The Survivors of the San Benito Wreck
Are Safe.
POINT ARENA, Cal, Nov. 23.-With
bowling stt rm, q pouring rain and
amid boiling sea, the rescuing
steamer Weeott got boat with great
difficulty and at great risk to the
wrecked steamer San Benito, which
went ashore early Sunday morning.
After several hours of hard work, dur
ing which the occupants of the res
cuing boat were at imminent risk OF
capsizing and drowning, the rescuers
managed to make the wreck and rescue
the surviving members OF the crew,
who were still olinging to the wrecked
steamer.
All of those still on board were taken
off and transferred to the steamer
Weeott. There were % of the crew
still remaining on the wreck. and the
lives of all were saved. After being
taken to the Weeott they were again
transferred to the Point Arena and
taken to Mendocino, while the steamer
Weeott proceeded to Eureka.
The names of the rescued men can
not be procured until tine men were
landed. OF the total crew of 43 men,
35 were saved and eight drowned while
trying to effect landing in the surf
In small boats.
The wrecked steamer remains In the
same position as last night, but she
will undoubtedly prove total loss.

Hungarians, with the exception of the
women and babies engaged in the fight
last night. 1t was the bloodiest battle
of the year around the river front and
Columbus-street districts. Fully 40
men were from start to finish engaged
in the terrible encounter. At least 20
persons were more or less seriously
injured.
The fight started on the street be-
twesn James Carter anil John Sprends
over trivial matter. Carter jostled
Sprends in passing, which led to angry
words, aud later to the fight. Other
men soon came upon the scene, among
whom were friends of both combat.
ants, and within few minutes there
was throng OF fighting and cursing
men armed with knives and clubs,
which were used with bloody effect.
When the police arrived many OF the
participants in the battle had fed, but
a number who were unconscious or too
badly injured to escape were taken to
the police station. The others were
removed in ambulances to the hos
pitfalls. 1t is said there is a broken
head today in nearly every house on
the hill.

of D'Asonval, referred TO recently. The
current used was an alternating one,
and it was found that animals sub

and that death resulted mostly from
caused by the sudden stop

the animal recovered completely. In
no case was there any physiological

were mechanical LESSONS, in themselves.

by electricity should be treat

that the electrician should
make himself acquainted with the prop

fects Of electric shock.

DULL TIMES IN ENGLAND.

nrttish Exports and Imports Have Fallen

An English paper, the Manchester

European countries, without regard to
their tariff policies. The aggregate
loss in the export trade this wear. as
compared with the first nine months
of 1892, is given most $50, 600. .Oco.
But the falling off / !. imports is much
greater still, amounting TO $4,000, 200,
showing that dull times had prevented
the Eritish from buying since they
could not sell. This falling of in Brit

months gives one good reason why

stocks of raw cotton that are available.

SEATTLE, Nov. 22.-News reached
this city late tonight from Skykomish,

indicates that the Skykomish river is

invaded the homes of ranchers. One
instance is given where a woman
waded half mile with a baby in her
arms, through snow three feet deep, to
escape the water. Houses have been
swept away. The river in its mad
light is carrying big trees, hencoops.
