STORY OF THE MESS BOY
Graphic Account of How Passengers
on the COlima Perished
Those In the Steerage Were Cooped Up by
the Falling of the Deck Load and
Went Down With the Ship

SAN FRANCISCO, June 13.-Robert
Gonzales, a mess boy of the lost Colirna
who arrived here this morning on the
Colon in company with Fred Johnson. a
sailor. gives a vivid description of the
fight for life made by the helpless women
and children when the ship went down.
when the ship began to rock and roll
the passengers in the steerage did not
seem to think much was the matter. The
rolling of the ship became more violent,
and after while the boatswain came to
the companionway and told us to get out.
Even hte passengers did not seem to un-
derstand that anything was serious and
went out slowly. l saw two or three OF
them go to the companionway and come
back. but | did not know why at the
time. AS the boat continued to roll and
the water began pouring in. ran to the
ladder leading to the deck and started to
60 up. After had reached the middle
of tho ladder saw why the others h ad
come back. They could not get out. The
lumber and other stuff on the deck had
shifted to such an extent that the COM
panionway hatch was covered up. They
were like rats in a barrel. They could not
get out and had to wait there until the
water came in on them. Being familiar
with the ship ] ran through TO the kltch-
ell ard crawled up the dummy waiter 10
the pantry above. From there | made
my way into the main cabin, which then
contained two or three feet OF water. AS
| passed through the cabin [ saw several
women trying to get upstairs through
the hatchways, but the water kept some
of them from leaving their statcrocnls,
and others were unable to get up the
stairs IN account of the stuff that covered
the opening on deck. We tried to save
the two women in the boat with lis, but
when she capsized we had to scramble for
ourselves. The last saw Of them they
were clinglng to an empty bucket, which
held them up only a second, and they
went down without cry or struggle"

THE DOCTORS ALL WANT HIM
1an Dying in Denver Whose Body vii
Be Valuable

- linn Oyiny III Denver whose BODY VIII
Be Valuable
DENVER. June l3.-Maud Pencera, a
young male Swiss, has been dying here
for two years from what the doctors pro-
nounce to be the most remarkable case OF
multiple-sarcoma ever heard of. At first
it was simple osteo-sarcoma, humorous
growth on she bone. which is not uncom-
mon. Then bony bumps appeared on the
ear. and on four different occasions they
were cut away by the surgeons. Next his
whole right side became a mass of bony
humps. and on March 18th the surgeons
cut off the flesh. bone and muscle from
behind his ear far down on his side.
After that opera ton the disease spread
all over his body. Yesterday $50 bony
knots were counted on him. From the
different amputatons pieces were sent to
Berlin, New York, Philadelphia and other
places, and the result has been that offers
have poured in on the only relative in
this country, brother in Cincinnati,
for the cadaver of Pencera. Bellevue
hospital of New York offers $1,000. That
was six weeks age. when Pencera was
conscious, and he imrlored his friends
to give him decent Christian burial.
Now he is near death. and there will be q
contest probably in the court for his
body.

FIRST TRIP OF THE ST. LOUIS
The American Vessel Does Herself Proud on
the Maiden XOXaQe

'"N F"'Na'Soh 'SoSSh DoCo iIcTSGlI fTUuu ON
the Maiden Voyage
SOUTHAMPTON, June 13.-The St.
Louis, the new palatial steamer which
has Just made successful maiden voyage
across the ocean, was docked at o'clock
this morning. The passage was de-
lightful one. The daily runs to the Scllly
isles were 314 344, 443, $40, 341. 344. 432 and
4l6 miles. For first trip this is con-
sidered excellent. The programme of the
entertainment on board included recita-
tions oy John Drew, Roland 3uckston,
and others. 1t was .remarkd that bat few
st. Louis people were on board. eight GER
tainly not being good representation.
The passengers join in speaking well of
the new ocean flyer and predict that she
will be one of the fastest and safest
steamers plying between New York and
European ports.
Mr.. Town, the representative of the
Cramps, says: II am thoroughly satis-
fled that the vessel is in every way as
good as we could wish to build, and the
trip has proved tnat we have carried out
our contract
DR.. Z. Dovecchi of San Francisco, in
speaking OF the steamer, said: II do
not want any better boat until Am erica
has one named San Francisco
Captain Bland said: "Yes; we had an
uneventful trip. The ST. Louis was de-
signed for comfort rather than speed. We
are not trying to break the record. Still,
we can go as fast as necessary. The chief
engineer tells me the engines are the
best adjusted and the best balanced he
has ever seen or had anything to do
with. We could easily have brought the
ship INTO port last night. but really we
were not in hurry

bassador at Washington, who was also a
passenger, said to an Associated Press

port in connection with the question re-
garding Canada and America or New
foundland, he said: "No; all American
matters are quiet. / deeply deplore the
death OF my friend. Secretary Gresham" "
Among the second cabin passengers
there was much complaint regarding the
table. The library donation by the city
Of St. Louis'is good one, but the donors
ought to complain of the binding, loose
leaves being found in many OF the books.
On Wednesday, when the passengers
filed in to dinne:, tney found bouquets
of carnations and souvenir badges at
their plates. A set of resolutions was
then drawn up and signed by all the
passengers.

The drafts were made payable TO one Or

varying from 500 to $500.
The pair victmized almost every jew

z CHICAGO, June 12.-Daniel s. Stewart
reached Chicago last evening from New
York whittier he had been to arrange for
the championship battle between Jim
Corbett ana Bob Fitzsimmons. 1.-The
Florida Athletic club accepted my prop
Osition to move their concern to Dallas, -
Stewart SAID, II produced copy of the
statutes showing that there is no law in
the state against pug ilistc contests. and
told them If the cub was transferred
to Dallas I must be elected president and
treasurer of The club. Dwyer, Vendigg
and friends thought this over and the re-
suit is that | was elected president and
treasurer of the Florida Athletic club and
the club 8 transferred to Dallas.
Il am now on my way to Dallas to
begin the construction of the amphi-
theater in which the fight will take place.
1t will be mammoth structure, built in
octagonai shape. There VIII be four en-
frances from the cardinal points of the
building. The seating capacity will be
40, 600. There will be $50 boxes with ten
chairs in each. The prices for boxes has
not been settled. but the admission will
be $40 with reserved seats $50. During
the week in which the fight viii take
place there will be fair in Dallas and
TO this there will be excursion rates from
ell the surrounding country. | have Sc
cured cheap rate from two eastern lines
which believe has never before been Sc
cured for similar event.
'Corbett and Fitzsimmons will meet
on Thursday, October 3ist. There viii
be one other contest, probably between
Dixon and Pli!nmer. There viii be no
carnival of four fights. The mill between
the little men will take place probably
the second day preceding the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons BATTLE
From what Stewart says there will be
no middle, light or welter weight fight,
about which so much has been said alnce
1t was settled that the great fight will
take place at Dallas. He does not in
tend that any of the multitudinous light,
middle and welter weights should get in
under cover OF the big show and there
will be but two-DiXon and Plimmer and
Fitzsimmons and Corbett. and Stewart
holds that these are enough and worth
the journey to see.
