he had landed at a few minutes before.
A third time he started out and almost ran
down a fishermans boat. The little steamer
was out whole hour this time, and just as the
passengers were congratulating themselves
upon the prospect of having about reached
Renton, she drew up at her original starting
point. Then she started out again and made it
all right

The bitter feeling which has existed among
the miners against Superintendent Corey, of the

Franklin on the evening train. and while the
train stood In the depot at Black Diamond q
stone was thrown out OF the darkness through
the window at which he sat, his weil-known
face showing plainly In the light of the ear. The

soft felt hat II was impossible to see his as
saiIant in the darkness outside.

NEW York, April 29.-Rev. DR.. Boutwell,

hospital, Brooklyn. 1t is now ten days
since he accidentally drew a cork into his
left lung. The cork is about an inch long
and nearly half an inch thick, such one
as Is used for a four ounce bottle. All me-
chanlcai means for the removal of the cork
tailed and surgery was resorted to. An in
clslon was made in the windpipe and the
operators saw the cork in the bronchial
tube. The surgeons worked for two hours
but it was impossible to get the cork out,
as none of their instruments would take
hold of it. There is no news in regard
TO the patient at the hospital except that
his case was hopeful. The reverend doctor
is at present breathing through silver tube
inserted in the windpipe. The cork cannot
De allowed to remain in his lungs, as it
would cause Inflammation and death,
owing to its porous character it has swol-

"Old' Hutch. Mysteriouslv MISSING

CHICAGO, April 29.-There was a very
panicKy feeling in the grain pits this morn
ing, July wheat opened at s1.04aI to s. O4s<
against sLO615 at the close yesterday. It
advanced to SL05% and up to the close
huctuated between that and S1.0414. Corn
was also lower at the opening, followed bv
a rally.
Inc break In prices was caused by the
rumor that b. P. Hutchinson, the veteran
Spectator, was in financial trouble No
facts in evidence were given by those who
talked OF the matter, though it was reported
that he had lost heavily on both wheat and
corn on the recent heavy advance and on
the subsequent break.
y, hutchinson was not to be found upon the
moor OF the exchange and nothing could be
learned as to the real situation of his affairs
The early runors died out, but later it was
SAID Hutchinson was mysteriously missing.
inquiry at the Office of the Corn Exchange
National bank brought out confirmation
OF the rumors. Vice President Hammil of
the bank said his family had not seen him
since yesterday afternoon when the board
closed. The superstition among Hutchin-
sons friends Is that he wandered in a fit of
temporary mental alteration. The actual
condltlon OF Hutcbinson's affairs is not
known, though it is understood nearly ali
OF his trades have been closed out. and a
private dispatch from Milwaukee SAYS all
OF his deals there have been closed. What
ever is his financial condition, it is not be-
ileved anyone will lose anything through
him.
A gentleman who is near relative of
Mr.. Hutchinson said his family had seen
for some time his mind was affected and
had been considering whether it would NOT
be better to take some measures of re-
straint. The trades made by him are found
to be few in number, they being settled
now, and there are ample funds to meet all
his liabilities.
