Sloop Restless, With a Pleasure
Party, Is Missing.
SHE LEFT PORT ON MONDAY
Have Returned With News OF
the Lost Craft.

Santa Barbara. Cal. July 1s.-The
sloop Restless Is. reported lost OF Santa
Cruz island with 16 persons on board.
Last Monday a party Of young people
left port for a pleasure trip to the ISL

in the morning and made very slow
progress as long as II was in sight, be-
ing plainly visible at o'clock In the
afternoon. A brisk breeze was blowing
and II is not known whether anything
was the matter with her at that time.
The party was expected back two days
ago. and last night friends of the party
became uneasy about her return.
This morning Fred Forebush, port in
spectcr. whose son Is on board the sloop
and Mr.. Pratt started a search party.
This evening the parents OF the persons
on board the Restless are at the wharf
anxiousiy watching for the searchers
but. no news coming. they returned
home disappointed. The searching par
~ was expected back this evening II the
Restless was found. but at $40 D. m

DEALS WITH SURPRISING RIOTS
New Army Regulations VIII Deal With
such Disorders.

Washington, ID. c.. July le.-The Chi
cago riots of a year ago may prove a
lever by which the world over unruly
public demonstrations. whether occo-
stoned by the grievances of organized
labor or promoted by political antag-
onisms. Will speedily become thing of
the past. Those who have read advance
proofs Of the new army regulations. now
In press, and especially that chapter re-
lating to the movements OF officers and
men In dealing with mobs. are free In
their expressions OF opinion that. with
the regulations once I'm force. the pros
poets OF riots and turbulence on large
scale In this country will be reduced To
a minimum. II is understood that this
particular section was entirely drawn
by Major General Nelson a. Niles. and
that IL is based upon his Chicago expe-
riences OF last year. and to which he has
given considerable thought and study.
Nearly every foreign minister resident
at the capital has already put In an APP
plication for a copy OF the regulations.
TO be forwarded as a courtesy TO his
home government. and II is not unlikely
that the American regulations before al
luded to may be adopted by France and
also by Italy. Up to this time Germany
has had the credit OF the best army reg
ulations dealing with the suppression OF
riots aud threatening demonstrations.

Joseph is now fat and bulky and

OF being banished TO Yellowstone Park.

band still have their claims pending
