johnson did not go to British Columbia
yesterday, although the Romulus Was
allowed to proceed to sea. Instead he is
now in Jail with HendrIcksen. the boat
man.
Il regard this seizure as one of great i'm
portance," said Surveyor Kilburn yester-
day. "FOr some time we have been sus-
picious of the Romulus and / have no
doubt that large quantities of opium have
been brought into California by her.
Until yesterday, however, it had been ini-
possible TO verify our suspicious. The
treaty of this Governmen ent with Germany
provides that no German vessel shall be
searched without first notifying the Ger
man Consul. We have thus always been
compelled 10 show our hand and in some
manner the smugglers have been warned.
1 wish to publicly thank Inspectors
Sprague and Casey for the clever work
which they did in the matter"
How about the man who jumped over
board. Mr.. Kiburn? Are you searching
for his body?"
Yes" he replied smiingly, "but not in
find his body walking around on / IS accus-
toned legs He cannot get away. and it
is only question of a few days before he
will be lodged beside Johnson"
+ 1t was learned that the name of the
swimmer is Patterson, and his usual
whereabouts is we'll known. A rumor
that he was drowned is scOffed al by those
who know him to be a magn ficent swim
mer. and by the officers, who say they
heard him getting out of the water. but
one being on the ship and the other on the
pier they were unable to catch him. 1t is
possible. of course. that Patterson was
drowned, but Inspector Casey says he
fired high above his head, so that the man
was not wounded.
The capture of johnson is causing great
delight at the CuStom-house. He is be-
lieved to be an old offender and at the
head of gang of smugglers who have
been working under cover of foreign flags.
Hendrlcksen seems to have been the
paw used to draw the chestnuts out of the
fire, and his capture is not looked upon as
one of great Importance. The hoatman
says n man offered him 81 30 on Thursday
to row to the ROmulus and get a bundle
of clothes belonging 10 a fireman who had
left the ship. The sailor could not go at
the time. and persuaded HeDdricksen to
walt until late at night. But in another
manner will Hendricksen prove of great
value. He is positive OF the identity of
johnson and Patterson, and will be a wit
ness for the Government.
The matter will be more thoroughly in
vestigated upon the return of the ROmulus

James G. Shyne tired of life, so he put an

On Thursday night he retired as usual,
but got up several times during the night

at an early hour and went downstairs to

down half an hour later she discovered
the body of her son lying in the back room

singular accident happened at the
power-house of the Ferries and Cliff House
Railroad Company at an early hour yes
terday morning.
1t was fortunately near the hour for
stopping the cars for the night when the
mishap occurred and the machinery was
not running at its full power.
About 1920 o'clock the engineer in
charge heard a loud report, which caused
him TO Immediately stop the engine. Upon
investigation it was discovered that the
immense main drving-gear wheel had suf-
fered complete fracture. The wheel is a
monster in siZ-, being fourteen feet in
diameter and over two feet across its face.
Just what caused the break no one of
ths officials seems to know. One of the
gentlemen in charge said that the wheel
had been in use for several years and was
always examined thoroughly at stated in-
tervals. No evidence of weakness had de-
veloped at any time before.
There was no danger attached to the
accident, as the wheel revolves slowly and
the engineer had ample time To stop the
machinery before anything more serious
occurred.
OF course the various cars out at the
time came to a standstill, and those over
the hill were run into the car heds. One

Although the seizure was good one yet
the officers did not believe the prisoner
amounted to much. as far as catching a
smuggler goes. They wanted the man
who lowered the opium over the side and
the one who jumped overheard. 1t was be-
lieved that one Charles johnson was the

Romulus as an OileT, but when an officer
asked for him yesterday morning the
boats people said he was not N board
SO no more attention was paid to the
