rives From Panama.
Serious Trouble on Board-A Boy Fools With
the Wrong Cow-Run Down by
Street Cable-Car

in port yesterday from Panama after
pleasant trip. so far as weather was con-
cerned. There was considerable trouble,
however. among the crew, which started
before the steamer left Panama.
Among the firemen was q big. powerful
fellow named Delehanty, q regular bully,
who is always looking for fight Most of
the men belonging to the steamer were
afraid Of him and always gave him wide
berth whenever he started on the warpath.
About the Quietest man on board Is As
sistant Engineer Garvey. He has seldom
had any trouble with the men i'm his de-
partment. By some means or other he
incurred the enmity of the big fireman and
the bully swore he would whip him the first
chance he got.
The day before the steamer left Panama
Delehanty got drunk ana Immediately
started to hunt up the engineer with the
avowed intention OF drawing him into
fight.
THE TABLES TURNED.
He found him in the engine-rO0m and at
once proceeded TO attack him. In this,
however, lie came out second best. for
blow on the head from moukey-wrencE in
the hands of Carney laid him out, and after
the ships surgeon had sewed up The g Ssh
in his scalp he was placed In irons and kept
in prison until he begged to be released.
War broke out again just before the
steamer reached Champerico. This time it
resulted in one man nearly losing his life.
The paDtry-b0ys on board are all Chinese.
and there is very little love lost between
them and the stewards, who say that the
Chinese are Saucy, while the pantry-boyS
declare that they are given work to do that
does not belong 10 their department. Sec
ond steward Frank Howe went into the
pantry just before the steamer got to Cham
perieo to give some order regarding dinner,
when he was told to stay outside.
FIVE AGAINST ONE.
This be declined 10 do. so the Chinese
went for Howe Mclean fashion. The stew
ard fought bravely. but he was no match
for i've Cinnamon, who knocked him down.
danced on him, kicked him in the face aud
drove butcher-knife through his left arm.
They then threw him out on deck and were
about to pour a pail OF hot water over him,
when he was rescued by the officers.
Howe was patched up by the surgeon, but
has not yet recovered from his injuries, nor
will he for some time to come.
The San Jose lett Aca1utla before the
steamer West IDdian was wrecked and
brings no news regarding per loss. She
brought up "A cabin and so steerage passeR-
gers, 1000 IONS OF cargo and nearly $50, coo in
treasure.
THE cow OBJECTED.
Thomas Richards, an eiEht-year-old resi-
dent of 27A Silver street. paid a visit to the
city front yesterday morning in search OF
adventure and got about all that he wanted
in that line In company with several other
urchlns of about his own age Tommy went
down to the freight slit at the foot OF King
street and spent some time looking at a
couple of circus cars that were standing on
the sidetrack. The flaming posters which
showed a man riding bare-backed steel,
caught the lads eve, and he lOnged to do
likewise, but he had no horse. AT last he
rec0liected COW and calf in one of the cat
tle-pens near by. and thither Tommy and
his chums wendell their way.
The mild-eyed cow looked calmly on as
the lads climbed over the fence, and quietly
submitted TO being petted by tue would be
circus rider. But when Tommy began to
fool with her offspring she objected in a
manner that convinced the lad that he had
better look for another Steed, for she caught
Tommy Oh her horns. and before lie knew
what was the matter he was hoiSted fully 10
feet into the air and landed on his back out
side the corral. The boy was badly bruised
and his clothes torn, but lie escaped without
any serious damage.
THE YORKTOWN.
Quite large number of people visited
the cruiser Yorktown yesterday afternoon

200, besides those that visited the vessel in
small boats. Both the Yorktown and Pen

where the last-named ship will go out of
Gem mission and the Yorktown will be
placed on the drydock 10 ne cleaned and
painted.
A large force Of workmen were at work
on board the mall steamer City of Rio de
Janeiro yesterday. There is great deal of
work To be done on the steamer yet, and il
is hardly possible that she will get away OH
her trial trip before Saturday. Her new
engines are triple expansion. and are ex-
pecied to develop at least 900 horse power
more than the old ones did. The crew are
confident the steamer will beat the 15A
knots made by the City of Picking.
