WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-Mail advices to
the Navy Department bring report from
Captain Wiltz, of the United States
steamer Boston, in regard to the wreck Of
the American ship Campbell. 1t differs
from previous accounts, that is in the
statement by Captain Wiltz that the Bos-
ton went on cruise after the castaways.
Honolulu advices previously received
stated that United States Minister Ste
vens was severely criticised for his fail
ure to send the Boston III quest of the
missing sailors. The mates boat, which
was the only one heard from, was twenty
three days ont from the ship before reach
ing Hilo.
The mate said: I'VE lived during the
passage on half a tin of water a day, the
tin being about the size OF a condensed
milk can. The water lasted eight days,
and then we lived on the same allowance
OF wine, beer or stout. We had no rain
at all, in consequence of which we got no
more water. In addition TO the liquid
food, we had about three dozen tins of
various preserves. We could not possi-
bly, have lasted three days longer. and
one day more would have killed some of
the crew. During the twenty-three days
prayers were said by me twice day. L
think prayed fifty times day. Strange
to say, all were answered except the
prayers for rain. 1t was a Just punish
ment for our former sins, and it will turn
out eleven good and true Christians"
Captain Wilt says the men were in an
awful condition when rescued, but will
recover. He thinks the chances for the
other boat having been picked up by
some ship good.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2.-There was a
big crowd of trotting horsemen at the
salesyards of Killip IL Co. to-day. The
occasion was the sale of standard and
high-bre brood mares, colts ana fiIlies
of John L. McCord, the well-known Sac
ramento breeder. The bidding was not
so lively as might have been expected
from the class and breeding of the
horses catalogued, still the auctioneers
were kept hard at work disposing
of fifty-one lots. The three particular
stars of the sale went remarkably cheap.
The first was Brown Jennie. She was
expected to bring a phenomenal figure.
but when 500 had been reached she was
bought in. When Mary Lou was
led out there was some spirited bid
ding, and finally she was knocked
down to DR.. Eckles for $1,000. Then
Shylock, the well-known campaigner OF
the recent fall circuit, was brought under
the hammer, and was finally secured by

SAN Francisco, Nov. 2.-For almost
the first time in the history of the port,
one of the Oregon steamers was stopped
by revenue cutter yesterday. All yes
sells coming from domestic ports are
allowed to dock and discharge without
supervision.
When Captain POLICEMAN was bringing
in the steamer Oregon yesterday the
revenue cutter Hartley ran up alongside
and placed three Custom-house officers
on board. This was the result of a
telegram to Collector Phelps asking him
to look out for five cases of playing cards
marked Ashcroft, San Francisco"
This morning the seals were removed,
and the work of discharging the cargo
was resumed. Inspector Shipman over
hauled case marked sc. l.. A. d Co.,

80 iive-tael tins of Victoria opium. -Four
more cases of the same marking were
then unearthed, and two of them con-
tanned 80 cans each. One contained 33S
cans and the fourth $40 cans, making in
all $40 live-tael tins, or nearly half ton
OF the drug.
The Customs authorities valued it at

been $3.50. Tie stuff was removed to

Mrs. J. g. johnson and her l5-year-old

one bullet taking effect in the back, an

not capable OF contributing support to his

self. After arranging the preliminaries
she retired for tine night but did not go to
sleep, for when found she was fully

Mrs. Johnson, it is thought, waited until
her son was in sound slumber then she
entered his room gently and shot him.
Then she walked across the hall, stretched
herself out full length on the bed and
killed herself.
The dead people are not known to have
any relatives in this city, but it is re-
ported that Mrs. johnson has a sister
