WAVES WASHED OVER HER.
Everybody Had to Take to the
Rigging for Safety.
PUMPS ARE SILL ON BOARD.
They May Possibly Be Lost-The
Tug Newsboy Lands the Wreck
ing Crew.

Nature lost her temper yesterday for the
first time since the City of New York
went on the rocks, and in consequence the
steamer was deserted at noon, all hands
coming ashore on the steam schooner
Newsboy.
1t only blew at the rate of eight miles an
hour off Point Reyes. but there must have
been heavy weather further off the coast,
as swell set in early in the morning and
increased in volume to such an extent that
by noon waves were washing over the
vessels decks and even breaking over her
forward Lighthouses.
Everything movable was battered about
in lively fashion and the wreckerS on
board began to fear for their lives.
Each incoming roller seemed higher
than the one previous. The steamer was
lifted, first at the bow, then at the stern,
as though balancing on a common center
like seesaw. Every bump shook her like
an explosion.
Staterooms on the hurricane deck were
filed with water and the main deck had to
be abandoned entirely.
Next the crew were forced to take to the
rigging, including Captain Whitelaw and
those of the Pacific Mails officers who
were on board.
The lfeboats from the two life-saving
stations were close by, but 1t was lmpossi-
BILE TO get them alongside in manner per-
hitting of the transfer of persons from the
wreck. Booms were utilized and one by
one the frightened wreckers dropped into
the boats.
Owing to the position of the New York
head on to the breakers-it is not thought
that tue vessel will go entirely to pieces. Ii
she had been broadside to the waves she
would have been broken up in short order
Very little if any machinery was taken
off the steamer, and should the waters
break her up, great deal of valuable
wrecking appliance NAV be lost.
The lifeboats sferEed the people
from the New York to the Newsb0y,
which took them to Meiggs wharf in
safety. Only one officer remained by the
wreck. He is one OF the steamship COM
pany's representatives, and remained on
board the tug Rescue, which stood by the
New York. all night.
1t is stated that Captain Gray OF the
Red Stack TOwboat Company is very
much provoked that his boats were not
allowed 10 hook onto and pull tie New
York off the rocks on the first day set for
an attempt to save the vessel. The repre-
sentatives Of the Pacific Mail Company
did not think that the steamer could be
foated, therefore no tugs were allowed to
hook on at the critical moment.
1t seems to be the opinion of those who
profess to know something about wrecking
a steamer that Captain Whitelaw should
have been allowed to use his pun pS and
Captain Gray his boats at the particular
crisis mentioned 1t looks as If the fate of
the New York was decided about that
particular time. She was allowed to settle

GOOD TEAM WORK.
The Oaklands Played Ball
in Fine Style.
An Easy Victory Over the San Fran
ciSCOS-Three New Men From
the National League.

The Oakands won from the San Fran
ciscos at the Haight-street grounds yester-
day by score of TO 8.
This result was partly due to the pres
ence of Tommy Parrot in the box. Willie

Brown at first base-all three just from
National League glory, and partly to OPP
perfume work with the stick.
Certain is it that the Colonies put up
ball like a ball team, not like jobot of
players. Val Haltren was missing at short,
but Hines covered the ground in fine
shape.
Denny reached first every time he came
to the plate, twice on called balls, once on
single and twice on wo-baggers.
The ten hits made off PARROT were we'll

Piqugney's slow hit toward first.
In the eighth McGucken singled and

The Richmond District.

The inability of the Richmond residents
10 secure the building of the sewer outlet
for that district is again the absorbing
topic.
The nuisance existing on Lake street,
near Twenty-frst avenue, caused by the
sewage flowing out of an open manhole
upon the public streets and poisoning the
atmosphere surrounding, was bitterly
complained Of, and the Supervisors were
charged with being responsible for the
outrage.
1t was stated in complaint which is to
be sent to the Supervisors directing their
notice to the predicament of the Richmond
citizens that the Board Of Supervisors
alone is responsible for the same.

DAVIES ANSWER.
The Competing Company
Makes Reply
To Governor Markilam'S Request for
Its Views i'm Regard to
Ferry Slips.

The Davie Ferry Company has answered
the plea sent to Governor Markham by
the League of Progress, arraigning the
Harbor Commissioners. Their commune
cation reads:
stIn response to your request 10 give you a
atement Of our attitude on the subject of the
pplication by this company 10 The State Board
OF Harbor commissioners for suitable land
ing.place at he foot of Market street, in the
city OF San Francisco, we respectfully submit
the following:
Early ia the month of July, after the Davie
Ferry Company had been established and was
in operation, we appeared before the Board OF
HarbOr Commissioners and made application
for landing place in immediate proximity TO
the lines OF street railways, which, as your Ex-
celency Is OF course aware, converge at tie
foot of Market street. at that time we were
running but one boat. the steamer Rosalie.
Prior to the time she passed into possession of
the present owners. she had been running TO
Vallejo, ana had assigned TO her the berth at
which she had been landing, viz, the outer one
al The end OF Mission Pier l. We were In
formed by the HarDOr Commissioners that
there was no slip unoccupied and that If there
was, our steamer was not adapted to landing
therein. We asked that a slip be built for us,
and stated that We would alter the boat to nit a
slip, and that such boats as we should there
after build or acquire would be made to con-
form thereto.
We next applied for the upper or street end
berth on the south side OF Mission pier /, occu-
pied by oceaD-going ships Of The Hawain line
This was refused We were then assigned the
hulk head landing Mission piers 1 and 2. On
investigator this was declined by the company,
for the reason that both sides thereof are occu-
pied by ships whose yards and rigging would
be serious menace 10 The safety of passenger
boats during rough and stormy weather.
The Davle Company then goes on TO
prove that it has been paying big prices
for poor accommodations, and has other
wise been imposed upon by the Commits
siOners.
The question of the possibility of COM
netting railroad trying 10 secure an en-
trance 10 san Francisco is then reviewed,
and the letter closes by stating that
This company occupies an analogous position
and is entitled 10 central location Dy reason
of the business it has doue. and the accommoda-
ton il has been to the public cannot be success

KNOWLEDGE

Decidedly Shaky.

A trembling hand, an uncertain step, fdgetiness, indicated by restless shifting from one place or posture to another, usually mental annoyance at unexpected noises, are among the indications of extreme nervousness, These seem triding, but the health of men and woman in this condition is decidedly shaky," liable to be over thrown disastrously by causes which the vigorous might defy. To fortify the nervous system, general vigor must through the medium of rein forced digestion, and a renewal of an impaired power of sleeping at night, be raised to healthful standard. A guarantee of this is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which re-establishes digestion, bile secretion and the habit of body on a permanently regular basis, thus renewing that bodily equilibrium, which is followed by a gain of strength and nerve tranquility. For kidney complaint, rheumatism, neuralgia, and as preventive of the
 first attack or subsequent return of malarial disorders, this medicine is without peer, Thrice daily take a wlneglassful.

Rich Placer Mines.

Henry Dunn came in from Cargo Muchacho, Sunday, where he and Frank Darling own a placer claim, next adjoining that of the King Solomon mines. In January last, with the help of another man they began sinking a shaft on the claim. At the depth of 40 feet they struck the pay streak which paid very well. In drifting on the bedrock, they found richer ground, and coarser gold. In ten days the three men took out $9S2, part of which Mir. D. had with him Sunday. It was all very coarse, clean gold. One nugget weighed $42.90. This speaks we'll for the placer mines within 12 miles of Yuma. MT. D. is an old miner, and thinks that the section where he is mining will yet turn out a large amount of gold. It is found almost anywhere in the soil, there being no regular wash or gravel. The large nugget was found some five feet above the pay streak. He also believes that there must be a rich quartz vein near by their placer claims. At the bottom of their shaft they have a we'll of very fine OI1re cold water
