OVERDUE VESSELS ARRIVE.
Badly Battered British Banks,
Caught in a Storm Off the Horn,
Reach California.

San Francisco, Cal, Jan. 16.-Two
badly battered British vessels have made
port, one the ship Eaton Hall, 1873 days
from Cardiff, the other the bark Ell
lott, 1873 days from Leith. Both were
caught III the same severe storms off the
Horn during the first week in October
last and both were forced to put back
to Port Stanley, leaving there a month
later only day apart and making port
here on the same day.
The Eaton Hall, Capt. Louriston,
after two days of severe gales, on De-
tober J, ran into Il terrible blizzard off
the Horn. The snow, driven by the
wind, drifted on the decks and clogged
the rigging, making it dangerous even
to go on deck, while it was impossible to
see any distance from the ship. The
main topmast and back stays had been
carried away in the gale and during the
blizzard the bulwarks were crushed and
the deck houses started by the heavy
seas that swept the decks.
The Elliott had a somewhat similar eX-
perience only she Jared worse. Her
decks were constantly full of water and
the seas going clear over the vessel. She
was down on her beam ends until her
starboard rail was under water and her
cargo shifted. With her bulwarks
crushed, her deckhouse started, every
window broken and her cargo danger
ously shifted, she was picked No by
British man-Of-War and towed back to
Port Stanley, where she was obliged to
discharge a part of her coal cargo She
left there 4 day before the Eaton Hail,
arriving off the heads here just twenty
Tour hours ahead of that ship.

ator John Sherman, at the Union depot,
last evening. The veteran statesman
was on his way back to Washington
from Canton, where he had had con
ference with Mr.. Mckinley. After stat
ing that his position in the next cabinet
had been determined, Senator Sherman
said, in answer to a question:
Il think the United States govern
ment should not interfere with the Gl-
ban war, either to aid Ia its settlement
or DO anything which would make a
peaceful government of the island
charge of this country.
Il understand on high authority that
Prime Minister Canovas has outlined a
programme of governmental reforms
which will be applied both in Spain and
in Cuba These reforms will give the

Maxine Gomez Said to Have an Array of
$4,000.

New York, Jan 15.-News which, if
correct, is more important than any
since the death Of Maceo was received
in Cuban circles last night. 1t was
that the town Of Santa Clara,
sometimes called Villa Clara, had
fallen to the insurgent arms, burt that in
the charge which resulted in victory tie
intrepid cavalry leader, Quintin Ban
dera, was slain. Gomez. it was said, is
now pushing on toward Havana with an
army Of $4,000 men.
This news was not given out at the
Cuban junta 1t came from private
sources. 1t is not yet confirmed from
official sources, but that is not strange,
considering that the death of Ban
dera is a blow to the Cubans which
almost offsets the capture Of Santa
Clara. The first news of the death of
Maceo came in the same way, and it
was a long time before the truth broke
through the trocha of official denial.

receipts and expenditures for 1897,
showing deficit of 1897 900 now and a
prospect OF a state debt Of more than
$780, 600 a year from now. This condi-
ton is due to lavish appropriations by
the Legislature last winter. delinquency
of taxes, general increase of expenses,
and the fact that $4,000 held in the
treasury from direct war tax refund has
been used in building the soldiers mon
ument.
