One Mau Drowned and His COmDani on
Rescued in Time.
A life was lost in the bay by the capsiziDg
of boat during a sQuall yesterday morn
ing, and but for the timely arrival Of the
scow-schoOner Anna Alden another would
have been sacrificed. The victim Of the ac-
cident was a Chinese shrimper, who, with
a companion, was on the way from one of
the Chinese fsh-camps to San Quentin with
a load OF shrmps.
They had left their camp early in the
morning. and by o'clock were of The
Brothers, when a sudden sqUall upset the
/ boat, throwing them into the water. The
shrimpeTs were terribly frightened, but
managed TO climb on the bottom of the boat
in spite Of the sea that was running rather
heavily and constantly threatening to wash
them from their trall support.
The cold and wet soon chilled the poor
wTetchcs, but they chung to the boat for
about an hour, when one Of them named
An Jim was swept from the boat and sank
10 rise 30 more. His hOTror-strcken COM
paniOn aroused himself TO greater efforts
and succeeded in keeping his hold on the
boats keel until the Anna Alden came
along and rescued him.
He was thoroughly exhausted Captain

A CANARD.
No Truth in the Report That General
CARA Was Here.

No Truth in the Report That General
Garza Was Here.
A rumor that General CARA was visiting
the city incognito had limited circulation
on the streets last night, but could nos be
traced to any reliable source
At the office OF the Mexican Consulate
the statement was received with suspicion
by the Secretary. who, while admitting that
be could not speak tor Consul Coney
authoritatiyely. professed to have no doubt
but that the rumoT was canard.
A visit to the detective agencies and po-
lice headquarters showed that DO credence
whatever was placed in the report by the
majority OF them. Only one of the trater-
nifty held a contrary opinion, but could give
no good reason for his belief.
Consul A. X. Coney was found at MS
residence on Post street, at late hour last
night, and did not hesitate 10 characterize
the report as absurd. at is true, he SAID,
zone OF my clerks thought he recognized
Cara at one Of our theaters, but on closer
scrutiny he saw he was mistaken lie
knows the rebel chief well, having been a
schoolmate Of his.
so far as the Mexican Government IS
concerned" continued the Consul, ." have

they have offered any reward for bis cap

In August Terrence Pagan was arrested
for stabbHng Edward S!emplein q Stockton

answer a charge Of assault with a deadly
weapon. His father, James Pagan, who
is q B1sh-street livery stable man, and his
m0theT-in-law went on bis bonds and Sc
cured his release. Several coHtinuances
were had, possibly to allow the complaining
witness TO become a little weary, and Terry
himself went on a tour through Arizona and
the south.
Some way or other his bOndsmen we're
worked Up % an anxious pitch about him,
and caused his arrest last week in Los An

was sworn in as q Deputy Sheriff and sent
to Los Angeles for the absent one When
Terry was turned over to Jim by the south
eTn authorities they celebrated the occasion
by tour Of the saloons, the result being
that Jim became so drunk that he lost
Terry and also himself Terry then hunted
Jim up, aud when he found him the latter
was without cent. having spent all his
funds iu their rar0use.
Terry then borrowed money enough 10

Seaman NeIs Peterson Killed on Board
The McCallum Moore.
A sad and fatal accident occurred yester-
day morning on board the British ship Nc
Callum Moore. lying in the stream off
Vallejo streeI. The vessel is loaded ready
for sea, and such of the crew as were on
board were employed bending sail. Nels
Peterson, after assisting to bend the main
royal and tOpgallant sails, assembled to the
upper maintOpsail yard to bend that sail.
The poor fellow was about half way out
on the yard-arm when he missed his footing
and fell backward headlong to the deck, a
distance of nearly 100 feet. He turned over
twice and then landed on the main deck
with a terrible crash. The officers on deck
at once went to him. fully expecting to find
him a corpse, but ne was alive.
The poor man was carried into the cabin
and boat sent for DR.. Lawlor, who gave
orders to have the unfortunate removed 10
the Marine Hospital. This was done as
soon as possible, but Peterson died soon
after being admitted.
The doctor found that the right wrist,
thigh and ankle we're broken and the chest
and ribs crushed by the fearful fall. The
deceased was native OF Denmark, q years
OF age and had been on board the ship since
she left ENGLAND
