This Is the Second Time He Has Stood
Before Evans and Sontag.
FRESNO. Sept. 13-AdditioEal informa-
tion concerning the encounter between the
train-robbers and posse has just been OBJ
tanned by telephone from Moore & Smiths
mill at Sequoa. The affair happened this
morning at 10 O'Clock on Young's place at
Sampson Fiat A posse consisting of
United States Marshal McGinnis, yick Will
SOD, l.. Olsen, Constable Warren Hill,
George Witty. the two Apache scouts and
one or two others. had tracked the robbers
from Dunlap to Sampson Flat. about forty
five miles east OF here, in the mountain
Businesses.
The posse was coming down the trail by
Young's place, and had NO sooner got op-
posite than the door of Youug's house was
violently thrown open and Evans and Son.
tag appeared on the SILL Before the officers
could recover from their surprise the two
robbers opened a deadly fire on tho posse
with shotguns and then with Winehesters
The posse was so demoralZed by the sudden
attack that they could make no effectual
resistance. Four men fell under the deadly
FIRE of the robbers. Three are said to be m or
tally wounded. The names OF the latter are /:
United States Deputy Marshal McGinnis,
Wick Wilson aud L. Olsen. George Witty,
who was so BADLY wounded in his en-
shot through the neck, though 1t is lot be-
lieved he is mortaly wounded.
The horse ridden by Con stable Warren
Hill was shot from under him, and one or
two other members of the posse were
slightly wounded. The Apache scouts es-
capped unhurt. 1t could not be found out
whether the robbers were wounded, but it
is likely not very badly, il at all. Immedi-
ately after the robbers escaped without any
interference up further into the mountains
in a northeast direction.
The dead men and George Witty are In
Young's house, where Witty is receiving the
best OF care. The whole country ia tn Q
neighborbood of the encounter is aroused,

robbers alive will be made. They will be

WRECKED ON SANTA ROSA.
The Good Ship Golden Horn Goes ishOr,
in a Fog.
HER CREW HiS 4 NARROW ESCAPE
Finding No People Upon the Island, the SurViTsr
Reach Santa Barbara After Hours Of
Exposure in Open Boats.
Special to THE MORNING CALL.

SANTA BARBARA. Sept 49, The British
bark G0ldenhorn went ashore Or the south
end of Santa Rosa Island at o'clock last
night. The crew consisted of twenty y-eight
and no lives were lost. The vessel will
probably be complete wreck.
The officers aud crew OF the wrecked ves-
sci arrived here at 6 o'clock this evening.
Captain Dunn, the master of the vessel was
seen and gives the following particulars of
the wreck: The Goldenhorn was sailing
through heavy fog when the lookout re-
ported Land ahead" Every effort was
made to get out of the place, but the wind
seemed to lull and before the ship would
answer her helm her bow struck bottom.
Finding it would be impossible to get her
off and as the vessel was sinking rapidly,
the men took TO the small boats. When
they left her she was completely Quilted att
and heavy sea was breaking over her. la
the darkness the coast was not dseernible,
but was seemingly rocky. Ii the weather
continues fair it may be possible to save
some Of the luggage on the ship. Nothing
was saved by the men, they barely escaping
with their lives. Some even had no coats.
While others were hatless and sh0eless. In
this condition, in the small boats. they fol-
lowed the coast line until they effected a
landing at o'clock this morning at Beach,
er's Cove. That part of the Island is unin-
habited, and at 8 o'clock the party left in
their boats for the mainland, where they
arrived after having been over twenty
hours with scarcely anv food and having
rowed their boats probably over fifty miles.
The Godenhorn was e four-masted bark
owned by James R. de Wolf & Son of Liv-
erpool. She was built at Greenock In 1889,
and was 268 feet long, 40 feet beam aud e
feet depth of hold.
The Goldenhorn was four-masted iron
bark of 1912 tons, rated AL and left Newcas-
tie. New South Wales, on July with a Cargo
of coal for San Pedy0. She was therefore,
seventy-one days out when she met the fate
common to ships. She was commanded by
Captain Dunn, good seaman, but how she
came TO be sufficiently far north to strike
Santa Rosa Island is mystery. 1t is pos
sible, however, that the captain lost his
bearings in the f0gs that have recently pre-.
vailed along the Southern California coast,
and that he approached so close to the
island before he was aware of the vicinity
of land that it was too late to save the ship.
Santa Rosa Island lies off Santa Barbara
and to have struck upon it the GOldenh0ru
must have been at least 100 miles out of her
course. The coast of Santa Rosa is high
and rocky. and, being exposed to the fu
sweep of the ocean swell, it is not at all
likely that the vessel can De saved.

kindly in the name of Evans and Sontag
for their use. Evans also sent word that he
intended TO kill the man who shot through
his house.
The camp of the robbers was discovered
on the same day they were at H0wells.
The camp was near Dunlap, and contained
a large quantity of provisions, together with
copies of the latest papers. This seems to
carry out the assertion made by the men
when they were at Ellis place that they see
the newspapers and keep posted as to all
movements made to capture them.
Detective Smith says he has ascertainec
who the parties are who have been supply
ing Evans and Sontag with provisions, thus
