TEMpEsT-TossED,
The Overdue Ship Cambrian ChieftaiI
Turns Up Safe.

The Overdue Ship Cambrian Chieftain
Turns Up Safe.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 3.-The British
ship Oambrian Chieftain, supposed to
have been lost en- route to Coquimbo,
and on which S5 per cent was paid sev-
eral weeks ago for reinsurance, ia report.
ed safe in harbor at Teltal, Chi lie. A
letter from Captain Thomas was re-
ceived here today. Several weeks ago
the British ship Dee, from San Francis-
CO, arrived at Valparaiso, having on
board the wife and ch lid of Captain
Thomas and several of the crew of the
Cambrian Chieftain. They reported her
as probably lost. During terrific gale
the vessel was dismasted. Just at night.
fall the Dee sighted the Csmbrisn Chief
tain 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 rest of the crew. The
gale increased and in the darkness the
Dee lost all trace of her own reacuing
crew and OF the Cambrian Ohieftain.
When day broke nothing of them was to
be seen. 1t WAS known that all Of the
Cambrisn'a boats had been emashed,
and there was thought to be no hope
for the men who had 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
rescuers from the Dee reached his ves-
sci 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 were rigged
and at last the Cambrian Ohieftain was
got under slow way. But heavy blows
were encountered and several times
Captain Thomas had to take in nearly
all sail in order to save his masts.
Another peril was yet to be encount-
cred, however. During the ships slow
progress toward the South American
coast nearly ali her provisions had been
consumed and it became necessary to
put the crew ON short allowance, and
later on very short allowance. When
the Cambrian reached Taltal, the sailors
had just strength enough to shorten sail
and drop anchor. They then sank down
on the decks exhausted and wsited for
the shore boats to come.
Much Of the vessels cargo Of general
merchandise was jettisoned during the
storm that dismantled her.

whether it was the purpose Of the ap.

but the Southern Pacific was not

said White, whether the company should
have been put into the bill, in view OF
the unsettled condition OF the govern

roads, but against the stockholders. The
question arose, he said, whether it
would not be better to let the matter
remain unsettled until the governments

wrestling with the cases of eight Chinese
employed as servants on the U. 8. s.
Charleston. who ask to be regiatered un-
der the recent Chinese exclusion act.
During all the time the Chinese in this

new law the Charleaton's coolies were
serving on that vessel in Brazilian
waters. The time for registration hav-
ing long since elapsed, Revenue Col

leave loop hole for hundreds of Chinese
who might claim to have served in
American ships during the period sof

WHOSE WIFE WAS sHE7

I've Mon Claiming the Body OF Dead
Woman in Chicago.
CHICAGO, Aug. 3.-Two husbands
claiming the body of q dead wife, one
Identifying the remains by Q photo
graph, and the other seeking to estab-
Iish his claim by describing every arti-
Gle 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 cheap hotel.
Five minutes after reaching the hotel
she fell dead. In her possession was
found letter signed Mrs. Lang, sent
from San Francisco to Philadelphia. On
her trunk was found the name B. Samp-
son. Coroner NcHale endeavored to
find the woman's relatives in Philadel-
phia, but failing caused the body to be
inferred in Waldheim cemetery. Soon
after the burial. Leon Lang of 1869
Aspen street, Philadelphia, came to
Chicago and declared he thought the
woman was his wife, who had been for
two years in California for her health.
Mr.. Lang had picture of his wife.
which strongly resembled the dead
woman, but when it came to describing
her baggage he could not tell the ap-
pearsnce OF a single article in the coro-
nsr's possession, and, that official not
being satiefied, he declined to surrender
the baggage.
Recently B. Sampson, OF Tucson,
Ariz., q we'll known and wealthy resi-
dent OF the territory, wrote McHale that
the woman was his wife and that they
had been married 10 years. He said she
had started from San Francisco on trip
to the east. She had written him last
on April 18th, saying she had met lady
on the cars and they were to travel to.
gether to the seaboard. When he did
not hear again Mr.. Sampson grew wor.
ried and began an investigation. He
learned OF the death of the woman in
Chicago. and concluned she had been his
wife. He prepared to recover his wife's
property. Coroner McHale was relieved
and its contents, even to bottle of
paper in the trunk. 1t was there, print
ed in his name and with the insignia Of
thu G. A. F.. upon it. Mr.. Sampson

To clinch his claim he cent photograph
of Mrs. Sampson and notified the cor
oner to send the remains to Tucson.
The picture had no resemblance to the
dead woman. No one could coneider
them for an instant as likenesses OF the
same individual.
The coroner was in aquandary. II the
deceased was Mrs. Lang, then how came
che with the property of Mrs. Sampson?
If she was Mrs. Sampson, why did nhs
not resemble her own photograph? How
came nhe with ticket bearing the sig
nature of Lang? Or being either of the
two women, what has become of the
other? These problems McHele is
wrestling with. nor has he yet mastered
them. Meanwhile both claimants are
their endeavors to secure the
remains and the property.

KANSAS Cry, Aug. 3.-Adjutant- Gen
eral Tarsney Of. Colorado. vino has been
here for come days seeking to com.
pass the arrest of one of the gang who
tarred and feathered him, came near
being the victim of an assassin's bullet
at the Union depot today. 1t was one
of the closing scenes in the dramatic
play growing out of the Colorado trag-
edy during the recent strike, and his
consequent ferreting out and arrest
OF ]. R. Wilson. one Of the leaders OF
the maurauders.
Several days ago General Tarsney To-
Gated Wilson near Nevada. No., and by
a neat bit of strategy and with the as
eistance of Detective Peterson of Color
ado succeeded in getting him to Kansas
City. Wilson was positively identified
by Tarsney as being the ringleader of
the mob that tarred and feathered him.
After some trouble Tarsney secured the
proper requisition papers and the start
for Colorado was arranged for this even
ing. @. @. Collins, an ex-deputy under
Wilson in Colorado during the strike
trouble, and who is believed to be the
man who carried the feathers on the
eventful night, came to town yesterday,
and as he afterwards told q reporter,
was bent ON liberating Wilson.
Shortly before the departure OF the
evening Union Pacific train, Tarsney,
Wilson and Petersen were driven from
the Jail to the depot in closed carriage.
Ever since coming to town Tarsney has
travelled under an assumed name and
has been in constant fear OF violence.
Arriving at the depot this evening, Col.
lins was the first man the party met.
He quickly stepped toward them.
With a 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. Petersen in an in
slant had pushed the intruder aside,
feeling for his weapon. With q curse,
Collins drew away, then turning
towards Tarsuey, he made as ii
to strike him. The general reached
for his hip pocket, but before either
man could lit hand Petersen had
stepped between them and was starting
the trio for their train. In the mean
time quite crowd had collected and
great excitement pre- vailed. Hurrying
into their car, Wilson was quickly
strapped to seat, while Tarsney ner-
vouely took q seat near by and looked
anxiously for the signal to start. 1t
soon came and the party in time re-
sumed its natural state.
Collins, in the rush, had been lost.
1t was afterward learned he had secured
ticketover the Santa Fe road and left
on that train few minutes later, be-
lieving Tarsney had gone via that route.

Discussion OF Representative Brick.
ner's Bill in COMMITTEES.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-The house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce devoted an hour today to the
discussion OF the sleeping car system.
For text it had Representative Brick
ner's bill, which was introduced during
the Chicago strike, and which provides
that after January /. 1896, railroad com.
panies engaged in interstate commerce
shall own or control by lease all sleep
ing cars used on their roads or branches
operated or controlled by them, and fix
ing penalty of $40 day for failure to
comply in each case. Several members
spoke in favor of the principles en-
bodied in the bill. Members of the
committee believe a measure of thas
kind will be reported which will include
dining cars and ali palace cars, but the
time will doubtless be extended to 1895,
with q view to giving the companies
time to adjust their business to the
change.
