Peri1ous Voyage to Port, During

SAN Francisco, Aug. 3.-The British
ship Cambrian Chieftain, supposed to
have been lost en- route TO Coquimbo,
and on which So per cent. was paid sew
eral weeks ago FOR reinsurance, is re-
ported safe in barbor at Taltal, Chile.
A letter from Captain Thomas was re-
ceived here to-day.
Several weeks ago the British ship Dee,
from San Francisco, arrived at VAL
paraiso, having ON board the wife and
child of Captain Thomas and several of
the crew Of the Cambrian Cheftain.
They reported the Cambrian Chieftain as
probably lost. During terrific gale the
vessel had been dismasted. Just at
nighrfall the Dee sighted the Cam brian
Chieftain in distress, and succeeded in
getting boat to her. This boat rescued
Mrs. Thomas, her child and several of
the Cambrian'S crew. a second boat
from the Dee was sent back for Captain
Thomas and the others of the crew. The
gale Increased and in the darknes the
Dee lost all trace of her own reScuing
crew or the Cambrian Chieftain. When
dav broke nothing OF them was to be
seen. 1t was known that all of the Cam
brian Chieftain's boats had been
smashed, and there was thought to be no
hope tor the men who remained on
board or for the rescuing party from the
Dee.
The second chapter of this thrilling
tale of the sea now comes from Captain
Thomas. He reports that the gallant res
cuers from the Dee reached his vessel in
safety. When dawn came and the Dee
was nowhere in sight despair seized this
little band OF sailors. But finally, when
the pumps were sounded and it was
found that the vessel was making very
little water, hope came back to them.
Jury masts We're rugged, and at last the
Cambrian Chieftain was got under slow
way But heavy blows were encoun-
tered and several times Captain Thomas
had to take in nearly all sail in order TO
save his masts.
Another peril was yet to be encoun-
tered, however. During the ships slow
progress toward the South American
coast nearly all her provisions had been
consumed, and it became necessary to
put the crew on short allowance, and
later on very short allowance. When
the Cambran Chieftain reached Taltal
the sailors had just strength enough to
shorten sail and drop anchor. They
then sank down on the decks exhausted,
waiting for the shore boats to come.
Much of the vessels cargo of general
merchandise was jettisoned during the
storm that dismantled her.

FRAUDULENT CERTIFICATES.
An Extensive Swindle to Land
Chinese,

An Extensive SwIEQl6 TO Lana

DENVER, Aug. 3.-Deputy Collector
of Internal Revenue Kabis has discovered
that numerous certificates of registration
for Cinnamon were fraudulently OBJ
tanned at Rock Springs, Wyo.. being ac-
companied with photographs taken by
photographer at that place from pictures
sent from China. General Kabis was
told that Gun Wah, a merchant at Port
land, Or, would pay $500 apiece for the
certificates. as he was bringing China
men in from British Columbia. 1t is be-
heved the discovery will lead to unearth-
ing an extensive swlndle, the head
quarters of which are in Portland.
Twenty-Five of the Cinnamon for
whom certificates of residence were
issued at Rock Springs could not be
found. Collector New said: This is a
very serious matter in my opinion, and 1
have referred it to the Department Of
Justice, and have forwarded a report 10
the Commissioner of the Revenue De-
partment, with the recommendation that
strict and searching investigation be in
stituted. / have no idea what will be
done in this matter; l do not think the
law will be suspended, but it may lead to
the appointment of special agents to
thoroughly sift the whole thing, for if the
fraud has been practiced elsewhere, as it
certainly has in Wyoming, it may be
quite extensive and serious"

LYONS, Aug. 3.-There were few people
around Palais Justice when the trial of
Santo, the assassin of President Carnot,
was resumed to-day. The prisoner
seemed even more defiant than yesterday,
and took his seat with a mocking smile
upon his face. LIE Blanc, fellow prls-
oner with Caesario at Marseilles. testified
that Csesaro told him he intended to kill
President Carnot, probably at Lyons
when the Chief Magistrate visited that
city.
"That is lie," interrupted Cpsario,
excitedly. 81 never told you or anyone
else about my plans"
LIE Blanc continued: "C9sario con-
fessed to me he was designated by lot"
"That is untrue" shrieked Cesario.
"How untrue?" asked LIE Blanc, turn
ing to the prisoner.
Il said to you after you had made that
remark, but who would be so bold as to
kill President Carnot? ] saw him in
Pa-is surrounded by troops and the po-
lce.' You answered, he would be
chosen by lot.'"
There was great excitement in the
court while the prisoner and LIE Blanc
were speaking to each other.
Later Leblanc said, "CSesario told me
he had often seen King Hubert in the
streets, but, he added, that to kill him it
would be necessary to have "a rifle and
shoot him from the street, as he would be
surrounded by soldiers.
THAT is lie," shouted the prisoner,
'I was never chosen to kill President
Carnot Moreover, absolute liberty of
action prevails among the anarchists
The Prosecuting Attorney reviewed the
details of the trial and demanded that the
Jury do not hesitate to do it's duty,
M. Debreuil, for the defense, made an
appeal for the prisoner.
At noon the jury retired, and after an
absence OF fifteen minutes announced a
verdict of Guilty, without extenuating
circumstances"
Presiding Judge Breuillac then pro-
nounced sentence of death by the guillo-
tine.
Caesario exclaimed: "viva la reyolu-

In spite of the prisoners defiant atti-
tude his habitual smile disappeared when
sentenced was pronounced.

asked that the Presiding Judges charge

ADJUTANT-GENERAI. rARsNEY.
He Came Near Being the Victim of an
ASSaSSfn'S Bullet

| He Came Near Being the Victim of an
Assassin's Bullet.
| KANSAS CITY, Aug. 3.-Adjutant-Ge Gem
eral Tarsney of Colorado, who has been
here for some days seeking to encompass
the arrest of one of the gang who tarred
and feathered him, came near being the
victim of an assassn's bullet at the Union
Depot in this city tonight. 1t was one of
the closing scenes in the dramatic play
growing out of the Colorado tragedy dur
ing the recent strike, and his consequent
ferretlng out and arrest of j. Il. Wilson,
one OF the leaders of the marauders.
Several days ago General Tarsney To-
Gated Wilson near Nevada, Mo-, and by
neat bit OF strategy, and with the assist
ance of Detective Peterson of Colorado,
succeeded In getting him TO Kansas City.
Wilson was positively identified by Tars-
ney as being The ringleader OF the mob
that tarred and feathered him. After
some trouble Tarsney secured the proper
requisitlon papers. and the start for Col
orado was arranged for this evening.
Z. Q. Collins, an eX-under deputy, was
with Wilson during the strike question,
and who is believed to be the man who
carried the feathers on the eventful night,
| came TO town yesterday, and, as he after
ward told reporter, was bent upon lib
Grating Wilson.
! Shortly before the departure of the
| evening Union Pacific's train tonight
Tarsney, Wilson and Peterson vera
driven from the jail to the depot in a
closed carriage. Ever since coming to
town Tarsney has travelled under an as
sulned name, and has been in constant
| fear OF violence.
! Arriving at the depot this evening Coll
Inns was the first man the party met. He
quickly stepped toward them, with
salutation to Wilson, and at the same
! time placing his hand on his hip-pocket,
| Collins made an effort to draw Wilson to
one side. Peterson in an instant had
| pushed the intruder aside feeling for his
weapon. With a curse. Collins drew
away, then turning toward Iarsney,
made as if to strike him. The General
reached for his hip-pocket, but before
either man could lift hand Peterson had
| stepped between them, and was starting
the trio for their train. In the meantime
| quite crowd had collected, and great ex-
element prevailed. HurryiDg into their
car, Wilson was quickly strapped TO
seat, while Tarsney nervously took a seat
near by, and looked anxiously for the
| signal to start. 1t soon came. and the
party i'll time resumed their natural state.
Collins, i'll the rush, had been lost. 1t
was afterward learned that he had Sc
cured a ticket over the Santa Fe road,
ana left on that train a few minutes later,
believing Tarnsey had gone via that
route.

ST. Louis, Aug. 3.-An unsuccessful
attempt was made last night to hold up
train No. 3 on the st. Louis and San
Francisco Road. The train left the Union
Depot at st. Louis at $50 P. NJ. IN charge
of Conductor Mansfield.
About $50 O'Clock, just before the
train reached Eureka, thirty miles from
the city, Wells-Fargo Express Messen-
ger Ferguson started to go from the car
in which he was at work to the one I'M
mediately in the rear, when he was con-
fronted at the door by masked man
with drawn revolver, who ordered him
to throw up his hands.
Ferguson drew his revolver and COM
menced shooting. The rob ber returned
the fire and sent one bullet through the
messengers shoulder and another
through his hand. He then jumped from
the train and escaped. He is undoubt-
edly wounded. He made no effort to Sc
cure any of the money in the car. He
was probably scared Oft by the brave re-
sistance of the express messenger.
The injured man was taken TO Pacific,
six miles west of Eureka, where his
wounds were dressed and his car trans
ferred to another man.
A most remarkable feature of the at
tempted robbery was the escape of the
entire train and 1873 passengers from abso-
ute destruction. Desperadoes, who were
undoubtedly accomplices of the fellow
With whom Express Messenger Fergu-
son had the fight forced open a car OF
dynamite on a side track below Eureka,
ami stole two big dynamite cartridges,
intended for heavy blasting. Each cart
ridge was capable of tearing TO pieces
tons OF solid rock. They were placed by
the dastardly bandits on the rails, the in
tention being to destroy the train and
plumber the richly laden express car and
probably the passengers.
When the forward wheels of the engine
rolled on the cartridges there was a ter
rife ex plosioD, which wrecked the ma
chine. The entire train was severely
shaken, windows broken, and packages
of letters thrown from the boxes in the
mail car. The explosion tore great hole
in the earth, broke the rails from their
tastenings and flung ties in every direc-
ton. 1t tore open one side of the dyna-
mite car, and exposed tC view tons OF the
powerful explosive, yet for some unac-
countable reason this great mass, with
energy enough to blow city Oft the face
of the earth, did not explode.

a CORONER IN A oUANDARY.
Two Husbands Claiming the Body of
Dead Woman.

Two Husbands Claiming the Body of a
Dead Woman.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3. = Two husbands
claiming the body of dead wife, one
identifying the remains by a photograph,
and the other seeking to establish his
claim by describing every article found
in her baggage, is the dilemma which
now confronts the Coroner of this city.
On April 18th woman who arrived in
Chicago over the Santa Fe Railroad went
direct to a cheap hotel. Five minutes
after reaching the hotel she fell dead. In
her possession was found letter signed
Mrs. Lang, from San Francisco to Phila-
delphia. On her trunk was found the
name b. Sampson. Coroner McHale en-
deavored to find the woman's relatives in
Philadelphia, but failing, caused the
body to be Inferred in Waldheim Gene
terry. Soon after the burial Leon Lang of
1869 Aspen street, Philadelphia, came to
Chicago and declared that he thought the
woman was his wife, who had been for
two years in California for her health.
Mr.. Lang had a picture of his wife, which
strongly resem bled the dead woman, but
when it came to describing her baggage
he could not tell the appearance OF a
single article in the Coroner's possession,
and that official, not being satisfied, de-
clined to surrender the baggage.
Recently one B. Sampson of Tucson,
Arizona, a well-known and wealthy resi-
dent of that Territory, wrote McHale
that the woman was his wife, and that
they had been married ten years. He
said she had started from San Francisco
in April for the East, and was to take a
voyage to Calcutta, India. She had writ
ten him last on April 18th, saying she
had met lady on the cars, and they were
to travel together to the seaboard. When
he did not hear again Mr.. Sampson grew
worried, and began an Investigation. He
learned of the death of the woman in
Chicago, and concluded she had been his
wife. He prepared to recover his wife's
property. Coroner McHale was relieved
when the Westerner identified the trunk
and it's contents, even to bottle of tooth
powder. He mentioned note paper in
the trunk, 1t was there, printed in his
name, and with the insignia of the Grand
Army of the Republic upon it. Mr..
Sampson used the paper as Commander
of the Union Veteran Association of Ari-
zona. 1t was found just where he de-
scribed. To clinch bis claim he sent
photograph of Mrs. Sampson, and noti-
fed the Coroner to send the remains to
Tucson. The picture had no resem blance
to the dead woman. No one could con-
slider them for an instant as HkeneSseS of
the same individual.
The Coroner was in quandary. If the
deceased was Mrs. Lang. then how came
she with the property of Mrs. Sampson
If she was Mrs. Sampson, why did she
not resemble her own photograph. How
came she with ticket bearing the sigma
ture of Lang? Or being either of the two
women, what has become of the other !?
These problems Mr.. McHale is wrestling
with, nor has he yet mastered them.
Meanwhile both claimants are increasing
their endeavors to secure the remains and
the DrODertV.
