VESSELS PLUNDERED.
The Pilot Boat America and Bark
Sonoma Are Broken
Into.

Captain ("Little'O Jordan of the pilot
boat America was an angry man yester-
day. When he reached the boat, which is
being repaired at Main-street wharf, he
found waterfront thieves had rified the
cabin. They got away with fine pair of
marine glasses and pair OF trousers. He
does not mss the pantaloons very much,
but he does miss the S11 that was in the
rght-hand pocket. The same gang of
pick pockets attempted to break into the
cabin of the bark Sonoma, but the cap
tain awoke and they at once dec amped
Eighteen days ago the schooner Robert
Levers and the barkentine Newsboy
sailed within a few hours of each other
from Honolulu for the port of San
Francisco. There was said to be bet OF
$500 on the race, and whether that is so or
not considera bic money will change hands
in this City on the result. The Robert
Levers got in early yesterday and the
Newsboy followed her in during the after
noon. 1t va an exciting contest, as both
vessels were in company over the entire
200O- mile course, and the Levers only beat
the barkentine by six hours.
The American ship Benjamin SewelI,
from Shanghai for New York, was re-
ported at the Merchants Exchange yes-
terday as having put into Singapore in
distress. Her rudder was sprung, the
windlass strained and there were other
minor damages the repairing of which
would detain her some time.
The British ship Pass of Balmaha,
which was caught in heavy gale off the
Horn and had to put into Port Stanley,
has been damaged more than at first sup,
posed. Her cargo, for Victoria, B. c.,
will be discharged into another vessel,
which will take it to its destination, and
the Balmaha will go back to England for
repairs.
The schooner Volant is still lying at
Howard street wharf, as the Russian Con-
sui still refuses to grant her a clearance.
The vessel was to take a party of mission
aries to Siberia and a quantity OF ''trade"
was to go along. Were it not for the mer-
Chandise there would be no trouble, but as
the case stands the Consul insists that the
schooner must 60 10 port of entry. This
will take the party TO VladivostoS, or Just
1900 miles out of their way. 1t is the at
tempt to get out of this dilemma that is
keeping the Volsnt in San Francisco.
The merchandise the missionaries are
