Port Townsend, Wash, Dec. 13.-Th'
British ship Scottish Dales of Liverpool
brought into port by the steamer Be-
tina, from Ounalaska, partly disnnn-
tied, was bound from San Francisco
to Portland to load wheat for Europe.
On December 9Th the Scottish Dales
reached the Columbia river. During
the next three days she was knocked
about by the gale with n succession of
squalls which tore her sails into shat
ters and brought down the forcto;h
mast and upper yards. The frightened
crew wished to abandon the vessel
and take to the boats, but the captain
would not permit this. Later the of
ficers and crew mutinied. refusing to
obey the captains commands. and
again attempted to leave in the boats.
The captain armed himself, and sin
gIe-handed, forced all hands to remaia
on board. Several times the vessel
was close ashore and in imminent dan
ger of drifting on the rocks. Three
sailors were badly injured by the shift
ing of the ballast Yesterday the
Scottish Dales headed toward the
straits of Juan de Fuca. and In try
ing to launch n boat. n sailor was
dashed against the sides of the ship
and killed. the steamer Bertha took

ONE Of ths interesting subjects
Of future legislation will grow out Of
composition between steam and cleo
trio service in carrying express and
mail matter. It is to be doubted that
the electric railway companies will
wish to extend their business beyond
the single privilege of the passenger
service, and it is equally certain that
the steam railway and express COM
psnies will make a formidable opposi-
hon to such encroachment upon their
business. The results ought to oe
governed by considerations Of public
iuNexust and convenience.
