VALLETTA. Malta, June 3O.-The Brit.

having on board the surviving officers
and crew of the battleship Victoria.
Large crowd gathered along the water
front awaiting their arrival. Everybody
was eager to learn the full particulars
of the catastrophe.
AS soon as the cutter was reported of
the port hundreds of small boats con-
veying relatives and friends of the sur
vivors and a number of relatives of those
who lost lives put outside the harbor t
meet the war ships. The latter came
into port slowly, thus allowing the small
boats to keep up with them without
much difficulty. The survivors GRO wded
along the bulwarks of the cruisers, call

answering fully as possible the hun
dreds of questions put to them by every

The survivors had little news to tell OF

Revenue From the Railroad.
Monday night the City Council passed
by unanimous vote Mr.. Mauuers ordi-
nance placing a license tax of $40 per an
nun on oil steamears operated within the
city limits. This ordinance provides that
cars operated on the Alameda and Berke-
ley lines and on the through lines are ex-
empted from the tax. Thus the narrow
gauge road and the Seventh-street line to
Haywards alone are affected.
In all thirty-five cars will be subject to
taxation and an additional revenue of 500
per annum will be netted the city. The
railroad officials are not opposed TO the
ordinance, and. as Mayor Pardee is said TO
favor 1t, it will probably become law by
the first of the year.
Ten dollars per anDum, by the same
ordinance. will be taxed all streetcars
operated in the city. without regard to
